Target Price:
MYR16.00
Recommendation:
Buy




Strong delivery yet again

3QFY16 results were in line, with the sequential improvement due to seasonality. Tenaga continues to be our top BUY pick for the sector and the market given its compelling valuation. Coal prices are rising, but not to the extent where Tenaga requires a tariff “surcharge”. Reiterate BUY with an unchanged MYR16.00 TP.

Clinches Pan Borneo job

Gamuda’s Pan Borneo Sarawak Highway job win will lift its outstanding construction orderbook by 6% to MYR8.7b. Total job wins FYTD of MYR8.2b has exceeded our expectation. We raise our FY16 job win forecast and FY17/18 net profit estimates by 3%/5%. Further earnings upside could emanate from additional job wins and stronger-than-expected property sales. Maintain BUY at an unchanged SOP-TP MYR5.65.

Recommendation:
Buy




Clinches TANAP EPCI works

We are positive on several fronts from this job win. This is SAKP’s first breakthrough into Europe, a testament of its operating capabilities and opens up new opportunities in the region. Also, the consistency in its replenishment orders (secured MYR3.1b new jobs to-date) reflects its bidding competitiveness and improving prospects in the industry. Unlocking the value of its gas assets remains high on its agenda. Signing several new, bigger GSAs over the next 12 months is a re-rating catalyst.

Recommendation:

Stable as a rock

Public Bank’s 2Q16 results were stable and within expectations as net profit expanded 5% YoY to MYR1.26b. Acknowledging a still challenging operating environment, the group is still on target to meet its KPIs, albeit at the lower end of estimates. We maintain our earnings forecasts and HOLD call, with an unchanged TP of MYR19.70.

A short-term blip

Profits and 1st interim gross DPU of 4.16sen fell short mainly due to higher borrowing costs. We lower FY16-18 earnings forecasts by –5% to -6%, and our DCF-TP by 5sen to MYR1.75 (WACC: 6.4%, terminal yield: 6.5%). With a narrowed upside, PavREIT is now a HOLD. Its 12-month forward gross DPU yield of 4.8% is also the lowest in the sector.

Recommendation:

Strong earnings priced in

Stronger 2Q16 net profit (+31% YoY, +6% QoQ) and dividend were in line, underpinned by strong container throughput, the local container tariff hike and a lower effective tax rate. We anticipate Westports’ earnings growth momentum to slow in 2H as we expect certain ad hoc port calls to dissipate. We maintain our earnings forecasts, HOLD call and DCF-TP of MYR4.30 (WACC: 6.7%, LT growth (2025-2054): 2%). The uncertainty surrounding its key customers may clear up towards end-2016.

Outside Malaysia:

E.U: Euro-area economic confidence unexpectedly improved in July in a sign that the immediate impact on growth of Britain’s surprise vote to leave the European Union may be muted. An index of business and consumer confidence rose to 104.6 in July from 104.4 the previous month, the European Commission said. (Source: Bloomberg)

Germany: Unemployment extended its decline in July, in a sign that Europe’s largest economy is showing resilience to uncertainty unleashed by Britain’s vote to leave the European Union. The number of people out of work fell by a seasonally adjusted 7,000 to 2.682 million in July, data from the Federal Labor Agency showed. The jobless rate remained at a record low of 6.1%. (Source: Bloomberg)

Germany: Inflation exceeds forecasts as Draghi eyes Brexit clues. German inflation accelerated more than economists estimated in July, a positive signal for policy makers struggling to meet their goal for price growth in the 19- nation euro area. The rate rose to 0.4% from 0.2% in June, the Federal Statistics Office in Wiesbaden said. (Source: Bloomberg)

Spain: Unemployment fell to the lowest in almost six years in a fresh sign the economy is pushing ahead even as lawmakers struggle to form a government that can end an unprecedented seven-month political deadlock. The jobless rate dropped to 20% in the three months through June, the National Statistics Institute said. That’s down from 21% in the previous quarter, reflecting the start of the summer season. Overall, the number of Spaniards out of work fell by 216,700 people to 4.57 million total in what is typically a quarter when companies begin to hire new staff before the vacation season as well as the sales period in the retail sector. In total, the Spanish economy has added 434,400 new jobs over the past 12 months as the recovery continued despite the political uncertainty that has dominated the nation with two elections in half a year. (Source: Bloomberg)

Japan: Industrial output beats estimates, retail sales rise. Japan’s industrial production rose more than economists forecast while retail sales eked out a first time gain in three months. The indicators add a mixed signal ahead of the Bank of Japan’s policy decision, after weakness in data on consumer prices and household spending. Output rose 1.9% (estimate 0.5%) in June from May, the trade ministry reported. Retail sales rose 0.2%. (Source: Bloomberg)
