Since MAG reported poor 2Q16 results on 18 Aug 2016, its
share price has eased 8%. That said, the poor results were due to an
unusually high prize payout ratio that should not recur. Jackpots sales
and read throughs from competitors hint that 3Q16 sales may grow YoY.
The potential of a large cash call from U-Mobile has also been reduced.
Maintain earnings estimates and MYR2.58 DCF-based TP. With 13% upside
potential and 7% dividend yield, we upgrade MAG to BUY from HOLD.

Outside Malaysia:
Global: GDP is projected to slow to 3.1% in 2016 before
recovering to 3.4% in 2017. The forecast, revised down by 0.1 percentage
point for 2016 and 2017 relative to April, reflects a more subdued
outlook for advanced economies following the June U.K. vote in favor of
leaving the European Union (Brexit) and weaker-than-expected growth in
the United States. These developments have put further downward pressure
on global interest rates, as monetary policy is now expected to remain
accommodative for longer. (Source: IMF WEO Oct 2016)
Brazil: Industry records worst drop in almost five years
in August, eliminating gains recorded over the past five straight months
and pointing to a long road to economic recovery. Production fell 3.8%
MoM from July and was the worst performance since January 2012.
Industrial output fell 5.2% YoY, the national statistics agency said. The
data highlights the challenges facing Brazil’s industry even as signs of
economic recovery emerge. Business confidence has been rising steadily as
Finance Minister Henrique Meirelles pushes measures to rein in spending
and pull Latin America’s largest economy from recession. (Source:

E.U: ECB said to build taper consensus as QE decision time
nears. The European Central Bank will probably gradually wind down bond
purchases before the conclusion of quantitative easing, and may do so in
steps of EUR 10b (USD 11.2b) a month, according to euro-zone central-bank
officials. An informal consensus has built among policy makers in the
past month that asset buying will have to be tapered once a decision is
taken to end the program, the officials said, asking not to be identified
because their deliberations are confidential. They didn’t exclude that QE
could still be extended past the current end-date of March 2017 at the
full pace of EUR 80b (USD 90b) a month. (Source: Bloomberg)
U.K: IMF lifts forecast for economy in 2016 despite
Brexit. The International Monetary Fund became the latest forecaster to
upgrade its outlook for the U.K. this year after the economy proved more
resilient than expected following the vote to leave the European Union.
In its World Economic Outlook published, the Washington-based lender
predicted growth of 1.8% instead of the 1.7% projected in July. That
would make it the fastest-growing economy in the Group of Seven. The IMF
cut its 2017 forecast to 1.1% from 1.3% and noted its estimates depended
on smooth negotiations with the EU. “Slower growth is expected since the
referendum as uncertainty in the aftermath of the Brexit vote weighs on
firms’ investment and hiring decisions and consumers’ purchases of
durable goods and housing,” it said. (Source: Bloomberg)
Crude Oil: Resumes advance as U.S. industry data shows
inventory dropped by 7.6 million barrels last week, according to the
American Petroleum Institute. An agreement between OPEC and non-members
could trim output by 1.2 million barrels a day and boost prices by as
much as USD 15 a barrel, according to Venezuela’s oil minister. Brent for
December settlement was USD 50.87/bbl on the London-based ICE Futures
Europe exchange. (Source: Bloomberg)
