Gaining back
some sweetness
|
|
51%-sugar subsidiary, MSM MK (HOLD), received a relief
yesterday as the government raised ceiling prices of domestic refined
sugar by 4%-7%. Our MSM analyst is positive on this development,
raising his EPS forecasts by 7%/16%/13% for FY17/18/19 which correspondingly
raises our FGV’s EPS by 8%/12%/6% (on low base). As FGV still trades
93x/51x FY17-18 PER, it remains a HOLD with unchanged TP of MYR1.60 on
1x trailing P/BV.

adjustments to sugar ceiling prices
|
|
Effective 1 Mar 2017, the ceiling prices for coarse grain
white refined sugar for both wholesalers and retailers have been
increased by 7%/4% to MYR2.87/kg and MYR2.95/kg respectively. This
should help MSM to partly mitigate rising raw sugar costs. We raise our
earnings forecasts by 7-16% factoring in the higher ASPs. Consequently,
our TP is now a higher MYR4.70 (+60sen, 16.0x 2018 PER).

4Q16 briefing
takeaways
|
|
There could some headwinds ahead, given the uptick in raw
material costs. However, we sense that NESZ has room for efficiency
gains or that it could pass such cost increases through to consumers.
Growing export sales could also act as a buffer. NESZ is fairly valued
now, in our view, trading at 27.9x PER, in line with its 5Y mean. Our
DCF-TP is unchanged at MYR78.00. FY17E DY of 3.6% should provide
support to share price.

The devil is still in the details…

President Trump’s first address to the Congress
reiterate the “America First” theme and highlighted policy priorities
i.e. tax reform, fair trade, immigration and border security,
business regulations, defence and public safety. However, the speech
overall lacked specifics, except for the USD1tr infrastructure
investment, hence the guessing game on Trump’s policies will
continue.

Outside Malaysia:
U.S: Manufacturing expands at fastest pace since August
2014 as factory managers reported stronger orders and production. The
Institute for Supply Management’s index climbed to 57.7, the sixth
straight advance, from 56 a month earlier, the Tempe, Arizona-based
group’s report showed. Readings above 50 indicate growth. The ISM’s gauge
of orders increased to the highest level in just over three years, while
an index of production posted its best reading since March 2011. The data
were preceded by recent regional indicators showing similar strength that
has prevailed since the presidential election as companies begin to step
up investment and the global economy stabilizes. (Source: Bloomberg)
E.U: Euro-area manufacturing accelerated for a sixth month
in February amid signs that inflation pressures may be starting to build
as factories struggle to keep up with demand. A Purchasing Managers’
Index climbed to 55.4, IHS Markit said. The reading compares with a flash
estimate of 55.5 and is up from 55.2 in January. Companies raised output
charges at the fastest pace in more than five years as higher commodity
prices and a weaker euro drove up costs, while suppliers took longer to
fill orders, the London-based company said. (Source: Bloomberg)
U.K: House prices rose more than expected in February,
according to Nationwide Building Society, a sign that the market’s
strength has extended into this year. Prices gained 0.6% from January, a
third month of gains. From a year earlier, prices climbed 4.5% to an
average of GBP 205,846 (USD 254,000). Britain’s housing market and the
wider economy have been surprisingly resilient since the vote to leave
the European Union in June. (Source: Bloomberg)
China: Official factory gauge firmed in February as
producer prices rebounded, giving top officials gathering in Beijing a
solid economic backdrop as they seek to rein in financial risk.
Manufacturing purchasing manager’s index climbed to 51.6 in February from
51.3 in January. Non-manufacturing PMI stood at 54.2 versus 54.6 in January.
Private manufacturing PMI from Caixin Media and Markit Economics climbed
to 51.7. (Source: Bloomberg)
S. Korea: Exports rose for a fourth month in February, led
by sales of semiconductors and petroleum products. The biggest increase
in shipments was to China, where there was also a surge in demand for
Korean cosmetics. Exports rose 20.2% YoY (estimate was +13.6% YoY), data
from the trade ministry show. Imports increased 23.3% YoY (estimate was
+21.2% YoY), leaving a trade surplus of USD 7.2b (estimate was USD 4.9b).
