| | | Unlucky quarter but operating metrics improved markedly | | 2Q17 earnings missed our expectation but this was largely due to poor Resorts World Genting (RWG) VIP hold rate which ought to normalise. More importantly, RWG visitor arrivals and gaming volumes have resumed growing YoY and robustly at that. That said, opening of 20th Century Fox World (20CFW) has been delayed to mid-2H18. Adjusting for the above, we cut EPS estimates by 1-9% and trim our end-FY18E SOP-TP to MYR6.00 from MYR6.15. At slightly above our new TP, GENM is now a HOLD. | | |

|
| | | 2Q17: Results in line | | SCG's 1H17 net profit of MY71m was in line with ours but below consensus forecast. Growth in the construction segment from higher work progress helped offset the weaker-than-expected precast earnings. We make no change to our earnings forecasts. SCG's share price has gained 37% YTD; the stock is now a HOLD due to its limited upside to our unchanged TP of MYR2.30, pegged to 18x FY18E earnings. | | |

|
|
| | | Signs of great challenges ahead | | 2Q17 core net loss was MYR5.7m (+55% YoY) after adjusting for FX-translation and AAX's share of losses in associates. This was below our expectation due to a higher-than-expected 13% YoY yield erosion. Staff cost, maintenance and user fees were also higher than expected. We cut FY17-19 earnings forecasts by 29%, 33% and 26% to factor in these new variables. TP has been reduced to MYR0.39 (-13%), based on unchanged 8x PER, but we rolled forward our base year to 2018. Upgrade to HOLD. | | |

|
| | | Still a good value BUY | | 2Q17 results disappointed largely due to poor Resorts World Genting (RWG) VIP hold rate. We trim our earnings estimates by 3% p.a.. Utilising our higher revised TP for GENS (SGD1.35 vs SGD1.25 previously), lower revised TPs for GENM (MYR6.00 vs MYR6.15) and GENP (MYR10.54 vs MYR11.20) and ascribing an unchanged 21% discount to SOP/sh (20-year mean), our GENT TP is little changed at MYR12.00 (MYR11.90 previously). We continue to prefer GENT as a cheaper proxy to GENM and GENS. | | |

|
| | | 4Q better than expected | | HL Bank saw decent earnings growth in FY17 and fundamentals of the group very much remain stable, though pre-emptive measures resulted in a higher GIL ratio during the year. Management's targets for FY18 look achievable and our forecasts are maintained. Much, however, is factored into the share price, in our view, and we maintain a HOLD call with an unchanged TP of MYR15.90, pegged to a CY18 PBV of 1.4x (ROE: 10.2%). | | |

| | | 1QFY18 results in line | | Positively, loan momentum has gathered pace while NIMs have been relatively stable. Meanwhile, management states that there are no contingent liabilities outside the scope of normal business that it is aware of. Based on our projections, however, we expect ROEs to be flat at about 8.4% into FY19 and with little expectation of an expansion in ROEs, we have lowered our CY18 PBV multiple peg to 0.8x from 0.9x and our TP is cut to MYR4.80 from MYR5.25. | | |

| | | Value for money | | In the first analyst briefing hosted by MBM's new CEO and CFO, management wasted no time by addressing concerns of continuous losses at its 78%-owned OMI operations. Elsewhere, cost cuts and management restructuring, especially in the motor trading division, were undertaken since early-2017 and should contribute to better results gradually. We make no change to our earnings forecasts, MYR2.75 TP (10x FY18 PER) and BUY rating on MBM for its exposure to Perodua. | | |

| | | Selectively adjusted product prices | | NESZ has since 1 Jul 2017 selectively adjusted upwards product prices by up to 4% (eg. coffee, ice-cream and noodle products) and we believe that this could act as a buffer against higher costs. Also a positive is that into 3Q17, raw materials such as Robusta and Milk have shown some softening price trends. Coupled with new product/variant launches and a gradual recovery in consumer sentiment, we believe that NESZ's domestic operations could sustain positive momentum into 2H17. | | |

As for its palm oil division, increasing maturity profile of its plantation in Indonesia should help support growth into the medium term. We tweak earnings forecasts marginally; our DCF-based TP of MYR4.60 (WACC: 7.0%, long-term growth: 2.0%) is intact. | | |

| | | Better earnings in 2H17 | | Glove division posted better earnings but overall 2Q17 net profit was marginally weaker (-2% QoQ) due to weaker performance of its Technical Rubber Product (TRP)/cleanroom divisions and higher tax rate. However, we expect earnings to be stronger in 2H17 given the lower rubber costs and capacity growth. We lower our FY17-19 EPS forecasts by 5-12% and our TP is subsequently lowered to MYR7.25 (unchanged 19x 2018 PER; mean). Given the reduced upside, we D/G the stock to HOLD. | | |

YoY growth continues to be supported by the Malaysian hospitals, with the drag from earnings coming from Indonesia and Australia. We raise our FY17-19 net profit forecasts by 11%-12% after incorporating higher patient growth figures for FY17 and tweaking for average revenue per patient. We derive a new higher SOP-based TP of MYR4.40. | | |

TSH remains a HOLD, with a lower TP of MYR1.73 (-1%) on unchanged 19x 2017 PER, -0.5SD its 5-year historical mean. | | |

| | | 1QFY18: On track | | 1QFY18 results were in line. FMCG should remain the growth driver on growing exports to Greater China (eg. China, Hong Kong, Taiwan). Meanwhile, OTB's F&B division should provide a stable earnings base over the medium term. Our earnings forecasts, HOLD call and TP of MYR2.90 (18x CY18 PER) are unchanged. Dividend yield of 3.0% (FY18E) should provide support to its share price. | | |

| | | Weak 2Q17 | | Results remain erratic, as expected, with continued losses in 2Q17. Our earnings forecasts are unchanged, contributions from its Thai RE operations to partially alleviate its O&G business. KNM is fairly valued, in our view, trading at 0.5x NTA, in view of a weakening replenishment outlook. KNM needs to build a consistent earnings stream, manage its costs and steadily grow its RE operations to warrant a re-rating. Our unchanged TP of MYR0.25 is based on0.5x FY17E NTA (in line with peers). | | |

Market breadth was positive with gainers outpacing losers by 433 to 414. Trading volume was at 2.13b shares valued at MYR1.98b. With US markets ended lower overnight on concerns over the US debt ceiling, we expect selling pressure to intensify today. | |

Global: Central bank balance sheets are headed for a great divergence. A brief convergence this year in the dollar value of the balance sheets of the Federal Reserve, the European Central Bank and the Bank of Japan has passed and the trio are now set to take very different paths. After all three touched USD4.5t in April, they've split, mostly due to a rally in the euro and strength in the yen. This divergence has big implications for the central banks the next time crisis threatens the global economy. The Fed and the ECB are likely to have more room to dive back into asset purchases or cut interest rates, while the BOJ may find itself pinned down unless it can find a way out of its current predicament before the next problem comes along.

U.S: Sales of previously owned homes decline to 11-month low. An unexpected decline in sales of previously owned U.S. homes last month to the lowest level since August 2016 indicates rising prices and lean inventories are impeding faster growth in the housing market, National Association of Realtors data showed. The July figure was depressed by weakness in the Midwest and Northeast. Contract closings fell 1.3% MoM to a 5.44m annual rate. Median sales price rose 6.2% YoY to USD 258,300. Inventory of available properties decreased 9% YoY to 1.92m, marking the 26th consecutive year-on-year decline. (Source: Bloomberg)
U.K: Consumer spending barely grows, restraining economy. Consumer-spending growth slowed in the second quarter as car sales fell and business investment stagnated, holding back economic momentum. The 0.1% increase in household expenditure was the weakest since 2014 and meant consumer activity added just 0.1% point to GDP. Business investment flat lined and net trade failed to contribute to growth for a second consecutive quarter. Car sales declined after a strong first quarter, when demand was boosted ahead of a tax change. The economy grew 0.3% in the period. Over the first six months of the year, it recorded its weakest performance since 2012, and the Office for National Statistics said expansion has "slowed markedly." (Source: Bloomberg)
China: Liquidity stress signs build as fund cost jumps at auction. Chinese lenders paid the highest interest rate in more than two years to borrow short-term government funds, adding to recent signs of a mismatch between the demand and supply of cash. The People's Bank of China auctioned CNY 80b (USD 12b) of three-month treasury deposits on behalf of the Ministry of Finance at 4.51%, according to a statement on its website. Liquidity has been cramped this week, with the PBOC draining funds on all four trading days. The lack of injections in open-market operations and the auction of state funds suggest that policy makers are trying to push the use of more expensive, longer-term financing. (Source: Bloomberg)
Japan: Stuck in inflation doldrums as core CPI inches up to 0.5% YoY. Japan's key measure of price changes rose so slightly in July, lagging well behind gains in economic growth as the central bank struggles to spur significant improvement in inflation. Core consumer prices, which exclude fresh food, increased 0.5% YoY. Excluding fresh food and energy, prices climbed 0.1% YoY. Overall, nationwide prices rose 0.4% YoY. (Source: Bloomberg) | |
