MARKET PULSE: NOL, Wilmar, Yangzijiang, Bumi Armada, Raffles Med
25 Feb 2013
KEY IDEA
Neptune Orient Lines: Is the worse over?
Summary: We were disappointed by Neptune Orient Lines's (NOL) 4Q12 performance. Although there were YoY improvements, NOL still registered a net
loss of US$98.1m. On a full-year basis, NOL saw revenue inch higher by 3.3% YoY to US$9,511.6m with net losses falling to US$419.4m from US$478.2m.
This set of results force us to re-evaluate the timing of NOL's turnaround, and we expect 1Q13 to remain loss-making. Nonetheless, the stabilisation
in overall freight rates remain encouraging and we maintain our view that NOL will return to full profitability by the onset of the peak season.
Coupled with NOL's manoeuvrability in terms of capacity management, we maintain BUY on NOL with an unchanged fair value of S$1.38. (Lim Siyi)
MORE REPORTS
Wilmar: Downgrade to HOLD; positives priced in
Summary: Wilmar International Limited (WIL) has posted a much stronger-than-expected set of FY12 results. Although reported net profit was down
21.6% at US$1255.5m, core earnings at US$1167.0m (down 23.1%) were still 14% ahead of our forecast. WIL has declared a final dividend of S
$0.030/share (versus S$0.031 last year), bringing its total dividend to S$0.05 for FY12, or 18% lower than last year. Going forward, management
remains “cautiously optimistic” about its long-term prospects. On growth drivers over the next two years, management believes that its fledging
flour and rice business in China will continue to show strong double-digit growth; also looking to expand plantation business in Africa and Myanmar.
From the 4Q operating numbers, it does appear that the operations are stabilizing. As such, we bump up our valuation from 13.5x to 15x FY13F EPS,
which in turn raises our fair value from S$3.52 to S$3.90. But we suspect most of the positives may already be priced in, given that the stock has
rallied by as much as 26% since we upgraded our call on 9 Nov. But in view of the limited upside, we downgrade our call to HOLD; would be buyers
closer to S$3.50. (Carey Wong)
Yangzijiang Shipbuilding: Results largely in line; four more contracts ceased
Summary: Yangzijiang Shipbuilding (YZJ) reported a 32% YoY fall in revenue to RMB3.6b and a 22% drop in net profit to RMB807.7m in 4Q12, bringing
full year revenue and net profit to RMB14.8b and RMB3.6b, respectively. Results were largely in line with our expectations, with both revenue and
net profit 4% shy of our full year estimates. Four shipbuilding contracts were ceased in 4Q12, affecting the original delivery schedule. The
commercial shipbuilding industry is still in its down cycle and the operating environment continues to be difficult and challenging. We still expect
2H13 to 1H14 to be the most difficult period for the group, based on its order book (US$3.4b as at 22 Feb 2013) and delivery schedules. Maintain
HOLDwith fair value estimate of S$0.95. (Low Pei Han)
Bumi Armada: Decent FY12 results
Summary: Bumi Armada Berhad’s revenue and net profit increased by 7.5% and 7.3% to MYR 1.7b and MYR386m respectively for FY12 , driven by stronger
contribution from its FPSO, OSV and T&I (Transport and Installation) divisions. The results were within ours and the street’s expectations. FY12
PATMI margin was flat at 23.3%. The group also declared a final cash dividend of 3 MYR cents for 2012 (2011: 2.5 MYR cents). Looking ahead,
management believes that the long-term outlook for the offshore oil & gas service sector remains positive and anticipates robust capital expenditure
as the search for deepwater oil continues. However, we feel that current valuations – at 21x PER and 2.6x PBR – provide limited upside potential.
Maintain HOLD with unchanged fair value estimate of MYR3.48. (Chia Jiunyang)
Raffles Medical Group: 4Q12 results within expectations
Summary: Raffles Medical Group (RMG) reported its 4Q12 results this morning which were within our expectations. Revenue rose 14.9% YoY and 5.5% QoQ
to S$83.0m. PATMI jumped 22.7% YoY and 61.0% QoQ to S$20.2m. For FY12, revenue of S$311.6m represented a 14.2% increase, and just 0.1% shy of our
forecast. Reported PATMI rose 12.8% to S$56.8m. However, if we exclude the fair value gain in investment properties amounting to S$3.9m, we estimate
that core PATMI rose 9.7% to S$52.9m, forming 99.3% of our earnings projection. The improved performance was attributed to growth from its Hospital
Services and Healthcare Services divisions, which both saw a double-digit jump in revenue (16.1% and 11.4% respectively). The former was driven by
higher patient loads, a wider range of medical specialties on offer and the recruitment of more specialist consultants. A final dividend of 3.5 S
cents/share was declared, bringing full-year DPS to 4.5 S cents and translates into FY12 yield of 1.4%. This is slightly higher than our 4 S
cents/share forecast. We will provide more updates after the analyst briefing. Given the YTD appreciation in RMG’s share price, we place our Hold
rating and S$2.68 fair value estimate under review. (Wong Teck Ching Andy)
