Japfa Ltd (JAP SP) Chicken Bounce
Poultry rebound and NDR takeaways; BUY A strong rebound in Indonesia broiler prices in April should allay market concern of weak ASPs in the prior two months. Separately, management indicated Vietnam possibly holds the most growth promise in the near term and, the African Swine Flu (ASF) situation, while negative, will accelerate industrialised farming share of the market. We trim FY19E21E forecasts by 9-12% and SOTP target by 11% to SGD0.93 from margin assumption revisions given the raw material cost escalation seen in 1Q19.

Golden Agri-Resources: Supported by govt policies
In its latest 1Q19 results, Golden-Agri’s (GAR) revenue fell 11.0% YoY to US$1.6b while net profit rose 54.5% to US$18.3m. Still, this was below ours and the street’s expectations. Since our earlier report on 9 Apr 2019 in which we noted the stock was trading close to the +1 s.d. level in terms of P/B valuations, the share price of GAR has corrected by about 20%, possibly because of its weaker-than-expected results and the recent market sell-down. The recent correction in crude oil prices has meant that the palm-oil-gas-oil spread has narrowed, making palm less attractive for blending into biofuel. Weak soybean oil prices, a substitute for palm oil, are also keeping the palm market under pressure. On the other hand, government policies in Indonesia and Malaysia are expected to provide support to palm oil prices as both countries increase the mandatory use of diesel containing locally produced biofuel. We update our estimates and our fair value slips from S$0.29 to S$0.27. Maintain HOLD. |
