Frencken Group (FRKN SP) 1Q22: Impacted By Mounting Cost Pressures And Automobile Disruptions
Frencken’s weak 1Q22 earnings of S$12.8m (-12.6% yoy, +1.7% qoq) was impacted by rising cost pressures and disruptions in the automobile industry.
We believe the global automobile industry will continue to be plagued by an extended period of slow production due to the semiconductor chip shortage and prolonged Russia-Ukraine conflict, which would negatively impact Frencken’s automobile segment. We have lowered our target price to S$1.63 (from S$2.06). Maintain BUY.
