Seatrium Ltd Divesting US yard, lower provision and cost
■ We are positive on STM’s divestment of its US yard, AmFELS, given that the yard has been facing labour shortage and cost escalations in recent years. ■ The divestment will fetch S$65m (S$50m to be deferred over one year post closing), and we estimate gains to be S$26m, progressively recognised. ■ STM targets to deliver all projects by end-2025F, including two legacy projects. Opex cost could reduce by S$20m in FY26F from the above. ■ We also expect provision for onerous contracts to taper in 2H25F as a legacy WTIV project has arrived at customer’s site. Maintain Add, S$2.80 TP.
