Brokers Report: GENM - Improvement In UK and US Operations

Maintain neutral call with raise the target price (TP) to RM4.60



Genting Malaysia (GENM) reported a 70.3% increase in 3Q16 net profit to RM555.7m. Stripping out gain on disposal of assets, reversal of previously recognized impairment losses and tax relief on capex, 9M16 core net profit of RM960.3m came in within expectations. Its UK and US operations delivered stronger performance on the back of higher hold percentage, higher bad debt recovery and pick-up in business volume. We maintain our earnings forecasts for FY16-18F. However, we raise our SOTP-based TP to from RM4.05 to RM4.60 to factor in higher earnings multiples for its UK and US operations given the improvement in earnings visibility. We maintain our Neutral rating on GENM. We believe any meaningful earnings contribution from GITP Phase 1 project would only be felt towards end 2017.
  • 3Q16 revenue rose 8.5% YoY on stronger Leisure & Hospitality contribution. The group achieved a revenue of RM2.2bn, mainly due to a 41% increase in UK revenue to RM308m on the back of higher contribution from the premium players segment. Malaysian revenue was marginally higher, rising 4% to RM1,461.3m on higher hold percentage for the mid to premium segment although business volume was lower. Meanwhile, US & Bahamas registered a 3% increase in revenue to RM321.6m due to higher business volume at Resorts World Casino New York City. However, this was partially offset by cessation of Bimini SuperFast ferry operations. The favourable foreign exchange movement of USD against ringgit has also contributed to higher revenue for this segment.
  • 3Q16 adjusted EBITDA fell 21.7% YoY, mainly due to lower forex translation gains on the group's USD-denominated assets. Malaysia suffered a 5% decline in EBITDA to RM497.3m due to higher operating expenses for the mid to premium market. Casino business in the UK posted RM42.1m EBITDA compared to a loss in 3Q15 due to higher revenue and higher bad debt recovery. US & Bahamas reported RM24.2m EBITDA, compared to only RM4.5m in 3Q15 as it incurred lower operating expenses. GENM recognized a tax credit in the current quarter due to a RM159m tax allowance claim on its GITP project.
  • Maintain NEUTRAL. We maintain our core earnings forecasts for GENM. However, we raise our SOTP valuation from RM4.05 to RM4.60 as we ascribe higher PE multiples of 10-12x (from 8-10x) for its UK and US operations given the improvement in earnings visibility.

特朗普考虑保罗·阿特金斯接任SEC主席，或推动加密货币监管转型

据彭博社报道，美国候任总统唐纳德·特朗普正在考虑由 保罗·阿特金斯 （Paul Atkins）接替即将卸任的证券交易委员会（SEC）主席 加里·根斯勒 （Gary Gensler）。阿特金斯以其支持数字资产的立场闻名，这一任命可能为SEC的加密货币监管政策带来重大转变。 事件概况 阿特金斯的背景 ： 阿特金斯曾在乔治·W·布什政府期间担任SEC专员。他一直推动制定明确且平衡的加密货币法规，力求为金融科技创新提供支持。 行业经验 ： 离开SEC后，阿特金斯领导了 Patomak Global Partners ，一家为主要金融公司提供咨询的机构。他主张简化监管流程以鼓励创新，同时确保市场完整性。 其他候选人 ： 马克·乌耶达 （Mark Uyeda）：现任SEC专员 希斯·塔伯特 （Heath Tarbert）：前商品期货交易委员会（CFTC）主席 罗伯特·斯特宾斯 （Robert Stebbins）：Willkie Farr & Gallagher LLP合伙人 特朗普的亲加密货币立场 特朗普承诺终结根斯勒领导下的SEC“反加密货币运动”。根斯勒的任期因FTX崩盘等丑闻后的强力执法而备受争议，被批评为给行业带来了不确定性。 阿特金斯的潜在任命与特朗普的目标一致，即在保障市场完整性的同时，通过更加友好的监管政策推动数字资产的发展。 接下来会发生什么？ SEC主席的任命预计将在未来几天内敲定。如果阿特金斯接任，这将表明SEC将采取更注重创新的监管方式，为加密货币行业带来更大的确定性和发展空间。

Capital A 股价下跌，因外汇驱动的第三季度业绩低于预期

Capital A Bhd 在周五早盘交易中股价下跌7%，至1.01令吉，市值降至46亿令吉。这是由于其2024财年第三季度业绩未达到大多数分析师预期，尽管受益于外汇收益提振。 2024财年第三季度亮点： 核心税后及少数股东权益后亏损 (Latmi)：  1.434亿令吉，令2024财年前9个月的税后亏损达到1.195亿令吉。 业绩未达  香港联昌投资银行（HLIB）预计的7.549亿令吉的税后净利（Patmi），但与市场普遍预测的4.59亿令吉税后净利一致。 剔除例外项目 (EIs)：  共计12亿令吉，主要由于15亿令吉的外汇收益，但被递延税务损失部分抵销。 环比表现： 核心Latmi从上一季度的5,760万令吉恶化至1.434亿令吉，主要受以下因素影响： 季节性收益率疲弱； 成本增加； ADE MRO（维修、保养及翻修）业务因6个新机库的启动成本造成亏损。 未来展望： 预计2024财年第四季度表现将有所改善，得益于： 更高的机队容量； 季节性需求和收益率的改善； 喷气燃料价格下降及美元贬值； 来自新ADE机库的运营贡献。 待决事项： 航空业务出售：  正等待法院批准出售给亚航长途（AirAsia X Bhd, KL:AAX），预计在2025财年第一季度完成。 PN17状态：  出售后仍维持，预计在2025财年上半年完成相关解决方案。 联昌投资银行（HLIB）建议： 维持“买入”评级，目标价为1.68令吉，估值基于航空业务为68亿令吉，非航空业务为21.5亿令吉。 尽管短期面临挑战，Capital A 的长期增长前景依然受到更强的季节性表现和战略举措的支持。
