Brokers Report: Berjaya Auto - Still Standing

Maintain Buy with unchanged Target Price of RM2.40 Berjaya Auto Bhd We maintain our BUY call for Berjaya Auto due to its:  1. Attractive product pipeline going forward;  2. Aggressive expansion from its Philippines operations, helped by a booming auto market (projected growth of 15% in 2016); and,  3. Strong ability to capture market share (2.4% YTD from 1.5%).  Continuously filling its product pipeline.   We expect Berjaya Auto (BAuto) to maintain an interesting product launch schedule in 2016, mainly from its facelifted models and diesel variants.

The diesel CKD CX-5 is also likely to be offered, as the model is already being assembled in Malaysia for the Thailand market.      Strong growth from...

It is investing in a new MYR2.7bn regasification terminal at the Pengerang Deep Water Terminal, which would significantly boost FY18F earnings upon commissioning. However, this has been largely priced in. Maintain NEUTRAL. Despite Petronas Gas’ (PGas) higher-than-expected opex in FY15, we believe its stable earnings outlook remains largely intact. We like PGas for its defensive earnings and strong long-term fundamentals, which are backed by the continued industrialisation in Malaysia that should see a rising demand for gas. However, we believe there are limited catalysts for it...
