▌What’s on the Table… ——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

British American Tobacco - Higher contract sales provide the puff BAT’s 9M13 results were in line, at 79% of our full-year forecast and 77% of consensus numbers. Domestic sales fell after the price hike in June 2013 but higher contract manufacturing volume enabled BAT to achieve 5% revenue growth. Despite the more challenging outlook, BAT remains a Neutral due to its decent dividend yield of 4%. Also intact is our DDM-based target price which uses a WACC of 6.5%. For exposure to tobacco stocks in the region, we recommend Indonesia’s Gudang Garam which has a much stronger 3-year earnings CAGR of 7%. BAT declared a third interim single-tier dividend of 68 sen, bringing YTD total DPS to 204 sen, in line with our forecast.

Top Glove Corporation - Banking on nitrile

During Top Glove’s 4QFY13 briefing, management stated that it will continue to expand its production of nitrile gloves and computerise its manufacturing facilities. This will mitigate the impact of weak natural rubber sales and increase profitability. We raise our FY14-16 net profit forecasts by a slight 1% after updating FY13 segmented results. Our target price, which is based on an unchanged 17.5x CY15 P/E (10% premium over our market P/E of 15.9x) is raised accordingly. We remain Neutral as we expect the higher nitrile contribution to compensate for the weak natural rubber sales. We prefer Kossan.

Syarikat Perumahan Nasional Bhd (SPNB) is expected to use a new financing scheme for its 1Malaysia People-Friendly Home (RMR1M) programme with the use of panel banks next year. Its Senior Vice President (Finance), Zakaria Alang Hassan, said the old method took three to five years to process the loans due to a deluge of applicants and limited allocation whereas the new financing scheme was expected to be processed within three to five months.
