Investment Actions
Based on last closing price of S$0.435 and the price floor that we are expecting at S$0.43, we believe there is limited downside risk. We continue to like 800 Super for its defensive business model amidst the current market volatility. We maintain our target price of S$0.58 based on 7.5x FY16e P/E multiple. Reiterate BUY.
