Stocks that could re-rate given time:
Del Monte could be in for a re-rating if its turnaround demonstrated in 2QFY4/16 results continue. Full year results will provide a better sense of how well Del Monte has managed its acquisition of the US business. Refinancing via preference securities remain a goal, though again being delayed by weak equity market conditions. Eventual listing of the US business is a likely option to recapitalise the group.
Sarine Tech’s Board opines that the worst of its industry downturn is behind. This should lead to an earnings recovery post the dismal FY15. The key re-rating drivers are better than expected results in the short-term and faster progress in its polished diamond customer segment which has the potential to be a significant earnings contributor.

Top picks
Our top picks are GL Limited, Innovalues, SARINE, Venture Corporation.
In the dividend yield department, UMS Holdings continues its excellent track record as a dividend paymaster, ending FY15 with a 6 Scts DPS in total (11% yield). Although 1H is expected to be weak and earnings could fall 33% yoy in FY16, strong FCF generation is likely to see the continuation of its 5-6 Scts DPS payout. A risk to highlight is the expiry of its AMAT contract in 2017. Terms and ability to renew the contract does pose a risk.
