Singapore Property Hong Kong marketing feedback On the supply outlook and other policy measures We met with investors in HK following our recent property sector upgrade. Discussions centred on the (improving) supply outlook across the various subsectors in supporting prices and rents, and the broader demand drivers (affordability ratios, new economy industries). Despite the strong YTD share price rally, we believe investors were anticipating incremental policy measures to drive further sector re-rating. In general, investors appear to demonstrate a relative preference for developers, followed by commercial and lastly industrial REITs. Our large-cap BUYs are CDL, UOL, CCT, KREIT, AREIT and MINT.

Keppel Corporation (KEP SP) Gas Strategy Hints At Building A Recurrent Earnings Stream Keppel’s underlying gas strategy entails more than just being a preferred vendor for LNG solutions; it hints towards building up a base of FLNG assets that generate recurring income. The compelling economics of FLNG units support this, with equity IRR as high as ~40%. Keppel could create a FLNG trust, in the footsteps of Golar LNG Partners. However, this will take years to unfold and near-term headwinds cap share price upside. Maintain HOLD with an unchanged target price of S$6.55. Entry price: S$5.90.

Thai Beverage Impending excise tax hike does not faze us ■ We retain our view that any near-term consumption weakness from the mourning period or impending tax hike (to be implemented in Sep 2017) is temporary. ■ Historical evidence shows no prolonged volume impact from excise tax hikes. ■ Instead, there could be margin upside potential if Thaibev raises ASPs beyond the excise tax hike. ■ We also met F&N recently and we like its regional expansion ambitions. This fits in perfectly with Thaibev’s planned transformation into a regional beverage player. ■ Reiterate Add with an unchanged TP of S$1.07.
