UMS Holdings (UMSH SP) Positive 4Q23E ahead Brighter outlook – maintain BUY
We expect UMS to report a stronger 4Q23E, with revenue and PATMI of SGD80m and SGD18m, aided by higher YoY margins from the renewed agreement with its key customer. Going forward, we expect orders to pick up gradually with its key customer and accelerate in 2H24E. In addition, it started to ramp up production for its new customer and we expect SGD30-50m of revenue for FY24E. UMS also raised about SGD50m through a 40m share placement at SGD1.29, which was 2.55x oversubscribed and will provide ample cash for expansion. With a more positive outlook, we maintain BUY with a higher TP of SGD1.49, based on a higher 12x FY24E P/E (from 11x) and also accounting for the dilution of the recent new share placement.
