■ We see Malaysia and Indonesia emerging as prime beneficiaries in ASEAN of strong global demand growth for new data centres amid AI proliferation. ■ Our report discusses implications for relevant sectors in the region, such as telecom, real estate, power producers, tech manufacturing and construction. ■ We prefer players involved in the value chain of data centre construction over operators as they also benefit from the surge in investment by hyperscalers.

Mynews Holdings (MNHB MK) Onwards and upwards
Maintain BUY with a higher TP of MYR0.75 2QFY24 results outperformed on lower-than-expected operating expenses. Consumer sentiment remains lacklustre but we see enhanced internal operating conditions within Mynews and CU stores through refreshed product offerings and effective cost management. Our FY24E-FY26E earnings estimates are lifted by 31%-80%. With expectation for a sustainable earnings growth trajectory, we switch to an earnings-based valuation methodology to derive a higher TP of MYR0.75, based on normalised mean PER of 32x on CY25E EPS (vs. 1.7x FY24E PBV previously).

IJM Corporation (IJM MK) More to come
Tweaking earnings, raising TP, maintain BUY We hosted IJM at our Invest ASEAN 2024 Corporate Day on 12 Jun. Key takeaways are that IJM remains positive on its MYR5b construction job win target for FY25E, and monetisation of its M’sian toll highways is still on the cards. Separately, IJM announced sizeable job wins of c.MYR1b last Friday, lifting its outstanding order book to MYR7b. We adjust FY25-27E earnings by +1% p.a., and raise our RNAV-TP to MYR3.30 (+50sen). We remain upbeat on IJM’s construction job win prospects while rising FDI/ DDIs will benefit its industry and port ops too. BUY.
