3QFY25: Cautious Stance In View Of Upcoming Uncertainties

MLT provides FY26 distribution yield of 6.4% (FLT: 7.3%). Maintain HOLD. Target price: S$1.35.

Malaysia Strategy JS-SEZ: Realising Opportunities
JS-SEZ: It is for “RRR”eal! Our recent visit to Johor, a week after the signing of the JS-SEZ agreement reaffirms our confidence of its success. The cherry on top of our trip is the meeting with the Chief Minister of Johor who shared his views and the commitment of both Malaysia and Singapore to see this agreement through. We met with JLand Group, and more importantly, a site visit to the data centre hotspot, Sedenak, a testimony of the burgeoning activity there. Not forgetting, sighting landbank of a handful of property companies, as we had identified the property sector as a key beneficiary of the JS-SEZ. A view of the progress of the RTS suggests that the project is on track to complete by end-2026. Our JS-SEZ proxies are ECW, ITMAX, DIALOG, YTLP while plantation beneficiaries are SDG, GENP and KLK.
