Wilmar International

Weak refining margins weigh on results

 

■ 2Q25 core net profit came in within our estimates, but below Bloomberg consensus.

■ Lower qoq and yoy 2Q25 results mainly dragged by compressed margin from the Feed & Industrial Products segment.

■ We expect 2H25F earnings to be higher hoh on the back of higher commodity prices, but tropical oil business remains challenging.

■ Reiterate Reduce, TP: S$2.70, on the back of uncertainties in Indonesia on the land confiscation issues and ongoing investigation on alleged cases.

Centurion Corporation Limited

Still strong in all segments

 

▪ Centurion Corporation Limited (CCL)’s 1H25 revenue/adj. PATMI were within our expectations, at 52%/48% of our FY25e forecasts. CCL’s Singapore purpose-built worker accommodation (SG PBWA) has experienced positive rental revisions and occupancy remains full at 99% for the sixth quarter since 1Q24. UK and Australia’s purpose-built student accommodations (PBSAs) are still experiencing positive rental revisions due to the persistent shortage of beds.

Singapore Banking Monthly

NIMs decline across the board

 

▪ July’s 3M-SORA was down 24bps MoM to 1.93%, the lowest since Sep 2022 and fell by 171bps YoY. Singapore loan growth has continued to climb (Jun 25: 6%), but we expect a slight slowdown due to the trade war. Banks are guiding low to mid-single digit. CASA ratio was stable (Jun25: 19.2%), and rising CASA of 11% would provide a tailwind for the banks from lowered funding costs.
