1H25: Strong Divestment Momentum Offsets Operational Headwinds

 

1H25 PATMI fell 4% yoy to S$91m due to forex losses and higher interest costs, though excluding forex impact, profit would be stronger. Divestments exceeded expectations, with proceeds earmarked for a special dividend in Feb 25. Property development surged on strong sales, while hotels and investment properties saw weakness from forex and cost pressures. High gearing persists but planned asset sales may stabilise the balance sheet. We upgrade to BUY with a higher target price of S$8.50.

Still on track

 

No surprises in 2Q25 results; retain BUY and TP

2Q25 PATMI of SGD58m and interim DPS of 3.91 cents (or payout ratio of 80%) was spot on with our results preview dated 25 July. For 1H25, net profit of SGD106m (+11% YoY) formed c.46%/45% of MIBG/consensus fullyear forecasts. We see a stronger 2H on the back of continued margin improvement in its London public bus contract renewals, while Other Private Transport UK/EU revenues will increase with the recently awarded On The Beach contract over the summer travel season. As such, we leave our FY25-27E forecasts and DCF-based TP of SGD1.70 unchanged. BUY.
