Margin expansion to drive earnings recovery

 

■ We came away positive post Thai Bev’s FY25 briefing as strong margin expansion trend is likely to continue into FY26F.

■ We expect EBITDA margin to improve 50bp in FY26F on lower input costs across segments, providing relief against elevated marketing spend.

■ THBEV’s diversification into new regions and product lines should also bring revenue growth, in our view.

■ Dividend yield of 5% is still attractive to us despite unchanged FY25 DPS of THB0.62. Reiterate Add, valuations remain inexpensive at 10x fwd P/E.

Geo Energy Resources Ltd

Hurt by the trough in coal prices

 

 3Q25 earnings were below expectations. 9M25 revenue and PATMI were 86%/56% of our FY25e forecast. Net profit declined 55% YoY to US$3.2mn despite a 100% jump in coal sales to 3.4mn tonnes.

Coliwoo Holdings ($0.56, down 0.5 cents) delivered strong underlying performance in FY2025. Core PATMI rose 62.6 percent to S$22.9 million. This reflected healthy demand for its co-living operations after stripping out fair value adjustments, IPO expenses, and other one-off items. Gross profit increased by 5.5 percent and gross margins expanded to 71 percent because the prior year included a lower margin retrofitting project that did not recur. The company declared a final dividend of 2.0 cents per share in line with its IPO commitment.

Coliwoo’s market cap stands at S$269.2mln and currently trades at 10.6x FY26F PE and 2.2x PB, with a dividend yield of 3.6%. Consensus target price stands at S$0.80, representing 42.9% upside from current share price. We have an Accumulate on Weakness rating on Coliwoo.

Centurion Accommodation REIT (CAREIT SP)

Right time, right place

 

First pure-play purpose-built living REIT; Initiate BUY

Centurion Accommodation REIT (CAREIT) is the first and only pure-play purpose-built living accommodation REIT listed on SGX with primary exposure to SG PBWA, and PBSA in the UK and Australia.

We forecast distributable income to post a 13.8% CAGR over FY25-27E, supported by assumed rent reversion of 3% pa, a series of AEI initiatives to boost bed count and onboarding of Epiisod Macquarie Park in 2026. We initiate coverage on CAREIT with a BUY and a DDM-based TP of SGD1.27, which implies FY26E DPU yield of c.5.7%. Risks to our call include macroeconomic uncertainties that may weigh on demand/rental rates from PBWA/PBSA.

Thai Beverage PCL (THBEV SP)

FY25: A soft finish and a soft prospect

 

Limited catalysts keep us at HOLD; TP cut to SGD0.43

Following ThaiBev’s weaker-than-expected FY25 results, we cut our FY26– 27 earnings forecasts by 4% pa. We expect the operating softness to persist. Our macro team forecasts Thailand GDP growth at a modest 1.7% in 2026, while our consumer team anticipates only a gradual recovery in Vietnam amid intense beer competition. Sabeco’s contribution remains below 15% and offers limited support. Against this backdrop, progress on potential value-unlocking initiatives (BeerCo and F&N spin-offs) appears unlikely in the near term. With few catalysts ahead, we maintain our nonconsensus HOLD rating and lower our TP by 3% to SGD0.43.
