Sunway Bhd (5211) – Healthcare re-rating


Sunway could see some upside if research houses start raising the valuation of its healthcare business.


Bloomberg reported today that Sunway is looking to sell a 20-25% stake in its healthcare unit that could fetch at least USD250 mil.


That means:

If a 20% stake is worth USD250 mil, 100% stake is worth USD1.25 bil.

If a 25% stake is worth USD250 mil, 100% stake is worth USD1 bil.


USD1 bil is about RM4.15 bil.


That is much higher than the valuations given by some research houses, such as:


Kenanga IB: RM1,788 mil

Hong Leong IB: RM1,734 mil

Affin Hwang IB: RM1,800 mil

UOB Kay Hian: RM1,250 mil


(See pics at bottom)


Among the four above, Affin Hwang gave the highest valuation of RM1.8 bil.


However, using that USD1 bil (RM4.15 bil) valuation, that’s still a surplus of RM2.35 bil or 42 sen per share (based on fully diluted no. of shares).


42 sen is equivalent to 30% of Sunway’s share price of RM1.40.


The research houses are valuing using the price-to-earnings method. If valued based on the number of hospital beds, Sunway’s heathcare business should fetch a higher valuation (read: https://www.theedgemarkets.com/article/unlocking-value-healthcare-business)

Focus Point (0157) – A strong recovery stock riding on the success of FamilyMart and MORE Most people think Focus Point (FocusP) is a boring stock with an optical business. They’re wrong… FocusP is the next F&B growth stock to keep an eye on. FocusP F&B business can be categorised into two divisions: 1. Komugi bakery outlets 2.  Komugi corporate sales Investors need to  focus on  Komugi corporate sales  division as this will be the growth driver.   FocusP struck  gold   after its Komugi  central kitchen  was  certified  Halal   in Jan 2018. Since then, it has scored big with corporate customers like  FamilyMart . And there will be more big corporate customers soon once the new central kitchen starts in Dec 2020. Many are unaware that  several hot selling delicious goodies  on FamilyMart’s shelves are  made and supplied by Komugi . Just check the label and you will see that they are  manufactured...

A number of positive factors will continue to drive and support CPO prices. But why are most plantation stocks not rallying? That’s because they are trading at  expensive  valuations of around 30x P/E with low production growth of only of 3-6%, while some even have negative production growth. However, there is an  exception … One  rare  species. One with  double-digit   production growth  and an  attractive   single-digit   P/E . This jewel is little-known  Sarawak Plantation Bhd (SPB) , an  undervalued  company with  explosive earn...

The SUPERNOVA of STAR MEDIA (6084): A Burst of Earnings?

-

Star Media, once a shining star in the newspaper industry, now faces the inevitable fate of a sunset business. The dawn of digital media has cast a long shadow over traditional print newspapers, and The Star is no exception. But like a star in its final moments, there will be one last burst of light before it fades into obscurity — a phenomenon known as a supernova. The recent move by Star Media to hike cover prices for its physical newspaper by 50% from RM2 to RM3, could potentially lead to a significant increase in earnings. While more recent data is not available, for 2H2018, The Star had an average of 151,623 paid printed copies in circulation per publication day (audited and verified by the Audit Bureau of Circulations). Assuming that The Star’s print circulation has now decreased by half to 75k per day, this would still equate to about 27 mil copies per year. A RM1 increase in cover price could potentially result in a boost of RM27m flowing directly to its bottom line. Assuming a...
