Bursa Malaysia shares drifted lower Monday in line with the softer regional tone, in spite of China's stronger-than-expected 2Q GDP of 6.9% as investors were wary the Chinese government may further regulate the economy. The KLCI ended up 0.19 point at 1,755.19, off an early high of 1,759.52 and low of 1,752.78, as losers edged gainers 441 to 417 on moderate turnover of 2.04bn shares worth RM1.71bn. The local market may continue to consolidate with slight downward bias given the softer regional tone and lack of positive domestic catalysts to lift sentiment. The immediate support for the index from the 100-day moving average at 1,754 must hold to prevent slide to stronger support at 1,729, a key support level in April, while crucial uptrend support is from the 200-day moving average at 1,706. Immediate resistance stays at the 50day moving average now at 1,772, next 1,782, followed by the recent peak of 1,796. Any further selloff on Bina Puri shares towards the 25/5/16 low (36sen) will likely encourage buying to trigger rebound given the present oversold technical momentum, but upside appears restricted to the 23.6%FR (40sen) and 38.2%FR (42sen). Likewise, Hock Seng Lee may stage oversold rebound on a further selloff, with upside capped at RM1.65 and the 76.4%FR (RM1.70), while better support is anticipated near RM1.50.

Likewise, Hock Seng Lee may stage oversold rebound on a further selloff, with upside capped at RM1.65 and the 76.4%FR (RM1.70), while better support is anticipated near RM1.50. Asian Markets Mixed Despite Stronger China Growth Asian stock markets traded mixed on Monday despite the release of better-than-expected China second-quarter GDP. China second-quarter GDP rose 6.9 percent on year, better than the 6.8 percent forecast by a Reuters poll. South Korea’s Kospi index rose 0.43 percent to 2,425.10 points, boosted by a gain for index heavyweight Samsung. In down under, the benchmark ASX200 ended lower by 0.17 percent to close at 5,755.47 after a session of sideways trade. Chinese stocks were hit by a plunge in small-cap stocks following a signal from a high-profile financial conference that Beijing is focused on tighter control of the economy. The blue-chip CSI300 index lost 1.07 percent to 3,663.56 points, while the Shanghai Composite Index fell 1.42 percent to 3,176.50 points. Japan markets were closed for Marine Day. Wall Street Flat as Investors Await Earnings Deluge U.S stocks closed little changed in low volume on Monday as investors geared up for a slew of earnings reports later this week. Goldman Sachs, Bank of America, Microsoft, Qualcomm and eBay are just a few of the companies scheduled to release quarterly results this week. Consumer-discretionary shares posted some of the biggest moves in an otherwise listless market, as investors snapped up beaten-down shares in brick-and-mortar retailers. Macy’s rose 3.1% and Kohl’s added 2.7%. Shares of Netflix soared more than 8% after the bell, following better than expected subscriber growth. Meanwhile, BlackRock shares fell 3.1 percent after the world's biggest asset manager's quarterly profit came in below expectations. Page 1 of 7
  4. TA Securities 18-Jul-17 A Member of the TA Group The S &P health sector fell 0.3 percent while utilities gained 0.4 percent. Health stocks was partly weighed down by a delay in the U.S Senate's consideration of healthcare legislation after news over the weekend that Arizona Republican Senator John McCain would remain in his home state next week following a medical procedure. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 8.02 points, or 0.04 percent, to 21,629.72, the S&P 500 lost 0.13 points to 2,459.14 and the Nasdaq Composite gained 1.97 points, or 0.03 percent, to 6,314.43.

  7. TA Securities 18-Jul-17 A Member of the TA Group News In Brief Economy Asia China Maintains 6 .9% Economic Growth, Beating Expectations China’s economy steamed along in the second quarter, beating forecasts and matching the 6.9% expansion in the first, as Beijing balances its growth objectives against the need to rein in excessive credit and an overheating property market. That there was no deceleration in growth is a powerful signal that Beijing will be able to maintain stability in the world’s second-largest economy ahead of a leadership shuffle this year. However, economists said rising financing costs and some cooling in the property market are expected to weigh down growth in the year’s second half. China’s growth data released by the National Bureau of Statistics came in above a forecast for 6.8% growth by economists polled by The Wall Street Journal. On a quarter-over-quarter, seasonally adjusted basis, gross domestic product expanded 1.7%, the bureau said, compared with growth of 1.3% in the first quarter, suggesting that momentum in the economy may be even stronger than the year-over-year figure indicates. At a high-level financial conference this past weekend, President Xi Jinping made clear that the regulatory tightening would continue apace. Robust overseas shipments, reflecting renewed strength in the global economy, and solid consumption at home helped offset a slowdown in investment. The latest result leaves little doubt that China will meet its annual growth target of “about 6.5%,” though economists said they expect some deceleration during the rest of the year. The latest monthly industrial production and retail sales figures, also released, largely tallied with the GDP data. Industrial output rose 7.6% in June from a year earlier, coming in above both May’s 6.5% gain and market expectations. Retail sales grew by 11.0% in June from a year earlier, accelerating from the previous month’s 10.7% and also beating forecasts. Fixed-asset investment in non-rural areas of China climbed 8.6% year over year in the first six months of 2017, matching the increase in the January-May period but exceeding economists’ expectations. (The Wall Street Journal) Singapore Non-Oil Exports Rebound in June, Beating Forecasts with 8.2% Rise Non-oil domestic exports (NODX) bounced back in June, topping expectations with an 8.2% increase from the year earlier, with a strong rise in non-electronic shipments offsetting a smaller increase in electronic sales. Analysts polled by Bloomberg had expected NODX to rise 5.1% in June from the same month a year ago. Exports in May edged up just 0.4% in May, revised up from an earlier estimate of a 1.2% decline, and dipped 0.3% in April, after expanding for six straight months. On a month-on-month seasonally adjusted basis, NODX declined by 2.7% in June, after the previous month's 9.4% increase, as the decline in electronic shipments outweighed the increase in non-electronic sales, data from trade agency International Enterprise (IE) Singapore showed. Some S$14.5 billion exports were recorded in June, lower than the S$14.9 billion in May. Exports of electronics cooled in June, expanding by 5.4% year-on-year compared to the 28.9% surge in May. Last week data showed that Singapore narrowly avoided a technical recession, growing at 0.4% in the second quarter from the quarter before, saved by solid global demand for its tech products. (The Straits Times) Indonesia Exports, Imports Contract in June Indonesia's exports and imports contracted in June on a yearly basis for the first time in nine months and officials from the statistics bureau blamed seasonal factors. Eid al-Fitr holidays and restrictions for trucks on toll roads were the reasons for the contraction, said Suhariyanto, the head of the statistics bureau. Indonesia's exports in June fell 11.82% to US$11.64 billion on an annual basis, the first contraction since September 2016, data from the bureau showed. Meanwhile, June imports declined 17.21% from last year to US$10.01 billion, compared with the 8.87% expansion rate. Despite the contraction, Indonesia still posted a trade surplus in June. In the first six months of 2017, trade surplus was US$7.63 billion, the biggest first semester trade surplus since 2012. (The Edge Market) Page 5 of 7
  8. TA Securities 18-Jul-17 A Member of the TA Group United States New York Manufacturing Index Falls More than Expected Activity in the New York manufacturing sector grew at a notably slower pace in the month of July , according to a report released by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York on Monday. The New York Fed said its general business conditions index dropped to 9.8 in July from 19.8 in June, although a positive reading still indicates growth. Economists had expected the index to fall to 15.0 (RTT News) Europe and United Kingdom Eurozone Inflation Softens to 1.3% ahead of July ECB Meeting Inflation in the Eurozone slipped back in June, official data confirmed today, as investors get ready to scrutinize comments from ECB president Mario Draghi on the central bank’s stimulus measures later this week. Annual consumer prices in the Eurozone rose 1.3% in June, according to a second reading from Eurostat which came in line with an initial estimate. Inflation fell back from 1.4% in May having spiked at a three-year high of 1.9% in April. Core inflation, which strips out volatile components and is seen as a more reliable gauge of inflationary pressures, rose from 0.9% to 1.1% in June. Policymakers at the European Central Bank are due to make their latest decision on interest rates and QE on Thursday. It will be the first time Mr Draghi will be addressing journalists following bullish remarks on the state of the Eurozone’s recovery last month, which drove the euro to a seven-month high and sparked a “mini taper tantrum” in the bond market. (Financial Times) UK House Prices Stabilize, but Buyers Still Wary: Rightmove Asking prices for houses and apartments in England and Wales stabilized after a drop in June, but home-buyers remain cautious as wage growth falls behind inflation, a survey by property website Rightmove showed. The figures were based on property advertised between June 11 and July 8, covering the weeks after Prime Minister Theresa May unexpectedly lost her majority in parliament, creating uncertainty for investors who were already on edge about Britain's exit from the European Union. Rightmove said average asking prices for property sold on its website increased by a monthly 0.1% in July, a month that usually sees slight falls in prices. In annual terms, prices were up 2.8% compared with a 1.8% rise in June. Other house price measures have shown a slowdown in growth this year, mirroring a weakening of the economy as consumers feel the pinch of rising inflation. (Reuters) Germany Manufacturing Employment Rises in May Germany's manufacturing employment increased in May from a year ago, data from Destatis showed. The number of people worked in local manufacturing units rose by around 78,000 or 1.4% from prior year in May. At the end of May, there were 5.5 million employed persons in local manufacturing units. The number of hours worked in May climbed 10.7% from a year earlier, reaching 721 million. The earnings totaled EUR 24.7 billion, which was 3.1% more than in May 2016. (RTT News) Page 6 of 7

RAMLEE, 50250 KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA TEL: +603-20721277 / FAX: +603-20325048 l Hartalega Holdings Berhad TP: RM6.85 (-0.2%) Fundamentals Intact but Fairly Valued Last traded: RM6.87 THIS REPORT IS STRICTLY FOR INTERNAL CIRCULATION ONLY* SELL Wilson Loo Tel: 603-2167 9606 wilsonloo@ta.com.my We recently visited Hartalega’s management at the group’s maiden plant in Bestari Jaya. Key takeaways include: 1) expectation for robust capacitydriven growth intact with healthy growth in demand for the group’s rubber gloves, 2) capacity expansion projects sailing smoothly with slight expedition to latest plants, 3) moderated price competition which we believe should enable the group to sustain the recent recovery of its PBT margins in the 20-25% range for the foreseeable term, and 4) there is still room for efficiency improvements at Bestari Jaya’s earlier plants. Upon performing housekeeping to our ASP and capacity assumptions, our FY17/FY18 earnings estimates are revised by +0.5%/+1.1% to RM403.6mn/RM470.3mn and we arrive at a slightly higher TP of RM6.85/share (previously RM6.80/share) based on an unchanged PE multiple of 25.0x against CY18 EPS. Notwithstanding the group’s sound fundamentals and our expectations for solid earnings growth in the nearto-medium term (FY18/FY19/FY20: +26.0%/+16.5%/+15.7%.), we are reiterating our recent downgrade on the stock to Sell as we opine that the stock is fairly valued at current levels having priced in near term drivers. Expectation for Robust Capacity-Driven Growth Intact Our expectation for Hartalega to deliver robust capacity-driven growth is intact with management alluding that the group continues to experience healthy growth in demand for its rubber gloves. In fact, to meet the growing demand, we note that commissioning of tail-end production lines at the group’s latest plant, Plant 3, at the Next Generation Integrated Glove Manufacturing Complex (NGC) in Sepang was expedited. During 1QFY18, the remaining four production lines at Plant 3 were commissioned, enlarging total installed capacity by 6.7% to 25.2bn gloves per annum. And indicative of near-term earnings visibility, we understand that the group’s capacity is sold out until October 2017 and plant utilisation rates are hovering close to 90%. Management attributes the robust growth in demand not just to its existing markets and opportunities from untapped markets but also to the group’s quality products, competitive pricing, and ability to deliver. Expansion at the NGC Sailing Smoothly With Plant 3 at the NGC just fully commissioned, the group is now ready to proceed with the commissioning of Plant 4. Commissioning of Plant 4 is targeted to commence shortly in August 2017, earlier than was previously guided (October 2017), due to the shortfall in the group’s current capacity to meet growing orders. Plant 4’s pace of commissioning remains unchanged at 1 production line per month but management does not discount the possibility for commissioning to be expedited or prolonged in the event of an imbalance in the sector’s supply and demand dynamics. Meanwhile, looking further ahead, we note that management is currently deliberating the commencement of groundworks for Plant 5 which is targeted for commissioning during 20192020. All in, we project the group’s capacity to grow at a CAGR of 17.3% over FY18-FY20 and estimate FY18/FY19/FY20’s core net profit growing by 26.0%/16.5%/15.7%.

Coupled with monthly reviews of selling prices, the group has been better able to pass through fluctuations in costs and savings to customers. In view of this, we believe that the group should be able to sustain the recent recovery of its PBT margins in the 20-25% range for the foreseeable term (see Figure 1). Management guided that average selling prices (ASPs) in 1QFY18 were relatively stable with the offsetting of the weakening of the USD against the Ringgit and descend in raw material prices (natural latex & synthetic latex). However, lately with the steady USD/Ringgit and continued descend in raw material prices coupled with the entry into new price-sensitive emerging markets, we note that ASPs are expected to soften. Natural Latex (LHS) Core PBT margins (RHS) 5.00 5% 4.00 0 0% USD/Ringgit (RHS) 8.00 Source: Bloomberg, Companies, TA Securities Room for Improvements at Maiden Plants in Bestari Jaya To date, the group’s maiden plants in Bestari Jaya are still a key contributor to the group. Management guided that the contribution split between Bestari Jaya and NGC is ~50:50. And highlighting the latest key differences between both plants, we note that the NGC is ~40% more productive with average production line speed of 45k pieces of gloves/hour versus Bestari Jaya’s of 32k pieces of gloves/hour and in terms of manual labour dependency, the NGC requires ~40% less labour due to the higher level of automation. Nonetheless, as reflected in the group’s above sector average margins (1QCY17 core PBT margin – Hartalega: 22.0% versus peer average: 10.5%) even prior to the commissioning of the NGC in 2015, we believe that the productivity and efficiency of Bestari Jaya plants are still a leap above that of most peers. Besides, positively for the medium-to-longer term, we understand from management that there is still room for efficiency improvements at some of Bestari Jaya’s plants especially in the area of packaging, which is rather labour dependent. For instance, at Bestari Jaya’s Plant 2, which is one of the group’s very first plants, glove stripping is still done manually and packaging is done offline.

Valuation & Recommendation Upon the revision to our earnings, we arrive at a slightly higher TP of RM6.85/share (previously RM6.80/share) based on an unchanged PE multiple of 25.0x against CY18 EPS. Notwithstanding the group’s sound fundamentals and our expectations for solid earnings growth in the near-to-medium term, we are reiterating our recent downgrade on the stock to Sell as we opine that the stock is fairly valued at current levels having priced in near-term drivers. Our ascribed PE multiple of 25.0x is ~0.5SD above the stock’s 5-year average PE multiple of 23.1x. Downside risks include the ability for the group to sustain high utilisation rates and volatile fluctuations in foreign exchange and raw material prices.

The scope of work of this package involves the completion of final formation, airfield pavement access road, and landside infrastructures & building works. www.taonline.com.my Stock Return Information KLCI 1,755.19 Expected Share Price Return (%) 13.6 Expected Dividend Return (%) 4.3 Expected Total Return (%) 17.9 Share Information Bloomberg Code The contract value for this project is RM302.6mn. Construction work is anticipated to commence upon site possession, scheduled by mid-August. According to the announcement, the project is expected to be completed within thirty-six (36) months from the date of commencement. IBRA MK Stock Code 5084 Listing Main Market Issued Share (mn) 496.4 Market Cap (RMmn) 436.8 Par Value (RM) Our View Although this is the first airport job secured by Ibraco, we believe the group is capable of undertaking this project. The group’s construction division, which was established in 2002, has the ability to carry out earthwork, civil, building and structural works for residential, commercial and industrial projects. It is also able to provide project management services ranging from feasibility studies, master planning, conceptual and detailed design, project management including contract administration and supervision. 52-wk Hi/Lo (RM) Overall, we are positive on this contract win as it will diversify the group’s earnings. In addition, it is in line the group’s strategy to further grow its construction division, which has mainly been focusing on the group’s in house property development. Share Performance (%) Forecast Assuming an operating margin of 7.0%, we estimate the contract to enhance the group’s net earnings by RM13.8mn or 2.8sen/share throughout the construction period. We raise our FY17-19 earnings forecasts by 6-10% assuming the contract commences in Sep-17. Valuation Following the change in earnings, we revise our target price higher to RM1.00/share from RM0.92/share previously, based on unchanged 9x CY18 EPS. Supported by RM303mn unbilled property sales as at Mar-17, the group’s future earnings is now further anchored by RM302.6mn outstanding construction orderbook. Ibraco’s landbank of 627 acres across Kuching, Bintulu and Kuala Lumpur with a collective GDV of RM5.7bn will sustain the group’s earnings over the longer term. With a total return of 17.9%, we upgrade Ibraco to Buy from Hold previously.

  19. TA Securities COMPANY UPDATE Tuesday , 18 July 2017 FBMKLCI: 1,755.19 Sector: Construction A Member of the TA Group MENARA TA ONE, 22 JALAN P. RAMLEE, 50250 KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA TEL: +603-20721277 / FAX: +603-20325048 IJM Corporation Berhad TP: RM3.50(+0.9%) Last traded: RM3.47 Secures RM451mn Building Job from UOB SELL THIS REPORT IS STRICTLY FOR INTERNAL CIRCULATION ONLY* Ooi Beng Hooi Tel: +603-2167 9612 benghooi@ta.com.my New Building Job Worth RM451mn IJM has accepted the Letter of Award from UOB Properties (KL) Bhd for the design, construction and completion of the Proposed Office Development UOB Tower 2, at Jalan Raja Laut, Kuala Lumpur. The project carries a contract sum of RM450.9mn and is to be completed within a period of 40 months. The project includes 5 levels of basement car park, 1 level of lower ground floor, 2 levels of podium for a banking hall and 27 levels of office space including a green lounge reception, a sky lounge and mechanical floors. Our View This is the second major construction contract secured by the group for FY18, after bagging MRT line 2 Station Package S203 worth RM342mn a month ago. To date, we estimate that IJM has secured RM793mn new jobs versus the management’s target of RM3.0bn. With this job win, we estimate the group’s total outstanding construction order book to amount to RM8.8bn. Assuming a PBT margin of 6.0%, we expect the project to enhance the group’s net earnings by RM20.6mn, or 0.6sen/share throughout the construction period. Impact No change to our FY18-20 earnings forecasts as the job win is within our FY18 order book replenishment assumptions of RM3.0bn. Valuation We maintain the target price at RM3.50, based on CY18 PE multiples of 20x for the construction division, 18.4x for the plantation division (20% holding company discount to IJMPLNT’s target PE multiple of 23x), 16x for the infrastructure divisions, 12x for the property division and 14x for the building material division. Maintain SELL call on IJM as we think the stock is fairly valued. www.taonline.com.my SHARE INFO Bloomberg Code IJM MK Bursa Name IJM Stock Code 3336 Listing Main Market Share Cap (m) 3626.9 Market Cap @ RM (RMm) 12585.5 52-wk Hi/Lo (RM) 3.61/3.07 12-mth Avg Daily Vol (000' shrs) 4690.1 Estimated Free Float (%) 65.6 Beta 1.08 Major Shareholders (%) Employees Provident Fund - 14.63 Skim Amanah Saham Bumiputera - 5.93 Lembaga Tabung Haji - 5.62 FORECAST REVISION Forecast Revision (%) Net profit (RMm) Consensus TA/Consensus (%) Previous Rating FY18 FY19 734.3 771.4 666.9 740.1 110.1 104.2 Sell (Maintained) FINANCIAL INDICATORS Net debt/equity (%) CFPS (sen) P/CFPS (x) ROA (%) NTA/Share (RM) Price/ NTA (x) FY18 36.2 5.6 62.3 4.0 2.7 1.3 FY19 31.6 10.4 33.2 4.1 2.8 1.2 SHARE PERFORMANCE Price chg (%) 1 mth 3 mth 6 mth 12 mth IJM (0.3) (0.3) 3.0 0.6 FBMKLCI (2.0) 0.8 5.4 5.0 (12-Mth) Share Price relative to the FBM KLCI Source: Bloomberg Page 1 of 2
