Asian Markets Lower on Profit Taking Asian stock markets traded lower on Thursday as investors locked in profits after the Dow broke the 22,000 mark.

Korean Kospi fell 1.68 percent to 2,386.85 dragged by index heavyweight Samsung Electronics.

China stocks were lower after a private survey showed the country's services sector cooled in July and as a net drain of funds by the central bank renewed concerns about liquidity conditions. The services PMI figure for July came in at 51.5, a tad below June's 51.6 reading. The blue-chip CSI300 index lost 0.88 percent to 3,727.83 points, while the Shanghai Composite Index fell 0.35 percent to 3,273.41 points. Page 1 of 7

  7. TA Securities 4-Aug-17 A Member of the TA Group News In Brief Economy Global OECD Annual Inflation Slows to 1 .9% in June 2017 Annual inflation in the OECD area slowed to 1.9% in June 2017, compared with 2.1% in May 2017, reflecting a continued slowdown in energy price inflation. Energy prices rose by 3.0% in the year to June compared with 5.5% in May. Food price inflation marginally increased to 1.6% in June, compared with 1.5% in May. Excluding food and energy, inflation in the OECD area was stable at 1.8% in June. Annual inflation in the Euro area, as measured by the HICP, slightly decreased to 1.3% in June, compared with 1.4% in May. Excluding food and energy, annual inflation increased to 1.1% in June, compared with 0.9% in May. Eurostat’s flash estimate for July 2017 points to stability in overall annual inflation (at 1.3%) but a marginal increase in inflation excluding food and energy (to 1.2%). Annual inflation in the G20 area2 slowed to 2.0%3 in June, compared with 2.2% in May. Among G20 emerging economies, annual inflation decreased in Brazil (to 3.0%, down from 3.6%) and South Africa (to 5.0%, down from 5.3%). On the other hand, it was stable in China (at 1.5%) and India (at 1.1%) and increased in the Russian Federation (to 4.4%, up from 4.1%), Indonesia (to 4.4%, up from 4.3%) and Saudi Arabia (to -0.4%, up from -0.7%). (OECD) Asia China's Private Sector Expands Most in 4 Months China's private sector expanded at the fastest pace in four months at the start of the third quarter driven by the upturn in manufacturing. The Caixin composite output index rose to a four-month high of 51.9 in July from 51.1 in June, survey data from IHS Markit showed. A score above 50 indicates expansion in the sector. Manufacturing output increased at the quickest pace in five months, while services activity expanded at the joint-weakest since May 2016. The services Purchasing Managers' Index fell to 51.5 in July from 51.6 in June. New business grew at a weaker pace in services in July. On the other hand, new work placed at manufacturers advanced at a faster pace. Consequently, composite new business increased at the quickest pace in four months. Employment trends continued to diverge across both monitored sectors in July. Services companies added to their payroll numbers for the eleventh month running, while manufacturing staffing levels continued to decline. (RTT News) Japan Hopes to Hold Economic Talks With U.S. in October: Finance Minister Japan hopes to hold economic talks with Washington in October, Finance Minister Taro Aso said. Aso said that he was hoping to conduct rough preparations with Vice President (Mike) Pence in September and hold a formal talk in October. Aso and Pence have led a U.S.-Japan economic dialogue, which kicked off in April to discuss trade and investment and economic policies of the both countries. The upcoming talks could also include the issue of safeguard tariffs Japan has imposed on frozen beef from the United States and some other countries. He also added that he must continue a dialogue aimed at helping economic development in the Asia-Pacific region to carry out economic and fiscal management. The Trump administration also could press for concessions on trade that could increase U.S. exports to Japan under his "America First" policy. (Reuters) Singapore Private Sector Growth Steadied in July But No Boost to Hiring: Nikkei PMI Growth in Singapore's private sector picked up in July although lower employment persisted, according to the latest Nikkei PMI survey released. The headline Nikkei Singapore Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) rose to 51.3 in July from 50.7 in June. A reading above 50 points to growth, while one below 50 indicates contraction. Separately, young workers in Singapore are at risk of a shortfall in retirement income, despite widespread and high levels of private savings, according to findings by the International Longevity Centre - UK (ILC-UK). It revealed that young workers entering the workforce today in Singapore will have to save 12% of their annual earnings, in addition to what they are already saving through mandatory and personal contributions.

  8. TA Securities 4-Aug-17 A Member of the TA Group Australia Has A $856 Million Trade Surplus in June Australia had a seasonally adjusted merchandise trade surplus of A$856mn in June, the Australian Bureau of Statistics said. That was well shy of forecasts for a surplus of A$1.80bn and down sharply from the A$2.471bn surplus in May. Exports were down 1.0% on month to A$31.779bn, while imports gained 2.0% to A$30.923bn. (RTT News) United States U.S. Jobless Claims Fall by 5,000 to 240,000 The number of Americans filing for unemployment benefits fell last week, suggesting the labour market’s steady expansion has room to run. Initial jobless claims, a measure of layoffs across the U.S., dropped by 5,000 to a seasonally adjusted 240,000 in the week ended July 29, the Labor Department said. Economists surveyed by The Wall Street Journal expected 241,000 new claims. Claims have fallen three of the past four weeks and are hovering near four-decade lows. The four-week moving average of claims, which smooths out volatility, fell 2,500 to 241,750. The figures suggest companies are mostly expanding or holding payrolls steady rather than downsizing, helping extend a historically long labourmarket expansion. They also could boost hopes for a solid jobs report Friday on hiring in July. (The Wall Street Journal) Service Sector Grows Slower than Expected in July Non-manufacturing economic activity grew at a slower pace than expected in July, declining 3.5 points compared to the previous month. The Institute for Supply Management's index registered 53.9 in July, below estimates of 57 by economists surveyed by Thomson Reuters. "The non-manufacturing sector did not sustain the previous rate of growth and cooled-off in July," Anthony Nieves, chair of the ISM survey committee, said in a statement. A reading above 50 for the index indicates expansion in the service sector, and a reading below 50 indicates contraction. Fifteen of the 17 non-manufacturing industries surveyed reported growth in July. Two industries—"management of companies & support services" and "agriculture, forestry, fishing and hunting," reported contraction. The business activity index decreased 4.9 percentage points in July from June, while still reflecting growth for a 96th consecutive month. The new orders index also registered lower at 55.1 in July, 5.4 percentage points lower than the reading of 60.5 in June. The employment index decreased 2.2 percentage points in July to 53.6 percent, continuing month-over-month declines seen in June. Separately, US factory goods orders jumped 3.0%. That was the largest gain since October 2016 and followed two straight monthly declines. May's data was revised to show orders falling 0.3% instead of the previously reported 0.8% drop. (CNBC) Europe and United Kingdom Brexit-Wary Bank of England Leaves Rates on Hold, Cuts Growth Forecast The Bank of England kept interest rates at a record low again and, seeing Brexit weighing on the economy, cut its forecasts for growth and wages. The gloomier outlook for the next two years further reduced speculation in financial markets that the BoE might be nearing its first rate hike in a decade. Governor Mark Carney nonetheless sought to keep alive the possibility of one next year. He said uncertainty about Brexit -- in particular lower investment by companies -- meant the economy could not grow as fast as before without pushing up inflation. So, just a small improvement in growth could bring forward a rate hike. But investors saw no sign that the BoE was in a hurry to raise rates, a stark contrast to the outcome of its last meeting in June when markets thought a hike might be imminent. Central banks around the world have struggled to wean their economies off the stimulus of rock-bottom interest rates, largely because of weak wage growth for workers. The BoE faces the extra challenge of Britain's leaving the European Union, and its uncertain impact on Britain's economy. The Bank said it now expects the economy to grow by 1.7% this year, down from its May forecast of 1.9%. It also shaved its growth forecast for next year to 1.6% from 1.7%, but kept 2019 at 1.8%. The BoE's rate-setters voted 6-2 to keep Bank Rate at 0.25%, in line with forecasts in a poll of economists. That was more clear cut than an unexpectedly close 5-3 vote at the Monetary Policy Committee's meeting in June. (Reuters) Page 6 of 7
  9. TA Securities 4-Aug-17 A Member of the TA Group German Overall Debt Shrinks in 2016 , Heads Towards EU limit A strong economy and higher tax take drove Germany's overall debt down by 0.7% in 2016 keeping Europe's biggest economy on track to bring debt below 60% of economic output by 2020. The Statistics Office said total debt, which includes liabilities from the federal government, states, local governments and social security, stood at 2.006 trillion euros at the end of last year. All areas contributed to the 15.1 billion euro reduction which resulted in per-capita debt of 24,407 euros, but liabilities of Germany's 16 federal states accounted for more than half the decline. The Finance Ministry has said the debt-to gross domestic product (GDP) ratio had shrunk to 68.3% last year from 71.2% in 2015. The European Union says countries should keep the debt-GDP ratio at no more than 60% or at least be heading in that direction. The rules have been broken for years by Germany and other countries. Separately, IHS Markit’s German composite Purchasing Managers Index for July dropped to 54.7, down from 56.4 in June and missing the 55.1 flash reading. That’s a 10-month low and the first time in more than 12 years that the survey for Germany has lagged France, Italy and Spain. The figures nevertheless indicate a solid quarterly growth of between 0.4 % and 0.5% for the bloc’s largest economy. In the euro area overall, the composite PMI fell to 55.7 in July, though the economy remains on track to sustain the speed of its expansion this quarter.

RAMLEE, 50250 KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA TEL: +603-20721277 / FAX: +603-20325048 Fraser & Neave Holdings Berhad TP: RM27.41 (+10.4%) Last Traded: RM24.82 Significant Improvement at F&B Thailand Hold THIS REPORT IS STRICTLY FOR INTERNAL CIRCULATION ONLY* Damia Othman Tel: +603-2167-9602 damia@ta.com.my Review • Fraser and Neave Holdings Berhad’s (F&N) 9MFY17 adjusted net profit came in within ours and consensus full-year earnings estimates at 72% and 79% respectively. • • • • Excluding exceptional items of RM16.3mn, the 9MFY17 adjusted net profit dropped by 19.7% YoY to RM320.0mn due to poor performance from F&B Malaysia operations. 9MFY17 group’s EBIT declined by 27.1% YoY to RM325.8mn. F&B Malaysia EBIT declined by 36.6% YoY to RM132.2mn attributable to i) decline in F&B Malaysia revenue by 9.0% YoY, ii) higher input costs i.e. sugar and restructuring costs which was partly offset by iii) lower trade spending and iv) better profit from export sales. Note that net margin declined by 0.8p.pts YoY to 9.7% for 9MFY17. On the flipside, F&B Thailand 9MFY17 EBIT improved by 22.3% to RM196.4mn as revenue improved by 9.0% YoY. Factors which contributed to higher revenue were i) weak MYR against THB and ii) expansion of brand visibility in Indochina markets which lead to growth in Thailand’s exports by double digit percentile. While F&B Thailand EBIT increase was due to i) low inputs costs e.g. milk based products and ii) recovery of withholding tax from royalties paid. 3QFY17 adjusted net profit declined by 14.8% YoY to RM82.5mn given the poor performance from the F&B Malaysia division.

To recap, we forecasted full-year core net loss of RM19mn (consensus: RM22mn profit). The disappointment largely stemmed from higher-than-expected JV losses and depreciation costs. Additionally, lower-than-expected interest income exacerbated the losses. The weak performance was due to prevailing trends since 1H15, namely, a depleted orderbook and high fixed overheads. Sequential losses expanded to RM10mn (1Q17:RM5.5mn), partially due to higher staff costs. This was attributed to hiring of manpower for the new RM1bn Bokor project, 7 3. 9. www.taonline.com.my SHARE INFORMATION Listing Code Stock Code Listing Share Cap (m) Market Cap (RM 'mn) Par Value (RM) 52-wk Hi/Lo (RM) 12-mth Avg Daily Vol ('000) Estimated Free Float (%) Beta Major Shareholders (%) MISC Bhd Technip S.A MMHE MK 5186 Main Market 1,600 1,136 0.50 1.16/0.71 559 10.5 2.2 66.5 8.5 FORECAST REVISION Major projects that left MMHE’s yard in 1H17 include F12 Kumang, BesarA, and Baronia. With the exception of Besar-A (completion: Feb-18), the rest of MMHE’s major projects will be completed in 2017, including FLNG2, Dangote Calm Buoy, and Benchamas 2 Turret. Fortunately, MMHE’s Bokor CPP will commence its first steel cut in 2H18, and thus, partially cushion FY18 earnings. Currently, this project is at the preliminary engineering stage, which implies limited earnings recognition until progress picks up in end-18 to 2019. Recall that this is due to MMHE’s conservative accounting policy, where profit recognition is backloaded for major EPCIC projects. Therefore, both Bokor and Sepat Phase 2A have yet to recognize profits. On a brighter note, the marine division is bustling with activity, as evident from completion of repair and maintenance jobs for 47 vessels. Besides that, this segment also secured 48 vessel jobs in 1H17. Key Takeaways from Analyst Briefing MMHE’s outstanding orderbook inched up higher to RM1.6bn (Dec-16: 560mn) after having secured the chunky RM1bn Bokor CPP contract in Apr-17. Additionally, the group secured RM120mn worth of call out contracts YTD (FY16: RM420mn). Besides Bokor, the other significant jobs include 4 packages from RAPID’s refinery and cracker. On a related note, moving forward, the group is now aiming to secure jobs for petrochemical plants at RAPID.

The group will now kick start the final project for its Yard Optimization (YO) program, namely Drydock 3 at West Yard.

  16. TA Securities 4-Aug-17 A Member of the TA Group caters for smallish jobs to reduce congestion at MMHE ’s West Yard. Impact We raise our assumptions for depreciation costs and JV losses. Additionally, we lower our interest income estimate. As a result, our FY17/18/19 earnings estimates are revised to RM32mn loss/22mn loss/5mn profit (previous: RM19mn loss/21mn profit/43mn profit). Valuation We lower our target CY18 P/B multiple to 0.5x (previous: 0.6x) in light of weaker-than-expected earnings and orderbook trajectory. This is to account for the strong likelihood of further yard impairments in end-FY17. Furthermore, a largely empty yard, dismal orderbook prospects, and slow recognition of Bokor CPP imply prolonged earnings headwinds. Nevertheless, we believe the negatives are largely priced in. This is given the significant share price dip of 30% since 1Q17 results release in endApr-17. Therefore, we upgrade the stock to a Hold (previous: Sell) with lower TP of RM0.78 (previous: RM0.87).

Sunway Clio Property comprises: 1) a 19-storey, four-star hotel with 401 rooms known as Sunway Clio Hotel, 2) a 3-storey retail space with net lettable area (NLA) of 88,384 sq ft known as Sunway Pyramid West, and 3) a multi-storey car park with 732 bays – see Appendix 1. Sunway Clio Property is connected to Sunway Pyramid Mall through a pedestrian sky bridge and underground car park. The proposed acquisition is expected to be completed by 4QCY17 (or 2QFY18). Signed Hotel Lease and Car Park Tenancy Agreement with Sponsor The Sunway Clio Property is an income-generating property with decent occupancy rates of 71.6% for hotel operations and 88.2% for the Retail Space. Post disposal, the hotel will be leased back by Sunway Bhd with an initial tenure of 10 years and a renewal option of further 10 years. Under the lease agreement, rental will be based on minimum rental of RM8mn (Year 1-2) and 11mn (Year 3- 10) or Variable Rent for that fiscal year – whichever higher. See Appendix 2 for total rental computation. Besides, Sunway Bhd has also entered into a car park tenancy agreement with Sunway REIT for a period of three years commencing from the date of completion of the acquisition, with the option of renewal of a further 3 years. Sunway Bhd will pay Sunway REIT rental on monthly basis, based on 20% of gross operating revenue + 95% of gross operating profit. See Appendix 3 for rental computation. According to the announcement, Sunway Bhd is providing Sunway REIT with a guaranteed property income of RM20.2mn per annum for a period of four years. Should there be any shortfall, Sunway Bhd will pay the amount equivalent to the difference between the actual total annual property income achieved and the guaranteed property income. i n www.taonline.com.my Share Information Bloomberg Code SWB MK Stock Name Sunway Stock Code 5211 Listing Main Market Share Cap (mn) 2046.6 Market Cap (RMmn) 8841.5 Par Value 1.00 52-wk Hi/Lo (RM) 4.40/2.84 12-mth Avg Daily Vol ('000 shrs) 1816.30 Estimated Free Float (%) 29.5 Beta 0.5 Major Shareholders (%) Sungei Way Corp (56.4) EPF (5.4) Forecast Revision FY17 FY18 0.0 (1.3) Net profit (RMm) 558.5 599.7 Consensus (RMm) 561.6 599.3 TA's / Consensus (%) 99.4 100.1 Forecast Revision (%) Previous Rating Sell (Maintained) Financial Indicators FY17 FY18 Net Debt / Equity (%) 39.8 36.6 FCPS (sen) 20.3 14.2 Price / CFPS (x) 9.1 13.1 ROA (%) 3.0 3.2 NTA/Share (RM) 1.5 1.6 Price/NTA (x) 1.3 1.2 Share Performance (%) Unlocking asset value and freeing up cash We view this as a positive move to unlock asset value and free up cash flow to finance the construction of new development projects and property investments in the pipeline. According to the announcement, proceeds from the asset disposal will be partly used for repayment of bank borrowings (81% of proceeds) and for working capital (19% of proceeds). Post disposal, the group’s net gearing is expected to reduce to 0.47x from 0.41x previously.

The disposal will give rise to a disposal gain of RM29.4mn. Assuming the asset injection exercise to be completed in 2QFY18, we trimmed FY18-19 core earnings estimates (excluding disposal gain) by 1-2% to account for the RM20.2mn rental expenses (based on guaranteed rent), partly offset by lower interest expenses.
