KUALA LUMPUR (Nov 7): Affin Investment Bank Research has maintained its ‘add’ call on Petronas Chemicals Group Bhd (PetChem) at RM7.12 with unchanged target price (TP) of RM7.50 as the research house is neutral on the proposed divestment.

In a note today, Affin IB said the proposed divestment is inline with the group’s portfolio optimisation strategy.

It said the Vietnam PVC business had minimal contribution to the group’s earnings.

“We make no change to our earnings forecast, ‘add’ rating and TP of RM7.50 based on 15 times CY14 earnings per share,” said Affin IB research analyst Issac Chow.

“We continue to like PetChem for its strong parentage, good governance, experienced management and cashflow prowess.”

Yesterday, the integrated chemicals producer announced it would divest its 93.11% stake in Phu My Plastics and Chemical Co Ltd, a Vietnam based PVC resin manufacturer to Asahi Glass Co Ltd and Mitsubishi Corp.
