Monday, 02 June 2014 10:42 KUALA LUMPUR (May 2): CIMB Research has maintained its Add rating on Eastern & Oriental Bhd at RM2.48 with a higher target price of RM2.99 (from RM2.75) and said it was positive on the acquisition of 110 million shares by E & O’s managing director Datuk Terry Tham from Sime Darby Bhd. In a note May 30, Terrence Wong of CIMB Research said that the acquisition showed strong conviction and commitment to E&O. “We view this vote of confidence by Datuk Terry positively, as the purchase price is at a 22% premium to E&O’s Wednesday closing price.” He added that this would allow the Penang government to draw a greater sense of comfort that the landmark Seri Tanjung Pinang 2 (STP2) project would be carried out by E&O and hopefully accelerate its approval process. The 110 million shares represented a 9.9% stake in E&O and was acquired by Tham for a total cash consideration of RM319 million. “We make no changes to our earnings per share, Add rating or target basis (30% discount to realizable net asset value (RNAV), though we raise our target price after lifting RNAV by 9% to RM4.28 to factor in an imminent start to STP2 reclamation work,” said Wong. At 10:07 am, E&O rose 3 sen to RM2.54 per share with a total of 437,000 shares traded. |
