*** Short trade (Sell): Biosensors. Share price 1.16. (CFD Short Trade)

Biosensors has broken support and 1.185 convincingly today. Has closed at 1.16 today. Has broken down head and shoulder neckline support formed at 1.185. Note that it has also been supported above 1.185 since Dec last year till today but broke down today. Cautious. More downside to 1.15 then 1.10 might be possible. Possible to accumulate short positions below 1.185 level and take profit near 1.10 support.
Buy Stop at 1.205.
 
Maybank KE: 13 March 2013- Biosensors Int’l: Turning More Conservative; Downgrade to Hold, TP $1.28
We cut FY3/13-15F net profit forecasts by 9-11% and reduce our TP to SGD1.28 as we turn more cautious. We thus downgrade the stock to a Hold, seeing limited upside to our revised TP.
Ø      We believe that Terumo may struggle to regain market share in the next 1-2 quarters. M&A seems likely in 2013 but without any specifics, it could be tough to make a call on whether it would be positive or negative.
Ø       While Biosensors looks cheap at 12.6x FY3/14F PER, we do not expect its licensing revenue with Terumo to last for forever. This is the key reason why our TP is lower than consensus. We value it separately using DCF but we have attributed a fair 18x PER multiple on its core business. 
 

*** Monitor - Short Term Speculative Trade: GSH Corp. Share price 0.080. (Not for holding, short term with tight stop loss)

At this level, it has also just crossed above BOTH the 20 DAY MA (Green line) and the 200 DAY MA (Dotted blue line), which can signal short term uptrend in placed. More confirmation needed though and it has to cross 0.081 and 0.082 for more serious buyers to bring it higher. If that happens, short term target to 0.084 then 0.09. Currently at Top 5 Volume. If it stays and closes above 0.08, more potential upside possible and new support at 0.08.
Stop loss at 0.076 tightly

More upside if the 0.455 and 0.46 sellers get lifted. Will average up on this break out with a near term target of 0.48 to 0.500. As long as 0.45 becomes the new support upon break out and holds, we are bullish in the near term.

StanChart – 22 May 2013
n We visited Myanmar and met the management of Fraser & Neave (F&N), Myanmar Brewery‟s controlling shareholders.
n The country‟s extended isolation has led to a shortage of basic consumer items – and a thirst for beer. Myanmar could generate 47% of Thai Beverage (Thai Bev)‟s beer volume growth in 2013-17.
n We consider Thai Bev an excellent proxy for the opportunities in Myanmar, despite rising competition. Thai Bev has a 29% stake in F&N and we believe there is a strong likelihood of a restructuring. We estimate Myanmar Brewery would represent 8% of Thai Bev‟s NAV under the restructuring scenario.

OCBC - United Envirotech: Inks another project in Jiangsu - 2nd April 2013
United Envirotech Ltd (UEL) has recently inked an agreement worth RMB200m (S$40m) with the local government of Siyang County, Jiangsu Province, China for TOT (Transfer-Operate-Transfer) and BOT (Built-Operate-Transfer) projects in an industrial park for the textile industry. Management intends to finance its latest investment using proceeds from the previous convertible bond issue to KRR and bank financing. Based on its usual 40% equity/60% debt financing model, UEL would need around S$5.6m for Phase 1 of the TOT project, which should not be an issue as it is currently sitting on ~S$63.2m of cash (as at 31 Dec 2012). In light of the latest investment, we bump up our FY14 estimates for revenue by 1.5% and earnings by 4.9%; this in turn raises our fair value from S$0.88 to S$0.90, still based on 13x FY14F EPS. Maintain BUY.

****** Trading Buy: Yongnam. Share price 0.34.

Yongnam has consolidated below 0.34 for about a week and again broke above this 0.34 immediate resistance today. High seen today is 0.35 currently.

Stop loss below 0.32.
 
Maybank KE: Yongnam Holdings: Positioning Ahead of Contract Wins; Buy TP $0.43
YNH SP | Mkt Cap USD334.9m | ADTV USD2.9m
Ø  Reiterate BUY ahead of 2H13. Our TP of SGD0.43 is pegged to 10x FY13F.
Ø  1Q13 results were largely within expectation. Revenue grew 22% yoy. Profit was flat yoy, but this was in comparison to exceptional margins in the same quarter last year.
Ø  We expect margins to pick up on execution of strutting orderbook which has higher margins and the commencement of new contract wins. Management is gunning for several contracts in 2H13 which will replenish orderbook substantially.
 
 CIMB - A late bloomer  - OUTPERFORM - Maintained | S$0.33 - Tgt. S$0.36
After four quarters of declining revenue and profitability, Yongnam’s return to growth in 1Q13 is a breath of fresh air. We think that its share price outperformance YTD still has legs as the Myanmar project is Yongnam's to lose. At 17% of our FY13 forecast, 1Q13 net profit was in line with our expectation as we stick to our assumption that 65% of this year’s earnings will only come through in 2H13. Our EPS estimates and target price (still at 6x CY14 P/E, its 3-year mean) are unchanged. We maintain an Outperform as the group is poised to land some mega accretive projects.

**** Monitor the Breakout Closely: Thai Bev. Share price 0.64.

Currently in Top 3 volume, Thbev looks set to test the 0.65 resistance level which was the high last month. Tested 2 times at 0.65 last month but failed to cross above then. Traders looking for a breakout can consider taking long positions at these level.  A break above 0.65 can see it go to 0.700 in the near term. We would add our long position on this breakout and take profit around the 0.68 to 0.700 region.
Stop loss at 0.635 if the breakout does occur.

**** The Unstoppable: Ezion. Share price 2.26. (Trading Buy)

Ezion has broken up resistance level at 2.23 level. Momentum still looks as strong as ever as investors accumulate on any temporary dips. At this level, it is currently at an all time high again and looks good to head up further to test 2.40 level and find new high. A break above 2.30 can see more upside as long as 2.23 remains as new support level.
Stop loss at 2.18
 
Maybank KE - Ezion Holdings: Entering the High Growth Years; Buy TP $2.56 (10 May 2013)
EZI SP | Mkt Cap USD1.7b | ADTV USD12m
Ø  Maintain BUY on Ezion as we raise our valuation multiple to 15x FY13F PER (from 13x), TP SGD2.56. We believe that previous concerns on high gearing have mostly dissipated as Ezion demonstrates astute use of its capital.
Ø  1Q13 results were within expectations. Our forecast of 51% growth in FY13F EPS and a CAGR of 40% over FY13-15F remain well on track to be met. These high growth expectations are primarily backed by secured charter contracts limiting the risk of major misses.
Ø  We see sequential quarterly growth as more liftboat units are deployed. Net gearing has risen to 0.83x in 1Q13 and is expected to rise further in subsequent quarters.
 
CIMB Ezion Holdings - Cruise control (09/05)
At 24% of our FY13 forecast, 1Q13 results were actually above expectations, as stronger quarters are anticipated with five more liftboats/service rigs to be added through the year to its current 12. Catalysts could come from stronger-than-expected orders.  1Q core EPS was 20% above our expectation (11% above consensus) from higher gross margins and other income. We increase our FY13-15 core EPS by 3-8% to incorporate recent service-rig contracts, the divestment of its OMSA JV, contributions from marine supply bases and higher EBIT margins. Maintain Outperform with a higher target price following our EPS upgrade, still based on blended P/E and P/BV valuations. 

*** Potential Trade Setup: Olam. Share price 1.81. (Broken up 200 DAY MA)

Olam has broken up above the 1.80 level today. A key thing to note is that it has Broken above the 200 DAY MA - 1.78 level (Dotted blue line) which can signify a longer term recovery is in place. You can see that it has been trading below the dotted blue line mostly ever since Mar 2011. More upside in the short term if it stays above the 1.80 level.  As long as 1.80 holds as the new support, Olam can find a new consolidation above it. Top 30 Volume seen currently.
Stop loss 1.77.

Cosco Corp has indeed broken the 0.800 psychological support level today. Now at 0.795. Possible to increase short positions on this break down as mentioned earlier. Buy stop at 0.815.
 
Posted yesterday – 6 May 2013
Cosco Corp has broken below key 0.855 support level that it has held above since the whole of 2012 to last Friday. Today’s sharp drop is mainly due to weaker than expected results announced and a flurry of Sell calls from analysts. Technically, support has now turned resistance at 0.85 level. As long as 0.85 remains as a resistance level and Cosco does not go above it, still bearish in the short to midterm. Next support at 0.800. A break below this 0.800 can see it go lower further probably to test 0.700 level. Will increase short positions on this break of 0.800 psychological support level. Note that the low in Oct 2008 after the global financial crisis is at 0.625 level.
Buy stop at 0.86.

OCBC: Cosco Corp (S’pore): Downgrade to SELL - missed expectations
Summary: COSCO Corp (S’pore)’s 1Q13 revenue and net profit attributable to shareholders came in at S$733m (-25% YoY) and S$9.7m (-65% YoY) respectively. Turnover from shipyard operations, consisting of ship repair and shipbuilding, decreased by 26% YoY to S$719m in 1Q13 (1Q12: S$966m), while turnover for dry bulk shipping and other businesses increased by 8% YoY to S$13.8m (1Q12: S$12.8m). All in all, 1Q13 performance was disappointing with PATMI forming only about 9-10% of ours and consensus’ FY13F estimates. We now cut our FY13F-14F PATMI estimates by 50-60% and pare our fair value estimates to S$0.76 (previously S$0.90) on 1.3x P/B. We expect the street to do the same. Downgrade from Hold to SELL
 
Maybank KE: Cosco Corp: Big Earnings Miss; Maintain SELL, TP $0.73
Ø  Reiterate SELL, TP of SGD0.73 pegged to 1.3x trough P/BV. A disastrous set of 1Q13 results with revenue of SGD733.0m (-25% YoY, -13% QoQ) and PATMI of SGD9.7m (-65% YoY, -59% QoQ). Net profit made up only 9% of our and 10% of consensus’ full-year forecast.Ø  Cosco expects margins to contract further into the subsequent quarters due to lower-price contracts in its orderbook, rising labour cost and appreciating Chinese Yuan. Net orderbook stood at USD6.4b with only USD254m of orders secured YTD.Ø  We slash our FY13-14F earnings forecasts by 33-43% on the weak 1Q13 results and expect similar aggressive earnings cuts by consensus. Valuation is too rich at current levels given its declining profits and weak execution.

Ø OSIM is announcing its 1Q13 results on 7 May after market close. We are expecting net profit of around SGD25.5m for the quarter (up 15% yoy), on double-digit sales growth.
Ø The uAngel has proven to be very popular according to our channel checks, and will likely boost YoY sales growth. However, the full effect will only be apparent from the 2nd quarter onward.
Ø Our TP of SGD2.60 remains a Street high, reflecting our bullishness for 2013. OSIM is our top pick within the Singapore consumer sector and we reiterate BUY.
