HSBC lifts CNBM (03323) to HK$9; "hold"
|
HSBC Global Research lifted its target price for CNBM (03323) to HK$9 from HK$8.5, and reiterated its "hold" rating. The research house cited management at the analyst briefing expecting volumes to be slightly lower in 1Q 2018 due to poor weather conditions in January-February, and the NPC meeting in March. It expects GP/t to be around RMB100/t in 1Q. Regarding the merger deal with Sinoma (01893), the company expects the deal to be completed by May. HSBC believes synergy in cement will come from higher market concentration and joint procurement of raw materials and power. There could also be cost savings in the engineering and new material businesses, particularly in the fiberglass segment. HSBC has not incorporated Sinoma in our estimate at this stage, and it increased its FY2018-19 GP/t assumptions by around Rmb9/t. As a result, HSBc lifted its earnings estimates by 8%/7% for 2018/19. |
