Q&M Dental - Q&M Dental Group rated 'buy' by CIMB

Stock Name: Q&M Dental
Company Name: Q & M DENTAL GROUP (S) LIMITED
Research House: CIMB

CIMB in a Jan 24 research report says: "Q&M is in a sweet spot with 37 clinics and two Dental Centres island-wide to tap the population's dentistry needs, while its two Dental Centres yield higher revenue intensity.


"Investors have over the last six months taken over two healthcare groups (Parkway and Thomson Medical) at high premiums. Like Q&M, these names have strong brand equities, solid patient volumes, revenue & cash flows, and overseas ventures.


"Target price of 83 cents, based sum-of-the-parts valuation. Q&M offers investors value at 15x CY12 P/E (cheaper than peers) against our 3-year core earnings CAGR forecast of 30%. We like it for its strong recurring earnings in the domestic market and international expansion plans. BUY (initiating coverage)."
