Company Name: HG METAL MANUFACTURING LTD
Research House: NRA CapitalPrice Call: BUYTarget Price: 0.138



NRA Capital in a Nov 29 research report says: "Revenue in 4QFY11 jumped 76% y-o-y (-2% q-o-q) to $66.1 million due to higher sales volume. Operating profit improved by about 350% to $1.7 million from a year ago, but declined 27% sequentially.

"Thanks to $1.5 million contribution from associate, HG Metal ("HGM") recorded $1.4 million PATMI, compared to $10.2 million loss last year arising from massive inventory write-down. HGM declared 0.6 cents of interim dividend, beating our estimate of 0.25 cents. We adjust FY2012-2013 earnings 20% lower.

"We keep our valuation method unchanged, pegging at 1x FY12NTA and thus deriving target price of 13.8 cents (prev 15.1 cents). Potential return is 69% (62% capital appreciation and 7% dividend yield). MAINTAIN OVERWEIGHT."

HG Metal Manufacturing rated 'overweight' by NRA Capital

Stock Name: HG Metal
Company Name: HG METAL MANUFACTURING LTD
Research House: NRA CapitalPrice Call: BUYTarget Price: 0.15



NRA Capital in a July 19 research report says: "HG Metal ("HGM") is a leading steel stockist in Singapore. HGM suffered a long stretch of losses in FY2009 and FY2010, but that is finally over. It staged a slower recovery than its peers, partly due to internal restructuring and the fact it was over leveraged. It reported a remarkable set of results in 1HFY11.

"We view the risk reward ratio for the counter to be attractive, given (1) stock is trading at historical lows, (2) attractive 5.5x FY11 PER and 5.4x FY12 PER, (3) 30% discount to book value, and (4) long term synergy from OCS.

"Our target price of 15 cents is based on 1x FY12 NTA, representing an upside potential of 58%. OVERWEIGHT (initiating coverage)."
