Sime Darby: Maintain Hold - SC Sticks to No GO; Awaits Court Hearing
  • SC maintains earlier decision. The Securities Commission (SC) has maintained that Sime does not need to make a mandatory general offer (GO) for shares in Eastern & Oriental (E&O; Not Rated), according to StarBiz last Saturday.
  • However, a court hearing is still pending, on whether Sime will need to fork out another ~MYR1.8b in cash for the remaining 70% stake in E&O.
  • Under a worst case scenario, privatising E&O will still be earnings accretive but deprives Sime of a valuable war chest for other more profitable ventures. We maintain our HOLD call and unchanged TP of MYR10.80 based on 16x CY13 PER.
