Raising stake in Sunway South Quay.

Sunway will also repay, on behalf of SSQ, a sum of RM73.4m in cash towards the settlement of “musyarakah” capital invested by KFH in SSQ.

Positive on the acquisition. We are positive on the acquisition, as it will lead to higher future earnings of SUNWAY following higher ownership of SUNWAY in Sunway South Quay. Note that SSQ is primarily involved in the development of Sunway South Quay which is a mixed development located in the integrated township of Sunway City with remaining GDV of RM3b. Launches of project in Sunway South Quay for FY17 include Sunway Geo Residences 3 with GDV of RM400m.
Minimal impact on balance sheet. SUNWAY intends to fund the acquisition via bank borrowings and internally generated funds. Impact on balance sheet from the acquisition is expected to be minimal. We estimate net gearing of SUNWAY to be lifted marginally to 0.35x from 0.32x as at end June 2017. Meanwhile, earnings impact from the acquisition is expected to be minimal, hence we maintain our earnings estimate for FY17-18F.
