Following management updates, we upgrade our earnings forecasts and call to TRADING BUY with our new TP at MYR3.19 (16% upside). We expect the short-term positive sentiment to outweigh longer-term risksof lower earnings growth given the lack of new contracts and upside to opex, as forex rates may turn unfavourable. We envision a sizable contract to lift its track record/expertise higher in the value chain.
3QFY15 updates. Despite being a festive season, Yinson’s briefing yesterday was well attended by >20 analysts/fund managers. Key updates were: i) By Feb 2015, orderbook will likely be USD2.1bn (firm: USD1bn); ii) Floating, production, storage and offloading (FPSO) had 100% uptime, save for FPSO Lam Son (97.6%), which we think is within industry benchmark of >98%; iii) 100%-owned Knock Adoon’s 1-year extension had additional charter rate of USD10,000/day - we estimate an additional MYR10m profit per year (starting from 4Q) which should offset the loss of Petroleo Nautipa’s (PN) MYR15m-20m per year; iv) lower opex (by MYR6m) was due to a combination of stronger USD, timing differences and lower repair and maintenance costs on its vessels.
Ghana FPSO outcome to be known soon. We estimate a USD1bn capex and >USD2.4bn firm contract value (at 14% project IRR > min 10%) judging by the size of the very large crude carrier (VLCC) tankerYinson Genesis. We understand material earnings will flow after threeyears of conversion (FY19, or early 2018 ie the first oil target of the field).We gather funding is in place and estimate that a ~MYR2.6bn debt is within an increase of its gearing to max 2.5x from 0.33x. If this contract is secured, Yinson could have room for an additional small contract.
Forecast changes. We upgrade FY15F/FY16F/FY17F earnings by 34%/17%/6% as we input 9-month contribution of PN in FY15, higher revenue from Knock Adoon and lower costs estimates. Although FY16F would see full contributions from Lam Son (vs eight months currently) and higher Knock Adoon revenue, we expect earnings growth to taper off due to a reversal of 3Q’s situation – our in-house assumption of oil price recovery from 2H15 may weaken the USD rate, raising costs.
Raise to TRADING BUY (vs Neutral), TP to MYR3.19 (from MYR2.60).Yinson had proven to be a contrarian performer in a low oil price environment, despite trading at a premium (19x P/E; 12x EV/EBITDA vs peers’ 8x EV/EBITDA). We see short-term sentiment outweighing the aforementioned longer-term risks on costs (ie USD volatility should oil prices recover) and flattish earnings growth prospects, as we expect Yinson to have a reasonable chance of securing an impending contract that could boost its earnings base three years after.
