New plant to support larger order book
We look forward to more earnings growth prospects, namely PLS orders from its existing and new customers (i.e. solar and EV). Furthermore, we expect the potentially larger orderbook in near future will be supported by additional production capacity at its upcoming, second plant at Batu Kawan, Penang. It is expected to be ready by 2H21 with estimated capex of MYR77m.

FY20 core earnings were in-line – at 102%/104% of our/street’s estimates.
We adjust our FY21-22E earnings by 1-2% and nudge up our TP to
MYR6.75 (+5sen), pegged to an unchanged 49x FY22E PER at +2.5SD. We
upgrade to BUY (from HOLD) as we are positive on Greatech sustaining its solid order book and there are growth catalysts from new orders/customers. Potential capital upside is now 11%.
Lifted by PLS orders
4Q20 core net profit was MYR30.3m (+20% QoQ, +65% YoY) – taking FY20
core earnings to MYR92.3m (+61% YoY). The strong YoY earnings in 4Q20
were attributed to higher revenue recognition of production line system
(PLS) orders from First Solar (FSLR US; Not Rated) and Lordstown Motors
(RIDE US; Not Rated; i.e. on engineering design works). Notably, the latter has also contributed to the Group’s favourable margin mix. Kenanga Investors Bhd. Earnings, however, were partly pulled back by decrease in revenue for single automated equipment orders and provision of parts and services. All in all, 4 Feb 21’s order book was a strong MYR351.2m and expected to last until 1H22. We understand that a bulk of the order book was contributed by Lordstown Motors (about 68% or MYR239m), followed by FSLR

Statistics
catalysts from its battery division while supported by stable orders from its solar division. GTT’s FY21E PER of 31x derives a PEG of only 0.6x.
Mainly lifted by new customers
2Q20 core net profit was MYR17.6m (-8% QoQ, +46% YoY) – taking 1H20 core earnings to MYR36.7m (+41% YoY). The strong growth of 2Q20 bottomline (YoY) was largely driven by: (i) GTT’s new customers, i.e. single automated equipment for its EV/battery-related products and medical devices; and (ii) some revenue improvements from solar divisions’ production line system and provision of parts and services.

Orderbook – From big to bigger
We note that GTT’s current orderbook is at a strong MYR295m (end-Jan 2020: MYR215m) where approx. MYR100m was contributed by its newly- secured production line system (PLS) order from its existing EV customer. We are positive on GTT’s first PLS order from this customer as it may pave the way for more job wins in the near-future. All in all, we raise our FY20-22 earnings estimates by 11/45/46% after mainly accounting for higher contributions from its new customers/segments (EV and medical devices; Figure 2) via sustained new job wins.
Raising TP on brighter earnings outlook
FY20E PER. The higher valuation is reflective of GTT’s sustained earnings from the solar division and strong earnings growth upsides from its new EV and medical devices customers. We also note that its plan for listing transfer into the Main Market in on track for 2020.

Please read the Edge report.
Likewise, Supermax and Kossan are expected to see a 260% and 207% q-o-q growth respectively this coming quarter to meet their earnings consensus.
Supermax’s market capitalisation is currently at RM31.28 billion. Assuming a P/E ratio of 25 times, which is considerably high for the manufacturing sector, Supermax needs to make an annual net profit of RM1.25 billion, or an average quarterly profit of about RM312 million to justify the share price of RM 23.

TIATE COVERAGE
Greatech Technology (GREATEC MK)
Direct Proxy To Growth With Unique Positioning For Fourth Industrial Revolution
Greatech offers an unique proposition beyond the typical ATE, which also automates processes in production lines. Its strategic exposure in the solar, medical and automotive industries offers better dynamics to weather cyclicality vs peers. Besides the new facility in Bayan Lepas, the group has also started construction of its Batu Kawan plant and new offices in the US, with completion targeted in 2021, to support growth beyond. Initiate coverage with BUY and target price of RM4.80.
Still ample growth with strong orderbook visibility until 2021. First Solar (FS), the biggest revenue contributor to Greatech Technology (Greatech), is still transitioning its high-performance, eco-efficient Series 6 photovoltaic (PV) modules from the Series 4 PV modules. FS reiterated in its May 20 briefing that the ongoing Series 6 capacity ramp-up remains unchanged with capex of US$450m-550m in 2020. This is supported by an intact 12.3GW contracted backlogs and a 7.5GW in mid-to-late stage opportunity pipeline. As the largest automated equipment supplier for FS, we believe Greatech could continue to ride on FS’ growth, as evidenced by its strong ytd orderbook of RM215m.
Portfolio diversification with exposure to strategic sectors to smoothen cyclicality. The group has made efforts to venture into other sectors beyond the solar industry which has been its bread-and-butter business. Note that its R&D activities for the assembly of battery modules and packs for automotive applications are translating into orders now. Meanwhile, under the medical segment, new R&D projects involving automation solutions for diabetes and inhaler related products, will contribute to revenue from 2020. This portfolio exposure, which offers the blend of high growth (robust demand for solar energy) and resiliency (EV battery and medical), provides the group flexibility in adjusting to cyclicality.
Capacity relocation and expansion to support strong earnings growth. Besides the new operational facility - Plot 287A (built-up 75,000sf) - which will be used to cater to new customers in different sectors, Greatech has started construction of its Batu Kawan plant with completion targeted in Feb 21. The group will move from its rented premises to the 130,000sf plant which is at close proximity to the group’s head office in Bayan Lepas. The group is also setting up offices in the US and Europe to provide engineering sales and service support to customers; with expenses at <RM10m but providing huge door-opening potential. The new business from the EV battery and medical segments, with potential revenue of >RM50m in 2020, is a testament to it.
Initiate coverage with BUY and target price of RM4.80, based on 30.0x 2021F PE, which implies a PEG ratio of 0.7x. Note that the ascribed PE is also at 10% discount from the industry forward PE. Its unique value proposition as opposed to peers has made it a scarce ATE player in the technology space. Resilient earnings base, superior growth outlook and its new business venture will support a 3-year (2018-21) net profit CAGR of 46%. The stock is currently trading close to +1SD above its the industry’s 5-year mean PE of 24.0x, but we believe its above-sector growth alongside strategic portfolio proposition would justify a higher valuation, not to mention the valuation re-rating from a potential transfer to the Bursa Main Market in 4Q20.
