TLP Investment Highlights- AmInvestment Bank

We maintain BUY on YTL Power International (YTLP) with an unchanged SOP-based fair value of RM5.10/share. Although we have raised YTLP Seraya’s earnings, our fair value for YTLP is unchanged on lower asset value for Wessex Water due to its losses. Our fair value implies FY25F PE of 13x - at parity to its 2-year average. We ascribe a neutral 3-star ESG rating to YTLP.

YTLP’s 1HFY24 results were 35% above our forecast and 14% above consensus. YTLP exceeded our expectations due to stronger-than-expected earnings from YTLP Seraya in Singapore. We have raised YTLP’s FY24E net profit by 35% to account for this.

YTLP Seraya has been recording a pre-tax profit of RM1bil per quarter in the past 3 quarters. We believe that YTLP Seraya is benefiting from the fall in gas costs and retail contracts, which have locked-in profit margins. YTLP also enjoys stronger contribution from YTLP Seraya as the SGD has been appreciating against MYR. According to Bloomberg, average exchange rate was S$1.00: RM3.45 in 1HFY24 vs. S$1.00: RM3.25 in 1HFY23.

Pre-tax profit of YTLP Seraya in Singapore surged to RM2.1bil in 1HFY24 from RM591.4mil in 1HFY23. Pre-tax profit margin rose to 27.3% in 1HFY24 from 8.6% in 1HFY23.

The water and sewerage division (Wessex Water) swung into a pre-tax loss of RM104.2mil in 1HFY24 in contrast to a pre-tax profit of RM9.3mil in 1HFY23. This was due to higher interest expenses from inflation-linked bonds. On a quarterly basis, pre-tax loss of the division widened to RM69.5mil in 2QFY24 from RM34.8mil in 1QFY24.

Pre-tax losses of the mobile broadband unit (mainly YES network) narrowed to RM137.5mil in 1HFY24 from RM155.9mil in 1HFY23 due to increased billings from various projects such as the construction of base stations.

YTLP is currently trading at an attractive FY25F PE of 10x, which is lower than its 2-year average of 13x.
............................................................

YTLP plus AI Data Centre in collaboration with NVIDIA, FY 25 PE should be at least 18x.

Don't you know Singapore is moving up to clean green energy from hydro, biofuel and solar in near future and gas fired power plant will be phased out one day in Singapore,?

Last time in Chua Chu Kang and Lim Chu Kang there were pig farms in Singapore. Now no more as they were phased out to Indonesia. So will be gas fired polluting power plants finally phased out
How can a City of so many Billionaires and Multi Millionaires allow pollution? Like fossil power that pollutes?
So Singapore going to get clean energy directly from Sarawak. Abang Jo also asked Singapore to setup Data Centers in Sarawak as well.
Now we see in many Apt flats in Singapore where Ev charger stations have been installed
So like pig farms all future polluting industries will be phased out
Latest news from Singapore. They will impose flying out tax for planes using green biofuel
Biofuel?
It will come from Jtiasa's 206,000 acres of palm oil
Already 171,000 acres of palm oil fully matured
And 171,000 acres is 97% of Singapore landmass of 177,000 acres
Look at the bright biofuel of jtiasa and the sunset industry of fossil fuel just like those dirty pig farms phased out
Who knows?
Singapore might well attract Trillionaires to its Clean Green City State one fine day

Biofuel replacing fossil fuel in Singapore

Pig farming phased out sets a precedent for all other polluting industries to be phased out eventually

See

“Taking into account the land constraints in Singapore and looking forward, the government said the land was needed for housing, and pigs were causing land and water pollution,” recalled Dr Ngiam Tong Tau, who was Director of Primary Production at that time. “Cabinet then decided that pigs had no place in Singapore, and we had to phase them out.” Forced to confront these environmental and economic trade-offs, the decision to end pig farming was made in 1984, despite rosy production figures.

You cannot phase out power generation and import power from Sarawak. The very simple reason is for national security.

For those involved with calculating carbon foorprint should know NG are the least in CO2 eq emission compare with biofuel whereby the CPO carbon footprint is high due to CO2 eq emission assigned to land use change

If you want a clean fuel then most likely you can use hydropower, solar power or windfarm excess power to produce green hydrogen and then this hydrogen can be piped by NG pipe line to Singapore to run the hydrogen power plant in Singapore.

YTL & YTLPOWR: A Powerhouse Performance - Is This Stock a Must-Have in Your Portfolio?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Author: KingKKK | Publish date: Fri, 23 Feb 2024, 7:54 AM

Dragon328 has written a comprehensive article about YTL and YTLPOWR earnings yesterday, the details in the link below.

YTL & YTL Power - Ended Year 2023 with a Bang

I will summarize his article into pointers below:

1. Superb earnings: YTL Power's net profit was RM845 million, a surge by 325% against similar quarter last year. PowerSeraya, Wessex Water, and Jordan Attarat Power were the main profit drivers.

2. YTL Power is worth minimum RM6.30: dragon328 said that It should at least trade at 15x PER or RM6.30 per share to be comparable with Tenaga which has similar profit level of over RM3.0 billion.

3. YTL is worth RM4.00: dragon328 said that it should be trading at PER of about 20x (to be on par with Sunway) or RM4.00.

My view:

1. Agreed, YTL Power and YTL are both undervalued at the current price level. The article by dragon328 is great, and his speed in producing it is superb!

2. After reporting strong earnings, NVIDIA's share price surged by 16%, breaking some world records. Details can be found in the news below:


(NVDA) Nvidia Tops Meta Record With $277 Billion Jump in Value - Bloomberg

I think the price direction will follow NVIDIA's for both YTL and YTLPower.

3. If you think AI and Data Centers are already over just because YTL and YTLPower have increased significantly, you may be assuming that the AI and Data Center businesses have already peaked. This is similar to 30 years ago when Microsoft Office began revolutionizing how computers work; some people were saying, 'Oh, Microsoft's share price has already risen significantly, let's go back to using typewriters.

John Templeton said

"Bull market is born in pessimism; grows up in skepticism; matures in optimism and dies in euphoria

The best time to buy is during maximum pessimism. And the best time to sell is during market euphoria

HLIB Price Target : RM 5.55 Maintain BUY

YTLP reported a strong core PATMI of RM850.8m for 2QFY24 (-6.5% QoQ, +1.8x YoY) and RM1.8bn for 1HFY24 (+2.7x YoY), above HLIB FY24 forecast (55.3%) and consensus (61.6%), mainly driven by the sustained strong contribution from SG PowerSeraya, contrary to consensus concerns. We expect another record high FY24 earnings, to be underpinned by continued strong PowerSeraya performance and maiden contribution from Attarat Power. Maintain BUY with a higher

TP: RM5.55 (from RM5.15) based on 10% discount to FD SOP: RM6.16.

Don’t expect TSH dividend to increase in near future. Even TSH sold some land to clear all the debts, the company is expecting to use the cash and even debts for planting expansion again, which is capex intensive. So there is limited cash for dividend in near future. Dividend will only come in after 7 yrs when the capex is over and the plant tree start producing fruits. This is in the situation when some shouted jtiasa 7 yrs ago (2016, debts 1.3bil) at RM2.50 at the initial planting expansion stage. Now 7 yrs later (2024), jtiasa start to paying off debts and tree producing good fruits. Company will start to pay good dividend coming years with all the free cash. If you are interested in plantation stock, Jtiasa will be prefer pick now, or TSH will be GOOD 7 yrs later in 2031.

TSH already Sold Bulugan lands for Rm731.09 Millions & CASH OF RM465 MILLIONS ALREADY RECEIVED

SO CASH ALREADY SET ASIDE FOR CAPEX PLUS NO NEED BANK INTEREST EXPENSE TSH FREE CASH FLOW CAN NOW TURN INTO MORE DIVIDEND PAYOUT

PLUS TSH RECEIVES RM3.15 MILLIONS FREE CASH DIVIDEND FROM INNO

ITS LANDS IN IKN NUSANTARA MEANWHILE APPRECIATES UP BY THE MONTH, WEEK, DAY & EVERY SECOND GOING HIGHER AND HIGHER
