YTLP share price should be able to advanced further once their new business plans revealed to public , up to now , they never mention why they invested in Ranhill , and Data Center will become new income stream as well .. the revenue growth path is clear and they should deserve higher PE and share price beyond RM 4 ...

If company can maintain the EPS more than 10sens , which is possible as the power division is doing well ..why not RM 4 (PE 10x ) ..

YTLP meeting is schedule on 5 Dec next week. If FTSE/KLCI 30 new list is announced . Expect more upward momentum. Plus you cannot ruled out a special additional dividend announcement.
This year the interim dividend pay out is at 3.5 sen. Following YTLP sterling performance always a possibility. Just my own 2 sen view

interesting study on the positive effect of index inclusion on share price, and price movements start before announcement.

https://www.nasdaqbaltic.com/files/riga/Studiju_darbi/Bankovica-Pranevics_bak.pdf

The results show that significant abnormal returns are present on the announcement
day, and investments in these stocks would earn on average 5.1% over the subsequent
month....In addition, our results show that in both cases volatility starts to
increase a few days before the respective event.

Based on results announced last night from the other 2 utilities companies, I take a simple comparison of their market cap with YTL Power:

Petronas Chemicals - Q3 net profit RM424m, CIMB projects full year NPAT at RM2.2b
Press Metal - Q3 FY2023 net profit RM308, Hong Leong projects full FY2023 net at RM1.2b

PetChem PMetal YTLPower
FY2023 net profit RM2.2b RM1.2b RM3.4b (FY2024 June)
Market cap RM56.6b RM39.9b RM18.8b
PER 25.7x 33.2x 5.5x

Even if I take YTLP actual FY2023 net profit of RM2.0b, I will get a PER of just 9.4x. This shows that the market has significantly mispriced the share of YTLPower.

Both the earnings of Petronas Chemicals and Press Metal are more volatile than YTLPower's as the former depends very much on international crude oil prices and the spreads, while the latter depends solely on international aluminium prices. PetChem net profit is projected by CIMB to drop from RM6.5b in FY2022 to RM2.2b in FY2023, or a drop of 66%, while PMetal net profit is projected by Hong Leong to drop from RM1.42b in FY2022 to RM1.22b in FY2023 or a drop of 14%.

It is totally unjustified for analysts to give a PER of over 20x to PetChem and PMetal while giving a PER of below 6x for YTLPower.

YTLP is definitely undervalue , if they are listed in US , the share price should have appreciated at least 200% now, suggest management to list their valuable assets to unlock the intrinsic value and give good return to the shareholder ..

Our KLSE has not performing well over the last 30 years.
I still remembered FBMKLCI was at a record high at 1,332 in January 1994, the FBMKLCI increased only 100 points until 2023.

JSX or Indonesian stock market has increased 650% in the last 30 years.
Really very disappointed with KLSE, the worst stock market in the world.

There are many stocks are undervalued in KLSE, YTLPower is one of them.
If YTLPower is traded in NYSE, the fair share price now is 4.00.

I do not give up hope so easily, patient to wait, as long as next few quarter results are good, looking forward to see the share price of YTLPower moving up north to 4.00 in 2024 and later to 5.00 in 2025.

I always remember the below 2 slogans by heart.
"We don't have to be smarter than the rest, we have to be more disciplined than the rest" - Warren Buffett
"The big money is not in the buying and the selling, but in the waiting." - Charlie Munger
Thank you.

@cgtan2020, whether or not PetChem and PMetal are classified as utilities stock, it does not matter lah. Would you invest in a stock purely based on which category it is in?

If we look at YTLP's closest peers Tenaga and Malakoff, it shows the same conclusion.

Tenaga Q3 net profit at RM856m (not much different from YTLP's RM850m), CIMB projects Tenaga full FY2023 net profit at RM3.2b

Malakoff is loss making, no need to calculate at all

Tenaga market cap is now RM57.8bn, hence PER is at 18.1x. It is still trading at over 3 times the valuation of YTLPower.

CIMB values Tenaga at RM12.00 or RM69 billion, based on DCF valuation. It says Tenaga is cheap trading at EV/EBITDA of 5x. If it uses similar valuation on YTLP, it should value YTLP at over RM3.00 per share.

Sometimes these local research houses have own agenda when giving target prices to certain stocks, especially those who have issued call warrants on the stock.

market has to realize that by end of 2026, its not that the earning contribution from powerseraya will shrink to zero

it has to be significantly profitable as else new players has no incentive for such huge investments..

laying cable from sarawak to singapore is no cheap investment and requires significant depreciation & maintenance cost

Apart from power generation & water related business. YTL group has embarked on transforming and digitising, establishing and building a data centre{s} powered entirely by solar energy. Which are often overlook by the business community when looking at their core business. It 's a steady source of business income. The world's biggest name e. g. Amazon and Microsoft all have initiated and operate their data centre in Malaysia. YTL centres are located in Sentul and Technology Park, KL and also the Iskander region, Johor. the new JV data centre at Kulai with Sea Ltd marked a new milestone. The first phase is a tier 111 certified facility which recently the MB of Johor officiated the ground breaking ceremony

@probability, correct, many of these local analysts are too pessimistic on YTLP earnings projection beyond FY2024, they are expecting PowerSeraya earnings to drop by half or more from FY2023 levels which is ridiculous. I guess this is the only way for them to justify a low valuation for YTL Power. As comparison, these analysts project that international prices will jump up by more than 10% in 2024 to justify a 20% increase in earnings for Press Metal, which itself is hard to justify, given that they already got it wrong with aluminium prices and PMEtal earnings for 2023.

For a non-biased view on YTL Power, I suggest you read the research report from Hong Leong who has not issued any call warrant on YTLP and who has reported fairly the outlook of YTLP over next 3 years based on management feedback.

Another one is Yahoo Finance who has also not issued any call warrant on YTLP. Yahoo has given a non-biased and fair projection of YTLP cashflows in next few years and hence a fair DCF value of YTLP.

Looking at the projections for FY2024 to FY2026, I believe HLI's report is more accurate than other IBs in Malaysia.

@dragon328 agree with you on comparing TNB and Malakoff which is more sectorial comparison then general comparison. I think a better comparison will be among the FBMKLCI counter once it is in the index. No matters how you compare, it is still undervalue. hahaha. Local investment bank make a lot of money on these call warrants to cater for "certain needs". Based on Yahoo finance DCF model, YTLP should be at what fair price?

These local banks who have issued call warrants on YTLP but have not fully hedged their positions will suffer badly. Too much gaming will hurt them more, compared to just doing a fully hedged call warrant issuance and earning the upfront 10%-20% premium on issue price

Another possible reason for some of these local research houses to give a low target price for YTLP is that their investment bank arm may have managed some funds for EPF and sold off half of EPF's holdings on YTL Power. They cannot simply now value YTLP at a target price substantially higher than the price at which they sold EPF holdings on YTLP.

There are 2 put warrants issued for YTLP.
For those who shout gap down loudly, please prove your gut by buying these put warrants.
These two put warrants are lack of customers, please go and support them.
