AmResearch retains 'hold' on YTL Power

Publish date: Mon, 13 Jan 2014, 04:56 PM
AmResearch has maintained its 'hold' call on YTL Power International (YTLP), with a fair value of RM1.86 per share.

The research house quoted The Edge Malaysia report over the weekend that YTLP has emerged as the frontrunner for Project 3B, involving the construction and operation of a 2,000-megawatt coal-fired power plant locally worth RM11 billion.

AmResearch said that based on the evaluation report submitted to the Energy Commission (EC) in December last year, YTLP was the preferred bidder as its notional adjusted tariff of 25.2 sen per kilowatt-hour was the lowest.

The EC is expected to announce the winner of the bid only by Jan 20, 2014.

AmResearch has forecast YTLP to record a core net profit of RM1.09 billion for its 2014 financial year (FY14) compared with RM1.07 billion in FY13.

For FY15 and FY16, YTLP's net profit is forecast to hit RM1.24 billion and RM1.27 billion respectively.-- Bernama
