We are now convinced that 2H09 sales would be healthy. In Jun09, Proton sold</span> <span style="font-style: italic;">more vehicles than Perodua – the first time in 3 years. This was helped by Proton’s maiden MPV, the Exora. </span> <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"><br /><br />Raise 2009 TIV to 497k</span> <span style="font-style: italic;">After raising forecast sales for Proton and Perodua to 128k (1H09: 65.8k) and 157k (1H09: 77.0k) units respectively. We also factored in higher FY09F sales for Toyota to 81k units. While UMW is expected to la</span><span style="font-style: italic;">unch the Toyota hybrid Prius today (vs. Honda Civic’s in Mar09), Perodua would be launching its MPV in Nov 09 (vs. Proton’s Exora in Apr09). An improving economic outlook coupled with stable interest rates will help to encourage consumption. </span> <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"><br /><br />Lift forecast earnings.</span> <span style="font-style: italic;">Consequent to the higher sales assumptions, we raise FY09F net earnings for APM and MBM Resources by 10% and 7% respectively. As such, we raise price targets for APM to RM2.20 (based on 7x FY10F PE) and for MBM Resources to RM2.00 (based on 6x FY10F PE), respectively. Hence, APM is upgraded to BUY but we retain our FULLY VALUED call for MBM Resources. We like APM for its 15% NI growth, 6% net dividend yield, RM1.12 net cash/share as well as strong management.<br /><br /><br /></span><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Gepabi82OHI/SnvF0SVOQoI/AAAAAAAABtg/RAP6P5Aiixg/s1600-h/KNM.bmp"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 99px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Gepabi82OHI/SnvF0SVOQoI/AAAAAAAABtg/RAP6P5Aiixg/s400/KNM.bmp" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5367100883006800514" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="font-style: italic;"><br /></span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0
