Banks

Fund deployment on the cards

 

■ Banking system loan growth was flattish in Aug 24, easing 0.1% yoy as growth in domestic loans was more than offset by a regional decline.

■ While system deposits rose 3.4% yoy in Aug 24, we note a sharp S$21bn pullback on a mom basis – likely a result of fund deployment as FDs mature.

■ Reiterate sector Neutral. We think sequential earnings growth will likely be dependent on the pick-up of fee income as US Fed fund rate cuts set in.

■ Hospitality SREITs under our coverage are trading at average FY25F DPU yield of c.6.6%, attractive compared to the sector’s c.5.7% FY25F DPU yield.

We highlight key points in Civmec Limited’s (S$1.00, up 0.5 cents) FY24 annual report:

Executive Chairman James Fitzgerald: Back in 2009, we had a vision: to create a successful, multidisciplined organisation with a variety of diverse and integrated capabilities. One of our early goals was to prove to our customers the value of local manufacturing and encourage more heavy engineering projects to stay within Australian shores. To this end, we are consistently achieving this goal, with an increasing number of clients realising that value, seeking out our services and returning to us, repeatedly, to deliver to their requirements.

Capitalized at S$508mln, Civmec trades at valuations of 8.4x forward P/E and 1.2x P/B with a 5.3% dividend yield. Civmec trades at a discount to many of its Australian peers, while the establishment of two new facilities in Pilbara and Gladstone will increase the number of maintenance opportunities available going forward. We maintain Accumulate with an unchanged target price of S$1.20, pegged to 10.1x forward P/E (15% discount to its largercap peers).
