ROA (%) 3.0 2.9 NTA/Share (RM) 1.5 1.5 Price/ NTA (x) 0.6 0.6 High-rise Development Worth RM705mn GDV Based on the preliminary plan, the residential development, dubbed M Luna, Share Performance (%) Price Change MSGB FBM KLCI which is to be affordably priced, will offer two blocks of serviced apartments 1 mth 0.0 (0.6) units with indicative built up from 700 sq. ft. priced from RM385k/unit. Spanning 3 mth (4.2) 1.7 6 mth (2.7) (1.6) over a development period of 4 years, M Luna is expected to yield a GDV of 12 mth (27.0) (5.5) RM705mn. Management expects to launch a preview of this project in 4Q19. (12-Mth) Share Price relative to the FBMKLCI Effective Land Cost at 8.7% of GDV The latest acquisition will increase the group’s landbank to 2,104 acres with total remaining GDV and unbilled sales of RM25.8bn. Excluding land premiums and development charges, we gather that the effective land cost works out to about RM61mn (or RM256psf). As such, the land cost would make up about 8.7% of the total development value of RM705mn. As the land cost to GDV ratio comes below the general rule of thumb of 20%, we deem the acquisition price attractive. Neutral on the Acquisition Source: Bloomberg While the acquisition is in line with the group’s focus to acquire prime land in strategic location especially in the Klang Valley for fast turnaround development, we are caution on the huge incoming supply in the Kepong vicinity – see Appendix 3 . Note that, the list excludes UEM Sunrise’s 73-acre land in Kepong slated for a mixed-development with an estimated GDV of RM15bn over 15-20 Page 1 of 4 24-Jul-19 year s, which is adjacent to Mah Sing’s M Luna project . Targeted for launch in 4Q19, we gather that the first phase of UEM Sunrise’s project would comprise two blocks of high-rise condominiums with an estimated GDV of RM690mn (indicative selling price of RM650psf). Having said that, we believe M Luna is competitive priced at an indicative selling price of RM550psf onwards. All in, we are neutral on the acquisition. We opine that unique concepts and attractive promotional packages are required for this project to stand out in the crowd, given the huge influx of new supplies in the neighbourhood in the coming years. Impact No change to our FY19-21 earnings forecasts for now pending a meeting with management. In terms of funding, we believe Mah Sing’s strong balance sheet with cash balance of RM1.3bn as Mar-19, should provide financial flexibility for this land acquisition and future landbanking. Valuation We maintain our Buy recommendation with an unchanged target price of RM1.07/share, based on unchanged target average blended CY20 PE/PB of 10x/0.8x Appendix 1: Location Map Source: Mah Sing Page 2 of 4 24-Jul-19 Appendix 2: Artist Impression of The Project Source: Mah Sing Appendix 3: Non-Landed Residential Projects Launched in Kepong in 2016-2017 Source: Metro Homes, Landserve and Edgeprop.my Financial Summary Page 3 of 4 24-Jul-19 Profit and Los s (RM'mn) Balance S heet RM'mn) FYE Dec 2017 2018 2019F 2020F 2021F FYE Dec 2017 2018 2019F 2020F 2021F Revenue 2915.8 2192.9 2290.3 2381.7 2388.3 PPE 155.9 227.4 217.6 208.7 200.6 COGS (2154.1) (1542.4) (1603.2) (1667.2) (1671.8) Land held for dev 1482.2 1619.8 1635.4 1643.4 1651.5 Gross profit 761.7 650.6 687.1 714.5 716.5 Leasehold land 5.6 4.8 4.8 4.8 4.7 Investment Properties 227.8 228.5 228.5 228.5 228.5 EBITDA 493.0 392.0 420.9 430.2 429.7 Others 148.7 174.1 174.1 174.1 174.1 Deprecia tion (16.4) (13.5) (19.7) (18.9) (18.1) LT Assets 2020.2 2254.6 2260.4 2259.5 2259.5 Amortisa tion (0.0) (0.0) (0.0) (0.0) (0.0) EBIT 476.5 378.4 401.1 411.3 411.5 Property dev.
