Kinsteel (Hold): Iron ore concession to provide the kicker

Stock Name: KINSTEL
Company Name: KINSTEEL BHD
Research House: MAYBANKPrice Call: HOLDTarget Price: 0.49



Below expectations. 9M11 net loss of RM19m (9M10: RM11m net profit) is significantly below our full-year net profit forecast of RM10m and consensus' RM12m. Though near-term earnings will remain weak, we maintain our Hold rating as the potential official award of the iron ore mine concession to Perwaja is a major positive re-rating catalyst. We now project 2011 net loss of RM22m and cut 2012-13 EPS forecasts by 20-21%. TP is lowered to RM0.49 (-20%) as we peg Kinsteel at trough P/BV valuation of 0.55x (from 0.7x), similar to 2009.
