Tan Chong ' A Better 2H12                                                                                           Market Perform

Visit Note

-          Tan Chong will likely report relatively weak 1Q earnings after MAA data for the first two months of 2012 showed combined Nissan and Renault sales down 16.7% yoy, attributed to a combination of component supply constraints and the newly-introduced responsible lending guidelines.

-          We reiterate our Market Perform call on Tan Chong and lift our fair value to RM4.60 (from RM4.20), derived from applying a 13x (from 10x) target PER to revised 2012 earnings.
