Notion VTEC: Upgrade to Buy - Benefiting from the Thai floods

Upgrade to Buy. Notion may post a minor loss of around RM5m in 1QFY12 (4QFY11: RM12m net profit) on flood-caused provisioning for its Thai plant. However, we see a strong rebound in sequential earnings (led by the HDD segment), which could prompt consensus to upgrade its FY12 estimates. We raise our FY12 EPS forecast by 12%, and now expect 6% YoY growth (-5% previously). We upgrade the stock to a Buy, with a higher TP of RM2.50 (+67%) on 4x EV/EBITDA.
