- Largely inline. 1H12 core net profit of MYR15m made up 44% of our and 33% of consensus full-year forecasts. We maintain our forecasts as we expect stronger sales volumes ahead from the rollout of big-scale infrastructure projects.
- However, with volatility in the global steel market a concern, we downgrade Kinsteel to HOLD (from BUY) with a lower
- TP of MYR0.40 (from MYR0.49) on a 0.5x trough P/BV (0.7x P/BV previously).
- A re-rating catalyst for Kinsteel could be the potential award of a mining concession to its associate, Perwaja.
