Sembcorp Industries Ltd 2Q18 Summary
Core Content Overview
Sembcorp Industries Ltd, a Singapore-based conglomerate, reported its 2Q18 results, showcasing a mixed performance across its segments. The group's overall revenue and net profit met expectations, driven by strong contributions from its Utilities segment in Singapore, China, and India. However, the Marine segment continued to underperform, dragging down the group's profitability. The company also lowered its FY18e EPS forecast and adjusted its target price due to prolonged weak profitability from Sembcorp Marine (SMM).
Main Points
Positive Aspects
-
Utilities Segment Performance:
- Singapore: Net profit of S$43.3mn (+4.3% YoY), with the company securing 94MW of solar power capacity and becoming the second largest renewable energy player in Singapore.
- China: Net profit of S$15.1mn (+65.9% YoY), primarily due to the Changzhi water treatment plant and higher spark spread from the SongZao thermal power plant.
- India: Turned profitable with a net income of S$39.4mn (2Q17: S$-3.2mn), attributed to a high wind season and reduced loan balance, along with higher average power selling prices.
-
Valuation Adjustments:
- The company lowered its FY18e EPS from 18.9 SG cents to 17.7 SG cents due to prolonged weak profitability from SMM.
- The target price for SMM was reduced to SGD 1.78, based on the sum-of-the-parts method.
- The overall target price for Sembcorp Industries was adjusted to SGD 3.70 (from SGD 3.83).
Negative Aspects
-
Marine Segment Challenges:
- SMM reported a net loss of SGD 55.6mn in 2Q18.
- The net order book declined to SGD 7.2bn in 1H18 from SGD 8.4bn in FY17.
- Work volume and margins are expected to remain low for the rest of the financial year, with operating losses anticipated.
-
Concerns in India:
- Thermal coal prices imported from overseas are higher than domestic prices, compressing the spark spread.
- The group is concerned about receivables from power purchasers and plans to optimize the cash conversion cycle.
Outlook and Strategy
- Sembcorp Industries aims to become an integrated energy player, expanding into renewable and clean energy through recent acquisitions and investments.
- The company expects profit contributions from the recently acquired UK Power Reserve in FY19.
- The India operation is anticipated to continue improving due to favorable domestic market conditions and financial position.
- The group's overall performance improvement is expected to slow down as the Marine segment remains a drag.
