The share price has retraced c61% of its gain following the recent run up from RM2.20 to RM2.52, after the release of it Q1 results. The group did not disappoint with its Q1 numbers, although affected by Thailand’s political deadlock as well as low underwriting margins (due to high staff cost & reserving). The growth of the travel insurance business remains the key driver, which remained strong in 1Q14, posting a 14%yoy increase in gross premium. The causes of the lower underwriting mentioned above, ie higher staff cost & reserving, are deemed temporary in nature. Margins are expected to return to expansion on the back of continued travel insurance demand that rides on its airline partners’ growth and new revenue streams form JVs with Cozmo Travel and Osotspa Insurance. The pullback in share price offers a cheaper entry point into the stock. Accumulate for its bright growth prospects in the region, potential M&As in Thailand, entry into the Middle East markets as well as benefit arising from the revamp of its non-life business in Malaysia. Trading at 17.8x FY15 ( vs sector’s 14-20x valuation), we deem the group should trade at a premium to sector valuation given the catalysts it has; Accumulate TP RM2.60 ( based on 20x FY15).

RM2.49
ACCUMULATE
RM2.94
Share price is now at a 4 month low, after poor 9MFY14 showing where results trail, due to weaker than expected FFB output and OER rate achieved at its mills. We believe the negatives have been reflected in the price. Group is expected to deliver stronger earnings in 4Q as FFB output should be stronger due to seasonality. FFB output is expected to improve strongly in the following years (c30% in FY14, 20% in FY15 ), prime mature areas  to rise from 12% of planted area in FY13 to 50% by FY16. There’s also evidnce of a strong rebound in the timber division, which should provide reprieve during the transition period of the oil palm division. The addition of 2 CPO mills is expected to reduce transportation cost significantlt as well (estm at 40%). We understand that the group is making aggressive efforts to improve FFB yield and the OER. Valuation is undemanding, at 13x FY06/15, with short term rerating catalyst – Accumulate ( TP RM2.94, 15x FY15).
