            Results in line, making up 26% of cons RM116.7m

 

Yoy, the improvement in revenue was mainly contributed by residential & commercial properties in Pearl City, Simpang Empat which accounted for c54% of total revenue in the segment for the quarter. Revenue from Property Development & Management +18% while Construction & project management -69%. The lower revenue in the latter was due to lower recognition rate. Qoq, revenue was +18% while PBT was +17.5%. The higher revenue and PBT were due to higher sales achieved from newly launched projects, namely Raintree Park 1 & Pearl Avenue 2, and higher work progress from on-going projects compared to the previous quarter. As at end March 2015, the group achieved an average take up rate of 87.3%  from on-going projects, with a total GDV of RM1.2b, and unbilled sales of cRM443m. These should contribute positively to the group's earnings for the next 2-3 years; Accumulate, we expect sales to pick up in FY15, as approvals come in. Newly launched projects in Pearl City remain strong, signaling products at the right pricing and location will still sell.

 

 

6) Market : With the lack of fresh catalysts & lacklustre sentiment post GST implementation, we reckon that it will be a quiet week ahead of the long holidays. We expect the key index to continue trading within immediate support of 1840 to 1870 points with downside-bias.
