Maxis
(Company Update): To
continue dividend payout of 40sen? (Maintain HOLD, TP: RM5.69) [download
report]
We are mildly positive over Maxis’ stepped-up aggression in defending
its receding market share particularly in the prepaid market as we believe that
the incremental growth could be offset by thinner margin resulting from the
exceptional low rates offered. We believe Maxis could maintain its dividend per
share (DPS) of 40sen, representing >100% of dividend payout ratio (DPR),
assuming that Maxis borrows RM1bn in FY14 and FY15. We have revised our
valuation from the Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) method to Dividend Discount Model
(DDM) with a revised target price of RM5.69. Maxis remains a Hold given its
limited expected total return.
