For 6 months yoy, in the Comstruction division, decrease
in revenue was due to completion of certain projects in year 2012 while
increase in PBT & PAT was mainly due to higher margin from certain projects
for the current year under review. In the investment division, the significant
jump in PBT was mainly due to changes in FV of it's investment property
recognised of RM14.6m. Qoq, Rev-36% while PBT+147%. The significant jump was
again due to the change in FV in the current financial quarter. We continue to
like Co for we expect it to launch its affordable housing project, Alam Sanjung
in Batu Tiga, Shah Alam (priced between RM300k-RM450k) in the near term.
Furthermore, construction works on its Dang Wangi project will be rolled-out in
2H13. We are also positive on the Co's JVs with Prasarana and MRB as this
allows the group to obtain prime development land at a cheaper cost. We believe
CBH would continue to adopt this "asset-light" model in their
property development business as this method would allow the group to
participate in more large-scale development without stretching their balance
sheets; BOW.
