The share price has surged c11% over the past 3 days on improved volume. This probably on the back of improved recognition of Co being a dominant developer in Seremban and a major beneficiary of the Klang Valley property boom, as well as commendable Q3 results. Co also surprised with a 10s dividend declared for the quarter. It stil has over 2000 acres of undeveloped landbank located some 15-20 mins from Seremban town centre. Since its IPO in May, Co has added 3 parcels of land into its portfolio ( 430 acres in Labu & Kemayan and 1.1 acre in KL ), resulting in GDV being boosted by RM1.8b to RM8.2b. Group’s lofty margin is expected to hover c40% ( low land cost &  pent up demand ), above the sector’s average. Its strong cash position should also underpin the attractive dividend payout ( 40% payout sustainable). However with the price run-up, it’s discount to RNAV has narrowed to c43%, quite in line with valuation for other small cap developers. Following the Budget 2014 which contained several measures to curb excessive speculation in the property sector, it recently added the “net selling price” to determine the LTV ( loan to value) ratio. This is negative, and some can argue the adverse impact on the sector can be more pronounced than initially anticipated. Transaction volume may fall going into 2014. We see this share price jump a good opportunity to sell into strength as it’s cheaper valuation dissipates – Trading Sell ( Buyback at RM 2.90, 48% disc to RNAV ).

RM1.41
Interest in the stock has picked up again over the last few trading sessions, accompanied with a price rise of c5%. It is understandable given that the group is currently trading at c6.5x FY05/14, below its small cap construction peers PER of closer to 9x. Gadang can be viewed as an emerging civil engineering name, after it completed & secured several sizeable projects ( incl LKSA Highway, MRT1-V2 ). OB is healthy at RM1.58b which should support earnings until 2016 & the construction tender book stands at RM6b. It’s chances of securing up to RM400m every year is also considered bright, given the robust construction sector ( govt programs), strong track record & strong financials. While construction remains its main business ( 75% revenue), we also like Gadang for its efforts to diversify its business into properties (16%), utilities ( 7%) & plantations. Group’s strong cash flow (cash balance RM134m in FY13 from land sales) which translates into net cash/share of 26s, should pave the way for expansion – Buy ( TP RM1.41 based on 9x FY14 EPS ).
