The share price has surged c7% over the past 2 days, partly on the back of firmer CPO prices which climbed 7% over the last week. This rise in CPO prices was due to expectations that palm oil production could soften in the coming months due to seasonal factors & that Malaysia could be implementing B7 biodiesel policy by 2014. We reckon the buying has been overdone. At current CPO prices, the disparity between CPO & soybean oil is only at c9%, compared to the 5 year average of 17%. Recall also that in the FY06/13 results reported, group only achieved 53% of consensus estimates, due to disappointing losses in the plantation division. Although in the timber division, log prices are holding up & are awaiting plywood price re-rating, it only form about a third of group earnings with plantation making up the balance. JTiasa’s long term prospects remain in-tact (favorable age profile of oil palm trees & operational cost savings from new mills), but we see limited catalysts in the plantation sector currently to suggest CPO prices will continue on the uptrend. RSI at 75 – Opportunity to Sell into Strength (Possible buyback at RM 2.07, 18x FY06/14 EPS) .

After the 7% pullback in price over the last 2 weeks, group is now trading at PER of  c17X FY12/14. We consider this a good opportunity to buy into the stock. Management is still focused on enhancing profitability via portfolio rebalancing & good claims management as well as expanding its online travel insurance business. It guided that 2HCY13 could offer more upside to its business expansion ( travel insurance reach to 18 markets, in line with AirAsia’s expansion plans). The period could also witness the roll-out of new products & possible tie ups with other major travel providers. The general insurance arm is working on improving its underwriting margins & maintaining its claim ratios at a targeted 65% (in line with industry). On M&As, apart from Thailand & Indonesia, group is also exploring opporunities in Taiwan, South Korea & Brunei ( positive as do not expect big capital outlays as Tune will only need to buy a small player to secure the needed license). Numerous catalysts ahead,  include high take-up rate in the online business, better claims ratio, potential acquisitions opportunities, new customer segment & higher dividend payouts. RSI at 25 – Accumulate ( TP RM 2.20, 20x FY14 ).
