MHB (5186)
27/3/2014
RM3.72
ACCUMULATE
RM4.30
Stock has led the broad market recently with a strong bounce from its recent low of RM3.51 to a high of RM3.75 accompanied with above average volume and subsequently consolidated in a flag pattern with the daily macd firmly in the positive. While the weekly macd has just registered a golden cross which bodes well for the stock in the medium term. This chart is not typical of MHB’s in the past year due to its disappointing earnings, cost overruns and delay in award of contracts. Hence, this could possibly mean the fruition of a few potential catalysts like the winning of the big jobs (worth US$1b) they have tendered like the Baronia, Sepat, Bergading, Bokor & Dulang fields central processing platform (CPP) projects. As they have completed a few major jobs towards the end of last year, the yard utilisation has dropped to 50%, providing the capacity to bid for these huge contracts. There is also the potential of a successful negotiation on reimbursements of additional work done to complete the previous jobs where the costs have been recognised but not the revenue. Accumulate

KKB (9466)  
27/3/2014
RM2.47
ACCUMULATE
RM2.75
Stock has been consolidating for more than 2 months in a trading band of RM2.40 to RM2.60, and recently with the o&g fabricators & contractors performing well, it is an appropriate level to start accumulation of KKB.  KKB is one of the prime beneficiaries of the Sarawak Corridor of Renewable Energy (SCORE), where it has a proven track record of having successfully completed many fast-tracked SCORE-related projects. This is seen recently when they won a larger-than-expected RM227m pipe supply order. The company is bidding for RM430m worth of jobs and has a historical contract win rate of 30%. A bigger portion of the current tenders are said to be fabrication jobs which carry higher profit margin. In addition, KKB is expected to clinch RM100m – RM150m worth of O&G-related contracts in FY14 after its 43% associate, OceanMight SB, became a licensed Petronas supplier. Upstream reported that KKB is part of a consortium (together with Hyundai Heavy Industries & Norway’s Aker Solutions) pre-qualified for the development of the offshore facilities for the Bergading field under the first phase of the North Malay Basin field. This turnkey contract has a potentially value of USD1bil. KKB trades at FY14 & FY15 PER of 10.7x & 10.1x respectively. Accumulate
