Stock has performed badly over the past year with a decline of 38% since it peaked at RM4.85 in Aug’13 while the KLCI index is +4.3% over the same period. This is due to its disappointing performance with throughput down 6.9% y-o-y and the logistics division suffering losses from low business volume and management’s decision to cut certain unprofitable business streams. However, there is light in the tunnel for FY14 with Port Klang registering high single-digit growth for the first quarter from higher exports & imports (trade portion showed a significant increase in Malaysia’s Q1 GDP) resulting in management’s confidence to guide a higher throughput for FY14 versus negative growth for FY13. There is also an increase in capacity with the completion of Wharf 8A, which is furnished with the state of the art equipment, in December last year. NCB has retraced close to 50% retracement of its 10-year bull run from July’03 to Aug’13 and the price is now supported by its book value of RM3.00 (as at 31/3/14). With talks of potential suitors for its port operations from other port operators, the second extension of its port concession for another 30 years and the recent press report that NCB may have bagged the proposed 30-year concession 3rd container terminal in Port Klang, NCB is a trading buy at current level. For comparison, NCB trades at significantly lower valuation than its competing other operator in Port Klang, Westports,  with prospective FY14 PER of 13.95x versus Westports 19.21x. Trading buy

IJM-WC (3336WC)
5/6/2014
RM2.79
BUY
RM3.30
IJM is expected outperform the market in the near & mid-term due to its many catalysts such as the imminent unveiling of the project infrastructure of the RM6b West Coast Expressway, newsflow of privatization of IJM Land via a share swap by IJM, the group’s tender for the infra project for RAPID and the potential special or higher dividends from the surplus cash (RM634m cash from the recent asset divestments). IJM-WC presents a cheaper  exposure into the stock with a discount of 3% and provides a gearing of 2.51x. Conversion into the mother share is at an exercise price of RM4.00 and it will expire on 24/10/14. Buy or switch from mother share into IJM-WC
