Group  is the largest publicly-listed cord blood bank in Malaysia. It also holds a 40 per cent stake in Stemlife Thailand. Cordlife had acquired 78.74 million shares in Stemlife from its founders and several individuals last year at 60 sen/share. Margins can be enhanced significantly as Stemlife can do in-house sample testing, which Cordlife currently outsources to an external lab at a higher cost.  Stemlife had signed a licensing pact with Cordlife recently for Stemlife to offer a service to store cell tissue from umbilical cords in Malaysia. Stem cells from the umbilical cord yields two types of stem cells, while competitors can produce only one type of stem cell. Part of Cordlife group restructuring will involve selling off select assets and removing unprofitable business. Share price has dipped back down to its strong support levels of 46 sen after touching a high of 57sen on 13 Aug. RSI at at 39 with MACD looking to cut back up we are targeting an immediate price target of 52sen.

TRIM
-
The current run up to record levels driven by better than expected results stemming from strong growth in Bank of Chengdu and lumpy write back is a good opportunity to trim. The challenging environment domestically is reflected in its YOY loan growth achievement of only 7.2% vs management target of 10%. Going forward lower write backs are expected with higher overhead expenses due to its expansion in Cambodia and Vietnam. Further more the bank could be contemplating a capital raising exercise to increase its core tier 1 capital with talks of BNM imposing a a higher ratio than HLBank’s current level of 8.1%. Currently trading at P/Bk of 1.9x vs industry average of 1.6x, Trim
