UOB Kay Hian Research adds IJM Plantation, GentingM to Alpha list


UOB Kay Hian Research said GentingM's valuations were compelling, after two years of selldown due to gaming duty hike and RPT-linked acquisition of loss-making US-based Empire Resorts. GentingM currently trades at -one standard deviation EV/EBITDA of seven times.

KUALA LUMPUR: UOB Kay Hian Malaysia Research has added IJM Plantations (IJMP) and Genting Malaysia to its December 2019 alpha picks as it expects a listless month and not much window dressing.

It said on Monday due to the heightened domestic political (power handover issue) and policy risk, which have been thus far overwhelmingly business-unfriendly, its portfolio selection has become highly skewed towards companies which are driven by positive external developments.
