TETAPLAH OPTIMIS TERHADAP BATUBARA.........
Subject: Fw: Buy BUMI INDF Initiation (Sales Note 4 July 08)
*BUMI: Buy *INDF initiate with Buy *GEM awaiting Bear-Mkt rally
BUMI: Value emerging
Stock’s weakness is an opportunity: U$350mn worth of BUMI traded yesterday,
the uppermost anyone in this desk can recall and nearly 4x of its AD/TO and was
half of U$ 800mio the IDX churned. Stock is so widely owned hence face high
possibility of having nervous holders exiting anytime. Local also associates
the name to a hypothesis that on big sell-off days ‘certain big holders’ could
sell out - to raise cash so they can buy back when the stock rebound.
Newcastle remains >U$ 170/t and Vicky Binnsmy continue to believe the market
remain very tight with no indication to soften. BUMI currentlytrades on 9.3xE
with 74% EPSg and 64% ROE, having assume U$ 135/t on 2009-9, U$ 100/ton 2010
and U$ 65/t LT. Buy!
Overnight the API2 index failed to spike back, though prices steeled at 205/t
after bobbled around previous close. Market still nervous, but Vicky Binns
reiterates fundamentals are unchanged, and with current crude positioning to
breach $150, it will take some market players conviction to trade coal down too
far the opposite direction. She pointed also talk about China removing VAT on
thermal coal imports which could move China to a major importer of thermal
coal through the south as this would more than compensate for the freight
differential between Northern China and Indonesia to Guangdong (~$5 in favour
of Northern China ). We remain bullish on coal. All incremental demand comes
from emerging markets and until speculations of recession becomes a reality,
it's premature to discuss demand destruction in energy. We believe prices will
remain tight and equity brokers will need to further upgrade prices in company
earnings. Vicky’s top
pick in Asia are PTBA and BUMI.

INDF: initiate w/ Buy PxT Rp3,125
Bonny resumed coverage on INDF with Buy PxT Rp 3,125. INDF's ability to pass
on rising costs, combined with easing competition and softening raw material
costs will help sustain margins at its noodle and flour bizz. In fact, we
expect EBIT margin for flour to expand to 11.3% by YE08 from 7% as of 1Q08.INDF
has raised prices by 20% YTD, but still manage to keep market share stable at
60% for flour and 77% noodle, thanks to its well-recognized brand and
preference for its taste. Competition in noodle bizz has eased as competitors
now focus on profitability rather than mkt share. Wheat price which made up 90%
of flour cost has softened since March. In addition, INDF is abeneficiary of
firm CPO price thanks to its acquisition of 64% stake in LSIP in Nov ’07, which
will boost EBIT contributions from plantations from 43% in 2007 to 59% by
2010.INDF is now the 2nd largest plantation in Indo with total planted area of
186,000ha. Trades at 11x '09P/E, 39%
disc to global peers. If westrip out the plantation subsidiaries, INDF's
noodle and flour bizz trades at only 7.3x '09 P/E!
GEM outflow
Are we approaching a Bear-Market rally? EM long-only funds saw another big
$4.3bn redemptions in week to July 2nd and Mike Hartnett’s flow trading rule is
now firmly in “Buy” territory. EEM may test $120 (Jan intraday low was $122)
before investors attempt to catch the guillotine (chart). Other awaited
catalysts: i) spike in VIX, ii) oil prices/inflation expectations down, iii)
rally in short rates/global financials. In addition, investors are now
furiously capitulating out of global growth plays and any H1 “winners” e.g.
Brazil . The 20 consecutive days of redemptions totaling $14bn rivals big
outflow periods of Jan’08 & Jun’06. Big outflows relative to norm are seen in
GEM, Asia, LatAm , India , Taiwan , Thailand .
