Strong 4Q results

Positive on Eucalyptus Acquisition

SANY International

Traction in mining truck segment

Far East Hospitality Trust

Expected strong operational performance

Singapore Airline

Improving fundamentals

Walmart is the world’s biggest retailer, and sells its products through its physical stores and e-commerce channels. In the recent quarterly results, it has highlighted that its same stores growth in the United States was at 4.6%. Meanwhile, its global e-commerce growth was at 24%.

Why we like this: Walmart’s position in the U.S. market is undeniable. It is the largest retailer. While the Morningstar report above highlighted that Walmart is trading at an expensive valuation, we believe that the valuation is justified. The retailer is benefitting from the K-shaped economy where high-income households are spending more. And even though lower-income households are cutting back, they are still going to Walmart to shop for convenience.

Him & Hers Health is a telehealth platform that connects people to licensed healthcare professionals in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada and other countries. It has recently acquired Eucalyptus for US$1.2 billion to expand into Australia and Japan. Keonhee Kim, Morningstar analyst said that this was a good move and ‘drama-free’ compared to the episode of abruptly ending the oral semaglutide launch in early February.

Why we like this: It’s simple really. Him & Hers Health move to acquire Eucalyptus aligns with its core business. It provides skin care, hair loss, sexual health, and weight-loss services which are high in demand now. Yes, the move to end oral semaglutide launch was disappointing but its core businesses remain intact. And we like that it’s trading at very cheap valuations.

SANY International manufactures and sells mining and logistics equipment, electricity, power station, petroleum and new energy manufacturing equipment in China and for the international market. The stock has risen by 70% year-to-date as mining activities in China is ramping up for another commodity upcycle.

Why we like this: The narrative is straightforward. SANY is China’s largest construction machinery company and is top 3 in the world. Mining for rare earth and commodities are projected to ramp up as U.S. and China tensions escalates. Countries that have rare earth reserves are now rushing to invest and mine for them as they fear China might cut off the supply as a bargaining chip with the U.S.

Far East Hospitality Trust is a real estate investment trust (REIT) that operates and manages hotel and serviced apartments. Last year, average daily rates for the company was strong due to big events such as World Aquatics Championship and Blackpink’s World Tour.

Why we like this: The REIT’s sponsor is Far East Organisation, one of the largest private property player in Singapore. Li Jialin from CGS International highlighted an interesting opportunity in that it can tap into its sponsor’s pipeline of hotels and still has SG$600 million of debt room to take on before its gearing reaches 45%.

Singapore Airlines provides flight transportation services for both people and goods under the Singapore Airlines and Scoot brands.

Why we like this: SIA has a dominant market position in Singapore as a premier airlines but also providing budget flights. While growth has slowed after the pandemic, it has recently showed signs of improvement especially after Air India (SIA has 25% share) losses after the crash of Ahmedabad plane crash. SIA is currently trading at relatively cheap valuations.

Hope the above is fruitful for you all..

Cheers,
James Yeo
