CIMB Strategy - Snapshot of January foreign fund flows

Market outlook
Strategy - Snapshot of January foreign fund flows - by Erwan Teguh
( , )

Based on EPFR data, Indonesia enjoyed two consecutive months of net foreign fund inflows in Dec 08 and Jan 09, totalling US$95.3m, vs. a net outflow of US$496m in Jan 09 for emerging Asia. Astra International has toppled Telkom Indonesia for the top holding. On the other hand, after a significant run in Dec 08, banks have lost appeal. The biggest beneficiary appears to be PGAS, with BUMI suffering the most decline. No change in our index target of 1,530 which is bottom-up, implying 10.2x and 8.6x CY09-10 earnings, and a Neutral weighting. Top buys: TLKM, PGAS, ADRO, INTP, BMRI. Top sells: ASII, INDF, INCO

Credit Suisse - United Tractors 2008 results

United Tractors’2008 results came in 15% above our expectations (13% above consensus’ due to a better( more resilient)-than-expected 4Q08 performance, confirming our positive view on our report, entitled visibility, quality, and valuation

The weaker rupiah, higher ASP (due to product mix) and inventory gains are the key reasons.

Despite a 37% YoY and a 61% QoQ drop in equipment sales volume, revenues were still up 76% YoY and only down 3% QoQ. Half of the growth was due to the weakening of the rupiah. The other coal-related divisions also were impacted by heavy rains in 4Q08. Financially, the company is sitting comfortably with a net gearing of 14%.

Although the results seem to suggest upside risk to our earnings forecasts, we maintain our number unchanged for the moment as we believe that the inventory gains are likely to gradually decline. We are now looking at earnings to decline by 25% YoY this year.

Given the improving earning visibility, quality, and undemanding valuations, we maintain our OUTPERFORM rating on the stock.

Goldman Astra Intl 4Q08 results

What surprised us

As expected, Astra International reported weaker 4QFY2008 net profit of Rp1.8tn, vs. its previous quarter’s peak of Rp2.6tn, for full-year net profit of Rp9.2tn, up 41% yoy. This compares against our estimate of Rp8.5trn, with the difference due to Rp403bn exceptional gain on plantation asset disposal. In 4Q, almost all its core divisions had weaker earnings as we expected, automotive operating profit down 74% QoQ to Rp187bn, largely due to fewer car and motorcycle sales (down 7%/26% QoQ respectively), in fact, we note its auto retail distribution unit had Rp185trn in operating losses. Despite Astra Honda squeezing more profits from each motorcycle sale, quarterly earnings were still down 18%, inline with fewer motorcycle sales.

Plantation and heavy equipment/coal mining earnings fell 63% and 34% QoQ, respectively: United Tractors sold fewer Komatsu heavy equipment units, down 61% QoQ as credit tightened, while weaker palm oil prices affected Astra Agro Lestari. Astra International separately proposed to pay a Rp570 final dividend, which including the interim dividend of Rp300, would represent a 38% payout for earnings.

What to do with the stock
The weaker 4QFY2008 results did not surprise us; we had expected a slower 4Q on domestic demand slowdown, and lower commodity prices. That said, we think investors are likely to take comfort in the inline core earnings results. We have raised our 2009E-2010E EPS by 3.1%-8.7%, primarily to reflect higher Rupiah assumptions. Introduce 2011 estimates. Retain our Buy; 12-m NAV-based PT revised marginally up to Rp14,300 (previous Rp14,100). Downside risks include sharper than expected decline in auto and heavy equipment sales, further decline in commodity prices, and more severe than expected credit loss.
