Maybank Kim Eng has given a recommendation on The Siam Cement Public Company Limited (SCC) with a target price at ฿420.00/share.

Maybank states that the share price of SCC this year fell 9% YTD while the earnings outlook next year tends to recover driven by products spread likely to gradually recover. The current share price has partly priced in negative factors already. This is coupled with the unlocking of its paper business with the IPO next year that should boost value higher.

KGI states that it remains positive about EKH’s potential growth in 2020 as positive momentum from strong services of IVF and increased capacity of Children Center will drive both revenues and earnings. Looking ahead, EKH’s growth outlook will derive from the company’s renovation (Hemodialysis and ENT centers) and expansion (EKH Nursing Home). KGI maintains its earnings estimates at Bt161mn (+37.4% YoY) in 2019F and Bt184mn (+14.3% YoY) in 2020F.
