Buy (Maintained) – FV of RM0.80
“Flour to offset poor poultry earnings”
• We maintain BUY on Malayan Flour Mills (M Flour) with an unchanged fair value of RM0.80/share, based on FY25F PE of 8x, which is the 2-year average. We ascribe a neutral 3- star ESG rating to M Flour.
• Although M Flour’s poultry earnings are expected to be poor in FY24F, this would be more than compensated by a recovery in flour profits.
• Even so, we have reduced M Flour’s FY24F net profit by 5% to account for weaker contribution from the poultry joint venture. We forecast M Flour’s share of earnings in the unit to be a loss of RM12mil in FY24F vs. a positive RM25.9mil in FY23 due to a drop in poultry demand from quick service restaurants.
