"Better Progress Ahead For Sungai Rasau Project; BUY”
Keep BUY and MYR0.98 TP, 24% upside and c.5% FY25F yield. 1H24 core profit of MYR32m (+46% YoY) made up 48% and 46% our and Street full-year projections which we deem as in line amid better construction progress for the Sungai Rasau Water Treatment Plant project and traffic volume of its highways in 2H24. 1H24 DPS stands at 2 sen vs our FY24 assumption of 4 sen. We favour Taliworks Corporation for its undemanding valuation (-2SD from its 5-year mean EV/EBITDA) and attractive FY25F dividend yield

“Construction Still Lagging But Others A-okay; BUY"
Keep BUY with new MYR0.98 TP from MYR1.01, 20% upside, c.5% FY25F yield. Taliworks Corporation recorded a 1Q24 core profit of MYR15m (+49% YoY) but missed both ours and Street’s estimates – contributing 20% of full- year projections. The negative deviation was mainly due to the sluggish progress of construction projects. A first interim dividend of 1 sen per share was declared in 1Q24 vs our FY24 assumption of 4 sen per share payout. We favour Taliworks for its undemanding valuation (-2SD below its 5-year mean EV/EBITDA) and attractive c.5% FY24F yield.

Hold (Maintain) – TP RM0.81
“Transitory period"
Taliworks reported 1QFY24 core PATAMI of RM15.0m (+49.4% YoY) meeting our/consensus expectations at 20% of forecasts. 1QFY24 DPS of 1.0 sen was slightly below expectations. Construction segment was sluggish but things could eventually pick-up. Water & toll segments profitability should see noteworthy improvement from rate hike and higher compensation. Contribution from solar is anticipated to be steady. Minor changes to forecasts. Maintain HOLD with unchanged TP of RM0.81. The stock is undergoing a transitory period prioritising growth over dividends.
