OCBC issued a report stating that ST Engineering (STE) is “underappreciated” by investors.
The report highlights STE’s top earnings growth among FSSTI stocks and its diversified business model operating in industries experiencing recovery and growth. Despite restructuring efforts and extraordinary items affecting earnings, the report suggests that investors have not fully recognized STE’s potential, particularly in FY23.
The report also mentions STE’s margin expansion prospects, with management reaffirming its guidance for the passenger-to-freighter programme and firm delivery pipelines.
STE’s order book is noted as the highest among peers, providing earnings visibility. The report maintains an “Add” recommendation with an unchanged target price of S$4.36, citing steady order book build-up and execution as reasons. Potential risks include a global economic slowdown and labour cost pressures.
Minichart has a buy signal today. Here is the target:
Buy Entry price:$4.03
Target Price:$4.11
Stop Loss Price: $3.89
