Broker Name: CGS International

Date of Report: April 7, 2026

Excerpt from CGS International report

Report Summary

  • Actionable Stock Ideas:
    • Supermarket operator SSG is highlighted as a key beneficiary of increased government support for households, with an estimated ~1% uplift to net profit forecasts driven by stronger same-store sales. The report sees scope for further re-rating of SSG, supported by resilient demand in a high cost-of-living environment.
    • Suburban retail landlords FCT and CICT may also benefit from sustained tenant sales due to earlier cash handouts to households.
    • Developers such as UOL and CIT could see their residential selling prices supported by elevated construction costs, which is positive for their RNAVs.
  • Call to Action:
    • Focus on SSG for potential upside, given government measures and consumer behavior trends.
    • FCT and CICT could be considered for exposure to retail landlord benefits.
    • UOL and CIT may be supported by higher construction costs influencing property prices.
  • Sector/Market Implications:
    • Government is rolling out S\$1bn in additional support including cash relief, energy efficiency grants, and cost-sharing for diesel/bitumen in public sector projects.
    • These measures are expected to offset inflation risks stemming from Middle East tensions and rising oil prices.
  • Target Price:
    • Not specified in the report excerpt.
