KPJ, at current valuations, provides a more attractive entry point to the healthcare industry. The Group benefits from a focus on its home market, being the largest hospital group in Malaysia. We also like the Group for their prudent expansion plans which will ensure future growth, but not at the expense of bottomline growth.
A cheaper entry to the healthcare industry. At conservative assumptions, KPJ remains an attractive buy as it is relatively undervalued compared to regional peers, with forward PE of 23x and 26x for FY13 and FY14 respectively compared to the regional average of 33x and 27x.
Maintain Outperform with adjusted TP of RM6.50. We are rolling forward our valuations to FY14 with new TP of RM6.50 based on forward PE of 25x, which is a 25% discount to IHH‟s forward PE. We are reducing our net profit forecast for FY13 to FY14 by 4% to 9% to account for a more conservative outlook, in view of the slower-thanexpected ramp-up of the Bandar Baru Klang Hospital and RS Bumi Serpong Damai in Indonesia, which will be further dragged by the opening of three new hospitals this year, ie Pasir Gudang Specialist Hospital, Muar Specialist Hospital and Sabah Medical Centre (SMC). Despite the drag, we still expect net profit growth to be decent in the next three years at 10% to 12%, while leaving room for positive surprises should the operations ramp-up faster than expected.
