if Taiwan choose to unify with some countries.... china would be the last choice.... why would you get Singapore to unify with Malaysia? that is much easier and more practical, right?

Macquarie Equities Research (MQ Research) initiates coverage on the Malaysia gloves sector, with a view that the glove manufacturers have production cost advantages over its China peers and any newer entrants. Although average selling price uncertainty lingers, valuations have turned attractive with all three glove makers trading at EV/share below pre-pandemic levels.
MQ Research names Kossan as its top pick within the sector. Read on for MQ Research’s order of preference and target prices in an excerpt of the report dated 19 November 2021. Also, check out the associated Macquarie warrants over the glove names below.
Negatives are priced in
Incoming China glove supply threatens Malaysian manufacturers’ market share. However, MQ Research believes these negatives are priced in as share prices have now fallen 70-75% from pandemic highs. MQ Research believes large-cap Malaysia glove makers have a 25-35% production-cost advantage over China peers. MQ Research initiates on Malaysia’s glove manufacturers as valuations turn attractive despite average selling prices (ASP) in flux. All three glove makers in MQ Research’s coverage are trading at an enterprise value per share (EV/share) below pre-pandemic levels. If shares decline a further 10-15% - which MQ Research believes to be the absolute bottom – MQ Research sees an attractive entry point. ASPs are quickly declining (currently US$35-40 vs. mid-21 US$85-90 per ‘000 pieces), and MQ Research’s top pick Kossan’s differentiated product mix shields it from potential global oversupply. Kossan is trading at a steep discount to peers (post-pandemic PER discount to TopG/Hartalega of ~15%/ 50%) and at about half their pre-pandemic EV/share.
Production cost advantage over China/new entrants
China: MQ Research estimates that China glove manufacturers currently have 25-35% higher production costs vs. large-scale Malaysia manufacturers due to higher fuel and labour costs. If global oversupply occurs, and prices continue to decline, MQ Research believes Malaysian large-scale manufacturers will be the last to turn unprofitable. However, MQ Research expects China producers to continue to add capacity until costs normalise despite downward pressure on margins.
New entrants: MQ Research expects newer entrants in glove manufacturing to quickly become unprofitable as ASPs dive below production cost. Newer glove producers have an estimated production cost of US$35-40 per ‘000 pieces (vs. existing players of US$20-23). MQ Research believes newer players will either abandon expansion plans or exit the industry altogether.
Post-pandemic supply-demand outlook
Frost & Sullivan expects disposable glove demand to deliver a 15.9% volume compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) post-pandemic (2019-2025F) vs. 8.2% pre-pandemic due to increased hygiene awareness. MQ Research forecasts China producers to account for 24% of global supply post-pandemic (2023E) vs. 10% pre-pandemic (2019). MQ Research expects long-term ASPs to settle at US$24-26 per ‘000 vs. street estimates of US$25-30 on increased price pressure from China manufacturers. This is structurally higher than pre-pandemic prices of US$20-22 due to higher social compliance costs.
Valuations are now compelling; Kossan is MQ Research’s top pick
MQ Research uses a price-earnings ratio (PER) methodology to value glove manufacturers, applying MQ Research’s target multiples to post-pandemic FY23E/24E earnings per share (EPS) – years when MQ Research expects ASPs to stabilise. MQ Research’s multiples of 15x-21x represent between a -1.0SD to -0.25SD discount to pre-pandemic sector/company historical averages. Post-pandemic ASP uncertainty and labour practice issues linger. MQ Research’s order of preference is Kossan (OP) > Hartalega (OP) > Top Gloves (N).

The Group’s revenue for the quarter under review of RM63.9 million was 10.9% lower as compared to the revenue registered in the immediate preceding quarter of RM71.8 million, which was mainly due to lower sales of the semiconductor and heavy duty segments in the current quarter. During the quarter under review, the Group encountered logistical challenges for certain semiconductor equipment due to the nationwide Movement Control Order 3.0 (“MCO 3.0”) effective from 12 May 2021. Also, the Group was only allowed to operate at 60% capacity until 6 July 2021. MCO 3.0 was further extended where the Group was allowed to operate at 80% capacity from 7 July 2021 to 19 August 2021.
Over a two-day PIKAS programme, more than 80% of the Group’s employees received two doses of vaccination. Hence the Group was allowed to operate at full capacity effective from 20 August 2021 following the recent updates from the National Recovery Plan. In addition, the Group’s strategy was to gradually exit from the heavy-duty business in order to dedicate capacity to more profitable and higher margin segments.
The Group recorded PBT of RM23.9 million, a decrease of 12.1% from RM27.2 million recorded in the preceding quarter. The lower profit, which was mainly attributed to the semiconductor and heavy duty industries’ lower revenue, was partially mitigated by the drop in other operating expenses as well as the increase in dividend income as a result of the improved financial position, with the healthy cash position that enabled the Group to invest in marketable securities.

Investment case. We initiate coverage on TdC with an Outperform recommendation and a fair value of RM5.10 after attaching a target PER multiple of 13.4x to its core (excluding DiGi’s dividends) FY13 EPS of 17.5 sen plus the value of the current 275m DiGi shares held (valued based on our RM5.40 fair value). The ascribed target PER to TdC is a 5% discount to its international peers to account for TdC’s much smaller scale of operations. However, we believe TdC’s growth prospects are good, which justifies only a small discount.
