Meanwhile, RHB Research estimates a “worst-case impact of up to 12% on corporate earnings”, although this should be offset by the positive spillover to the broader economy from the expansionary budget proposals.

“Such a windfall tax is unprecedented in scope and scale — and should be categorised by investors as a policy risk, as well as a negative from the perspective of attracting new foreign direct investments and regional competitiveness, reflecting the country’s narrow revenue bandwidth and limited fiscal headroom,” it noted in a Saturday report.

The stamp duty increase on contract notes to 15bps from 10bps, and removal of the RM200 cap could dampen Bursa Malaysia’s trading velocity, it added.

“While the ongoing domestic economic recovery story will be supported by the consumer-friendly Budget 2022, evolving policy risks and the market’s adjustment to the broad scope of the windfall tax will add to market volatility,” RHB Research said.

“Given the overhanging external risks and lack of a clear roadmap to achieve further fiscal consolidation going forward, we expect the market to re-rate lower, even as forward P/Es spike higher with downside risks to FY22 earnings. Nonetheless, a sharp pullback could be an opportunity to re-weight into recovery plays at lower levels, including looking out for 'bombed-out' stocks,” it added.

RHB Research is "overweight" on sectors that include banks, healthcare, gaming, basic materials, oil and gas, transport, and logistics.

Market earnings outlook dampened by higher taxes — Credit Suisse
TheEdge Mon, Nov 01, 2021


KUALA LUMPUR (Nov 1): The outlook for market earnings is dampened by higher taxes announced for Budget 2022, opined Credit Suisse Research.

It noted in a Monday report that the stamp duty increase for stockbroking trades will increase the cost of trading and could adversely impact trading activity.

Meanwhile, it also estimated that the one-off increase in corporate tax rate could reduce Credit Suisse’s market growth forecast for Malaysia to 2% in 2022 (from 13%).

The foreign research house pointed out that “almost all companies” in its coverage universe “are expected to suffer a reduction in 2022 projected net profit due to the one-off corporate tax increase”.

The government aims to increase its tax revenue by 5.9% year-on-year to RM171.4 billion in 2022 with measures that include increasing stamp duty on contract notes from 0.1% to 0.15% and abolishing the RM200 limit, as well as one-off corporate tax increase for year of assessment 2022 to 24% tax rate for first RM100 million income and 33% tax rate for income more than RM100 million, it said.

While the higher one-off corporate tax is expected to reduce 2022 earnings of most companies, Credit Suisse listed the stocks/sectors that are “perceived to be in a comparatively better position to cope under Budget 2022”, which include: CTOS Digital Bhd, banks (top picks: CIMB Group Holdings Bhd, RHB Bank Bhd), property (Sime Darby Property Bhd, S P Setia Bhd), construction (Econpile Holdings Bhd, Gamuda Bhd), electric vehicle sector (Sime Darby Bhd, Yinson Holdings Bhd).

He said that developers had reflected their problems to the Chamber and expected the Government to reduce taxes and fees to the pre-coronary epidemic level.

He said that the Chamber would submit a memorandum to reflect the problems faced by developers as soon as possible.

In addition, Mr Wong stressed that developers are also facing a severe shortage of foreign workers.

He said the 20 to 30 per cent increase in the price of building materials was already too much for developers to bear, and that for some small projects, they could get by, but for large projects, it was hard to say what to say.

He said that the construction industry has always preferred to hire foreign workers, mainly because they can do one job to three, while local workers not only demand high wages, but also do not want to work in a hard industry.

"Now that we can't hire foreign workers and local people are reluctant to work in the construction industry, the progress of construction projects has been affected to a certain extent."

He stressed that instead of teaching people to fish, the government should teach them to catch fish and change their attitude towards work on their own initiative.

Wong Po Chun: Regulate the steel market

Malaysian Chamber of Real Estate Developers Kelantan Branch treasurer Wong Po Chun called on the government to monitor and regulate the steel market to avoid outrageous price hikes that would indirectly affect the construction industry.

He said that the increase in the price of building materials would have a significant impact on the construction industry, as the price of a signed sale and purchase agreement could not just go up.

He believes that the construction industry is an important part of the country's economic recovery, the government must not ignore the price hike of building materials and let the construction industry, an important sector of the economy, go unchecked.

Land division fees soar 500%
Construction industry in crisis

When questioned, Wong Po Chun cited the example of a land application for a subdivision that used to cost around RM100,000, but now costs RM500,000 to RM600,000.

"Not only have lot subdivision fees skyrocketed, but many taxes are also going up, such as the fees for submitting plans to the local government, etc. I hope the government is sympathetic to the plight of developers and builders."

Wong Po Chun said that the construction-related taxes and fees have risen at an alarming rate, and developers are feeling overwhelmed, especially during the epidemic and the control order, which has left them hurting.

Fang Tianfu: Industry caught unprepared

Steelmaker Datuk Fong Tien Fook said the price of some steel products had exceeded RM5,000 per tonne, catching the industry off guard and putting pressure on builders.



Chee Yuan Sheng: Losses on previous orders

The price of the project was based on the prevailing steel price, which was also the agreed price.

However, due to the emergence of unanticipated price increases, resulting in pre-orders or face losses, some peers even have to bear the burden themselves.

The spot market for steel is also very tight now, he said, mainly because market demand has recovered. In addition, iron ore, the raw material for steel, is also facing the problem of endless price increases, which will also have a direct impact on steel price movements.

Contractors fear bankruptcy as construction continues at old prices

Contractors across the country are complaining and fearing the risk of bankruptcy as the price of construction materials, especially steel, has soared by 60 to 100 per cent since the beginning of the year and this is expected to continue.

To add to their woes, the price of iron has risen a further 20 to 30 per cent in the last two weeks. The price of an iron bar has gone up from RM250 to RM300 to RM320.

According to reports, some retail shop owners say that the price is not fixed and is expected to continue to soar.

In the face of soaring prices for building materials, contractors have no choice but to continue to work on construction projects at the old agreed prices.

A construction contractor claimed that with the recent sharp increase in the price of steel from RM2,800 to RM4,000 per tonne, the average contractor has only two options, namely to postpone the construction work or to continue with the project already agreed upon and suffer losses.

"Apart from steel, other commodities such as cement, sand, bricks, electrical wires and pipes are also getting more expensive, with increases ranging from 20% to 100%. The price of cement, which used to be RM16 to RM17 per bag, has increased to RM19 refers to RM20."

The interviewed industry members said that in the past year, some building materials prices have risen sharply or even close to 100 per cent, which has brought problems to the industry that has already undertaken projects, not only to face the test of thinning profits, but also to face big pressure on capital.

The industry pointed out that with the recovery of the domestic economy, steel demand has also increased significantly; however, on the other hand, due to the tightening measures in the past due to epidemic prevention, production has been affected and demand exceeds supply; coupled with the rise in the price of steel raw materials, so that the water rises.

"I'm afraid it will take some time to pull steel back to a reasonable price level."

<Consumers will have to foot the bill>

Malaysian Electronic Commerce Association (MEA) director Ceng Jiejun said it was good that the government had imposed a sales tax on cheap products flown in, which was a recognition of the internet industry, but the wool comes off the sheep's back and ultimately consumers will pay for it.

He said online shopping is already part of everyday life and with the tax on foreign airfreight to the country under RM500, the prices of some goods may be adjusted in the short term and may be absorbed by some businesses themselves, but in the long run, the sales tax is treating all businesses equally.

"In the short term, it will affect consumers' willingness to buy, but I believe they will get used to it after a while, after all, it is now an e-commerce market.

"We are still waiting for more announcements from the authorities, including the rate of taxation, before we can really grasp the impact of the tax."

Malaysian Association of Small and Medium Enterprises (MASME) deputy president and chairman of the Malaysian Cross Border E-Commerce Association (MCBEA), Tan Chee Hiong, said that when the government adjusts the sales tax on overseas imports, it will mean "equal competition" between domestic and foreign e-commerce operators and brick-and-mortar shops, which may boost the business of brick-and-mortar shops as they compare prices.

"Prior to this, consumers were exempted from tax on goods under RM500, while local brick-and-mortar shops offered higher prices due to various cost considerations.

"Most importantly, when there is little difference in the price of products between foreign online shopping and local online shopping, consumers will choose local online shopping and a large amount of cash will stay in the country instead of leaving overseas, which is beneficial to the country."

Under the Budget 2022 proposal, from 2023 onwards, sales tax will be mandatory for both local and foreign merchants who sell cheap products below RM500 to our consumers by air, whether through online formats.

On its methodology, Forbes Asia said the list is meant to identify companies with long-term sustainable performance across a variety of metrics.

It said the companies on this list, which is unranked, were selected based on a composite score that incorporated their overall track record in measures such as debt, sales and earnings-per-share (EPS) growth over both the most recent fiscal one- and three-year periods, and the strongest one- and five-year average returns on equity (ROEs).

Aside from quantitative criteria, qualitative screens were used as well, such as excluding companies with serious governance issues, questionable accounting, environmental concerns, management issues or legal troubles.

State-controlled and subsidiaries of larger companies were also excluded.

In the Budget, it has been proposed that income tax be imposed on residents in Malaysia on income derived from foreign sources and received in Malaysia from Jan 1, 2022. This, Sim said, is in response to global developments such as the global minimum tax and the recent European Union’s action to include Malaysia in its “grey list”.

"This is a significant overhaul of our taxation system, which has been predominantly a territorial tax system. Some of the key issues to address is if dividends received locally will now be taxed because the law currently exempts local dividends from income tax due to the single-tier system that Malaysia adopts. There should also be a facility to claim tax relief should the same income be subject to tax elsewhere. In Singapore, certain foreign sourced income, such as foreign sourced dividends, are not subject to Singapore tax subject to fulfilment of certain conditions," Sim said.

"More details should be provided in the Finance Bill in this regard and I hope that there are special circumstances available for companies to continue to enjoy exemption for such income," he added.
