Cosco Corporation
Excellent scorecard
• FY10 earnings (+126%) came in 26% ahead of market estimates
• Fuelled by improved shipbuilding margins, higher offshore contribution and tax savings
• Offshore contracts + earnings recovery + potential parental restructuring = Outperformance
• BUY the leading Chinese offshore play TP raised to S$3.16
A super 4Q10. 4Q net earnings surged 431% y-o-y and 70%
q-o-q to S$93.6m on strong margin recovery from
shipbuilding, higher-than-expected offshore revenue, cost
savings from preferential tax rate and tightened cost
management. This brings FY10 net profit to S$249m, beating
our and consensus estimates by 18% and 26%, respectively.
Shipbuilding margins leaped further. Adding back the cost
overrun provision of S$24m for the heavy lift, car carrier and
wind turbine installation vessel, Cosco’s bottomline would
have been stronger at over S$117m, raising overall margins by
2.5ppt. In particular, gross margin for bulk carriers is estimated
to have lifted to 11-12% from c.10% in 3Q due to efficiency
gains, cuts in staff headcount and lower steel cost. We expect
margin to be sustainable at 10% in FY11, as efficiency gains
offset rising production costs.
Riding the offshore wave. Offshore contribution to revenue
has increased from 15% in FY09 to 24% in FY10 and is
expected to rise further to 40% by 2012 assuming offshore
orders of US$2bn this year. Cosco’s first mover advantage into
offshore and relatively more proven track record puts it in a
favourable position among the Chinese yards to benefit from
the return of offshore contracts.
BUY into the leading Chinese offshore play. We raise our
FY11/12F net profit by 7.6/2.7% after factoring the lower
preferential tax rate. Maintain Buy with target price raised to
S$3.16 following the earnings revision, still based on blended
FY11/12F PE and P/BV. Catalysts in place are: (1) stronger
offshore contract flows 2) injection of strategic stakes by the
parent and 3) continuous shipbuilding delivery. Key risks
remain rising steel prices, RMB appreciation, suppressed
newbuild prices and weakening freight rates.

Cosco Corporation - 4Q10 Results - Hope has returned
4Q10 net profit of S$94m (+431% yoy, +70% qoq) beat consensus and our expectation
of S$50m. FY10 net profit forms 124% of our estimate as there was: 1) stronger revenue
from offshore 2) higher profits from shipping and 3) lower tax rates though offset by a
S$24m provision for losses for construction contracts in shipbuilding and offshore. We
increase our FY11-12 earnings estimates by 11-29% and introduce FY13 forecasts.
Following our upgrade, our target price climbs to S$2.85 (from S$2.63), still based on
18x CY12 P/E, in line with upcycle valuations for Singapore rig builders. We continue to
expect catalysts from contract wins and margin expansion.

FY2010 results
Cosco reported FY2010 revenue of S$3,861.4m (+33% y-y) and net profit of S$248.8m              (+126% y-y). The revenue was 11.8% higher than our estimate of US$3,454.2m while the net profit was 18.0% better than our forecast of US$210.9m.
 
The better-than-expected performance was due to greater turnover from shipbuiilding and marine engineering projects that offset the decline in dry bulk shipping business.
  Our views on the results
Cosco reported strong results and we are confident on its performance for this year. Indeed, we expect earnings of S$300.3m in FY2011E. Moreover, it remains focused on cost management. For instance, it aims to maintain staff costs at the same level as FY2010 by decreasing the amount of contract labour to offset the impact from the increase in wages. It is also optimistic on the amount of new orders for dry bulk vessels, and offshore marine vessels such as semi-submersible rigs and floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) vessels. It has a target of 40% of its order book from offshore marine projects. Although there is a drop in short-term dry bulk shipping rates as reflected in the Baltic Dry Index (BDI), it believes that this is a good time to order new dry bulk vessels. Finally, by paying a higher dividend of S$0.04 per ordinary share for FY2010 compared to S$0.03 for FY2009, it shows that it is optimistic about the future.
 
Maintain buy recommendation and fair value at S$2.68
Cosco constantly strives to improve its productivity by reducing the time required to build dry bulk vessels and offshore marine vessels. Similarly, it has been securing new orders for dry bulk vessels and offshore marine vessels since 2010. We believe that orders will improve further in 2011 as it benefits from the global economic recovery. In fact, we project orders of S$3.8 billion in 2011. Therefore, we maintain our buy recommendation and fair value at S$2.68, which is 20 times FY2011E earnings per share
