Ezra cut to ‘hold’ by DBS Vickers, trims target price to $2.62
DBS Vickers Securities has downgraded Ezra Holdings (5DN.SG) to “hold” from “buy”,
trimming its target price to $2.62 from $2.75 after lowering fiscal FY10 net profit
forecast by 14% to reflect lower fiscal 2Q10 earnings, according to Dow Jones.
“At current price levels, we believe that most of the positives have been priced in.
In the near term, the share price is unlikely to outperform,” says the broker. Notes
2Q10 net profit down 31% on-year at US$10.4 million ($14.5 million) on lower margins
due to repair, maintenance of certain vessels.
But adds 2Q10 performance more likely “a one-off hiccup” as all of Ezra’s vessels now
back in service.
A huge drop of -$0.12 almost wipe out last week's gains.
Agree that there are downside when more people found out and start to digest the financial reports.
Offshore support services - $$ spent on maintenance and refurbishment (a good thing). However, no clear indication of when will the "next charter project" be...
Deepwater subsea Services - no more income from drilling activities. FY10 projected lower revenue (this is worrying).
Sold and got out.

More downside this week.

Would anyone like to check if this is accurate? If so, this would make it pretty expensive in terms of valuations. The market must be pricing in very very explosive growth for it to trade at such valuations.
Not vested.

sure or not, target price 1.20
think shd more like 2.35 rite?
Ezra will report Q22010 earnings on the 9th April post close

downside as market expectations on new contracts for the

Is this good news and how will it affects the shares price?
