Hyundai Heavy Industries (009540.KS): Improving sector fundamentals

- For 2017, we forecast HHI to report revenue of KRW17.7tn and operating profit of KRW604.3bn (3.4%

operating margin) on an ROE of 3.9%. The commercial ship and offshore divisions are likely to post low

single-digit operating margins but engine profitability is likely to be handsome. We also find it positive

that the order backlog for rigs is now depleted.

- Order momentum is gaining steam, especially for VLCCs. Until May, the company’s three consolidated

subsidiaries won USD3.8bn worth of orders. It appears that sector fundamentals have bottomed out. We

also note that the shipbuilder has secured new orders for 28 100K-tonne tankers in May YTD which

represents 67% of worldwide orders, a testament to its competitiveness in the field.
