We believe marketing sales achievement could improve from 2Q24 onwards as new product launches continue to take place. However, BSDE and SMRA could report softer earnings in 2Q24 after a boost in 1Q24 results, while CTRA could deliver a more consistent revenue growth in 2Q24. We also note that property companies are optimistic in achieving their 2024 presales targets as mortgage rates remain attractive despite the recent interest rate hike. Maintain OVERWEIGHT with CTRA as our top pick.

Riverstone is set to benefit from the higher US tariffs on China’s gloves as it will ease the competition in the healthcare glove and lower-tier cleanroom glove industries. The US market’s contribution to Riverstone’s total revenue, which was 18% in 2023, could rise when the tariff starts. Riverstone’s 2025 PE of 16.6x is at a 60% discount vs peers’ average of 40.7x and offers a way higher dividend yield of 8% vs peers’ average of 1%. We raise our target price by 12% to S$1.12. Maintain BUY.
For 1Q24, StarHub reported higher PATMI (+8.1% yoy), driven by the enterprise business segment but offset by the group’s consumer businesses. Reaching the tail-end of its DARE+ investments programme, we expect the group’s margins to improve in 2H24 as investment costs taper off. In view of StarHub’s lush 2024 dividend yield of 6.3%, we maintain BUY with the same target price of S$1.41.
Frencken’s 1Q24 earnings of S$9m (+73% yoy) are in line with our expectation, forming 21% of our full-year forecast. The semiconductor and analytical life sciences segments remained the largest contributors in 1Q24, growing 37% and 17% yoy on higher demand from key customers in Europe. Frencken expects stable revenue in 1H24 vs 2H23 and a qoq improvement in 2Q24, with its strategic geographical presence and strong manufacturing capabilities. Maintain BUY. Target price: S$1.74.

FR’s 1Q24 results came in within our expectations, with margin enhancement on the back of lower production costs. Management’s decision to sell more CPO proved right, delivering higher margins.
