Company Report: HAH - Domestic Container Shipping Giant

Since the first vessel purchased in 2014, HAH has been expanding its fleet merely every year. As a result, by 2021, HAH owns eight vessels, the largest container fleet in Vietnam, with a total capacity of 11,000 TEU. As a result, it is the market leader in domestic container transportation. We believe that with larger vessels, HAH has advantages over competitors, including 1) getting priority in providing feeder services for MLOs; 2) bidding higher charter rates for large-sized vessels and 3) more stable shipping schedule and higher operating efficiency. Besides, owing the largest container fleet, HAH has capability to cover the most extensive domestic shipping routes, thereby diversifying the source of goods.

The chartering business will have significant growth as HAH has increased the number of vessels for this segment to three vessels, namely Haian Link, Haian East and Haian West. On the back of favorable charter rates and long-term charter of one to two years, we believe the businesses will be the main driver for HAH’s growth in 2021F-22F.

Recovery of transport demand upon the loosening of strict social distancing will fuel the growth of transported volume in Q4-2021 and 2022F. Besides, tight vessel supply coupled with recovery of transport demand will increase freight rates in Q4-2021 as well as in 2022F.

Consequently, we expect HAH’s gross revenue to reach VND 1,675 Bn (or USD 74 Mn, +41% YoY) and VND 2,044 Bn (or USD 90 Mn, 22% YoY) in 2021F and 2022F respectively. On the back of strong growth in the chartering segment, coupled with transport demand recovery and higher freight rates, the NPATMI will be VND 320 Bn (or USD 14 Mn, +131% YoY)/VND 506 (or USD 22 Mn, +58% YoY) in 2021F/22F. EPS will be VND 6,558/VND 10,376 in 2021F/22F.

Using a P/E multiple of 9x (50%) and FCFE (50%), we come up with a fair value of VND 80,300 per share, equal to a total return of 16%, based on the closing price on October 22nd, 2021. We recommend "ACCUMULATING" the stock.
