Vietnam’s T&G sector – Exports remain weak, eyes on brands’ destocking cycle & consumption recovery

  • In the first four months of 2023, Vietnam's garment export turnover was USD 9.7 tn (-17.9% YoY). Due to the destocking cycle of brands, while consumption outlook remains weak, brands turned more conservative in placing new orders. Yarn export turnover also plummeted, recording USD 1.3 tn (-32.8% YoY) due to a significant decrease in imports from China (-37.0% YoY).
  • We expect that 1Q23 earnings will bottom for T&G companies. Due to the brand's destocking cycle, we expect new orders to improve in 2H2023. Hence, we still recommend that investors wait for clearer signs of textile & garment companies’ improved order volume. We still prefer buy-rated STK (TP of VND 32,500); maintain accumulate on MSH (TP of VND 40,000), neutral on TNG (increase TP of VND 20,200 for TNG on the back of higher 2023 earnings estimates); reduce-rated on TCM (TP of 39,800) due to high priced with limited catalysts in sight.
