• The palm oil price is developing more favorably than anticipated, which is compensating for weaker than expected production volumes. • SIPEF guides for FY24 net profit to be close to last year, which means that we could raise our net profit estimates by a few million.• We stick to our view that SIPEF's valuation is too low (EV/hectare
• The FY23 net profit was a few million ahead, while the guidance for 2024 of ‘a slightly lower net result' clearly exceeds our estimates. • The impact of volcano eruption in PNG is compensated by volume growth in Indonesia. We will increase our FY24/25 net profit by up to USD 10m.• We stick to our view that SIPEF's valuation is too low (EV/hectare
Sipef provided an update on the impact of the Mount Ulawun eruption in PNG, located not far from Hargy Oil Palms (HOPL), a 100% subsidiary of Sipef. After carrying out an inspection on the infrastructure and plantations, Sipef expects the impact in 2023 to be limited, yet foresees a maximum production decline of 20% at HOPL in 2024 and full recovery after 2.5-3 years. Based on today's net selling prices of around $ 900/t, this would translate into a $ 1.4m net profit impact in 2023 and maximum o...
*Eruption of Mount Ulawun only has a limited impact on 2023 profits, resulting in its guidance left unchanged *For 2024, though, the impact could be larger, up to USD 15m or some 20% of our net profit estimate. Long term value creation is not impacted *Short term negative impact does not affect its long term potential – BUY and EUR 74.0 TP reiterated, using UDS 11k per hectare
Sipef reported a nice 3Q23 update. Although the 4.4% decrease in palm oil production came in slightly below our expectations, the softer volume outlook is expected to be offset by reduced input costs. Because of this, Sipef now banks on a recurring net result (gs) at the “higher end” of the $ 65-$75m range, compared to “between” $60-$70m previously. After increasing our estimates in line with the guidance, we reiterate our Buy & € 66.0 TP.
Despite light production volumes, SIPEF raises its FY23 guidance for recurring net profit from USD 60-70m towards the higher-end of USD 65-75m on the back of sound palm oil price levelsWe see room to increase our FY23 net profit estimate of USD 67m to USD 73-74m. However, we leave our FY24 net profit virtually unchangedWe stick to our view that SIPEF's valuation is too low (EV/hectare
• The H1-23 recurring net profit came in a few million below our estimate, due to lower than expected volumes. • SIPEF guides for 'satisfactory recurring result of USD 60-70m'. We may tweak our FY23 net profit downwards by a few million.• We stick to our view that SIPEF's valuation is too low (EV/hectare
