4QFY25’s headline net profit of S$410m (-29% yoy) was in line with our guidance of S$400m. However, stripping out one-off items, including a sizeable reversal of tax overprovision, FY25 core net profit missed our projection. The final DPS of 30 S cents was a positive surprise, but this level of dividend is likely unsustainable. Despite support from benign fuel prices, FY26 net profit is likely to be dragged by full-year negative contributions from associate Air India. Maintain HOLD. Target: S$6....

Mar 25 pax load dropped 0.8% yoy while cargo load rose 2.0% yoy. We keep our 4QFY25 net profit forecast at S$400m, down 30% yoy and 24% qoq. The recent sharp drop in jet fuel prices would support SIA’s FY26 financial performance, leading to a 17% lift in our FY26 earnings forecast. Cargo faces more uncertainties in the medium term, but 1QFY26 may benefit from Asia ex-China’s shipment frontloading ahead of US tariff uncertainties. Maintain HOLD. Target price:S$6.22.

The selloff driven by the US’ unprecedented and perplexing tariff plans has liberated many investors of profits this year. Given the fluidity of market conditions, we highlight a number of domestic-focused stocks such as CENT, CD, DFI, HLA, PANU, PROP, RFMD, SSG and SIE as well as Singapore-focused REITS such as CDLHT, FEHT, FCT, KREIT, LREIT and PREIT. In addition, the MAS’ equity market review should inject much needed liquidity in 2H25. We lower our STI target to 3,720 (previously 4,115).
KEY HIGHLIGHTS Strategy Small Mid Cap: Identifying stocks that could benefit from MAS’ S$5b liquidity boost. Results Seatrium (STM SP/BUY/S$2.38/Target: S$2.96): 2024: After seven long years, STM is back in the black. Maintain BUY with a slightly higher target price of S$2.96.

SIA’s 3QFY25 core net profit of S$528m (-14.8% yoy, +76.7% qoq) came in within guided range of S$500m-600m, at the lower part. 3QFY25 pax yield (-5.1% yoy) was slightly better than expected, but its positive impact on earnings was largely offset by higher-than-expected non-fuel cost per unit of capacity. Management expects pax and cargo yield moderation to continue into FY26, but pace of pax yield moderation is likely to be slower than that in FY25. Upgrade SIA to HOLD. Target price: S$6.09.

SIA’s Dec 24 pax data was in line but cargo load data missed our expectation. We forecast SIA’s 3QFY25 core earnings at S$500m-600m, a significant qoq rebound from S$290m in 2QFY25, due to strong seasonality and a qoq decline in jet fuel prices. While supply-demand balance for pax capacity may stay favourable for yields in 2025, we do not see any strong catalysts to sustain SIA’s valuation at the current level of 1.18x FY26F P/B (0.5SD above historical mean). Maintain SELL. Target price: S$5.80.

SIA’s 2QFY25 headline net profit of S$290m (-59% yoy, -36% qoq) came in below our guided range of S$360m-460m, due to slightly higher-than-expected operating costs. While pax travel and cargo demand are robust, SIA’s core profitability is likely to stay in an overall moderating trend in FY25-26, as pax and cargo yields remain under pressure amid an increased capacity supply. The speed of Air India’s turnaround is a key wild card. Maintain SELL on SIA, with a slightly lower target price of S$5.72...

SIA’s pax load factor remained below pre-pandemic levels for the second consecutive month in Aug 24, although pax capacity supply was still marginally below pre-pandemic levels. This is a confirmative sign that SIA is facing increased competition, in our view. We estimate SIA’s upcoming 2QFY25 earnings at S$360m-460m, a sizeable yoy decline from 2QFY24’s S$707m and also likely a qoq fall from 1QFY25’s S$452m. Maintain SELL with a slightly higher target price of S$5.83.
