The escalating tariff war poses significant uncertainties for the global trade outlook in the medium term. SATS, due to its significant 50%/25% revenue exposure to the global/US air cargo handling business, is poised to be negatively impacted by a potential setback in globalisation and decline in global trade volume. We tentatively cut our FY26-27 air cargo volume projections for SATS by 5%, and lower our earnings projections by 17-18%. Downgrade SATS to HOLD. Target price: S$2.89.

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).

SATS’ 3QFY25 financial performance was a slight miss against our expectations, with 3QFY25 normalised net profit of S$73.3m largely flat qoq, while we were expecting a qoq growth. The miss was due to weaker-than-expected profit from the food solutions segment. We expect 4QFY25 to be seasonally weaker. For FY26, profitability of SATS’ food solutions segment should continue to improve but cargo faces more uncertainties from the US de minimis tax change. Maintain BUY with a lower target price of S$...

The US’ change in de minimis tax rule for air cargo is a negative development for SATS, but its negative earnings impact should be capped at high single digit in FY26-27 by our estimate and are also likely to have been priced in by SATS’ recent share price decline. We forecast SATS’ 3QFY25 core earnings at S$81m, a fine performance with qoq and yoy improvement. Investors may stay invested with SATS for its long-term growth potential. Maintain BUY with a lower target price of S$4.00.
