[ET Net News Agency, 5 October 2018] Credit Suisse lowered its target price for Tongda
Group Holdings (00698) to HK$1.4 from HK$1.8 given weak sentiment on supply chain, but
upgraded its rating to "outperform" from "neutral" as the stock has corrected 31% over the
past three months.
The research house likes Tongda's strategy of diversifying from metal casing and
focusing on (1) Building IMT casing; (2) Expanding Apple's new businesses; and (3)
Sustaining traditional businesses.
It also noted that current share price is attractive, given current low valuation (5x
P/E on 2019 EPS).
Credit Suisse revised its 2018-20 EPS forecasts by -8% to 2% for GM, product mix and MI
due to purchase of subsidy. (KL)
