[ET Net News Agency, 23 May 2018] Goldman Sachs raised its target price for BOC
Aviation (BOCA)(02588) to HK$58.1 from HK$52.5 on rollover, and retained its "buy" rating
noting the valuation is attractive at 7.5x 2018 P/E, roughly 20% cheaper than US peers.
The research house fine-tuned its estimates to reflect the latest operational data, with
2018-20 net income changing by -3.1%/-0.9%/+2.3%.
Goldman attended BOCA's investor day in Singapore on 17 May, which featured management's
presentations. It believes BOCA is a well run business with a robust model and competitive
advantages, operating in a structural growth industry (as demonstrated by its fairly
stable ROE through the cycle). (KL)
