In a Bursa announcement yesterday, Sarawak Energy Bhd said it has awarded a LoA
to Naim Holdings for the construction of Package B Part I and II of the 275KV
Overhead Transmission Line Projects for Bakun-Similajau Transmission System.
Since Leader is likely to be the lead supplier of wires and cables to this project, the
company is poised to gain both directly and indirectly. Hence, given improving
earnings visibility, we ascribe a higher PER of 8x against 6x previously to the
company’s cable and wire division in our Sum-of-Parts valuation. This results in an
upgrade on Leader’s target price to RM1.16 from RM0.93 previously. BUY call
maintained.
Project in hand? Our checks with sources indicate that this transmission line is part of the
second phase of the Bakun-Similajau Transmission System (BSTS). In fact, Leader had
previously supplied cables and wires for the first phase of the BSTS, which was awarded
by the same party. As such, we believe the cable and wires supply contract for the second
phase could well land on Leader’s lap.
