City Developments

UOBKayhian on 17 Feb 2015

FY15F PE (x): 13.8
FY16F PE (x): 11.8

Results below expectations. City Developments (CDL) reported 4Q14 net profit of S$384.9m, up 73% yoy, bringing full-year net profit to S$769.6m, up 12% yoy. Property development PBT increased 47% yoy in 4Q14, largely due to full revenue recognition from Blossom Residences which obtained TOP in Sep 14. The strong performance from the hotel segment was primarily due to contributions from recently-acquired refurbished hotels in the US (particularly Millennium Hotel Minneapolis), and the UK. The decrease in pre-tax profit for rental properties was mainly attributed to an absence of substantial gains on disposal of non-core investment properties. Excluding gains from the securitisation of its Sentosa properties (Quayside Collection: W Hotel, Retail and The Residences at W Singapore), results were below our expectations, mainly due to timing differences. Maintain HOLD and target price of S$10.84, pegged at a 20% discount to our RNAV of S$13.55/share. Entry price is S$8.70.
