Regional Small/Mid Cap Strategy Q2 2008 Litrak Bloomberg: LTK MK | Reuters: LTKH.KL BUY RM3.58 KLCI : 1,229.95 Price Target : 12-Month RM 4.30 Potential Catalyst: Potential capital repayment and higher dividends Analyst Wong Ming Tek 603 2711 0956 mingtek@hwangdbsvickers.com.my Price Relative 4.50 4.00 3.50 3.00 2.50 2.00 RM Relative Index 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 Litrak (LHS) Relative KLCI INDEX (RHS) 204 184 164 144 124 104 84 64 Potential yield kicker Story: We foresee improving outlook for higher dividend. Under the new tax structure, companies can declare higher dividends without having to accumulate section 108 tax credit. In our opinion, there is also capacity to undertake more special distributions. Point: Based on our estimates, the new tax structure can result in doubling of dividend payments to RM0.20 from RM0.10 currently. The potential dividend increase to this level is sustainable with the Group’s strong operating cashflow. This is supported by the high traffic road alignment of Damansara Puchong Highway. Meanwhile, a special distribution can result in a onetime payout of RM0.90-RM0.95/share, in our opinion. Relevance: We reiterate our Buy call on Litrak. Our RM4.30 price target is based on a 15% discount to DCFvalue of RM5.05. The higher dividends may reduce the stock’s discount to DCF-value.
