“SapuraCrest also has a huge order book of RM10 billion, the largest among locally listed stocks,” it said.
However, including the full five-year Pan Malaysian pipe-laying contract, its gross order book is even larger at RM13 billion, with a sizeable oil and gas asset ownership.
At present, it has a substantial seadrill equity participation of 24 per cent and strong earnings forecasts from financial year 2009 to 2013 with a compound annual growth rate of 24 per cent.
“Hence, we maintain financial year 2011 forecast to financial year 2013 forecast earnings for now, which project annual earnings growth of up to 19 per cent, underpinned by the group’s RM10 billion order book,” it added.
AmResearch said the stock currently trades at an attractive 2010 forecast price earnings of 13 times, compared to over 25 times registered by SapuraCrest and Wah Seong back in 2007.
