Valuation

§  BSC maintained its recommendation to BUY HPG shares but revised down its one-year target price to VND42,100 per share, equivalent upside 27% of 07/06/2022 price.

§  We use two methods to value PE and EV/EBITDA, adjusting the target levels to P/E = 7.0x and EV/EBITDA = 5.5x from the previous report, reflecting the market's severe discounting in the face of inflation risks and declining demand.

Forecasting business results

§  We adjusted HPG's Net revenue and NPAT projections for 2022 to VND171,798 billion (+15% YoY) and VND27,576 billion (-20% YoY), respectively, EPS FW = VND 6,154/CP.

§  We maintained our forecast (i) Total steel consumption of all kinds increased by 8.7% yoy, but adjusted the assumption of steel prices and raw material prices based on actual fluctuations in 5M2022 as follows: (ii) Long steel price +10% yoy; (iii) Flat steel price +5% yoy; (iv) Iron ore price -25% yoy and Coal price +100% yoy.
