Valuation
BSC recommends BUY BSR shares with a target price of 34.400 VND/SHARE (equivalent to 27% upside compared to the closing price on 01/06/2022 of 27.1 00 VND/SHARE) based on the P/E and FCFF methods. We are confident in the positive outlook for BSR thanks to (1) Rising oil prices that help crack spreads of BSR products remain high; and (2) Demand for petroleum products recovering when the epidemic is under control.
