INVESTMENT THESIS
- By removing the legal difficulties in converting rubber land to industrial parks, PHR expects to benefit from the compensation from VSIP 3 Industrial Park and record high profit/dividend from the joint venture company NTC in the period 2022-2024.
- Long-term growth is ensured by IPs that are in the research phase, expected to be implemented in the period of 2023-2025.
- The main business segment is rubber, which is expected to remain positive in the short term thanks to (1) maintained selling prices when the product structure shifts to high-quality rubber and (2) higher exploitation output when the age of the tree is higher.
RISK
- Compensation progress from VSIP 3 Industrial Park is slower than expected.
- Industrial zones that are in the research phase still do not have much information and the risk of delay in project approval from management agencies.
BUSINESS UPDATE
- In 6M2022, revenue reached VND 607 billion (down -20% YoY) while NPAT reached VND 346 billion (increase 116% YoY) thanks to the recording of VND 289 billion in compensation, supporting early liquidation losses for the implementation of VSIP 3 Industrial Park while income from rubber (down -12% YoY) and wood (down -73% YoY) witnessed a slowdown after 2 years of benefiting from high business rubber prices.
