OCBC Report 6 Mar 14

KEY IDEA

United Envirotech: Upgrade to BUY

United Envirotech Ltd (UEL) has recently announced that it has won a contract worth RMB580m (S$120m) to design and build China’s largest MBR (membrane bio-reactor) waste-water treatment. In view of the latest order win, we bump up our FY15F revenue forecast by 8% and earnings by 4%. Still based on an unchanged 20x FY15F EPS, our fair value inches up from S$1.30 to S$1.36. And because of the recent pullback in UEL’s share price (post-results profit-taking), we note that there is now a healthy 15% upside, and hence we upgrade our rating from Hold to BUY. (Carey Wong)
