BUY S$0.585 STI : 2,978.08

Price Target : 12-Month S$ 0.64 Reason for Report : Company update Potential Catalyst: Resolution of toll rate risk at HNE DBSV vs Consensus: Our DPS estimates are line with consensus Analyst Suvro SARKAR +65 6398 7973 suvro@dbsvickers.com

Risk/reward remains attractive

2H11 DPS of 2.75 Scts in line All key underlying assets achieved revenue growth in FY11; net dividend income for MIIF up 30% y-o-y Maintain BUY with TP of S$0.64; current dividend yield of 9.4% provides enough buffer against risk of toll rate cut at HNE
Decent organic growth at key assets. The fund generated net dividend income of S$48m in FY11, up 30% y-o-y owing to bigger stake in Taiwan Broadband Communications (TBC). MIIF declared an expected 2.75 Scts final DPS, taking total FY11 DPS to 5.5Scts. Underlying assets performance was satisfactory in FY11. Even Hua Nan Expressway (HNE) registered a surprise revenue growth of 1.3% despite the de-tolling of a competing expressway in Dec10. Revenue at Changshu Xinghua Port (CXP) grew by a strong 14%, on the back of continued strong growth in log volumes (up 52% y-o-y). TBC registered steady revenue growth of 3% on the back of stronger-than-expected growth in the digital TV segment (63% subscriber growth). This augurs well for higher investment income for MIIF in FY12. Going forward, the key risk is possible toll rate reduction at HNE Phase I, as the Guangdong government will be introducing uniform toll road standards. HNE Phase I toll rate may be cut by about 20% to be compliant with these new measures, which could be implemented by mid-2012. This could impact revenue by up to 15% over the next 2 years, and lead to one-off lower dividend income in FY13/14. But this should not come as a surprise. This well-known risk should be factored in the current share price. A worst-case impact from HNE toll rate cut could be a cut in FY12 DPU to 5.0Scts to smoothen out the effect. This still implies 8.6% yield. No change to our SOTP valuation of S$0.64, as we have already factored in downside at HNE (our valuation for HNE is 32% off management valuation). Maintain BUY for close to 20% total return potential. Share buyback activities will also continue to lend support to share price.
