Top Glove Earnings Likely to Normalize After Having Peaked -- Market Talk

Jun 19

0124 GMT - Top Glove's windfall earnings likely peaked in fiscal 3Q and are expected to trend toward more normal levels ahead, says CIMB Securities analyst Chun Sung Oong in a note. Oong attributes this to the easing of average selling prices from the peak levels of US$26-US$28 per 1,000 pieces since June. Profitability could moderate as selling prices come down and higher raw material costs filter through results, he says. A weaker pricing environment may cause customers to delay purchases as buyers anticipate further price declines, he adds. CIMB downgrades Top Glove's rating to reduce from hold on expectation of softer earnings and maintains a target price of 0.63 ringgit. Shares are 1.4% higher at 0.73 ringgit.
