0633 GMT - Seatrium's stock could see a boost in 2H as its order book expands, say Macquarie Capital analysts in a note. The Singapore offshore and marine company's contracting activity was low in 1H, but the order flow is likely to pick up in 2H and drive gains in the stock, they say. The analysts note the company is confident of sustaining its gross profit margin expansion, which could reach 9.0% in 1H, above Macquarie's estimate. They see an attractive risk-reward profile for the stock at its current levels around 1.94 Singapore dollars, which implies around 0.95X its price-to-book ratio. Macquarie retains its neutral rating and S$2.58 target price. Shares are down 1.0% at S$1.99. (megan.cheah@wsj.com)
