OCBC downgrades UOL Group to Hold

There is limited exposure to a still healthy mass-market residential segment, says OCBC.

Here’s more from OCBC Investment Research:

UOL has a strong track record of timing the property cycle well with spot-on execution at launches and we think this is a key strength of the company. Also, the group’s balance sheet is relatively healthy (cash S$334.2m and net gearing 33% as of end 1Q12) against potential macro-economic shocks from residual European uncertainties.

However, we are cognizant that there is limited exposure to a still healthy mass-market residential segment for the remainder of FY12. Downgrade to HOLD with an unchanged S$4.80 fair value estimate (30% discount to RNAV).

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
