SPH BUY Target Price $4.32 by OCBC Research

 Singapore Press Holdings (SPH) recently bid S$917m for a 99-year white site beside Jurong East MRT station and came just 5.4% below the top bid. We think management is committed to expanding their retail landlord business and could be interested in three GLS sites in 2H11, or TripleOne and 313@Somerset which are likely to come onto the market. We visited Clementi Mall and found that it has opened for operations smoothly with good foot traffic. Our S$4.32 fair value indicates an upside of 13.4% against the current price of S$3.81. Also, we think the downside is limited by an attractive dividend yield of 7.1%, which is underpinned by a core newspaper segment yielding solid recurrent cash. Upgrade SPH to BUY with a fair value estimate of S$4.32.
