♦ Naim Cendera, a new player. While Samsung Engineering has significant Source: RHBRI
experience in energy projects in the Middle East, Africa and South East Asia, its
local partner Naim Cendera is relatively new to the oil and gas sector, with
their latest awards being from Assar Senari for the construction of an oil and
gas jetty in Tanjung Manis in July 2010. Nevertheless, we suspect their
involvement is mainly due to their civil expertise, while Samsung Engineering
will handle the technical part of the project. Other bidders had included
Kencana and Dialog.
♦ Near-term uncertainty still intact. We expect contract awards to gain
momentum going into the tail-end of FY10, with the next awards likely to be

The recommendation framework for stocks and sectors are as follows : -

Stock Ratings

Outperform = The stock return is expected to exceed the FBM KLCI benchmark by greater than five percentage points over the next 6-12 months.

Trading Buy = Short-term positive development on the stock that could lead to a re-rating in the share price and translate into an absolute return of 15% or
more over a period of three months, but fundamentals are not strong enough to warrant an Outperform call. It is generally for investors who are willing to take
on higher risks.

Market Perform = The stock return is expected to be in line with the FBM KLCI benchmark (+/- five percentage points) over the next 6-12 months.

Underperform = The stock return is expected to underperform the FBM KLCI benchmark by more than five percentage points over the next 6-12 months.

Industry/Sector Ratings

Overweight = Industry expected to outperform the FBM KLCI benchmark, weighted by market capitalisation, over the next 6-12 months.

Neutral = Industry expected to perform in line with the FBM KLCI benchmark, weighted by market capitalisation, over the next 6-12 months.

Underweight = Industry expected to underperform the FBM KLCI benchmark, weighted by market capitalisation, over the next 6-12 months.
