SINGAPORE (Oct 30): Analysts are keeping their “hold” recommendations on Sembcorp Marine amid an expected slow recovery.
“Overall, despite the improved industry outlook, management mentioned ‘it will take some time’ before there is a sustained recovery in new orders, while competition remains intense and margins are compressed,” says OCBC Investment Research analyst Low Pei Han in an Oct 26 report.
OCBC has a fair value estimate of $1.73 on SembMarine.
