- SIP’s IP portfolio has a total area of up to 3,207 ha in prime location. In particular, the available for lease area is approximately 1,000 hectares. This is enough supply for SIP to exploit in the long term.
- Residential real estate and utility services segments are oriented to sustainable development in the long term. We see that SIP is oriented to follow the model of 1 closed ecosystem that deploys other complementary business activities to support industrial park’s operation.
- In 2022, SIP plans consolidated revenue of VND 5,200 billion and NPAT of VND 668 billion, down 7% and 26% YoY respectively. In the first 6 months of 2022, SIP recorded revenue of VND 3,086.7 billion, up 3% and completed 59.4% of the year plan. Meanwhile, NPAT reached VND 501.26 billion, down 9% YoY and completed 60% of the year plan.
- We saw SIP as a potential investment not only in terms of land bank but also the ability to exploit accompanying services to increase the added – value for the firm. Besides, a healthy balance sheet will help SIP maintain an annual cash dividend of at least 2,000 VND/share. After adjusting the unearned revenue target to synchronize the accounting method with other peers, the adjusted P/B of SIP is 1.33, which is lower than the industry average of 2.

LTG – Plant protection business: challenges in 2022 create growth opportunities for 2023

- 1H2022 revenue of the plant protection business (also named LTV) of Loc Troi Group (Upcom: LTG) had a negative growth of -6.6% YoY to VND1,948 bn. In Dec-2021, LTG terminated the partnership with Syngenta (accounting for ~30% of total sales of LTV), dragged down the revenue of LTV in 2022.
- To fuel long-term growth of this business without Syngenta, LTG is restructuring its selling policy. Consequently, the Q2/2022 gross margin of the LTV segment went down to 20.6% (-2,890 bps QoQ; -1,450 bps YoY). We expect that LTG will continue extending the new selling policy in 2H2022. As a result, 2022 gross margin of LTV will have a hard time to improve.
- We believe that the 2022 performance will reflect all of the negative effect of the termination of the Syngenta partnership. 2023 results are expected to show growth due to 1) 2022 low-base; 2) higher market share thanks to the successful selling strategy; and 3) LTG ‘s agriculture ecosystem.
