Investment case
QL is now one of the largest surimi manufacturers in Asia and a Malaysian market leader in livestock feed raw material distribution, fishmeal and egg production. Earnings growth will come from all 3 business divisions, with key earnings growth catalyst being the Indonesian plantation. Robust demand for QLs food supply-related products will be driven by growing Asian food demand in tandem with rising population and disposable income. QL has grown earnings at a CAGR of 20.5% from FY01 to FY10, and has achieved uninterrupted earnings growth since FY88. Given its regional expansion and resilient, inflation-resistant business, we anticipate a 3-year forward EPS CAGR of 17.2% (FY11-13) driven by capacity expansion and firm prices for feed commodities, poultry, marine products and CPO.

QL is replicating its business models in the ASEAN region, with layer and breeder farms in Cianjur, Indonesia, layer farm in Tay Ninh, Vietnam; surimi and fishmeal plants in Surabaya; and oil palm plantation and mill in Tarakan, Indonesia. By venturing into neighbouring countries, QL leverages on its knowledge and skills to take advantage of the natural resources available and tap on new markets. Palm oil activities will be the key earnings growth catalyst when the Indonesian plantation matures in FY12. While the POA segment only accounted for 18% of group revenue in FY10, we expect that it will increase to 26% in FY13.

Key feed commodity prices- maize and soybean meal- rose in CY10 in tandem with high wheat prices resulting from drought-ridden Russias halt on exports. We expect further uptrend in CY11 wheat price due to excessive year-end rainfall in Australia and Europe. Maize price is expected to increase as well because stocks of yellow maize have fallen to lows last seen in 2008. Higher soybean meal price in CY11 will be driven by increase in livestock farming activities to fulfil the global demand for meat.

ILF farming operations comprises 5 layer farms and 1 broiler farm, spread out across Peninsula and East Malaysia. QL is one of the largest layer farming outfits in the country with FY10 output of 913m eggs that accounts for c.10% of Malaysian market share. The group also produced 10m day-old chicks and 7m broilers in FY10.

QLs poultry products generally enjoy resilient demand as demonstrated by the egg consumption in Peninsula Malaysia that has increased by a CAGR of 4% over the past 10 years. The demand for eggs is fairly inelastic as it is a basic food item and one of the cheapest sources of protein available.
QL earns 0.5-1.0 sen more profit per egg compared to its competitors because of cost savings from importing its own feed. Generally, QL makes a profit margin of 2-3 sen per egg with average selling price of 23.0 sen per egg. The price of eggs in Malaysia has risen gradually, as shown below.

Further growth via acquisitions is likely as illustrated by QLs move to buy a 23.29% stake in Lay Hong for RM11.6m in August 2010. The acquisition price of RM1.05 per share represents an undemanding 4.7x FY10 P/E and 52% of RM2.00 NTA per share. By buying into Lay Hong, QL intends to improve its supply chain network and enables cheaper raw material procurement via economies of scale.

The biggest contributors to MPM revenue are surimi and surimi-based products (70% of FY10 MPM revenue), followed by fishmeal (22%). QL also has a small frozen seafood division (<5% MPM revenue) that exports frozen fish, shellfish and squid to the US, Australia, EU, China and Hong Kong.

Surimi is a paste made from white-fleshed fish that has been rinsed and pulverized. The paste is frozen in blocks and is used to make end-products such as fish cakes and crabsticks. Approximately 50% of QLs surimi output is exported to key markets of Japan, Korea, Singapore, China and Taiwan. The company also manufactures downstream surimi-based products for the local market to counter volatility in surimi prices. The chilled and frozen products such as seafood tofu and fish balls are sold under the brand names Ocean Ria, Mushroom and Figo.

Surimi prices have been steadily recovering in CY10 due to tightening global whitefish supplies (with Alaska Bering Sea Pollock quota cut in CY10). The price of surimi has increased by approximately 16% y-o-y in FY10. This is encouraging after the steep decline in 1HCY09 that was caused by the economic crisis curtailing Japanese demand for surimi products and moderation from the spike in 1HFY09 as a result of elevated oil price. 25% of Malaysias fishmeal output comes from QLs 4 plants (26,000 mt). 90% of QLs fishmeal production is exported to the likes of China and Indonesia. Fishmeal processing entails cooking, drying and grinding the waste from surimi production- head, bones and skin of the fish- into a nutrient-rich ingredient used in aquaculture and livestock feed. Fishmeal price in FY10 has came off by 15% since the record high of US$1,961/mt in April 2010 as a result reduced demand from Chinas aquaculture industry that has been negatively impacted by severe flooding this year. The decline in fishmeal price also represents a moderation from the surge in April 2010 caused by supply shortages from the Chilean earthquake in February 2010.

Having Malaysia as its marine base presents QL with the competitive advantages of subsidised diesel for its deep sea fishing activities, plentiful supply of fish (with the absence of national fishing quotas) and tax incentives for its fishing vessels. Approximately 5% of QLs total fish requirements are supplied by its own 23 fishing fleet, based in Hutan Melintang, Perak and Sepangar Bay, Sabah. QL is not resting on its laurels however and is seeking further growth opportunities in Indonesia. The group is building a marine plant on a 10-hectare piece of land in Surabaya that is due for completion by end-FY11. Phase 1 of the plant will cost USD10m (RM31.5m) and will increase QLs marine production capacity by 20% (5,000 mt surimi and 5,000 mt fishmeal). We anticipate that the Surabaya plant will begin to make positive earnings contribution in FY12.

The biggest catalyst for QLs POA division will be the 20,000 hectare Indonesian plantation once it reaches maturity. QLs 75% stake in the Indonesian plantation is expected to deliver positive earnings contribution in FY12 once the trees begin to bear fruit but expect significant contribution in FY13. Currently 8,000 hectares have been planted to-date with internal target of 15,000 hectares to be reached by end-FY13. A CPO mill is also being constructed on the Indonesian site that will have a total annual capacity of 90,000 mt when it is completed by end-CY11. QL is also venturing into renewable energy with construction of zero-waste palm oil mill and acquisition of a 40.5% stake in Boilermech Sdn Bhd. Under the zero-waste palm oil mill, QL is setting up a palm biomass pelletization plant that will use its proprietary system to produce palm pellets from empty fruit bunches (EFB) for industrial steam and power generation and palm oil mill effluent (POME) biogas power plant that will generate power to fuel the pelletization plant. The plants are slated to begin operations in December 2010 and will be located at QLs CPO mill in Tawau, Sabah. The pelletization plant will have a production capacity of 40,000 mt per year and will cost QL RM10m capex. The palm oil pellets target export markets of Japan, Korea and the EU where there is a ready market for wood biomass pellets that are mainly used in domestic central heating furnaces. The key advantage that palm pellets have over wood pellets are long-term sustainability of raw material supply with an estimated dried EFB supply of 7-8m mt per year in Malaysia alone. QL acquired a 40.51% stake in Boilermech Sdn Bhd (BSB) by QL in October 2010. BSB designs, manufactures and installs biomass boilers mainly for the palm oil industry. The acquisition price of RM29.2m represents a FY10 P/E of 5.9x. QLs investment in BSB complements its renewable energy business and provides access to the burgeoning markets of Thailand, Myanmar and Cambodia that BSB has a presence in. Having acquired the 40.51% stake in BSB, QLs wholly owned subsidiary QL Green Resources Sdn Bhd subsequently undertook a share swap with BHB for its 40.51% interest in BSB in exchange for 40.51% in BHB. The purpose of the restructuring is to facilitate the listing of BHB that will enable the company to raise funds for future expansion.

Risks
Economic slowdown may reduce demand for QLs products. However, given that these are largely staple food-based products, we believe that the fall in demand would be minimal as compared to discretionary consumer products. Historically, QLs earnings have proven to be resilient in the face of challenging economic conditions, as shown below. In FY11, global supply issues have thus far supported the robust prices for feed grains, fish products and palm oil. Economic slowdown would negatively impact demand but QLs earnings resilient

A stronger Ringgit would have a slightly negative impact on QL as its MPM business is export-dependent with approximately 60% of sales denominated in foreign currencies (mainly USD). However, QLs ILF business would benefit from a stronger Ringgit as the trading division imports large quantities of livestock feed ingredients that are denominated in USD. Bio-security threat from disease outbreak such as Avian flu would endanger its poultry farming operations and negatively impact demand for its livestock feed ingredients. The group has minimised its direct risk by using the closed housed system on its poultry farms that prevents contact with potentially infected wild birds; and spacing out its farms geographically. Ironically, the last outbreak of avian flu was positive for QL as the lower supply of eggs nationwide drove prices up and reduced competition by forcing smaller players to consolidate. QL is exposed to fluctuation in maize and soybean meal prices. While QL is generally able to pass on costs to its customers, there will be a time lag of 1-2 months and profit margin compression during that time. However, by importing feed ingredients directly, QLs farming segment benefits from lower operating costs. Generally, QLs cost of production per egg is 2-3 sen lower than its competitors.

QLs revenue has increased by a 10-year CAGR (FY01-10) of 12.0%. Topline growth has been supported by steady, sustainable capacity expansion particularly in the ILF and MPM divisions, as well as strong price fundamentals for surimi, fishmeal, CPO, feed commodities and eggs. Net profit has grown by a 10-year historical CAGR (FY01-10) of 20.5% with net profit margin having more than doubled to 7.2% in FY10 from 3.5% in FY01. QLs earnings have grown steadily without a single dip since 1988 thanks to robust demand and strong underlying prices for the groups food supply-related products, as well as its efficient, vertically diversified operations.

We anticipate 3-year forward (FY11-13) earnings growth of 16-33% and EPS CAGR of 17% over the same period. We expect topline to be buoyed by robust demand for QLs poultry, marine and palm oil products in tandem with the rising global food demand, as well as strong prices for food commodities such as livestock grains, surimi and fishmeal due to tightening supply as a result of weather conditions. Earnings momentum will gather speed in FY13 and the groups net profit margin is expected to improve to 10% (from 8% in FY11) as the Indonesian plantation matures and begins to make material earnings contribution and regional expansion (Tay Ninh and Cianjur poultry farms, as well as Surabaya marine plant) begins to bear fruit.

Net gearing level of 0.6x (at end-June 2010) is not cause for concern and does not indicate high operational risk as the bulk of QLs debt consists of short term bankers acceptances for its livestock feed trading activities. Short term debt accounts for 48% of the RM401.4m total borrowings. Excluding short term debt, QLs net gearing level would decrease to 0.3x, well within the internal comfort level of 0.5x. The group has budgeted capex of RM200m per year in FY11 and FY12. As capex is expected to outpace free cash flow generation, QL is carrying a several corporate exercises to raise funds and improve the liquidity of its share. These are: (1) private placement of up to 20.9m shares, or 5.3% of existing share capital, (2) a 1-to-2 share split, and (3) issuance of 41.6m free warrants on a 1-for-20 basis. QL announced on 30 November 2010 that Bursa Malaysia has approved its corporate proposals that are due to be completed by 1QCY11. The private placement would raise c.RM104.1m (based on RM5.00 placement share price), of which QL intends to spend 70% on ILF and POA capex while the remaining 30% would be used for working capital and cost of the corporate exercises. ILF capex includes raising capacity of existing farms, and the construction of poultry farms in Vietnam and Indonesia. As for POA, QL will use the funds for the development of its Indonesian plantation, construction of a CPO mill on the site and to finance its downstream renewable energy projects. The overall impact of the exercise is positive as it will raise funds for QLs expansion and lower net gearing.
Net gearing of 0.6x mainly due to trade finance for ILF trading activities
