Top Glove Earnings Likely Weaker in 3Q on Delayed Price Hikes -- Market Talk

Dow Jones
03/19

0129 GMT - Top Glove is expected to see its core net profit weaken on-quarter in fiscal 3Q, as average selling price hikes only take effect in April while higher input costs are felt earlier, CIMB Securities analyst Chun Sung Oong says in a note. He notes that the glove maker has begun issuing price increase notices to offset rising synthetic rubber costs and a weaker ringgit, with planned hikes of $7-$9 per 1,000 pieces. Some customers may temporarily switch to cheaper natural latex gloves, he adds. CIMB cuts Top Glove's target price to 0.63 ringgit from 0.68 ringgit, while maintaining a hold rating on the stock, as its current valuation has largely priced in a potential earnings recovery. Shares are 0.9% lower at 0.57 ringgit. (yingxian.wong@wsj.com)
