UMS Integration Ltd

A stronger earnings upcycle for FY26-28F

 

■ We think UMS could report 1Q26F net profit of c.S$12.2m (+24% yoy, +10% qoq) in the week of 10 May 2026.

■ We believe FY26-28F earnings upcycle will be stronger for UMS as AI demand and two customers would drive its growth this round.

■ Reiterate Add, higher S$2.23 TP driven by our earnings upgrades; valuation basis unchanged at 26x FY27F P/E.

Big jump in Mar 2026 PLF to historical highs

 

■ Reiterate Hold, with a higher TP of S$6.80, still based on CY26F P/BV of 1.35x (+1.5 s.d. from mean since 2001), on the 7% upgrade to FY26F EPS.

■ We raise our FY26F core EPS by 7% on the back of a lower-than-expected Air India loss, as reported by Bloomberg.

■ Our FY26F EBIT forecast of S$2.3bn is unchanged, as we expect higher average pax yields to offset the higher MOPS jet fuel prices for Mar 2026.

United Overseas Bank

Prudent to remain cautious

 

■ We expect UOB to report 1Q26F net profit of S$1.4bn (-8% yoy, -3% qoq), given NIM compression yoy and normalisation of credit costs.

■ We trim our FY26F-27F EPS by 0.1-0.9% as lower share count from UOB’s share buyback programme mitigate earnings pressure.

■ Reiterate Hold, with a lower GGM-based TP of S$38.70.

1Q26 Results Preview: Navigating Treacherous Waters

 

Highlights

• We expect 1Q26 to be characterised by mild NIM compression and growth from wealth management supported by AUM expansion. Review of macroeconomic variable should lead to a top-up of general provisions.

• We expect a net profit of S$2,833m for DBS (-2% yoy, +25% qoq) and S$1,793m for OCBC (-5% yoy, +3% qoq).

• Maintain OVERWEIGHT. BUY DBS (Target: S$67.55) and OCBC (Target: S$25.30). DBS provides an attractive 2026 dividend yield of 5.6%. We also like OCBC (BUY/Target: S$25.30) for its strategic shift to accelerate growth.

Singapore Airlines (SIA SP)

Expecting Strong 4QFY26 Earnings, Followed By A Weak 1QFY27 Due To Fuel Price Hit

 

Highlights

• SIA recorded very strong operating data in Mar 26, thanks to the spillover from Middle Eastern carriers whose operations have been affected by war.

• We raise our 4QFY26 earnings forecast to S$553m (+30% yoy) to reflect the strong Mar 26 operation data and a substantial fuel hedging gain.

• The US-Iran war casts significant uncertainties on SIA’s FY27 earnings, with the sky-rocketed jet fuel prices likely to hit SIA’s earnings in 1QFY27.

• Maintain HOLD on SIA with a lower target price of S$6.64.

What we are watching out for: i) portfolio occupancy rate as it dipped marginally by 20bps q/q, ii) rising utilities cost even though we understand that it will be mostly passed through
