DJ MARKET TALK: BofA ML Cuts China High Speed Target To HK$10.60
1040 [Dow Jones] STOCK CALL: Bank of America Merrill Lynch cuts China High Speed's (0658.HK) target to HK$10.60 from HK$13.60, after lowering its 2011 and 2012 earnings estimates by 11.8% and 12.5% respectively.
It reiterates an Underperform rating on the stock. The house reduces its wind gearbox sales forecast by 600 megawatts for both 2011 and 2012 to 9.7 gigawatts and 10.7 gigawatts, respectively, given increased in-house wind-gearbox production and rapid capacity expansion by competitors.
The house says, rival Sinovel's expansion will likely challenge the company as it may not be able to secure sufficient orders to fully utilize its 12GW capacity.
The house reduces the company's wind gearbox gross margin assumption by one percentage point for both 2011 and 2012, to 27% and 26%, respectively, due to falling wind turbine prices, a smaller production scale and higher-than-expected costs.
The stock is down 2.3% at HK$11.96.
