2QFY25: Sequential Improvement From Lottery Business

SPTOTO’s 2QFY25 results came in within expectations, reflecting improved STM earnings on higher ticket sales and lower prize payouts.

Despite HR Owen still facing inflationary pressures and higher depreciation, we remain confident on SPTOTO’s progressive earnings recovery especially in 3QFY25 which has seen a prolonged 6/58 jackpot run to record high levels.

Compelling yields of 7-9% will continue to provide moderate capital upside.

Maintain BUY. Target price: RM1.78.
