We have revised down our palm oil price assumptions to RM2,250 for CY2015, RM2,400 for CY2016 and RM2,600 for CY2017. As such, we are cutting GGR's FY15-17 earnings forecasts by 18.7- 57.4%, and its target price to S$0.40 from S$0.42.

We maintain NEUTRAL-its share price has fallen 34% over a 12- month period and have priced in the bulk of the negative news, in our opinion. GGR's P/B valuation is now at a multi-year low but we believe that the share price will be dragged by poor sentiment on the plantation sector.
