OSIM reported a 49% YoY growth in 3Q12 earnings of S$19.6m, on the back of  a  15%  YoY  growth  in  revenue  of  S$142.3m.  This  is  in  line  with  both  the consensus  and  our  expectations  with  revenue  and  earnings  accounting  for 75%  and  74%  of  our  full  year  estimates  respectively.  3Q  operating  cashflow grew  by  173%  YoY  to  S$22m.  The  Company  announced  a  1S''  interim dividend (3Q11: nil),  bringing total payout for the  year to 4S''. Its net cashpile has  snowballed  to  S$67.4m,  which  translates  to  9S''/share.  Management  is excited  over  the  growth  of  its  core  business  (ie  massage  chairs)  in  China where  it  believes  performance  will  fare  even  better  next  year  with  the instalment  of  a  new  political  leadership.  We  re-iterate  our  BUY  call  with  an unchanged  TP  of  S$1.75  pegged  at  15x  prospective  earnings.  OSIM  remains our top pick within the Singapore consumer space.
 
Cashpile  snowballing. We  note  that  the  Group's  cashpile  has  snowballed  to S$185m. The Company has S$118m in convertible bonds which puts net cash at  S$67m  or  9S''/share.  YTD,  the  Company  has  declared  dividends  of  4S'' against  our  full  year  estimate  of  4.2S''.  The  bulk  of  the  cash  has  been earmarked  for  potential  M&As  but  no  announcement  has  been  made  on  this front yet.
 
Bullish  on  China.  We  note  that  management  appeared  excited  over  the growth  of  massage  chairs,  particularly  in  China.  Management  believes prospects  in  the  country  are  bound  to  be  better  next  year  with  a  new  political leadership.  In  China,  the  Group  has  a  presence  in  45  cities  with  247  OSIM outlets  while  the  number  of  RichLife  outlets  have  been  rationalised  to  45 outlets across eight cities.
Results  in-line,  no  changes  to  estimates.  9M12  earnings  have  grown  by  24%  YoY  to 64.3m, accounting for 74% of our full year estimates. Gross and net margins have expanded in-line with our estimates hence we make no changes to our forecast.
