OSIM - Expect higher costs, unexciting outlook. Downgrade to HOLD, TP cut to S$1.94
4Q14 results for OSIM International in line with expectations, supported by TWG. Both sales (S$177m) and earnings (S$27m) were flat y-o-y but improved sequentially (+12%, +67%, respectively) from a disappointing 3Q14. We expect higher costs, unexciting outlook for regional discretionary spending going forward. We trim FY15F earnings by 4% to account for higher costs. Downgrade to HOLD, reduce target price to S$1.94 (Prev S$ 2.59) based on lower 14x FY15F PE.

Singapore's manufacturers had a subdued start to the new year, with the latest purchasing managers' index (PMI) signalling that industrial activity shrank for a second straight month in January. Even though the barometer of manufacturing activity inched upwards to a reading of 49.9, from December's 49.6, this was still under the 50-point threshold. The primary factors behind the stillcontractionary PMI reading were contracting new orders and inventory.
