Binastra retains Buy, target price raised to RM2.30

Binastra Corporation Bhd secured a RM268m contract from TNJ Development Sdn Bhd, a subsidiary of CPI Land, for the main building works of Tuan Heritag3 (RM670m gross development value). The work scope covers the construction of a 45-storey apartment comprising 1,269 units in Segambut, KL. The contract is slated to commence in Aug 2025, with targeted completion by Dec 2027. We make no changes to our earnings forecast as this contract win falls within our replenishment assumptions. We reiterate our Buy rating and 12-month target price of RM2.30, based on an unchanged target 18x multiple on FY26E EPS. We continue to like Binastra for its strong competitive advantage as a preferred contractor with key clients and superior profit margins. Key downside risks include slower-than-expected order book replenishment, unforeseen delays, and project margin cost pressure. – Phillip Research Sdn Bhd (June 12, 2025) (Calls by analysts tracked by Bloomberg: 6 Buy, 0 Hold, 0 Sell; Consensus target price: RM2.22)

Should You Be Adding JKG Land Berhad (KLSE:JKGLAND) To Your Watchlist Today?

It's common for many investors, especially those who are inexperienced, to buy shares in companies with a good story even if these companies are loss-making. But as Peter Lynch said in One Up On Wall Street, 'Long shots almost never pay off.' While a well funded company may sustain losses for years, it will need to generate a profit eventually, or else investors will move on and the company will wither away. In contrast to all that, many investors prefer to focus on companies like JKG Land Berhad (KLSE:JKGLAND), which has not only revenues, but also profits. Even if this company is fairly valued by the market, investors would agree that generating consistent profits will continue to provide JKG Land Berhad with the means to add long-term value to shareholders.
