HRnetGroup - CGS-CIMB Research 2022-02-07: Hiring Sentiment Continues To Improve

HRnetGroup - Hiring Sentiment Continues To Improve

HRNETGROUP LIMITED (SGX:CHZ)

Latest unemployment figures reflect a broad-based improvement in labour markets for both Singapore and North Asia, which should continue in 2022.
We expect HRnetGroup (SGX:CHZ) to record 2H21F net profit of S$31m (+20% y-o-y) given continued strength in hiring volumes and rising salaries.
HRnetGroup is debt-free with strong net cash of S$315m (~40% of current market cap) at end-1H21, which could support M&A activity.
Reiterate ADD call on HRnetGroup with a target price of S$1.15. We think HRnetGroup is well positioned for further hiring momentum in FY22F as labour markets continue improving.
