- Bumitama Agri (SGX:P8Z)'s FY22 results disappointed. Although earnings going forward will be boosted by inventory drawdowns in 1Q23, higher unit costs and lower ASP could offset this.
- Bumitama Agri’s current valuation of 6x CY23F P/E is fair, within its peers’ range of 6-10x. Nevertheless, dividend yield at a 40% payout should lend support, implying 6.6% FY23F yield.
