Llelleythan Tan has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors that balance the competitive pressures with the company’s strong financial position. Despite the anticipated increase in competition from GrabCab entering the street-hail taxi segment, which could slightly impact ComfortDelGro’s taxi utilization rates and segmental margins, the company’s robust earnings growth and attractive dividend yield of 5.8% provide a solid foundation for the Buy recommendation.
Llelleythan Tan acknowledges that while the entry of GrabCab as a new player in the market might create challenges, ComfortDelGro’s established market presence and financial health are expected to mitigate these effects. The company’s ability to maintain a significant market share and its strategic positioning in the transportation sector support the positive outlook, justifying the target price of S$1.76.
In another report released yesterday, DBS also maintained a Buy rating on the stock with a S$1.80 price target.
