As agreed, I will try to compile all the emails in one mail for convenience.
For oil and gas counters, given crude oil prices are low, you can use the following P/E ratios as a guide:
P/E ratios indicates Price divided by Earnings.
Thus the lower the P/E ratio, the cheaper the share is. It does not mean cheap is good or bad. But it is a price ratio investor will be willing to pay for the company's earning power. And for oil companies which are supressed by market conditions, the ratios above can be used as a reference when trading the shares.

Good morning,
- SIA (SIA SP) surprised with a sharp decline in pax traffic and the steepest decline in pax load factor in more than three years. We cut our pax traffic estimates from -0.5% to -2.4% for FY17. Consequently, our FY17 net profit forecast is lowered by 22% and we reduce our target price to S$10.00 (from S$10.20).
- SIA’s weak performance also implies downside risk for SATS’ (SATS SP) and SIAEC’s (SIE SP) earnings should Changi traffic weaken. SIA's weaker loads could also lead to lower unit meals for SATS. Similarly, SIAEC's line maintenance revenue could fall if SIA cuts capacity in response to lower loads.
- We maintain SELL on SIAEC (TP: S$3.40). We also suggest investors top-slice their holdings on SATS and buy on weakness, near S$4.10-4.20.
- We continue to value SIA at 0.73x FY17 book value ex-SIAEC, 1SD below mean P/B. Suggested entry level: S$9.00.
