Strong pipeline of projects to lift Gamuda

Gamuda Bhd is poised to exceed its order book target of RM40bil-RM45bil by the end of 2025, driven by a strong pipeline of projects across Malaysia, Australia, and Taiwan.

Assuming a burn rate of RM1bil per month, Gamuda may end up with an order book of RM 59bil by end-2025.

TA Research revised its earnings projections lower following Gamuda’s weaker-than-expected performance.

Robust outlook for Gamuda

Gamuda Bhd is expected to deepen its involvement in the Ulu Padas hydroelectric dam project in Sabah, with further contract wins on the horizon as the state accelerates efforts to secure long-term water and energy security.

Gamuda’s recent results briefing, the company indicated it expects to secure RM4bil worth of water-related infrastructure works linked to the dam.

“The project is among several high-conviction bids collectively worth RM35bil that Gamuda is eyeing within the next two to three quarters.

Gamuda, together with Conlay Construction in a 75:25 joint venture, was previously awarded a RM3bil contract to build the 188MW hydroelectric dam, slated for completion by end-2030.

Renewed confidence in data centre prospects

Maintain BUY call and MYR4.95 RNAV-TP GAM has proposed to dispose 389 acres of land to Pearl Computing (Pearl).

Pearl also awarded MYR1.0b of contract works to GAM.

Our FY7/26E and FY7/27E earnings and MYR4.95 TP are little changed.

This development is significant as it avails MYR16b-MYR18b of future contracts and more importantly, the data centre angle to our investment thesis is intact despite the US’ AI Diffusion Rule, rise of DeepSeek and tariffs.

Investors overlooking property business

Gamuda is acquiring 336 acres of additional land at Gamuda Cove, bringing its total land area there to 846 acres and GDV to RM21bn.

We think Gamuda’s property business is often overlooked, with property presales of 10% CAGR in FY19-24 and FY25F presales above its peers.

Reiterate Add with SOP-derived TP of RM6.00.

To expand Gamuda Cove landbank

Maintain BUY call and MYR4.95 RNAV-TP GAM has proposed to acquire 336 acres of land near Gamuda Cove for MYR248.7m or MYR17 psf.

We maintain our earnings estimates and TP pending completion of the acquisition.

We do not expect this acquisition to impact GAM materially but still like GAM for its E&C business where FYTD contract wins and outstanding orderbook have grown to a record MYR15.5b and MYR37b respectively.

We expect GAM to close FY25E with c.MYR20b of contract wins.
