0607 GMT - Kimly's growth may be driven by new outlets, particularly in the halal segment, RHB Research analyst Alfie Yeo says in a note as he maintains the stock's buy rating. The outlook is robust, with four new eating houses available for tender by Singapore's Housing & Development Board over the next six months, and the HDB's plan to release four more from 2H, he says. Also, consumption of food-and-beverage services has improved markedly postpandemic, Yeo adds. However, RHB lowers its FY 2024-2025 earnings forecasts for Kimly by 7% after a disappointing FY 2023 performance and trims the target price to S$0.38 from S$0.40. Shares were last at S$0.325.
