0148 GMT - ComfortDelGro could benefit from an improved pricing landscape in Singapore, DBS Group Research analysts write in a note. The industrywide increase in platform fees for ride-hailing firms next year will likely have negligible impact on the company's profits, as that should offset costs from mandatory higher contributions to younger platform workers' state-run pension plan, DBS notes. ComfortDelGro looks well-positioned to grow its bookings and market share, which could drive longer-term profitability growth, DBS adds. The bank retains a buy rating with a target price of S$1.80. Shares are 0.7% higher at S$1.45. (kimberley.kao@wsj.com)
