01030 Should I Buy

The analyst rating from HSBC Global Research is maintained at "Buy" despite the share placement by SEAZEN, as the broker views this move as a tactical step rather than a sign of liquidity stress. The report highlights SEAZEN's reduced exposure to property development and its diversified financing channels as positive factors. Additionally, HSBC raised its earnings forecasts due to a faster-than-expected contraction in property development business exposure, which supports the positive outlook on SEAZEN. The target price was slightly adjusted down from $3.3 to $3.2, reflecting the strategic intent behind the share placement to demonstrate SEAZEN's ability to access equity capital.
