ISOTeam: Margin gains cushion a revenue miss as drone and cool coatings pipeline stay intact

ISOTeam's FY2026 results came in below our forecasts on revenue and earnings, as the timing of project completions pushed a larger share of R&R, A&A and C&P billings beyond the financial year. Gross margin nonetheless expanded to a multi-year high on dormitory-driven cost savings, and the Board raised the final dividend despite the shortfall. We maintain our HOLD rating with a lower target price of SGD 0.072.

Singapore’s inflation edged higher. Here’s why we remain constructive on Singapore equities.

Headline inflation accelerated to 2.2% year-on-year (YoY) in July 2026, its fastest pace in nearly two years, while MAS Core Inflation stepped up to 2.0% YoY. Both prints came in below consensus, but the pickup was broad-based as the anticipated pass-through of the Middle East conflict's energy shock finally showed up in household electricity bills. For investors, we maintain our constructive view on Singapore equities, with an STI target of 5,987 by end-2028.

PropNex: The CCR-heavy, backloaded launch calendar is still ahead

PropNex reported a steady 1H2026, with revenue broadly flat as resilient agency commissions offset softer project marketing income on a lighter launch calendar. We maintain our BUY rating on PropNex, anchored by five structural drivers: the HDB MOP pipeline, developers’ timely positioning to capture the MOP wave, record land bids, resilient CCR and landed demand and a newly emerging en bloc reform channel.

Gold rallies to around USD 4,400, but the case against it hasn't moved

The rebound is not a reversal of the structural case. It reflects two risk events, followed by a rate repricing on Hormuz reopening hopes that collapsed on 10 August, sending gold prices higher again on renewed safe-haven demand. Meanwhile, China’s physical gold demand is pulling ahead of India’s. Here is what has changed, and why our allocation has not.

Confirmed but contained: Singapore's 12.5% US tariff takes effect, thesis intact

The Section 301 forced-labour tariff flagged in our June note has now been confirmed and took effect today (24 July 2026, SGT 12 pm), lifting Singapore's effective US tariff rate to 12.5%. The constructive investment case for Singapore holds, with the unresolved overcapacity probe remaining the key variable to watch.
