Strategic expansion into motorcycle financing
On 7 July 2025, OSK announced the acquisition of Wilayah Credit, a motorcycle
financing company, for an effective price of RM3.9m. Wilayah Credit provides
motorcycle financing, with demand driven by the gig economy. This marks OSK’s
second consumer financing product alongside its civil servant financing
business, offering growth and risk diversification. Rather than building from
scratch, OSK gains an established player with dealer networks, operational
expertise, and valuable consumer data to enhance credit assessment, product
tailoring, and risk management. Post-acquisition, OSK can also unlock growth
by leveraging its stronger funding capacity. The effective acquisition price at a
~7.7% premium to net assets is justified by intangible value in customer
relationships and market presence. Maintain BUY with TP of RM2.00 based on a
20% discount to our SOP-derived valuation of RM2.50.
