Calls a "value trap," but keeps at Buy as company remains net cash with no capex requirements, delivers reasonable bottomline. Notes FY08 net profit in line with house's estimate at US$40 million, down 20% on-year on Poibos reneging on agreement, poor Hold at 2.6%. Says concerned on account receivables rising to US$66 million vs US$34 million on-year as junkets delaying payments; aggressively estimating about 25% defaults on excess receivables. But notes, NagaCorp set to benefit as Cambodian government closed key competitor, making company only licensed casino in Phnom Penh. Shares up 1.3% at HK$0.77.
