2 BUY (Unchanged) TP: Bt (From: Bt ) 28 FEBRUARY 2019 Change in Numbers Upside : 14.1% Airports of Thailand Pcl (AOT TB) Not yet mature Thanachart Securities Despite market concerns over tourist arrivals, we are of the view that the industry in Thailand is not yet mature, having been in a growth cycle for just eight years. We are now more conservative on pax. growth but boost our commercial revenue forecasts. This causes us to cut our earnings by 4-8% in FY19-21F and our TP to Bt77 from Bt80. Reaffirm BUY. Thai tourism isn t yet mature Though the market is worried about the slowdown in tourist arrivals to Thailand, our view is that the Thai tourism industry isn t yet mature as the boom only started in 2010 after the global financial crisis in and the completion of Suvarnabhumi Airport in Thailand s tourist arrival CAGR of 11.6% in (in line with AOT s total passenger CAGR of 11.7%) was almost double the Asian tourist arrival CAGR of 6.4% and its market share stood at 11.2% of the Asian tourist arrivals in 2018 but only 2.6% of the worldwide tourist arrivals. The World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) predicts Asia s long-term tourist arrival growth at 5% a year but delays in AOT s airport expansions force us to assign more conservative passenger growth assumptions of % (from % previously) in FY19-29F before coming down to near Asia s tourist arrival growth trend of 5.5% (from 7.5%) in FY30-35F and 2% from FY36F onward. A commercial revenue base lift However, we revise up our minimum guarantee assumption for the commercial business to increase 10% a year (vs % previously) as we expect the new contracts (scheduled to bid in 3Q19) to be similar to the latest contracts at Don Mueang Airport in This causes our long-term commercial revenue growth to increase to 9% (from 7.5-8% previously). In short term, we expect the growth of 8-9% in FY19-20 and 32% in FY21 due to 1) a 10% a year minimum guaranteed amount hike, 2) Suvarnabhumi Airport s commercial space capacity increasing by 22% in FY21F and 3) a 30% minimum guarantee base rise. As the above assumption changes, we cut our earnings forecast by 4-8% in FY19-21 and TP to Bt77 from Bt80. We reiterate our BUY rating on AOT. Airport City making progress AOT s plan to develop its raw land in Suvarnabhumi Airport is making progress. For 600 rai, AOT plans to sign a contract with the Treasury Department this month for the commercial use of this land while, for 723 rai, it expects the land zoning stipulation to be changed by this July. Subsequently, AOT could invite developers to bid for the projects. If we assume 25-75% of the land is developed, we estimate an additional Bt1.5-4 per share of potential upside to our current TP. Valuation justified in our view PE is the key pushback for AOT in our view. But we believe its high PEs of 28-36x in FY19-21F are justified on its resilient cash flow stream of EBITDA CAGR at 12% in FY19-25F, monopolistic power in a country with strong tourism growth potential, a jump in cash flows (22% EBITDA growth in FY21F), strong balance sheet, and potential upside from the Airport City project.

3 Amata Corporation (AMATA TB) - BUY, Price Bt21.70, TP Bt31.00 Rata Limsuthiwanpoom rata.lim@thanachartsec.co.th Weaker- than- expected 4Q18 AMATA reported 4Q18 net profit of Bt116m, falling 58% y-y and 61% q-q. Excluding one-time late payment on land rental paid to Vietnam government from its subsidiary AMATAV (73%-stake) of Bt162m, asset impairment of Bt39m and FX gain from power equity investments of Bt13m, normalized profit would be Bt304m, falling 15% y-y and 16% q-q. Including 4Q18 number, 2018 normalized profit came lowerthan-expected at 89% of our full-year forecast to Bt1.2bn, falling 17% y-y. Main draggers were 1) higher than expected SG&A expenses on pre-opening expense of Amata City Halong in northern Vietnam and transfer costs for land acquisition in Rayong, Thailand; 2) higher-than- expected tax expense and 3) higherthan-expected minority interests. For industrial estate business, it recognized land transfer revenue of Bt818m rising 45% y-y and 281% q-q. In 4Q18, land pre-sales came at 629 rai (+529% y-y, +898% q- q), making 2018 pre-sales of 848 rai. Given 4Q18 land transfer of just 237 rai (+65% y-y, +508% q-q), backlog as of end-4q18 was Bt3.6bn, which the company expects to transfer 60-70% in The company targets pre-sales (new contract) of 880 rai for Thailand but has not set target for Vietnam. We see some downside risk to our earnings forecast on tax expense. Maintain BUY.

4 Bangkok Dusit Medical (BDMS TB) - BUY, Price Bt23.6, TP Bt31 Siriporn Arunothai siriporn.aru@thanachartsec.co.th Weak 4Q18 earnings growth, below expectation BDMS reported norm. profit of Bt2.1bn, up 2% y-y but down 28% q-q in 4Q18. This was slightly below our earnings forecast but it was in line with the Bloomberg consensus s earnings forecast. Its weaker-than-expected earnings resulted from its higher-than-expected costs. Including extra tax expense of Bt727m from disposal of all equity investment in Ramkhamhaeng Hospital, BDMS reported Bt1.35bn net profit in 4Q18, down 34% y-y and 53% q-q. Including 4Q18 earnings, BDMS posted norm. profit of Bt9.9bn in 2018, up 24% y-y. Including extra gain on sales of Bumrungrad Hospital shares of Bt2.2bn in 2Q17 and extra tax from disposal of equity investment in RamKhamhaeng Hospital of Bt727m in 4Q18, BDMS reported net profit of Bt9.2bn in 2018, down 10% y-y. Note that according to Thai Accounting Standard No.12, the company needs to book deferred tax liabilities for share of profit of the associated company when it plans to divest all of the investment in the foreseeable future. BDMS s weak y-y earnings growth resulted from rising costs from: 1) two new hospitals and Wellness Clinic project (depreciation and medical staff costs), 2) one-time marketing expenses for Happy and Healthy Bike Lane and the winter festival Un Ai Rak Khlai Khwam Nao and 3) maintenance costs to maintain JCI and HA standards. Due to rising costs, BDMS s operating margin declined from 9.2% in 4Q17 and 12.6% in 3Q18 to 5.7% in 4Q18. Revenue grew by 6% y-y but declined by 4% q-q to Bt19bn in 4Q18. Revenue from Thai patients grew by 6% y-y and revenue from international patients grew by 8% y-y, mainly from UAE, Cambodia and Chinese patients. We will fine tune down our numbers to reflect its higher-thanexpected costs. But we maintain BUY due to its strongest chain value and sustainable long-term growth outlook.

5 Ch. Karnchang Pcl (CK TB) - BUY, Price Bt25.50, TP Bt33.00 Saksid Phadthananarak saksid.pha@thanachartsec.co.th 4Q18 results in line CK reported a normalized profit of Bt108m in 4Q18, down 54% y-y and 82% q-q. The results were in line with what we had expected. A fall in earnings year on year was mainly due to higher SG&A expenses while the earnings drop quarter on quarter was because of no dividend income being booked in this quarter lower equity income and higher SG&A expenses. Including a Bt260m gain on sales of investments, CK reported a net profit of Bt368m in 4Q18. Even though we are concerned on CK s current low backlog value which is expected to remain at Bt48bn at end 4Q18 to cause an earning hiccup this year, we expect CK to win some new infrastructure bids to increase its backlog value and turn around its earnings in We thus maintain our BUY rating on CK. CK s revenue grew by 3% y-y in 4Q18 as the Xayaburi project is now close to project completion while its gross margin slightly fell to 8.4% in 4Q18 versus 8.6% in 4Q17. It reported equity income of Bt140m in 4Q18 versus Bt222m in 4Q17 due to lower earnings contribution from CKP. Key risk: We see volatility in building material prices as a major risk. Political instability could result in delays to Thailand s new investment cycle.

Music business revenue (63% of total operating revenues), comprising the sale of physical products, digital music, collection of copyright fees, showbiz, artist management, and free-to-air satellite under the Fan TV channel, increased by 64% y-y. The increase was due to concerts, artist management, and digital music businesses. Merchandise business revenue (37% of total operating revenue) increased 5% y-y due to the higher income from its home shopping business. Note that GRAMMY owns ONE Channel with a 31% stake and GMM Media with a 50% holding (GMM25 Channel, radio, show biz). GRAMMY recorded a net loss-sharing from its associated and joint ventures combined of Bt123m in 4Q18 vs. a loss of Bt109m in 4Q17.

7 Hana Microelectronics (HANA TB) - BUY, Price Bt35.75, TP Bt40 Nuttapop Prasitsuksant, nuttapop.pra@thanachartsec.co.th Better-than-expected 4Q18 s results HANA reported net profit of Bt647m in 4Q18, up 3% y-y but down 28% q-q. Excluding FX loss, we estimate normalized profit at Bt655m this quarter, grew 28% y-y but dropped 21% q-q in like-for-like basis, significantly higher than our and the market s expectations. The beat was from strong US$ sales growth, operating leverage benefits, and good cost control. Total US$ sale revenues was at US$171m in 4Q18, increased 6% y-y but lowered 6% q-q on seasonal impact. For full-year 2018, total US$ revenues of US$689m grew 8% from last year. Strong sales from microelectronics division (+13% y-y) was the key driver, while IC segment sales expanded 5%. Those are more than offset a 5% drop in US business. Gross margin was at 14.6% in 4Q18, dropped from 18.0% in 3Q18 when there were strong boosts from low material costs (bought in strong baht period in 1H18) and strong sale volume. The margin rose slightly from 14.6% in 4Q17 since operating leverage benefit more than offset pressure from strong baht. A good cost control resulted as a drop of total SG&A by 6% y-y and 4% q-q this quarter. SG&A-to-sales ratio therefore lowered to 5.6% in 4Q18 from 6.3% in 4Q17, despite a small increase from 5.4% in 3Q18 which was a very strong sales quarter. HANA announced a final dividend of Bt1.0/share for the 2018 fiscal year, after a Bt1.0/share interim dividend. The indicated XD date is on 14 March and a payment date on 15 May Despite a jump of capex to Bt2.3bn in 2018 (from Bt1.1bn in 2017) for an expansion Ayutthaya s plant capacity and preparation of Lamphun-2 plant to serve growing demands, HANA s balance sheet remains very strong in a net cash status (-0.4x D/E), Bt8bn cash on hand, and no outstanding debts. Full-year 2018 s normalized profit made up 106% of our forecast. We thus see an upside to our numbers. Looking forward, we expect the strong sales growth continues in 2019F which should outpace strong baht impacts. Maintain BUY.

8 Sansiri Public Co Ltd (SIRI TB) - HOLD, Price Bt1.38, TP Bt1.80 Phannarai Tiyapittayarut phannarai.von@thanachartsec.co.th Strong 4Q18 on reversed commission, but weaker-than-expected SIRI reported 4Q18 net profit of Bt1.0bn, surged by 34% y-y and 187% q-q. Though results were strong due to an early adoption of TFRS9 that it reversed commission expenses paid to selling agents, it came in weaker-than-expected. 4Q18 real estate sales increased by 12% y-y and 45% q-q to Bt7.8bn, but real estate gross margin came down to 30.1% in 4Q18 vs 31.9% in 4Q17 and 34.6% in 3Q net profit was Bt2.0bn, at 75% of our full-year forecast. A decline in 2018 net profit by 28% y-y was due to 1) falling real estate sales by 18% y-y to Bt21.6bn on lower condominium sales, 2) falling real estate gross margin from 33.2% in 2017 to 32.1% in 2018, 3) higher SG&A/sales ratio from 19.7% in 2017 to 21.2% in 2018, 4) share of loss from investment in associate, a 22%-owned Standard International LLC (a hotel management company based in the US), of Bt139m rising from Bt17m loss in 2017, 5) interest expense increased by 39% y-y to Bt570m dividend is Bt0.12/share. 2H18 dividend is Bt0.08/share, XD on Mar 14 th with payment date on May 14 th.

The stronger y-y operational results were due to a better margin from its natural rubber and glove products. Total sales were at Bt17.19bn in 4Q18, down 13% y-y. The decrease was due to lower sales of all natural rubber products, except gloves. Revenue from technically specified rubber (TSR) as its core product (66% of total revenue) decreased by 16% y-y, due to lower selling prices. Revenue from gloves (18% of total revenue) increased by 18% y-y. This was due to higher selling prices and volumes. Gross profit margin improved y-y due to a better margin of glove business and a less volatile of natural rubber raw material price. Note that our valuation has yet to incorporate STA s dilution impact at 17% from its new 256m shares from the capital increase via rights offering. Global rubber price remains under pressure. We will revisit our numbers and our recommendation.

10 Sino Thai Eng. & Const. (STEC TB) - BUY, Price Bt22.3, TP Bt29.0 Saksid Phadthananarak saksid.pha@thanachartsec.co.th Stronger-than-expected 4Q18 results STEC reported a normalized profit of Bt428m in 4Q18, up 12% q-q and from a normalized loss of Bt2.3bn in 4Q17. The results were stronger than what we had expected. The strong earnings growth was mainly due to higher revenue recognition from its high backlog value. Including a Bt210m after-tax gain from fair value adjustment of investment properties, it reported a net profit of Bt638m in 4Q18. We expect STEC s strong earnings to continue at least in the next two years driven by its high backlog value which is expected to remain at Bt105bn as of end 4Q18 and improving gross margin due to a higher proportion of the high-margin projects. Its financial status is also solid with a net cash position. We thus maintain a BUY rating on STEC. STEC s revenues grew 55% y-y in 4Q18 as it accelerated the construction of the Orange, Pink and Yellow Line projects. Its gross margin slightly dropped to 7.6% in 4Q18 versus 7.8% in 3Q18 despite pressure from the zero-margin new Parliament Building project. We believe this was due to higher revenue recognition from the high-margin projects. Key risks: Fluctuations in building material prices present a major risk to our earnings projections. Delays of infrastructure projects are another concern.

11 True Corporation Pcl (TRUE TB) - SELL, Price Bt5.40, TP Bt4.40 Nuttapop Prasitsuksant nuttapop.pra@thanachartsec.co.th Weak 4Q18 s results as revenues dropped TRUE reported a net loss of Bt3.0bn in 4Q18, a negative surprise to us and the market. The loss was mainly due to plenty of extraordinary items related to a dispute settlement and tower rental contract with CAT (i.e. asset transfer, upfront fee, and contract amortization). However, our key concern was on a drop of service revenues in all business segments. Mobile: core mobile revenues (voice and data) grew 1% y-y but dropped 5% q-q. A decline from previous quarter was due to a lower postpaid s ARPU to Bt463/sub/month in 4Q18 (vs. Bt468 in 3Q18). This dragged blended ARPU down to Bt204 in 4Q18, from Bt207 in 3Q18, and more than offset an addition of 462k new subs to a total 29.2m subs (+2% q-q) this quarter. Fixed broadband revenues also declines 4% y-y and 5% q-q. The issue was the same as in mobile s in which a drop of ARPU to Bt577/sub/month (from Bt607 in 3Q18) more than offset an addition of 56k new subs this quarter. TrueVisions revenues grew 6% from the same period last year due to an 8% growth of paying subscribers from 3Q17. This was despite the ARPU fell to Bt288/sub/month (vs. Bt308 in 3Q17). However, on quarterly basis, the revenue continues its falling trend, down 10% q-q. A rise in both costs of services and total SG&A, and impact from one-off items, resulted as a significant drop of EBITDA this quarter. We believe this is an extraordinary low level and will have to check with the company on the detailed root causes of these expenses. Despite a weak result, TRUE announced to pay a dividend of Bt0.09/share for the 2018 fiscal year.
