[email protected] Switch to Outperform with the 2017E TP at Bt7.8 We switch to an Outperform rating with the 17E TP at Bt7.8. We expect 2Q17E net profit to be maintained QoQ as there are completed condos from both AP and JVs that will continue to be transferred in the period. The near‐term catalyst to support the share price will be the success of the newly‐launched JV condo projects, which are planned for launch in the third week of this month. 1Q17 net profit rose 20.6% YoY but decreased 56.6% QoQ AP posted 1Q17 net profit at Bt549mn (+20.6% YoY, ‐56.6% QoQ), 8% above our estimate, mainly due to lower‐than‐expected SG&A. 1Q17 transfers were in line at Bt4bn (+0.1% YoY, ‐42.8% QoQ). The average GPM was in line at 31.2%. The SG&A expense‐to‐revenue ratio was 21.8% (our estimate was 23.5%). The shared gain from JVs was Bt213mn, better than our estimate at Bt200mn. Expect 2Q17E to be maintained QoQ We expect 2Q17E net profit to be close to 1Q17 net profit as completed condo backlog from both AP worth around Bt2.1bn and JVs worth Bt2.5bn (100% basis), along with low‐rise backlog of Bt3bn, will continue to be transferred in the period. 2Q17 plan to launch big condo projects In 2Q17, AP plans to launch two big JV condo projects worth Bt14bn, with expected take‐up rates at the average of 35% to 40% for the first launch periods, along with two low‐rise projects worth Bt1.65bn. Maintain 2017E net profit 1Q17 net profit was 18% of our 2017E net profit, which we maintain. We expect growth of 12.3% YoY backed by higher transfers of Bt21.8bn (+11.4% YoY) and shared gained from JVs, which we expect to contribute Bt500mn (+35.1% YoY) in 2017E.
