Sell Into Strength (TP Bt5.36)

Solid forecasts but share price fully valued

Price Bt5.20

We raise 2014E net profit by 0.8% while cutting the 2015E bottom line by 0.7% as we adjust the share of loss from the JV closer to the company’s guidance. The company will be much more active in launching projects in 2Q14, and this should bode well for presales during the period. One potential upside is that the company might be able to control costs better than we expect. Maintain Sell Into Strength with a new TP of 5.36 as the share is fully valued. Fine-tuning earnings in 2014E-15E We raise 2014E net profit by 0.8% as the forecasted share of loss from the JV is reduced from Bt120m to Bt100m, based on AP’s guidance of Bt80m. On the other hand, the 2015E earnings are reduced by 0.7% as we raise the share of loss from the JV from Bt60m to Bt80m. Much more active in launching projects in 2Q14 AP launched two low-rise projects worth a combined Bt1.7bn in 1Q14. In 2Q14, it plans to launch Bt14.1bn worth of projects, of which Bt7.0bn will be low-rise properties. The high-rise portion of Bt7.05bn was exclusively launched last weekend under the JV with Mitsubishi Estate, and the three condos were quite well received with a combined take-up rate of 29.1%. The projects were officially launched yesterday at Siam Paragon. Potential upside: better-than-expected cost control With tighter control on marketing and promotional expenses, AP aims to control SG&A expenses at Bt4.0bn or 19.0% of its targeted Bt21.0bn transfers. We have SG&A at Bt4.1bn, and the reduction to the company’s goal of Bt4.0bn would lead to a 4.3% upgrade to our 2014E earnings. Sell Into Strength with new TP of Bt5.36 We have a new TP of Bt5.36 (8.0x PER) as a result of the upward revision to the 2014E earnings. Although we are confident in our 2014E transfers (79.5% secured) and earnings, we believe that the share is already fully valued. Financial and Valuation

AP reported Bt260m net profit (Bt0.091 per share) in 1Q14 The profit grew 16.6% YoY on the back of a 23.7% YoY increase in revenue to Bt3.52bn. 1Q14 transfers came in at Bt3.48bn (+23.5% YoY, -58.4% QoQ), of which 54% came from SDH and TH, while 46% came from condos. The 1Q14 bottom line was 4.7% higher than our forecast and 5.2% lower than the consensus. The difference between the actual result and our forecast was brought about by lower-than-expected SG&A to revenue of 21.4% (1Q14E: 22.9%). Figure 2: New CD launches under JV in 2Q14
