Bright earnings growth to continue Price Performance (%)
Maintain BUY with revised SOTP‐based target price of Bt29 We upgrade BA’s earnings estimates in 2016‐17E after better‐than‐ expected 1Q16 earnings results, which should continue for the rest of this year. As a result, we upgrade BA’s SOTP‐based TP to Bt29, vs. Bt26.50 previously. BUY maintained. Passenger volume still grew in Apr‐16 BA revealed 1mn advance ticket bookings currently, +17% YoY, of which 21% are scheduled to travel in May, 56% in Jun‐Sep 16, and the rest will travel in 4Q16. For April only, passenger volume still grew by 10% YoY despite entering the low season. As such, BA expects 2Q16E earnings to continue growing YoY (BA reported net profit of only Bt91mn in 2Q15).

Introduced new route to Vietnam in May‐16 In 1Q16, 47% of BA’s passenger revenue (Bt6.1bn, 84% of total revenue) came from the Samui Island route, 25% from domestic destinations, 22% from Indochina, and 5% from other international destinations. The source of growth came mainly from the Samui route (+18% YoY) and the new route – BKK/Phnom Penh (Cambodia) – which has increased flight frequency from 5 to 6 flights daily since Jan‐16. BA will introduce a new route (sole operator) to Danang (Vietnam) in May‐16, and expects to add a codeshare partner from this destination in the future. In 1Q16, Austrian Airlines became BA’s twenty‐first codeshare partner, and it expects this to increase to 24‐25 codeshare partners by 2016E. 45‐57% of fuel usage in 2016E is hedged We believe the fluctuation of global oil prices is less likely to hurt BA’s performance as 45‐57% of the company’s fuel usage is currently hedged with an average cost of around US$53/barrel (vs. average cost of around US$100/barrel in 2015). Earnings revised up by 8% and 6% in 2016‐17E We revised up BA’s net profit estimates in 2016‐17E by 8% and 6% to Bt2.2bn and Bt2.4bn, respectively, owing mainly to the upward revision of its cabin factor by 2ppt in 2016E (to 70%, in line with the company’s guidance) and 1ppt in 2017E (to 69%). We keep our conservative view on flat ticket fares in 2016E, vs. +2% in 1Q16 (high season).
