Beauty products drove up profit RS reported core profit of Bt52mn, turning from a core loss in 2Q16 and increasing 372%QoQ. The result missed our estimate on higher costs and SG&A but came close to the street forecast. H&B business was the main driver for earnings in 2Q17 and this will continue over the next few quarters. We still hold a positive view for RS’s two main businesses (TV and H&B) and maintain our Buy recommendation. Media revenue dropped both YoY and QoQ Media business did poorer than we expected, declining 18%YoY and 2%QoQ to Bt435mn. The drop was because of the weak performance of satellite channels and radio as the industry is going in that direction. CH8 (which is terrestrial TV) actually saw higher ratings in 2Q17, which increased 45%YoY due to the greater popularity of news programs, boxing, and primetime dramas. Reinforcing the beauty H&B business helped RS achieve its strong turnaround this quarter and this should continue to be the case in the future. The business recorded a new high for sales at Bt301mn, +468%YoY and +51%QoQ. The gross margin dropped slightly from 70% in 1Q17 to 68% but this was within management’s guidance. The gross profit from H&B alone improved 410%YoY and 46%QoQ. By extrapolating the record‐high sales in July at Bt150mn, H&B sales for 3Q17E are likely to increase by over 800%YoY and 50%QoQ, driving up the bottom line next quarter. SG&A dropped on lower marketing expenses SG&A came down from Bt274mn to Bt236mn on the lack of high marketing expenses for H&B, which was still 7% above our assumption. However, the management will not spend much on marketing expenses going forward, with spending size to be limited to only Bt15mn per year. Maintain Buy We think the 2Q17 results marked the beginning of a new era for RS. Its business structure will gradually move toward H&B products with support from high ratings channels like CH8. We maintain our forecast and TP while there is still more upside from the H&B business. Buy rating stands.
