Maintain “Underperform” CBG’s 4Q16 net profit fell short of our projection by 28%. The weak earnings resulted from the booking of a loss from Intercarabao business and larger marketing expenses. We maintain an Underperform rating with the DCF‐ based target price of Bt60/share. However, there is upside to our 2017 earnings from being a sponsor for the Flamingo Football Team in Brazil in a bid to market its energy drinks there; on the contrary, there is downside risk from higher SG&A expenses. We will revise out projections after attending the analyst meeting today. 4Q16 earnings fell short of expectation by 28% due to loss from an affiliate CBG reported a 4Q16 net profit of Bt280mn. The result weakened by 36%QoQ and 2%YoY due to the booking of a larger‐than‐expected loss from its affiliate, i.e., at Bt88mn, and greater SG&A to sales to 24% because of the sponsorship payment of around Bt45mn for Chelsea. The firm’s overall sales expanded by 6%QoQ and 38%YoY due to: i) larger sales volume of energy drinks, canned coffee and drinking water through its cash van sales channel and ii) higher exports to Cambodia. 2016 revenue grew well from both domestic and overseas markets CBG’s 2016 core profit stood at Bt1,516mn, up 18%. This result fell short of our projection by 9% because the gross profit margin (GPM) narrowed to 36% from 37% in 2015 as the company had to outsource the production of bottles. Meanwhile, SG&A to sales also rose to 20% vs. 19% in 2015. Overall revenue increased by 29% thanks to the firm’s successful expansion of its sales channel through its cash vans, resulting in a 12.4% increase in the domestic sales of energy drinks (accounting for 62% of Carabao’s new products). Meanwhile, the sales of products from other producers that were sold at CBG’s cash vans also increased to Bt444mn vs. Bt2mn seen last year. Finally, export sales showed the biggest growth of 48% thanks to its aggressive strategy for CLMV markets and larger orders placed by clients in Afghanistan. There are both upside and downside risks to 2017E earnings The source of upside risks to our 2017E earnings projection is that CBG’s distributors will provide sponsorship for the Flamingo Football Team in Brazil in a bid to market its drinks there. We have yet to incorporate this plan in our projections. On the other hand, the downside risk is that the firm’s SG&A expenses may rise on the back of its aggressive marketing in England. We will fine‐tune our projections after the analyst meeting today.
