[email protected] Packaging business and modern trade high season to boost 4Q16 BJC’s improving profit from the packaging business and the jump in BIGC’s profit in the Q4 high season should be key catalysts for the 4Q16 earnings. Meanwhile, the strong earnings growth trend should continue this year, as rising farm income, growing sales from BIGC’s new stores and improving profitability both at BJC and BIGC will be profit drivers. BJC’s positioning as ASEAN’s leading integrated retail platform and the stock’s prospective PE/EPS growth at 0.5x in 17E (vs. EPS CAGR of 44% in 17‐18E) look appealing. We maintain our Buy call. 4Q16 net profit to rise 70% YoY We estimate BJC’s 4Q16 net profit of Bt1.18bn (EPS of Bt0.30), up 70% YoY but down 35% QoQ. Excluding Fx gain of Bt1.08bn (after tax) in 3Q16 and Bt30mn extra gains in 4Q15, core net profit would rise 77% YoY and 64% QoQ. Improving profit from the packaging business should continue to be a key profit driver YoY, with the high season of modern trade business, the high backlog of the healthcare and technical business and cost savings from cooperation within the group being additional catalysts. This comes despite slowing consumption during the mourning period, which has hindered the sales growth of consumer‐related businesses (packaging, consumer products and modern trade). BIGC’s changing sales strategy should cause its hypermarket’s same‐store sales to continue declining 23% YoY. However, improving profitability and rising rental income should cause BIGC’s net profit to decline just 12% YoY to Bt1.88bn. BJC’s blended gross profit margin should decline 277 bps YoY due to consolidating BIGC, which has a narrower margin. However, the blended EBITDA margin should rise 293 bps YoY from BIGC’s seasonally‐high other income. BJC’s 2016 full‐year net profit should be Bt3.95bn, up 41% YoY. Strong earnings growth trend to continue this year BJC’s second lot of debentures worth Bt28bn was issued in December at an average interest rate of 3.09%. We expect the low interest rate trend to remain supportive when BJC refinances its remaining Bt39bn loan in 1H17. In 1Q17, its modern trade business should receive some impact from the flooding in the southern provinces. However, we believe that other positive factors, e.g., rising farm income, improving consumption in tandem with the overall economy, new stores and improving profitability both at BJC and BIGC, should continue to be key profit drivers in 17E‐18E. We have fine‐ tuned our forecasts but maintain net profit CAGR of 47% in 17E‐18E.
