Earnings enlargement; deleveraging position Despite the few months’ slip in the UHV project’s commercial run to Feb‐16, we came back from the analyst meeting (last Friday) with positive sentiment on the initiative of its “Everest” program as another enhancement, one that will enable it to reach the top quartile with target ROIC at 14% in 2020E (from 8% in 2015E); moreover, given a stronger balance sheet with its gearing to be deleveraging from 2016E onwards, we reaffirm a Buy on IRPC (with the 16E TP of Bt5.5/share, excluding the upside risk from the “Everest” program). “Everest” program – stretched benefits compared to “Delta” program The company introduced the "Everest" program with the EBIT target to be ramped up from US$100mn in 2016E to US$200mn in 2017E, and ending up at US$300mn/year. Initiative planning is currently underway between experts and the IRPC team, and it will take about three months to finalize the work program. Then, the work program will be consecutively implemented with the target functions focusing on operations at 40‐45%, commercial at 15‐20%, procurement at 10‐15%, and corporate at 20‐25%. The "Everest" program will replace the "Delta" program given its stretched benefits in comparison; meanwhile, the “Delta” program is also closer to fully realizing the benefits (with US$100mn of the benefits already accomplished in 9M15E, about 85% of the target of US$118mn in 2015E, with the long‐term benefit target set at US$161mn by 2020E). “Everest” to drive its EBITDA to Bt29bn in 2020E, with 14% ROIC IRPC expects to repeat the success of the "Delta" program with a big return from the "Everest" program (approximately 9x given the expected benefits of US$300mn with a 10% consulting fee netting off from the benefit). The program will help expand its EBITDA to Bt29bn in 2020E (from our EBITDA forecast of Bt16bn in 2015E), with projected 14% ROIC in 2020E (vs. 8% ROIC in 2015E), closing the gap between IRPC and the top quartile. Moreover, this program will be an earnings cushion, particularly with the propylene spread remaining weak to 2017E and polypropylene expansion (300kta) not kicking off until 2H17E. Cost competitiveness leads to survival Despite the concern over the propylene supply surplus particularly in 2015‐16E (mainly from “on‐purpose” projects in China), the cheaper cash cost of propylene supply from FCC splitters (fuel oil to be cracked to propylene) seems to put some producers in a better position to survive. This is the case for IRPC, which is ranked in the first quartile of low cash cost producers, especially after the commencement of its UHV project.
