Maintain Buy on undemanding price Since the capital increase through PP was approved in June, there still have been no developments for SPCG. There is no excitement regarding either the solar power plant’s performance or the solar rooftop business as seen in the 2Q17 results, which grew 1.3%YoY on deleveraging. We roll over our TP to 18E at Bt25.60 and maintain our Buy recommendation. Net profit edged up on lower interest expenses SPCG reported net profit of Bt578mn, +1.3%YoY. Its revenue increased slightly by 3.5%YoY as a result of high revenue from installation of solar rooftops at Bt189mn, +54%YoY. Sales of electricity declined by 2% due to lower prices and volume. Electricity output from solar power plants dropped by 1.6%, affected by 0.8% degradation and unfavorable weather conditions. The selling price also decreased by 0.5%YoY from lower Ft. However, interest expenses helped support the bottom line as they decreased from Bt186mn to Bt158mn on deleveraging. Further delay in COD of Totori project The Totori project in Japan is facing unfavorable weather, causing the project to be delayed further. The project is now expected to COD in 2Q18 instead of 1Q18. Shared profit from the investment will be postponed by another quarter but this should be very insignificant. We forecast profit sharing to SPCG at around Bt55mn per year. Waiting for new projects Shareholders already approved a capital increase through private placement in the EGM in June. This will allow SPCG to raise around Bt1,800mn, which should be used for new investment in the pipeline. The size will be quite meaningful at more than 100MW, according to the management in the 1Q17 Opportunity Day. This will help SPCG achieve its roadmap of 500MW in three years. New and lower TP at Bt25.60 We roll over our TP to 18E, which is lower at Bt25.60 due to the effect from fewer years of cash flow being discounted. However, there is still 23% upside together with a 5% dividend yield, highest among renewable energy peers. The stock is now trading at very low 17E PER at 7.5x. We hence maintain our Buy recommendation.
