TTW

Buy (TP Bt12.90)

1Q14 beat our forecast

Close Bt9.85

TTW’s strong earnings released in 1Q14 reflect its resilient operation amid the fragile economic conditions domestically. This, together with its attractive dividend yield (~6-7%), prompts us to reiterate a BUY rating with a target price of Bt12.90 (SoTP). Facts & Figures  1Q14 NP beat our forecast and the street’s by 7%: TTW posted a net profit of Bt717mn (EPS: Bt0.18) in 1Q14, decreasing 18%YoY but increasing one-fold QoQ.  1Q14 core earnings improved both YoY and QoQ: Stripping out PTW’s corporate tax refund of Bt325mn booked in 1Q13 and TTW’s overdue tax of Bt261mn in 4Q13, its core earnings surged 22%YoY and 17%QoQ.

 The discrepancy between the actual results and our forecast mainly came from i) a higher gross margin (71.8% vs. our forecast of 70.2%), ii) 10% lower than expected SG&A expenses, iii) 12% higher than expected sharing profit from its associate (CKP).

Reuters / Bloomberg

 YoY improvement on all levels: The increase in NP YoY was attributable to revenue growth with a better margin. Total revenue rose 5.8%YoY due to higher revenue from selling tap water (+5.7%YoY on increasing sales volume and selling prices) and service income (+9.4%YoY along with the increase in sales volume and BLDC’s service fee adjustment). The EBITDA margin improved from 82% to 83% as a result of flat COGS and lower SG&A expenses (mainly on the reduction of CSR expenses). Lastly, the effective tax rate dropped from 19% to 5%.

Foreign limit / actual (%)

 Better margin boosted QoQ performance: The catalysts for the QoQ core earnings improvement were mainly the higher gross margin and lower SG&A expenses.

Ltd.

 2014E NP forecast is maintained: Its 1Q14 core earnings account for 27% of our 2014E earnings forecast. Although we keep our full-year forecast unchanged at this point, the betterthan-expected margin in 1Q14 leaves upside risk for our forecast. Financial and Valuation FY Ended 31 Dec
