Growth stage of capacity expansion, with potential upside risk GPSC’s growth stage of capacity expansion (536MW during 2015‐19E) will make NP peak in 2019E; meanwhile, potential capacity additions with Myanmar‐exposure power projects will be upside risk; however, its demanding 16E PBV/ROE of 0.17x (vs. big domestic power operators at the average of 0.11x) causes us to just rate Outperform, and we roll over the 2016E SOTP‐based TP to Bt30/share. Reported 3Q15 NP of Bt566mn with dividend income as the cushion GPSC delivered NP of Bt566mn in 3Q15 (+11% YoY, +19.5% QoQ), with dividend income received from RPCL power plant (amounting Bt288mn) as the earnings cushion in the quarter despite the drop in its electricity sales and steam sales. Its electricity sales and steam sales significantly decreased to Bt2.95bn (‐20% YoY, ‐38% QoQ), and to Bt1.39bn (‐16% YoY, ‐9% QoQ) in 3Q15, respectively, largely blamed on 1) Sriracha power plant, with a scheduled shutdown and lower dispatch from EGAT (reserved shutdown) causing power generation to decrease to 542GWh (‐19% YoY, ‐58% QoQ); and 2) Rayong Central Utility Plant 1‐3 (CUP 1‐3), with its clients’ plant shutdowns as the key reason for lower electricity sales to 496GWh (‐13% YoY, ‐12% QoQ) and steam sales to 1,117k tons (‐10% YoY, ‐11% QoQ). 2015‐16E forecasts maintained; earnings to peak in 2019E The 9M15 core profit and NP represent 90% and 83% of our full‐year forecasts (both at Bt1.9bn), with an expected weakening 4Q15E performance given the lack of dividend income in the quarter and the continuing lower electricity sales and steam sales at its CUP 1‐3 following some cliens’ maintenance shutdowns. In light of the full contribution of the five projects in the pipeline with a combined 536MW equity capacity, we expect its earnings profile to be on an accelerating trend. Net profit is projected to peak at Bt3.5bn in 2019E, implying an 18% CAGR in NP growth during 2015‐19E. Growth story to continue with the risk on the upside Its equity capacity is set to increase by 536MW to 1,851MW in 2019E, representing 41% growth from its five projects in the pipeline. Meanwhile, its long‐term growth potential is on the upside with another 600‐1,000MW in capacity additions to reach its aspiration of 2,451‐2,851MW within 2019E, with its Myanmar‐exposure in terms of three power projects (gas‐fired and coal‐fired) as the significant upside risk (in the process of MOA negotiation with targeted run in 2020‐22E).
