Maintain Sell with the new 17E TP at Bt9 We maintain sell on LPN with the new 17E TP at Bt9 after we revised down the 2017E net profit by 11.6%. Although the new 2017E launches will drive 2017E presales, inventory and condos to be finished in 2017E worth Bt14bn, which are in the low‐end segment, will remain a burden as its target group is still experiencing a financial source problem. LPN’s near‐term catalyst to support its share price is the 2H16 dividend yield of 4.8%. 4Q16 earnings declined both YoY and QoQ LPN reported 4Q16 net profit at Bt281mn (‐2.3% YoY, ‐9.1% QoQ), 36% below our forecast, mainly due to lower‐than‐expected transfers. 4Q16 transfers were Bt2.35bn (‐22.7% YoY, ‐3.4% QoQ), 23% lower than our estimate. The average GPM was in line at 30.9% and SG&A to revenue was 17.3%, higher than our estimate on the lower transfer base. 2016 net profit declined 9.8% YoY LPN's 2016 net earnings amounted to Bt2.18bn (‐9.8% YoY), 6.7% below our estimate due to lower‐than‐expected transfers. 2016 transfers were Bt13.86bn (‐13.3% YoY), 4.9% below our estimate. The average GPM was in line at 31.3%. The SG&A expense‐to‐revenue ratio was 12.8%, higher than our estimate of 12.2%. Hence, 2016 net earnings were lower than expected. Announced 2H16 DPS at Bt0.6, implying a yield of 4.8% LPN announced its 2H16 DPS at Bt0.60, implying a yield of 4.8%. It will go XD on February 21 and the dividend will be paid on April 11, 2017. Revise down 2017E net profit by 11.6% but maintain 2018E We revised down our 2017E net profit by 11.6%. The downward revision was mainly from lower transfers in 2017E by 13.4% to Bt10.87bn, in line with LPN’s transfer target, along with the presales and transfer trends of existing projects in 2016, which were slower than our previous expectation. Meanwhile, we maintain our 2018E net profit because LPN will have 7‐8 condo launches in 2017E worth Bt13bn, which will be realized in late 2018E and likely support our 2018E transfer forecast. Third project sold 25% of project units LPN launched a third project, namely, Lumpini Ville Ratburana Riverview 2, on Feb 6, 2017. It launched 330 units (50% of total units) and sold 170 units or 25% of the total units. Meanwhile, Lumpini Phetchaburi‐ Makkasan is now 70% sold after including foreign buyers’ value.
