Maintain Buy with 16E TP at Bt3.50 We maintain SC’s 2016E TP at Bt3.5 (8.5x PER). We revise up 2015E core profit by 3% and expect its 4Q15E core profit to hit a record high. The positive outlook should continue in 1Q16 when transfer revenue is expected to be boosted by the government’s stimulus package. Moreover, we expect SC’s 2015E DPS at Bt0.16, implying a dividend yield of 5.7%. Hence, we maintain Buy. 2015 presales accounted for 97% of target 4Q15 presales were at Bt4.2bn (+72.4% YoY, +79.2% QoQ). The strong growth was supported by new project launches in 4Q15 worth a total of Bt11bn, consisting of two low‐rise projects (Bt6bn) and two condo projects (Bt4.93bn). However, 2015 presales ended up at Bt12.5bn (+46.3% YoY), which was slightly below the firm’s 2015E target at Bt12.9bn due to slower‐than‐expected sales during 3Q15. SC targets 2016E presales growth of 10‐15% YoY and plans to launch 10 projects with a total value of Bt23bn (condos: low rise = 65:35); meanwhile, its transfer target will increase less than 10% YoY due to the slow economic growth. Revise up 2015E core profit but maintain 2016E We revise up our 2015E core profit forecast by 3% to Bt1.7bn (+13.7% YoY) from the previous forecast. The upward revision owes to its 2015E transfer amount being better than our earlier estimate by 3%. However, we conservatively maintain our 2016E core profit forecast at Bt1.74bn (+2.4% YoY) on the back of transfers of Bt13.7bn (+2.4% YoY), with around 63% of transfers to be derived from low rise (+5% YoY) and the rest from condos (+2% YoY). 4Q15E core profit likely to hit a record high We expect SC’s core profit at Bt630mn (+11.9% YoY, +61.3% QoQ), which will be the best earnings of the year and a record high. Transfers were around Bt4.7bn (+14.5% YoY, +65.1% QoQ), with an increase from both low‐rise and condo projects, specifically Centric Sea Pattaya (Bt2.9bn, 70% sold, 45% transferred), which was a new condo that started transferring in 4Q15.
