2016E earnings on an uptrend; Outperform maintained KCE’s 1Q16 earnings hit a new high, reflecting the capacity acceleration of the new plant following growing demand for electronic parts used in the automotive industry. We believe 2016E earnings will continue to grow strongly. While the firm’s bright earnings prospects have already been priced in, there is potential upside gain from the renovation of its old plant and the likelihood of a better‐than‐expected gross profit margin. We thus maintain our Outperform rating as well as the DCF‐based target price of Bt75/share. 1Q16 grew well as expected KCE posted 1Q16 net profit of Bt751mn, up 13%QoQ and 47%YoY. Exclusive of expected extra gain amounting to Bt23mn, KCE’s core profit increased by 59%YoY and 15%QoQ thanks largely to economies of scale at the new plant (Phase I) whose utilization rate accelerated to 85% vs. 74% in 4Q15. This pushed up the firm’s overall gross profit margin to a new high at 34% vs. 33.8% in 4Q15 and 28.9% in 1Q15. Meanwhile, its revenue grew by 22%YoY and 10%QoQ for the quarter following increasing orders placed by clients in the automotive sector. Finally, the SG&A expenses to sales ratio remained flat YoY at 12%. Demand for PCB to drive capacity We expect KCE’s net profit to continue hitting new highs during 2Q‐4Q16 as the firm has managed to establish a presence in the supply chain for electronic parts used in the automotive industry where demand is growing. Hence, the firm’s earnings are expected to increase alongside growing utilization rates in Phase I and II of the new plant, which are expected to reach 100% by 2Q16. Also, Phase III of its new plant will also commence operations in 3Q16 onwards. We preliminarily expect Phase III to report a utilization rate at around 30% in 2016. Therefore, KCE’s net profit is projected to grow strongly by 36%YoY. Upside from the renovation plan We will likely revise up our earnings projections once we gain further information about the utilization rate at the closed plant that will be renovated. According to our preliminary estimate, if the newly‐renovated plant shows the same utilization rate as existing plants, our 2016 target price will be raised by 11%, providing upside to the earnings projections.
