Expect a core profit for 1Q17E Price Performance (%)
Bottom line to turn to profit We forecast MONO’s core profit at Bt11mn, turning from a core loss of Bt80mn in 1Q16 and Bt146mn in 4Q16. MONO29 continues to be a growth driver while the mobile (MVAS) business remains a drag. The first movie from T Moment is also another hindrance due to unsuccessful ticket sales. We maintain our Outperform rating with the 17E TP at Bt3.78, +5.6% upside. A higher‐than‐expected ad rate and utilization rate will be key catalysts for the bottom line this year. Ad rate to jump along with higher TV rating MONO29 continues to gain more audiences as its average TV rating in 1Q17 was 0.667, solid growth of 43%YoY. We expect its ad rate to grow from Bt15,000/min in 1Q16 to Bt25,000/min in 1Q17 while the utilization rate will increase from 90% in 1Q16 to 95% in 1Q17. TV revenue is forecasted to skyrocket by 91%YoY and 160%QoQ to Bt385mn.

A drag from mobile and movies We expect revenue from mobile business to continue to be soft at ‐5%YoY (but increase 6%QoQ) on the declining trend of SMS usage and content downloads. The movie business will be another hindrance due to low ticket sales. Total box office revenue as of 30 March was only Bt10mn, compared to production costs of about Bt30mn. We expect entertainment business (which consists of music and movies) to report a gross loss at Bt10mn vs. Bt1mn in 1Q16. Improving gross margin Even though we expect a worsening gross margin for the entertainment business, the total gross margin is still on the way up. The company is managing its costs and trying to limit the cost growth at less than 5%. We assume total costs will grow 5% mainly from amortization of movies and series on MONO29 and forecast the total gross margin at 41.5% for 1Q17E, improving from 30.7% in 1Q16. Outperform maintained We maintain our Outperform rating with two catalysts. First, the ad rate might beat our forecast since it is still cheaper compared to peers. Second, the success of another two movies from T Moment this year will be an addition to our profit forecast (we currently forecast no profit).
