Looking forward to decent earnings growth…maintain Outperform MONO29 stands at number four in the digital TV industry with a TV rating at 0.691 or an 8% audience share in April. We believe that its TV business will continue to support strong earnings growth for the remaining three quarters. Maintain Outperform. TV to drive growth MONO29’s channel rating and audience share in April was 0.691 (4+, 24 hours, nationwide) and 8%, respectively, up from 0.537 and 6.7% in Apr‐16. We think MONO29 is already well known among TV watchers and its free movie strategy has yielded a wonderful outcome as the ad rate in 1Q17 grew 89%YoY to Bt26,000/min. The implied Cost‐Per‐Rating‐Point (CPRP) at Bt15,000 is cheaper than Bt20,000 of Workpoint channel. However, the cheaper price came with a higher utilization rate for ad time, which was at 84% in 1Q17 vs. 60% ‐ 70% for the other top six peers. We maintain our full‐year forecast of TV revenue at Bt1,623mn, +60% from last year. The strong TV business will also help lift up the total gross margin from 21% in 16 to 29% since TV costs will go up by a lesser extent than revenue. No more movies from T Moment this year After the unsuccessful ticket sales of T Moment’s first movie “Oversize” (which were around Bt15mn), MONO decided to postpone the second movie until next year. This means that there will be no swing factor for MONO’s bottom line this year. We did some fine‐tuning to our forecast but there is no impact to the bottom line since we have assumed no profit from T Moment’s movies. Expect strong 2Q17E results We preliminarily forecast 2Q17E net profit at Bt89mn, +580%YoY and 285%QoQ. We expect the top line to grow 23%YoY driven by revenue from MONO29 (Bt464mn, +47%YoY) while mobile content should remain very flat. The gross margin is forecasted at 38%, +8% from 2Q16 and 1Q17 on the effect from operating leverage. Maintain Outperform The current stock price implies 17E PER and PEG at 40x and 0.4x, which is undemanding in our view. Our 17E TP still offers upside of around 10%. With a positive earnings outlook for the remaining three quarters, we maintain an Outperform rating.
