Outperform (17E TP Bt9.80) Close Bt9.45

Earnings upgrade/Earnings downgrade/Overview unchanged
On the way to recovery Price Performance (%)
Upgrade to “Outperform” with revised TP of Bt9.80 We decide to upgrade PSL’s TC rate and earnings in 2017E owing to the bright prospects of the dry‐bulk industry. As a result, we upgrade the 2017E TP for PSL to Bt9.80 (vs. Bt6.00 previously), based on P/BV of 1.1x (+0.5SD of historical average P/BV) to reflect the uptrend cycle of PSL’s earnings and the BDI. We thus switch PSL’s rating to Outperform (from Sell). Small net loss in 1Q17 with TC rate of US$8,588 (+79% YoY, +5% QoQ) PSL reported a small net loss of Bt59mn in 1Q17, including FX loss of Bt7mn and extra gains of Bt19mn (gains from the sale of equipment, gains from cancellations of contract for newly‐built ships, and gains from reversal of a doubtful debt provision). Stripping out extra items, PSL delivered a norm. loss of Bt71mn, significantly lower both YoY and QoQ owing mainly to the improvement of the TC rate (per vessel per day) to US$8,588, +79% YoY and +5% QoQ, in line with the BDI expansion (to 925 points, +158% YoY, ‐6% QoQ). Meanwhile, PSL’s OPEX fell to US$4,208 (‐7% YoY, 7% QoQ) with the fleet standing at 36 vessels as of 1Q17.

BDI turning around owing to better demand from China According to PSL, the reason for the strong BDI in 4Q16‐1Q17 was better‐ than‐expected demand in dry‐bulk vessels, especially from China (higher steel exports, higher coal and iron ore imports, etc.). PSL also believes the demand will likely be sustained in 2H17 as China plans to produce more high grade steel (leading to more imports of iron ore and high grade coal). Meanwhile, China’s policy to ban imports of coal from North Korea will lead China to import from much farther away, adding to ton‐ mile demand on coal. The strong demand is likely to offset the negative impact on the supply side from lower scrapping activities. Upgrade to making net profit in 2017E, 2018E earnings maintained We upgrade PSL’s TC rate in 2017E to US$9,000 (from US$7,500 previously). As a result, we now expect PSL’s earnings to turn to net profit of Bt202mn in 2017E (vs. an expected net loss of Bt490mn previously). We decide to maintain our net profit estimate of Bt724mn in 2018E for PSL with a TC rate assumption of US$10,000.
