Lack of positive catalysts; “Underperform” maintained We cut PTTEP’s earnings and TP given the downbeat 2Q15E earnings and no earnings acceleration in 2H15E. Thus, we maintain our “Underperform” rating for PTTEP due to the lack of positive catalysts to drive its share price in the next six months, regardless of its 2015E PBV currently trading at 0.96x in the lower bound zone (‐2SD). Downbeat 2Q15E earnings with slim NP of Bt110mn We expect PTTEP to post poor NP of Bt110mn in 2Q15E (‐99% YoY, ‐99% QoQ), largely blamed on a smaller margin and higher tax expenses, along with forex loss (US$20mn) and oil hedging loss (US$50mn). Meanwhile, we expect its 2Q15E core profit at Bt2.4bn, negatively pressured by 1) lower sales volume to 325 kboe/d (‐1% QoQ), mainly due to the smaller gas volume contribution from Myanmar fields due to planned shutdowns; 2) weakening ASP to US$47.7/boe (‐2% QoQ) with a lower gas price as the main weakness following the lag time effect from the declining oil price; 3) higher unit costs to US$43.3/boe (+8% QoQ), particularly in the case of depreciation expenses and write‐off expenses on dry wells (US$25mn mainly from onshore wells in Myanmar), and 4) higher tax expenses by US$73mn, mainly due to higher deferred tax liability following baht depreciation against the USD. Downward revision on 2015‐16E earnings Given the expected poor 2Q15E earnings and no earnings catalysts in 2H15E, particularly in 4Q15E with a downward adjustment on the gas price to be done on nearly all projects, we cut our 2015‐16E NP by 36% and 16%, respectively, to reflect 1) the cut in 2015‐16E ASP by 6‐7%, mainly from the downward revision on the gas price; and 2) a realized oil hedging loss. We also revise down our 2015E DCF‐based TP to Bt116/share (from Bt122 earlier). Non‐recurring items to be a source of downside risk to its earnings Given the company’s policy to have 70‐80% of liquid volume hedged mostly under “zero cost collar”, this exposure would be a source of downside risk to its earnings, particularly in the case of a reversal of the oil price trend against expectations. Meanwhile, baht depreciation against the USD would also lead to larger tax expenses for the company following higher deferred tax liability.
