3Q16E to turn to profit We expect ERW to report a net profit of Bt21mn, turning from a loss of Bt20mn last year. RevPAR has continued to increase in every hotel segment and strong growth was visible in budget hotels (Hop Inn). The mourning period has had some impact on revenue from function rooms so there is downside risk to our 16E net profit forecast by Bt20mn to Bt30mn. We expect an insignificant effect to our 17E valuation and therefore our Buy rating stands. RevPAR grew in every segment Group RevPAR increased 2%YoY as the group occupancy rate increased by 10%YoY. Excluding the budget segment, RevPAR grew 11.7% driven by a 9.8% increase in the occupancy rate of non‐budget hotels. Room rates dipped by 1.3% due mainly to a 10% drop in the room rate of economy hotels (Ibis). The budget segment (Hop Inn) was still the strongest segment, as it saw RevPAR growth of 28%YoY despite almost doubling total hotel rooms YoY (867 rooms in 3Q15 vs. 1,558 rooms in 3Q16). The occupancy rate increased from 55% to 74% while the room rate remained quite stable at Bt511/night, ‐1.7%YoY. Impact from the mourning period leads to lower revenue guidance Low sentiment during the mourning period has led to cancellations of function rooms but has not had much impact on hotel rooms so far. The company has estimated a financial impact on total revenue in 4Q16 of around Bt200mn. This means that we should see no growth YoY in the quarter. We think that there will be downside risk to our 16E net profit by around Bt20mn to Bt30mn. It is still too early to assess whether the impact will continue into 1Q17, but the management said that the operation results in 4Q16 will be an important indicator. Expansion continues The first Hop Inn in the Philippines will soft‐launch in late November, which will be the first step for international expansion. ERW targets to open another six Hop Inn in the Philippines by 2020 and the second one will certainly be opened in 4Q17. In Thailand, ERW will open seven Hop Inn next year. These will increase the total rooms of Hop Inn from 1,600 by the end of 2016 to 2,300 by the end of 2017. For the longer term, ERW has plans for two new midscale hotels and two new economy hotels and has already secured the land for these projects. The company is still committed to total investment of Bt10,000mn for its five‐year plan. Still our top pick despite potential earnings cut Even though the impact from the mourning period will lead to an earnings cut in 16E, ERW is still the most interesting stock in the sector due to its solid earnings turnaround (we expect no quarterly loss from this point onward) and expansion story. Note that the impact is considered one‐off and should not significantly decrease the DCF valuation. We maintain our 17E TP at Bt6.20/share for now (40% upside) and reiterate our Buy recommendation.
