Looking forward to the first phase of growth The bottom line missed our estimate slightly by Bt1.5mn. Operationally, the CRB power plant is running at high capacity, which creates good prospects for the next projects. However, TPCH is now trading at a very high level due to investor expectations. Our TP is revised to Bt17.25; Sell. Results missed due to underestimated interest expenses TPCH reported net profit of Bt28.5mn vs. our forecast of Bt30mn. Our estimate exceeded the actual result mainly due to underestimating interest expenses by Bt3mn. Overall, there was no major surprise. Six power plants lined up and more aggressive target There are now three power plants under construction. TPCH expects to COD one in 2Q15 and another in 4Q15. The last power plant of this phase will COD in 1Q16. Moreover, TPCH recently signed contracts with TPOLY to construct two power plants that are expected to COD in 2H16. Expects to add another 50MW by 2019 Another five projects with capacity of 10MW each will be added by 2019 and all of them are in the southern provinces. They are still in the early stage of development but we believe that their chances are good. Lower interest rates The 2nd ‐ 4th projects will receive interest rates 25bps less than the first project and the 5th ‐ 7th projects will get a further discount of 25bps. This will have a positive impact to earnings by 1% and WACC by 20bps ‐ 30bps. TP raised by Bt0.55 to Bt17.25 with Sell recommendation The TP revision was made on the adjustment of WACC. However, the new TP is still 24% below the market price, which already reflects the completion of the Pattani project even though it is still in the early stage of development.

Earnings missed by Bt1.5mn, no major surprise Our revenue forecast was 1.3% higher while our GPM was 1.2% lower. The actual gross profit came out Bt1mn higher than our forecast. We underestimated interest expenses by around Bt3mn, which made our earnings forecast Bt1.5mn higher than the actual result. CRB power plant is running at very high capacity factor of 92% The fist power plant (10MW) is running at an average energy output of 6.2 million units per month or around 74.4 million units per year, about 2% below our estimate. However, a capacity factor of 92% is very high and this has set a good standard for the next projects that are lining up to COD over the next two years. Six projects in pipeline and more aggressive target Projects on hand will be handled at a faster pace. Two power plants will start COD in 2015 and three in 2016. Three projects are already under construction while the other two have just signed construction contracts with TPOLY. The last project is Pattani Green, which is still in the early stage of development and should start operation in 2017. The status of projects is as outlined in Figure 1 below.

TPCH is also eyeing to add another five projects with total capacity of 50MW focusing on the southern region. The expansion pace has been faster than what management had previously guided. Now TPCH is aiming for 150MW in three years and 200MW in five years, which is two years earlier. Figure 2: Expansion plan

Lower interest rates for new projects CRB has received an interest rate of MLR – 1.25%. However, new projects will have more favorable loan conditions. The three projects under construction (MWE, MGP, and TSG) will REFER TO DISCLOSURE SECTION AT THE END OF THE NOTES page 2 of 5
have interest rates of MLR – 1.5% while the next three projects (PGP, SGP, and PTG) will get a further discount of 25bps, or at MLR – 1.75%. This positively impacts the bottom line by 1% and we reduce projects’ WACC accordingly by 20bps for MWE, MGP, and TSG and by 30bps for PGP, SGP, and PTG.

New TP at Bt17.25 is still 27% below current market price The current market price is now trading beyond the completion of PTG. We value PTG using a high discount rate at 11.7% (compared to 8.7% – 9% for other projects) to reflect its completion risk as the project still needs EHIA approval and PPA from the regulator. Once there is certainty regarding the permission process, we will raise the 2015E TP further by Bt2 to Bt19.75, which is still 17% below the current market price. The current price is trading at 2015E PER and PEG of 118x and 0.87x, respectively. We expect earnings CAGR of 135% from 2015E – 2018E. Announcements of new projects will serve as a series of short‐term catalysts.
