IBR – FCPT Implementation – Viva TNB! Highlights/ Comment

The government has started the trial run implementation of IBR (Incentive Based Regulation) and FCPT (Fuel Cost Past Through) since 1 Jan 2014 (prior to effective implementation on 1 Jan 2015), which has increased the average tariff by 14.89% to 38.53 sen/kWh.

The new tariff structure is derived after taking into consideration power generation cost (including capacity payment and fuel cost), required 7.5% rate of return for power transmission and distribution, operational cost, depreciation and tax expenses.

The 7.5% rate of return is based on the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) for TNB’s transmission and distribution segments.

While the base tariff of 38.53 sen/kWh will be reviewed every 3 years by Energy Commission under IBR, there is also adjustment to the tariff due to changes in fuel cost under FCPT every 6 months. Domestic natural gas price is expected to be adjusted every 6 months under NEP.

Under the IBR, the recommended capex for power transmission and distribution is RM5-6.5bn per annum, which we expect TNB to spend less than the proposed amount, providing TNB opportunity to gain from higher earnings during the regulated period (incentives). Historically, TNB capex was only RM3-4bn per annum.

TNB is the major beneficiary of the implementations, as IBR ensures 7.5% rate of return (transmission and distribution) and FCPT protects TNB from fuel cost uncertainties. TNB will be more willing to invest in capex to improve system efficiency and service delivery.

On the other hand, power generation segment will go through competitive biddings, which allow the participation of TNB, domestic IPPs and international IPPs, in order to ensure continued low power generation cost (lower capacity payments and increase plant efficiency) or lower rate of return for the power generation industry.

Implementation of FCPT & IBR Government of Malaysia (GoM) has started to trial-run FCPT (Fuel Cost Past Through) and IBR (Incentive Based Regulation) from 1 Jan 2014 for 1 year, before effective implementation on 1 Jan 2015 (for 3 years until 31 Dec 2017). During the trial period, IBR will be reviewed by EC (Energy Commission). The effective average new tariff is 38.53 sen/kWh (See Figure #1) from previous 33.54 sen/kWh (hike of 14.89%),

Figure #1: Average Tariff Requirement for 2014-2017

Energy Commission

Estimated 70.7% domestic users will not be affected by the new proposed tariff structures, while the remaining 29.3% may experience up to 25% increase in total electricity bill (See Figure #2). Commercial and industrial users are expected to experience an average electricity bill increase of 16.85% (ranging 0.9% to 18%), while Special Industrial Tariff (SIT) users will experience an average increase of 19%.

Under IBR, TNB has restructured its accounting and reporting mechanism (See Figure #3), in order to separate its power generation, transmission and distribution segments for transparency purpose. Moving forward, power generation segment’s earnings will be based on competitive open biddings between TNB, domestic and international IPPs (independent power producers), in order to maintain continuous low power generation cost (capacity payments and efficient power generation). TNB’s transmission and distribution segments’ earnings will be regulated through IBR, which is set at 7.5% net margin (based on WACC) for the regulated period of 2014-2017.

Implementation of IBR since 1 Jan 2014 (trial run for 1 year and subsequently 3 year effective period) Under IBR, the average tariff requirement is 38.53 sen/kWh (a hike of 14.89%) Estimated 70.67% of domestic user unaffected, while the remaining 29.3% will experience up to 25% increase in total electricity bill. TNB has restructured its accounting and reporting mechanism to separate power generation, transmission and distribution segments.

Figure #3: TNB’s New Business Structure

Energy Commission

New Tariff Structure The new tariff structure consists of two major components, which are base tariff and FCPT. Base tariff is currently set at 38.53 sen/kWh (14.89% hike) after taking into account of:

1. 1.52% or 0.51 sen/kWh increase for domestic gas price adjustment from RM13.70/MMBtu to RM15.20/MMBtu;

2. 10.17% or 3.41 sen/kWh hike for imported LNG price fixed at RM41.68/MMBtu;

3. 0.51% or 0.17 sen/kWh hike for coal price adjustment from US$85/mt to US$87.5/mt. (Foreign exchange rate of RM3.14/US$)

4. 2.69% or 0.90 sen/kWh increase in base tariff (TNB), which will be regulated through IBR (Incentive Based Regulation) mechanism.

The base tariff is regulated under IBR and will be reviewed by Energy Commission every 3-year, to determine the suitable return (currently 7.5%) for TNB’s transmission and distribution segments. The FCPT will be reviewed every 6-month, to adjust the average tariff due to changes in fuel and purchasing cost (which may vary from the base assumption of fuel cost), as TNB (being a single buyer entity) has to pay the fuel cost incurred by power generation entities (TNB and IPPs).

Figure #4: TNB’s Tariff Component

Energy Commission

Earnings for transmission and distribution segments will be based on IBR, while power generation will be based on competitive bidding system. The current base tariff of 38.53 sen/kWh is arrived after taking into account of current fuel cost and required rate of return for TNB under IBR. Base tariff will be regulated under IBR and reviewed every 3 years, while FCPT component will be reviewed every 6 months. Under IBR, current tariff structure includes base tariff + changes in FCPT.

Under IBR, the average base electricity tariff is arrived at based on the overall revenue requirement for TNB (See Figure #5), after taking into account of the 7.5% required rate of return on Regulated Asset Base (RAB), operational expenditure, depreciation cost and tax expenses as well as efficiency carryover amount (based on the performance of the previous regulatory term).

Figure #5: Calculation of Revenue Requirement

Energy Commission

The breakdown of the revenue requirement includes:

1) Single Buyer Revenue of RM116,273m; 2) Single Buyer Operation Revenue of RM849m; 3) Transmission Revenue of RM16,189m; 4) System Operation Revenue of RM201m; and 5) Distribution Revenue of RM170,054m.

Figure #6: TNB Revenue Requirement for 2014-2017 (RMm)

Energy Commission

However, we wish to highlight that the projected revenue requirement has not taken into account of FCPT (to be reviewed for every 6 months), which will adjust the overall electricity tariff rates due to changes to the fuel cost i.e. imported LNG, domestic gas price, coal price, alternative fuels, fuel mix and exchange rates. The domestic gas price is expected to be revised every 6 months under NEP plan.

Calculation of TNB’s WACC The fair Rate of Return (RoR) is based on the historical track record and current environment of TNB’s average cost of capital (WACC), in order for TNB to provide the regulated service i.e. transmission and distribution of electricity. Based on Energy Commission’s recommendation, the appropriate return (or WACC) is set at 7.5% of the average Regulated Asset Base (RAB) (See Figure #7).

TNB’s revenue requirement is calculated based on: 1) WACC of 7.5%; 2) Opex; 3) Depreciation; 4) Tax; and 5) Efficiency carryover

amount. TNB’s overall revenue requirement during the first IBR regulatory period is RM170.1bn (have not taken into account of possible tariff adjustments due to FCPT). Tariff likely to be adjusted when FCPT is reviewed every 6 months.

Figure #7: Regulatory WACC under IBR 2014-2017 Set at 7.5%

Energy Commission

TNB’s Recommended Capital Expenditure After being scrutinized by Energy Commission, the overall capex for 2014-2017 was cut by 15% for transmission to RM8.5bn and 20% for distribution to RM14.9bn (See Figure #8). The capex will increase RAB continuously. Tracking back TNB’s historical capex (See Figure #9), the annual amount range was RM3-4bn (only transmission and distribution), lower than the recommended range of RM5-6.5bn per annum, suggesting possible significant under-investment in the previous years. Nevertheless, we expect TNB to spend less than the recommended capex and still achieve its set of KPIs. Hence, TNB will be able to enjoy the incentives through capex savings (efficiency gain) during the regulated period 2014-2017.

Figure #8: TNB’s Capital Expenditure for 2014-2015

Energy Commission

Energy Commission has set the WACC to be 7.5% (required rate of return based on RAB), based on TNB’s historical and current cost structure. Overall proposed capex for transmission and distribution was RM8.5bn and RM14.9bn respectively. TNB will be enjoying the IBR incentives, given it had spent significantly lower capex amount historically. The recommended capex was RM5-6.5bn per annum

Figure #9: TNB’s Historical Capital Expenditure

TNB

Impact of IBR to Industry Player TNB is the major beneficiary of IBR implementation, which effectively removes major investment risks on TNB i.e. ensuring strong and stable earnings and cash flow as: 1) FCPT protects TNB from fluctuating and increasing power generation costs; and 2) IBR ensures a fair 7.5% rate of return to TNB’s transmission and distribution segments, while we believe TNB will be able to achieve higher return during the first regulatory period 2014-2017, from potentially spending lower than the recommended capex and opex. Furthermore, TNB will be more willing to invest in transmission and distribution capex, given that it is protected under IBR to recover its investment. Hence, we expect improve in system efficiency and service delivery.

IBR applies only to TNB’s power transmission and distribution segments, while its power generation business will have to undergo competitive bidding system (since Prai Combine-Cycled Gas Power Plant under Track 1 Project in 4Q12) along with IPPs (YTLP, Malakoff, 1MDB and etc) to ensure continued low electricity generation cost i.e. lower rate of return for power generation industry. Furthermore, the competitive bidding system is open to international IPP players such as Marubeni, KEPCO and etc. Hence, we expect the IRR of the industry to fall below 10%, as compared to previous generations of PPAs, which fetch up to 20% IRR. According to The Edge, the latest Track 4 Project: Greenfield Coal Power Plant is competitively bidded, with frontrunner being YTLP and 1MDB. The IRR of the project is believed to be around 8%, suggesting intense pressures among the IPPs to secure new power generation project. Both YTLP and 1MDB are in dire need for the project, as YLTP’s existing PPAs will expire by Sept 2015 while 1MDB need the project to enhance its valuation for potential IPO exercise in 2H14.

Valuation and Recommendation We maintained Overweight on Power Sector as the government continued to push through industry transformation and transparency. Our top pick of the industry is TNB, given that it is the major beneficiary of the industry transformation.

Maintained Buy on TNB with higher target price of RM13.15 (from RM11.90) based on DCFE valuation, after we have rolled-forward our valuation into FY08/15.

Maintained Hold on YTLP with unchanged target price of RM1.85 based on SOP, given its uncertain outlook from expiring domestic PPAs and margin compression of Singapore Seraya Power.

Historical capex for transmission and distribution was RM3-4bn per annum. TNB is the major beneficiary of IBR implementation. IPPs’s projected IRR for new power generation project will be affected by the new open tender system, due to competitive biddings.
