Indonesia Strategy Democratic process and stock market ■ The past two decades of democratic process in Indonesia may provide neighbouring

Malaysia with some constructive lessons, notwithstanding the differing circumstances. ■ The first five years after the historic general elections in 1999 saw systemic changes

politically, such as media freedom, direct presidential elections and KPK's formation. ■ Economic reforms and growth took backseats initially though, as reflected in poor

corporate earnings growth and equally anaemic stock market returns. ■ The next five years after that have been most rewarding to the capital market, so far

to date, supported by the passing of investment laws and more economic reforms.

Key difference between Indonesia and Malaysia's political systems Malaysia uses a UK style parliamentary system with a Prime Minister and party coalitions. Indonesia uses a hybrid multi-party presidential system. Indonesia has direct popular elections for President, and the President’s term is fixed, regardless of the breakdown of parties in the legislature, and limited to two terms. Both systems have multi parties with none having a simple majority. Coalitions of parties form the government and also the opposition. Both countries seem to have genuine democratic systems.

Independence from Dutch to the ‘reformasi’ era Indonesia adopted parliamentary democracy after independence from the Netherlands and staged its first fair and free elections in 1955. Economic pressure amid anti-communist hysteria led to the change to presidential system in 1966, with Soeharto succeeding Soekarno as the country’s second President. Parliamentary elections were held every five years from 1973 and Soeharto ruled for 32 years until forced to step down in 1998, and conferred the presidency to his Vice President (VP), BJ Habibie.

Post Soeharto era – more turmoil initially The Habibie administration started off with a key reform: press freedom. New electoral laws were introduced in 1999, which led to the first fair and free parliamentary election since 1955. PDI-Perjuangan, the party of an anti-Soeharto icon, won the most seats with 33% seats in a fragmented parliament. A coalition of parties formed the government consequently, with Gus Dur appointed as the country’s third president. He was ousted in 2001, and the parliament mandated his VP, Megawati, to be the nation's fourth president.

Ushering in a new era, solidifying democratic process During the Megawati era, key reforms included formation of an independent Anti-Corruption Commission (KPK) and independent Judicial Commission; introduction of presidential term limits to two five-year terms; and an amendment from indirect elections via the People's Consultative Assembly (MPR) to direct popular presidential election. Indonesia ended the IMF relief programme in 2003 and embarked on an aggressive privatisation programme. 2004 marked the beginning of direct presidential elections.

Political euphoria proven to be short-lived in the stock market In the past two decades since ‘reformasi’, stock market performance was at its best after the first four years or so of major political change. Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono's 1st term was most rewarding to investors. The election of Jokowi as President in 2014 marked another significant change, which proved to be challenging to the stock market initially. 2019 shall see the parliamentary and presidential elections occurring concurrently. If history is a guide, the market may see more volatility ahead.

Ananda Development Getting back on track ■ Ashton Asoke has been granted the building permit and started transfers on 15 Jun. ■ We assume c.48% of Ashton Asoke will be transferred in 2018F and 52% in 2019F.

Meanwhile, ANAN targets to transfer all units of Ashton Asoke by end-2018. ■ ANAN’s share price is down 18% YTD. We view Ashton Asoke news as positive for

ANAN’s earnings growth outlook and should remove stock overhang. ■ Its backlog as at end-1Q18 secures 109.5% and 56.7% of our revenue and JV

transfer forecasts in FY18-19F, respectively. ■ Upgrade to Add from Hold with a higher TP of THB6.0 on better earnings growth

outlook with 46.7% CAGR and high revenue visibility in FY18-19F.

Ashton Asoke started transfers on 15 Jun 18 The Appeal Committee ordered Bangkok Metropolitan Authority (BMA) to comply with the rule of law on Ashton Asoke, ANAN’s THB6.7bn JV with Mitsui Fudosan. ANAN has received the building permit (Aor 6) for Ashton Asoke from the BMA, and started unit transfers on 15 Jun, ahead of previous expectations of 4Q18. ANAN’s share price is down 17.6% YTD as it had not received the building permit from the BMA. We view the news as positive for its earnings growth outlook and should remove the stock overhang.

Expect 48% of Ashton Asoke to be transferred by end-2018F We raise our FY18-19F share of profit from investments in JVs by 28.3-40.7% to reflect transfers of Ashton Asoke. Most of the transfers are likely to take place in 2H18-2019. We assume c.48% of Ashton Asoke will be transferred in 2018F and 52% in 2019F. Meanwhile, ANAN is targeting to transfer all Ashton Asoke units by end-18. We expect ANAN to deliver core EPS CAGR of 46.7% in FY18-19F, the highest in the sector, driven by an increase in the share of profit from investments in JV projects.

Two court cases on Ashton Asoke are still pending According to ANAN’s recent update, two court cases at the Administrative Court in which two parties claim that BMA and Mass Rapid Transit Authority of Thailand (MRTA) did not follow the proper procedure on the use of MRTA’s land as an entrance/exit for the Ashton Asoke project are still pending. The timeline for the outcome of the two court cases is unknown. We believe if the Administrative Court rules in favour of BMA and MRTA, it will boost customer confidence and speed up unit transfers at Ashton Asoke.

Earnings likely to sequentially increase and peak in 4Q18 We estimate ANAN’s 2Q18 net profit at THB200m, up 38.2% qoq but down 28.4% yoy. The qoq growth is likely to be driven by higher project management revenue and share of profit from investments in JVs, mainly from Ashton Chula-Silom (project value: THB8.7bn) which started transfers in Jun 18. We expect ANAN’s earnings to rise sequentially and peak in 4Q18 as four JV projects with a total value of THB17.3bn will start transfers in 4Q18.

Upgrade to Add as we include Ashton Asoke transfers We raise our FY18-19F core EPS by 12-13.5% to reflect transfers of Ashton Asoke in our JV project transfer assumptions. We upgrade ANAN to Add from Hold in view of better earnings growth prospects and high revenue visibility in FY18-19F. Our TP rises to THB6.0, based on 8.6x FY19F P/E (7.5x previously), -0.5 s.d. from its historical forward mean, due to our earnings revision and a higher P/E multiple. Potential re-rating catalysts are faster-than-expected transfers. Downside risks include the two pending court cases.

Another tough year is on the way

We have revised our forecasts following the release of ABARES 2018/19 winter ■crop forecast (FY19 earnings). ABARES is forecasting another small east coast grain crop.

GNC now looks set to face two consecutive well below average seasons (FY18 ■and FY19). Extremely low carryover grain will also impact FY20.

Consensus earnings and GNC’s share price are yet to fully reflect another ■challenging year. Existing shareholders will need to be patient and ride out the poor seasons. For new investors, we would be buyers of GNC closer to A$7.00.

ABARES issues a below average winter grain crop forecast ABARES initial east coast 2018/19 winter grain crop (wheat, barley, canola, chickpeas) forecast is 14.8mt, down from 14.9mt the pcp and is well down on an average season of about 16.1mt. ABARES said that with soil moisture levels below to very much below average across most cropping regions, sufficient and timely winter rainfall will be critically important for crop development. However the BOM forecasts winter (July to September) rainfall to be below average in most Australian cropping regions. With below average rainfall, along with warm and dry conditions, crop prospects will deteriorate further. We will not know the exact size of the crop until harvesting in November-December and will continue to monitor its outlook as the season progresses.

We revise our forecasts for a lower 2018/19 crop Following a materially weaker than expected 1H18 result and a review of our model, we have reduced our FY18 NPAT by 7.2% to A$58.4m. FY19 now looks to be impacted by a well below average crop, low carry-in grain due to the small crop in FY18 and the adverse take-or-pay rail contracts. This has negative implications for GNC’s Storage & Logistics (S&L) and Marketing business units. We now assume FY19 grain receivals of 5.9mt compared to 7.5mt previously. GNC’s high margin export work will also be impacted. As a result, we have reduced our FY19 EBITDA and NPAT forecasts by 16.3% and 42.2%. The greater revision at the profit level reflects the operating de-leverage caused by the company’s high fixed cost base. While our FY19 EBITDA forecast is slightly higher than FY18 due to the growth projects across Malt and Oils, NPAT is lower as FY18 benefited from an A$19.0m tax benefit. In FY20, we assume an average season (until we know otherwise), although this year will be impacted by below-average carryover grain due to the small crop in FY19. We have also revised our FY20 EBITDA and NPAT forecasts by 9.0% and 19.1%. The next opportunity for GNC to benefit from at least an average season and improved carryover grain isn’t until FY21.

Investment view – Hold and A$7.50 price target Given there is now another challenging year in FY19, we maintain a Hold recommendation on GNC and A$7.50 price target. We have set our price target at a 20% discount to our average season valuation of A$9.37 (was A$9.41). We believe this is appropriate given the uncertainty and timeframe until GNC can benefit from improved operating conditions. We would reduce this discount if seasonal conditions were to improve materially.

Waving goodbye to parts of Asia

IAG has announced the sale of its operations in Thailand, Indonesia and Vietnam. ■ The joint sale price for IAG’s Thailand and Indonesia operations (A$525m) looks a ■

good outcome, in our view.

IAG’s pro-forma CET1 capital level of 1.2x at December 2017 implies, at that date, ■IAG had ~$200m of excess capital above the top of its target capital range, on our estimates.

Our IAG cash EPS forecasts are largely unchanged in FY18 and lowered by ~1% ■in future years.

Maintain Hold call. IAG has a good near-term story, but remains expensive ■trading on ~20x FY19F PE.

What happened IAG has announced the sale of its operations in Thailand, Indonesia and Vietnam. IAG’s sale of its Thailand and Indonesia operations was to Tokio Marine for A$525m, while the Vietnam disposal was a separate transaction. All transactions close in FY19, with IAG to record an after tax profit on sale of at least A$200m, as an unusual item in that year. Based on IAG’s capital level at 31 December 2017, these asset sales add 13bps to IAG’s CET1 capital ratio. On a pro-forma basis, after allowing for the interim dividend, IAG’s CET1 ratio at 31 December 2017 would have been 1.2x versus management’s target range of 0.9-1.1x.

A good exit price for Thailand and Indonesia, buyback imminent The sale price (A$525m) for IAG’s Thailand and Indonesia operations looks a good outcome, in our view. We estimate it equates to a multiple of 51x average operating earnings (pre-development costs) from these businesses over the last three years (FY15-FY17). On capital, IAG’s pro-forma CET1 capital level of 1.2x at December 2017 implies, at that date, IAG has about A$200m of excess capital above the top of its target capital range (0.9x-1.1x), on our estimates. With IAG to see further capital benefits near term from recent quota share arrangements and reversal of NZ tax losses, we remain comfortable we our forecast for a A$300m buyback at the FY18 result.

Minor earnings changes Per guidance, we now treat the disposed of Asian businesses as discontinued operations below the line. We also treat the profit on sale as a non-recurring item. As a result of this our IAG cash EPS forecasts are largely unchanged in FY18, but lowered by ~1% in future years. Our IAG insurance margin forecasts benefit by 30bps-60bps in all years with the disposed of businesses being lower margin. Our valuation rises to A$7.54 on a valuation roll-forward.

Investment view – good near-term story but expensive IAG continues to execute well with its near-term cost-out plans, and potential capital management, creating a nice stock story into FY19/FY20, in our view. However trading on ~20x FY19F PE, we see IAG as being expensive for an insurance company with significant expectation now built into its share price. Hold call maintained.

Otto Energy

Cash flow on sale

We initiate research coverage on OEL with an Add rating and A$0.11 per share ■price target.

SM 71 is on track to contribute eight years of solid cash flow generation for OEL, ■which it will primarily use to reinvest in a portfolio of new prospects.

OEL is working to expand its Houston footprint to maximise access to deal flow on ■new prospects.

A decision on VR232 is expected soon, which OEL may select as its next ■exploration prospect. This is not included in our valuation.

OEL offers a de-risked production profile with further upside from ongoing ■exploration.

Initiate coverage with Add rating We initiate research coverage on Otto Energy (OEL) with an Add recommendation and valuation-derived price target of A$0.11 per share. Our valuation is based on: 1) a DCF on SM 71, 2) a 30% risk-weighted conceptual DCF on Bivouac Peak East, 3) zero value for Bivouac Peak Deep (given success is contingent on BP East), and 4) A 20% risk-weighted in situ resource metric applied to OEL’s Alaskan Big Bear acreage. Key risks to our call include oil price and future exploration results, both of which will remain important catalysts for the stock.

SM 71 cash flow generation Oil production results from SM 71 (4,650 bopd) have given OEL confidence that it can sustain solid cash flow generation for its estimated eight-year project life. We assume a new production well every ~two years at a gross cost of US$7.5m/well to produce forecast gross oil reserves of 11mmbbl. This should also result in little decline over the life of the operation. A DCF model on SM 71 (WACC 10%) generates a valuation on OEL’s equity share of US$84m (or A$0.067ps). This leaves OEL priced on an equivalent of 3.2x FY20 FCF.

Portfolio approach With SM 71 production generating significant free cash flow, we expect OEL will start to step up its level of investment and participation in new exploration plays. We expect this will proceed outside of its current agreement with BYE, which in 2016 formed an agreement to let OEL farm into four exploration plays (selected by OEL) in return for funding.

Bivouac Peak and Alaska potential kickers Bivouac Peak will be the third BYE prospect OEL will participate in, with drilling expected in FY19. If successful, this could conceivably drive an approximate doubling of OEL’s oil production. Meanwhile in 2015 OEL also acquired minority interests in prospective Alaska North Slope acreage, while highly prospective we would expect OEL to likely monetise its interests in a success scenario given the large-scale nature of oil projects in this region of Alaska.

China Gas Plenty of growth potential ahead ■ We expect net profit to grow 48% in FY18F after fine-tuning our earnings forecasts. ■ We expect rural and urban household connections to see a 6% CAGR from FY18F to

FY23F, driven by rapid urbanisation and signing of more rural gas supply contracts. ■ China Gas’s new venture into distributed energy could be an additional new driver. ■ We raise our DCF-based target price due to better long-term growth prospects. ■ We expect strong growth in household connections and gas sales to be triggers.

Maintain Add.

We expect FY18F net profit to grow 48% yoy China Gas will report FY3/18F results on 22 Jun 2018. Last week, it issued a positive profit alert with FY18F net profit expected to rise by over 45%. We raise FY18F net profit forecast by 0.3% as we think gas sales volumes could be slightly higher than our previous expectation. We now expect net profit to grow by 47.6% yoy to HK$6.1bn on the back of a 34% increase in gas sales volume. We expect the gas sales dollar margin to drop by 8.9% to Rmb0.617/cubic metre due to high gas cost in the winter. Rural and urban household connections will continue to grow We think management will provide an update on the five-year rural connection targets due to the government’s push for clean energy in winter space heating and signing of a large number of rural gas supply contracts. We expect China Gas will connect to 12.6m rural households in FY18-23F (vs. our previous forecast of 9.4m). We also project its city gas household connection will grow at 3-5% p.a. in FY18-23F on the back of the rapid urbanisation of small cities and in NE China, which are the company’s key markets. Northeast China could be a new and key driver The China-Russia East Natural Gas Pipeline is scheduled to be completed by end-2019. We expect it to be able to supply 30bcm/yr natural gas to NE China within the first five years. China Gas has 73-75% market share in Heilongjiang and Liaoning. Harbin, the company’s key project there, targets 6bcm/yr gas consumption within the first five years and other cities have similar ambitious plans. We expect China Gas will achieve 16.5bcm gas sales in NE China in FY25F and account for 37% of the group’s total gas sales. Expanding into distributed energy In the last few years, China Gas has been working on gas-fired combined cooling, heating and power (CCHP) projects with initial success. This is an integrated energy solution for industrial users with high energy efficiency and energy savings. We think that in the next few years, China Gas will roll out CCHP ventures in its industrial park projects. China Gas expects CCHP projects to deliver 10-12% IRR when fully ramped up.

Target price raised to HK$38.00/share We raise FY18-20F EPS slightly as we expect better FY18F gas sales volume, which is offset by the drop in gas sales margin. In the longer term, we expect EPS to grow at a 13.8% CAGR in FY21-23F (vs. previous forecast of 9.6%). With the higher long-term earnings growth, our DCF-based target price is raised from HK$28.50 to HK$38.00 (WACC 7.9%), translating into CY18F implied P/E of 25x and CY19F of 20x.

Reiterate Add rating We maintain an Add rating despite the 143% share price increase in the last 12 months. We expect the solid growth in rural and urban connections, strong gas sales growth and the new venture into distributed energy to trigger a further re-rating. Key risks are margin pressure in the winter season and slow payment of subsidies by local governments.

AWC Berhad Chugging along nicely, thanks to IFM segment ■ We recently met up with AWC’s management to obtain updates about the company’s

earnings prospects as well as the status of its proposed acquisition of Trackworks. ■ Contribution from integrated facilities management (IFM) segment should remain

strong, thanks to a higher orderbook and maiden contribution from CARP concession. ■ We expect lower yoy contribution from the environment segment given headwinds in

terms of slower progress billings as well as increased competition in Singapore. ■ AWC still aims to conclude the acquisition of a 60% stake in Trackworks by end-3Q18

as the acquisition would be earnings-accretive and a good fit for its rail division. ■ Maintain Add, with TP of RM1.00 (11.2x CY19F P/E).

Robust IFM segment, thanks to higher orderbook and CARP We gather that AWC expects its IFM segment to continue to perform strongly, given: i) better economies of scale, ii) increase in orderbook, and iii) higher recognition from its Critical Asset Refurbishment Programme (CARP). CARP is a 10-year programme (Jan 2016 to Dec 2025) for the replacement of old mechanical and electrical (M&E) equipment in government buildings at a pre-agreed schedule. The government pays AWC on a monthly basis but AWC will only recognise the payment as earnings when work is done.

Focusing on securing more non-concession IFM jobs Moving forward, AWC plans to secure more private jobs in the IFM segment, especially in the healthcare and commercial segments. AWC believes its experience and strong track-record would make it very competitive in securing more private IFM jobs. Also, margins for private IFM contracts are also generally higher vs. concession projects. For the IFM segment, we estimate that 55% of its existing total orderbook, including the CARP concession (up to Dec 2025), are for government facilities.

Headwinds in the environment division In the environment segment, delays in progress billings led to a weak 9MFY6/18 performance. As AWC's STREAM automated waste collection systems are installed towards the end of a construction project, unforeseen delays by the project's main contractors resulted in slower progress billings. Also, emergence of new players in this segment in Singapore had led to a more competitive environment there. However, AWC remains confident that the superior quality of its products will set it apart from its peers.

Delays to its proposed acquisition of 60% stake in Trackworks AWC recently announced it has extended its target completion date for the acquisition of a 60% stake in Trackworks by three months to 26 Sep 2018. This was in relation to a demand letter for RM19m in damages served by a customer to Trackworks' vendors and international principal. According to AWC, any potential liability from this demand letter would likely be borne solely by the aforementioned principal. In our view, AWC is likely to complete this acquisition given its plans to venture into the rail business. Maintain Add As there were no surprises from our meeting, we make no changes to our earnings estimates. We also retain our Add call, and TP of RM1.00, based on 11.2x CY19F P/E, a small-cap and liquidity discount of 10% to its larger peer UEM Edgenta's 12.4x. We continue to like AWC for its defensive earnings and undemanding valuation of 7.3x CY19F P/E. Potential re-rating catalysts are stronger-than-expected contribution from environment segment and more contract wins in IFM segment. Downside risks: i) cancellation of its facilities management contracts, and ii) delays in progress billing.

China Aviation Oil Streamlining its associate portfolio ■ China Aviation Oil (CAO) announced the intention to dispose of its entire 39% equity

interest in China Aviation Oil Xinyuan Petrochemicals Co Ltd (Xinyuan). ■ Xinyuan is a minor contributor to CAO’s share of associates profit; hence sale will

have negligible impact on CAO’s profitability, in our view. ■ Maintain Add and TP, based on 12.5x CY19F P/E (c.20% discount to peer average).

Disposing of Xinyuan interest via listing-for-sale ● As CAO is a subsidiary of a China state-owned enterprise (SOE), the proposed

disposal will be via a listing-for-sale through the Beijing Equity Exchange. No tentative completion deadline was disclosed.

● Back in FY07, CAO disposed of a 41% stake (out of its total 80% stake then) in Xinyuan to Shenzhen Juzhengyuan Petrochemical Co Ltd (Juzhengyuan), then a 19%-stake owner in Xinyuan, for Rmb20.5m (~S$4.3m). The sale was on a “willing-buyer willing-seller” basis and at the original acquisition price CAO invested in Xinyuan in FY04, despite Xinyuan being a loss-making company.

● Xinyuan is mainly engaged in the storage tank leasing and trade of oil products in Southern China. Its key asset is a storage tank farm located in the city of Maoming, Guangdong Province, China with a total storage capacity of 79,000m3. In FY17, it reported utilisation leasing rate of 99%.

● Besides CAO, other current Xinyuan shareholders are Juzhengyuan with 60% stake, and China National Aviation Fuel Holding Company (CNAF) with a 1% stake.

Minor impact on CAO’s share of associates profit and net cash ● In 1Q18, Xinyuan contributed US$0.2m, or a mere 0.9%, to CAO’s share of associates

profit of US$21.0m. Over FY08-17, Xinyuan has on average accounted for 1.6% of CAO’s share of associates profit, with its highest contribution at US$1.6m in FY14, but only due to reversal of prior year impairment provisions made. Hence, its disposal will have a negligible impact on CAO’s future associate profits, in our view.

● Assuming the sale is performed on a similar basis as in FY07, this could reap CAO Rmb19.3m (~US$3m), still a minor sum given that CAO had a net cash of US$171.5m (19.8UScts/share) as at end-1Q18.

● We believe the proposed sale could be CAO’s way of streamlining its portfolio assets, especially since it has exited the petrochemical trading business.

Focus will still be on SPIA ● Shanghai Pudong International Airport Aviation Fuel Supply Company (SPIA)

continues to be CAO’s associate gem and accounted for 90.1% of its 1Q18 associate earnings.

● The Shanghai Pudong airport started trial runs on its fifth runway at end-17; this could drive FY18F refuelling volumes for SPIA.

● SPIA's 2019F volumes could grow further with the completion of the airport's satellite terminal to boost passenger capacity to 80m.

Poised for M&A opportunities ● CAO highlighted in end-17 that it is seeking synergistic M&A opportunities as it intends

to expand its global jet supply and trading network. We are positive on CAO's expansion beyond being just a China-centric player.

Maintain Add and TP of S$2.03 ● We continue to favour CAO as a proxy for China’s growing outbound travel, as well as

its expanding international footprint and healthy balance sheet. ● Our TP is still based on 12.5x CY19F P/BV, c.20% discount to peer average of 15.8x

to reflect its smaller market cap. ● Potential re-rating catalysts are higher product volumes and associate earnings, and

possibility of M&As to fuel inorganic growth. Downside risks to our call include lower volumes, margins and associate earnings.

Thai Vegetable Oil Strong fundamentals amid uncertainties ■ We believe the increase in import tariff on soybean by China will have a limited impact

on TVO. ■ Amid falling soybean meal prices, TVO’s GPM should remain high due to the

continuing wide spread between soybean meal and soybean prices. ■ We expect a strong 2Q18F core net profit of THB565m (+172% yoy, +1.3% qoq),

thanks to its low soybean cost and increasing ASP. ■ Maintain Add on strong earnings growth outlook and attractive dividend yield (6.6%).

Opportunity in crisis Despite a slump in soybean meal (SBM) and soybean (SB) prices, TVO still enjoys a wide spread between SBM and SB prices. It could also sell the SB purchased from Brazil to Chinese buyers and restock its inventory with lower-cost SB from the US. If this materialises, TVO’s GPM could widen in 3Q18F due to the lower-cost US soybean. Based on SB spot prices, we expect TVO to gain THB70m-140m (3.5-7% upside to our FY18F earnings) from the sale of 1-2 of its shipments from Brazil to Chinese buyers.

Concerns over Chinese tariff hike priced in China announced in Jun that it will impose a 25% import tariff (currently 3%) from 6 Jul on 545 products from the US, including SB. China is the world’s largest importer and US’s largest buyer (about 60% of US soybean exports go to China annually). We believe this is priced in as SB and SBM prices are already down 13.3% and 12.8% QTD, respectively, while the current SB price is now below US farmers’ break-even price.

Soybean demand remains strong The demand for US soybeans remains strong despite China’s threat to raise tariffs. After China cancelled several shipments of US soybean in the last month, those shipments were re-routed to Vietnam. This implies that US soybean exports are not entirely dependent on China. We do not expect a massive decline in US SB exports as it supplies 37% of the global SB trade. Therefore, we expect China will eventually have to buy SB from the US. Note that Brazil soybean crops are available only during Feb-Oct while US soybean normally harvests in Sep-Jan.

Expect strong 2Q18F results We estimate a strong 2Q18 core net profit of THB565m (+172% yoy, +1.3% qoq), driven by a wider GPM. We project moderate sales growth of 3% yoy in 2Q18F, driven by increasing ASP which should more than offset its lower sales volume from longer-than-usual maintenance shutdown. We expect GPM to reach 15.2% in 2Q18F vs. 14.4% in 1Q18 and 8% in 2Q17. This should be supported by its low SB cost and increasing ASP.

Cushioned by attractive dividend yield Despite the potentially strong earnings in 2Q18F and an attractive dividend yield, the share price is down 17% QTD amid concerns over the potential US-China trade war. Given that we expect the net impact from the tariff hike to be small for Thai SB crushers, the downside for TVO’s share price appears to be limited. We expect TVO to announce an interim dividend of THB1.1/share (3.9% dividend yield) in Aug.

Maintain Add We maintain Add and our target price of THB38.75, still based on 16.3x CY19F P/E (+1 s.d. from 5-year mean). Our Add rating is justified by 1) projected EPS growth of 42.5% in FY18F, 2) potentially strong 2Q18F results and 3) its attractive dividend yield of 6.6% in FY18F. Downside risks include 1) a negative spread between SBM and SB prices, and 2) intensified competition in the domestic market.
