Performance has passed bottom and begins to recover from 3Q17 onward 3Q17 normalized earnings slightly miss estimate AAV’s 3Q17 net profit comes in at Bt261mn (+53% Q-Q, -34% Y-Y). It’s slightly higher than expected thanks to larger-than-expected FX gain of Bt72mn. Excluding such item, normalized earnings are equal to Bt189mn (+35% Q-Q, -47% Y-Y). It’s slightly lower than expected due to belowestimate average airfare of Bt1,460 (-1% Q-Q, -7% Y-Y). The Q-Q jump is made possible by a rise in the number of passengers (+5% Q-Q) and a decrease in funding cost (-13% Q-Q) after the company has cancelled the financial lease of two aircraft before it ends. The Y-Y fall can be blamed on a decline in average airfare after there was pressure from fierce price competition. Moreover, operating cost jumped 11% Y-Y after crude surged, while the government increased excise tax on jet fuel oil used on all domestic flights. About to get into high season in 4Q17-1Q18 AAV’s 9M17 net profit amounts to Bt1bn (-45% Y-Y). It’s sufficient to secure 64% of our full-year estimate. Looking ahead, we expect operating performance outlook to remain upward from 4Q17 to 1Q18 thanks to the tourism industry’s high season. In 4Q17, we expect net profit to hit this year’s peak. Moreover, we believe it will grow both Q-Q and Y-Y. The Y-Y increase is likely to be attributed to the low base last year when there were negative impacts from the government’s crackdown on zero-dollar tours and the mourning in this country. Moreover, domestic tourism sentiment recovers and there is a short-term catalyst from government stimulus, which allows certain consumer spending made during November 11- December 3, 2917 as tax deductible. Given that, we stand by our 2017E net profit at Bt1.6bn (-16% Y-Y) before it turns to grow by 12% Y-Y next year. Maintain BUY rating at 2018 TP of Bt7.3 We have bullish view towards AAV’s operating performance which looks set to improve thanks to robust demand in the tourism industry. Moreover, the company increases its competitiveness through route expansion to cover the CLMV market and India and focuses on its popular domestic routes. This should help ease the fierce price competition. Meanwhile, we believe a rise in crude will have limited impact because AAV has hedged 80% of its one-year jet fuel oil consumption against such risk. AAV currently trade at forward PE of 17x and PBV of 0.9x, lower than its historical average of 21x and 1.3x, respectively. Hence, there is limited downside. In the past one month, the counter decreased by 5%, lagging the most when compared to its airline peers, i.e. BA, THAI, and NOK, all of which were down by just 4% on average. Such scenario is not in line with the company’s profitability, which is the strongest in the airline space. What’s more, operating performance has positive momentum from 4Q17 to next year. Hence, We retain our BUY rating on AAV at our 2018 TP of Bt7.3. AAV has announced interim DPS of Bt0.15, implying dividend yield of 2.4%. It will go XD on November 22. The dividend will be paid on December 7, 2017.
