► Attractive dividend to mitigate pressure from rising bond yield. Although

the 10-year bond yield is likely to increase in FY2018-19E and pressure prices of

19E dividend yields of 5.5%/5.9% vs the average dividend yield of other listed

consensus for 2019E.
► 4QFY17E earnings to surge YoY. We expect 4QFY17E (end-March 2017) core
earnings growth of 30-35% YoY driven by new events such as Thailand LGBT Expo,
Smart Senior Destination Fair, and ASEAN Logistics & Purchasing Expo, and a higher
Analyst number of international concerts such as Super show 7 and Imagine Dragon Evolve
Korakot Sawetkruttamat World Tour. 4QFY17E earnings are likely to be weaker QoQ due to the absence of
[email protected] major events held in 3QFY17, such as Motor Expo and OTOP City.

Valuation
19 February 2018 ► We raise our DDM-based target price to Bt17.2 from Bt15.6 following our FY2017-
Kasikorn Securities Public Company Limited 19E earnings upgrades. Our target price implies a 5.0% dividend yield for FY2018E,
which is in line with the average dividend yield of other property funds and REITs.

Investment highlights
Business outlook
Better economic conditions to support rental rate increase
IMPACT maintained its ARR in FY2014 and reduced it by 3% in FY2015 in an effort to maintain clients
due to weak GDP growth of 0.8% in 2014. As our house economist expects Thailand’s GDP growth to
accelerate to 4.0%/4.2% in 2018/19E from 3.2%/4.0% in 2016/17E, we believe improving economic
conditions will enable IMPACT to negotiate with its clients to raise ARR in FY2018-19E. As a result, we
estimate ARR to increase by 5%/4% in FY2018/19E to Bt65/Bt67.7 per sqm/day. A higher ARR would be
the key earnings growth driver in FY2018-19E. As seen in Fig 2, IMPACT’s ARR jumped significantly in
3QFY17, which corresponded with accelerating GDP growth in 3QFY16-2QFY17. In contrast, during
2QFY15 and 3QFY15 IMPACT’s ARR declined by 11-14% after weak GDP growth in 1QFY14-3QFY14 of
1-2%.

In terms of occupancy rate (OCR), we believe improving economic conditions will spur an increase in
events. For example, some retailers may arrange more trade fairs to boost sales during a period of
improving consumption compared to during weak consumption sentiment. As a result, we expect
IMPACT’s OCR to increase gradually from 51% in FY2017E to 53% in FY2019E.

Earnings revisions
Raising FY2017-19E earnings forecasts
We revise up our FY2017-19E core profit forecasts by 8%/11%/13% to Bt1.23bn/Bt1.34bn/Bt1.44bn to
reflect our increased ARR assumption by 2-5% in FY2017-19E on expected improving economic conditions
in 2018-19E and better-than-expected ARR in 3QFY17. As increasing rental rates would also result in a
higher GPM as IMPACT would generate higher income from the same amount of rental area, we raise
our GPM esimates for FY2017-19E by 80-110 bps to 87.8%/87.9%/88.1%.

Our revisions result in FY2018-19E core earnings growth of 9%/7% from expected core earnings growth
of 24% in FY2017E. We therefore expect IMPACT to pay a dividend of Bt0.81/Bt0.86/Bt0.93 for FY2017-
19E, representing yields of 5.2%/5.5%/5.9% based on the current share price.

Dividend yield
Attractive dividend to mitigate pressure from a rising bond yield
Although the 10-year bond yield is likely to increase in FY2018-19E and pressure prices of fixed income
instruments such as REITs, we expect this could be offset by:

1) an attractive FY2018-19E dividend yield of 5.5%/5.9% vs an average dividend yield of property


funds and REITs listed on the SET of 5%;

2) an expected widening gap (dividend yield gap) between IMPACT’s dividend yield and the
forecasted 10-year bond yield to 2.8%/3.0% in FY2018-19E from 1.7-2.7% in FY2016-17E. This
yield gap is higher level the two-year historical average of 2.5%; and

3) an expected incremental dividend yield of 32 bps/45 bps in FY2018-19E, which is a steeper


increase of the 10-year bond yield by 16-20 bps/year in the same period.

Our assumption of Thailand’s 10-year government bond yield is based on KBANK’s forecasted rise in bond
yield to 2.7% at end-2018 and the Bloomberg consensus forecast for a continued increase to 2.95% at
end-2019.

Short-term earnings outlook
Expect 4QFY17E earnings to surge YoY but weaken QoQ
We expect 4QFY17E core earnings in a range of Bt240mn – Bt250mn, or strong growth of 30-35% YoY
driven by new events such as Thailand LGBT Expo, Smart Senior Destination Fair, and ASEAN Logistics
& Purchasing Expo, and a higher number of international concerts such as Super show 7 and Imagine
Dragon Evolve World Tour. However, 4QFY17E earnings are likely to weaken QoQ due to due to the
absence of big events held in 3QFY17 such as Motor Expo and OTOP City.

Valuation and recommendation
Reiterate Outperform and raise target price to Bt17.2 from Bt15.6
We maintain our Outperform rating on IMPACT and raise our DDM-based target price to Bt17.2 from
Bt15.6 to reflect our raised FY2017-19E core earnings forecasts by 8-13%. Our new target price implies
a FY2018E dividend yield of 5.0%, which is in line with the average dividend yield of other property funds
and REITs listed on the SET.

Our DDM-based target price is based on a discount rate of 8% with a terminal growth rate of 2%. At the
stock’s latest closing price, IMPACT offers an attractive total shareholder return of 15% (capital gain 10%,
dividend yield 5%).
