RHB Indonesia - Telekomunikasi Indonesia - Another One For the Road (Telekomunikasi Indonesia, AKR Corpindo) Unknown Selasa, 07 Maret 2017




Good morning,

Telekomunikasi Indonesia (TLKM IJ, BUY, TP: IDR5,200), Another One For the Road

Telkom’s FY16 core EBITDA/core earnings formed 100%/97-98% of our/consensus estimates respectively. Overall group revenue, EBITDA and core earnings sustained YoY double-digit growth of 14%/16%/25%, supported by the continuing robust showing at its mobile arm, Telkomsel.
Our earnings forecast, BUY rating and DCF TP of IDR5,200 are unchanged pending the results call with management later today.
Some key highlights


Marketing cost was up 71% qoq and 37% in FY16 on seasonality, 4G and the IndiHome (triple play) promotions which led to the 3% decline in EBITDA
Alongside higher deprecation from rapid 4G network investments and higher interest expense, core earnings fell 8.2% sequentially.
Telkomsel added a record 10m subs in 4Q16 (48% of FY16 net-adds in 4Q16), which fuelled the strong 6.2% qoq subs growth and 2.4% qoq mobile revenue growth.
YTD, the industry leading mobile revenue growth of 14% was led by i) the 38% growth in mobile data revenue, and ii) 9.1% rise in voice revenue which more than offset the decline in SMS revenue (-3%).
Strong voice revenue growth reflects the large proportion of 2G customers outside of Java (non-smartphone users) and the aggressive promotion to migrate pay as you use (PAYU) customers to voice packages. Consequently, voice RPM rose for the third consecutive quarter to IDR194. Revenue per SMS (RPSMS) was up 2% qoq to IDR77.
Mobile data traffic surged 117% yoy (+30% qoq) in 4Q16, which more than offset the erosion in data yield (-18% qoq to IDR23 per MB), driving the 27% yoy (+6.4% qoq) expansion in mobile data revenue (FY16: +38% yoy).
Indi-Home subs base only saw a slight increase qoq to 1.6m. With the focus on higher quality subs, APRU improved 9% qoq to IDR341k. (Jeffrey Tan)

Results Review:

AKR Corpindo (AKRA IJ, BUY, TP: IDR7,500), FY16 net profit came out in-line with ours (98%) and consensus estimate (96%)
In general, 4Q16 operating performance were worse than to 3Q16 due to lower gross profit and higher other expenses. However, the quarterly results were guided ahead by management team and looks to be priced in, as reflected in ours/consensus estimate.

Key takewayfrom this set of number are QoQ revenue improvement of 18.6% but gross profit saw a QoQ decline of -13.7%, although AKR booked additional IDR100bn of land sales in this quarter versus zero in 3Q16, this suggest AKR's dollar margin of RP/liter saw a QoQ decline. We only have volume data at this juncture and management has yet to send out the supplementary info, as such, we cant derive the actual RP/liter margin for 4Q16, however, FY16 average margin/liter should be around IDR700/liter, in line with management guidance.

Fuel distribution volume of 4Q16 has indeed started to pick up, recording a QoQ increase of 11.3%, with majority of coal miners looking to increase production this year, higher sales volume is possible, mining sector contribute about 30% of its total petroleum distribution volume. AKR is also looking to ramp up ron92 gasoline distribution after forming a joint venture with BP and hoping to increase the land sales of JIIPE with the completion of power plant and water treatment plant by 2Q17.We maintain our BUY recommendation on and SOP based TP of IDR7,500 (20% upside)due to better outlook this year, medium term outlook supported by the structural growth story of retail and JIIPE,AKRA IJ is currently trading at 18.9x FY17F PER on our estimate, in-line with its 5 years historical mean.

For FY17F, we assumed flat margin/liter and 2.3mn KL of total sales versus 2.08mn actual of FY16, 11% volume growth.
Other highlights:

AKR has maintained its petroleum distribution gross margin at above IDR600/litre on the back of a 30% decline of ASP (due to lower average crude oil price of FY16), lower YoY RP/liter margin (about -10.5% decline) was due mainly to 1Q15's high base effect (IDR900/liter)versus 1Q16's IDR600/litre.
Full year petroleum distribution volume saw a 5.8% YoY decline due to lower take up from coal mining sector, improvement was seen in 4Q16.
Retail distribution sales volume surged from 110k KL in 9M16 to 160KL in 12M16, this QoQ improvement is meaningful because AKR is pushing its RON92 gasoline that was introduced earlier last year.
JIIPE land sales is still slow, new acreage of 20 ha sold in FY16, below target of 40-50 ha, AKR has booked about 20 ha so far, backlog of 20ha remained to be booked.
Net gearing remains stable at 0.33x (Norman Choong, CFA)
