SET50 Index Rebalance: Four Changes; Cal Comp🚀

By Brian Freitas

Berli Jucker (BJC TB) – Big C on the Turn

By Angus Mackintosh

  • Berli Jucker (BJC TB) has started to see better performance from Big C SSSG from 3Q2024, with strong performance in October and November, with an expected strong finish to FY2024. 
  • The company continues to focus on expanding its fresh food offering, introducing more private labels into its modern retail segment, and using AI to improve logistics performance. 
  • Berli Jucker‘s packaging business is benefitting from raw material lower input costs coupled with active hedging as well as a switch to Aluminium cans from PET. Valuations remain attractive. 

CP AXTRA (CPAXTRA TB) – Governance Concerns over Property Investment

By Angus Mackintosh

  • CP Axtra (CPAXT TB) has seen a heavy impact on its share price following an announcement it would invest THB12-15bn in a mixed-use property project with a related party. 
  • Investing in malls is part of CP Axtra’s business although its major focus is on its retail business which includes wholesale under Makro and its Lotus hypermarket and supermarket businesses.  
  • The sell-off looks overdone but has been clouded by the sale of shares in parent CP ALL by its vice-chairman ahead of the announcement raising further governance concerns.

In today’s briefing:

  • Cp Axtra – CP Day: CPAXT Investing Bt8bn in Happitat Project

Cp Axtra – CP Day: CPAXT Investing Bt8bn in Happitat Project

By Waraporn Wiboonkanarak

  • Neutral view on recent deal: In the short term, it may pose downside risk of 2.8% and 1.1% to the 2025-26E profit forecasts due to an immediate increase in interest expenses from higher debt.
  • However, revenue generation is expected to begin in 2Q26E. Medium-term risks may arise from intensified competition in the same area, but the long-term prospects are positive for CPAXT, as the project could provide stable income if executed as planned.
  • Maintain a Neutral recommendation: The valuation metrics reflect a neutral view on the current fundamentals (the stock price sees 2.4% downside risk from its fair value) and the long- term growth prospects (profit growth expected at a 14% CAGR over the next two years).

  • The SET50 index tracks the performance of the top 50 largest and most liquid names listed on the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET).
  • In this insight, we take a look at our final expected ADDs/DELs for SET 50 during the index rebal event in December 2024.

By Henry Soediarko

  • Delta Electronics Thailand (DELTA TB) is a prominent data center and EV charging solution provider in Thailand.
  • Rich valuation, especially against the parent company, but its PEG ratio says otherwise.
  • It is proven that the share price weakness due to SET suspension is a buying opportunity.

In today’s briefing:

  • SET50 Index Rebalance Preview: 4 Changes Coming Up in December
  • Delta Taiwan Vs. Thailand Monitor: Delta Thai Remains at Extreme Relative Value Even After Sell-Off
  • Energy Absolute: Energy Limited

SET50 Index Rebalance Preview: 4 Changes Coming Up in December

By Brian Freitas

  • With 3 trading days left in the review period, we forecast 4 changes for the Stock Exchange of Thailand SET 50 Index (SET50 INDEX) at the December rebalance.
  • Passive trackers will need to buy between 1.2-3.6 days of ADV on the inclusions and sell between 0.3-3.1 days of ADV on the deletions.
  • The forecast adds have continued to outperform the forecast deletes and there could be more movement in stocks with relatively high ADV to trade.

Delta Taiwan Vs. Thailand Monitor: Delta Thai Remains at Extreme Relative Value Even After Sell-Off

By Vincent Fernando, CFA

  • Delta Thailand Still Grossly Overvalued Even After Recent Correction; Under Market Surveillance Until December 11th
  • Delta Taiwan’s Market Cap Remains at Just 57% of Delta Thailand
  • Further Valuation Correction Likely Between the Two Names; We Believe Delta Taiwan Should Outperform

Energy Absolute: Energy Limited

By Warut Promboon

  • EA’s Q3 results on 14-November was disappointing as expected on the declining EBITDA.
  • Criat’s iRAP Global Plus PD Toolkit (iRap) still indicates the implied international credit rating of “B+” which gives us relative comfort for the credit.
  • EA’s story rests on the usage of its network to extend debt maturity and sell assets, and not so much on cashflow which may be generated in the near term.
