SUMMARY

We initiate coverage on RBF with a SELL recommendation based on a target price of Bt8.70, implying a downside of 13% from the current price. We derive our target price from a 20% premium to the PEG ratio of Thai Consumer Staples due to RBF’s resilient business model.

Investment thesis:

  • Aggressive expansion to capture overseas growth opportunities, but already priced in
  • Strengthened relationship to Japanese partner enables profit boost
  • Improved raw material management enhances cost-efficiency

Risks: Slowdown in consumer spending, increased competition, delays and disruptions in production, failure to introduce innovative products, loss of large customers.
