COE: 11.0%, growth rate: 5.0%). Still a BUY.

Media Highlights

CK Power pulls plug on IPO over volatility.

CK Power (CKP), a power development arm of the construction firm Ch. Karnchang Plc, has emerged as the first company

this year to put off plans for an initial public offering after a wild swing in the Thai stock market. CKP has decided to postpone

indefinitely its planned IPO, previously set for this month. Had it proceeded with the plan, CKP would have been the first Thai

holding company whose main business is abroad to list on the Stock Exchange of Thailand. Asia Plus Securities serves as

one of CKP's underwriters. Others are Bualuang Securities, KT Zmico Securities and SCB Securities. The Thai stock market

has plunged by 12% from the year's peak of 1,643.43 at the market close on May 21 on signs that the US Federal Reserve is

prepared to scale down its stimulus scheme.(Bangkok Post)

AoT pushes for passenger fee hike.

Airports of Thailand (AoT) urged authorities to allow it to hike the passenger service charge (PSC) at airports for the first time

in six years. The state-owned firm, which runs the kingdom's six key airports including Suvarnabhumi, wants the long sought-

after rise to be 800 baht, up from 700, for international passengers, and 150 baht, up from 100, for domestic travellers. The

fee hike would take effect at the end of this year. If approved by the Department of Civil Aviation (DCA), it would result in 2

billion baht in incremental revenue for AoT, which already booked the increase in its 2013 revenue projection. PSC accounts

for 45% of AoT's revenue, or roughly 13 billion baht a year.(Bangkok Post)

Telenor to launch Myanmar 3G.

Telenor Group, the major shareholder of Thailand's Total Access Communication (DTAC), plans to introduce commercial third-generation (3G) mobile service in Myanmar next year after winning a licence in a highly competitive tender. The Norwegian firm aims to complete the nationwide roll-out of its 2G and 3G network using high-speed packet access (HSPA) technology within five years under an undisclosed investment. Telenor will also install 4G-ready base stations using long-term evolution technology for Myanmar to match the sophistication of leading networks worldwide, said Glenn Mandelid, communications director of Telenor Asia.(Bangkok Post) Rice back at Bt15,000.

The Yingluck government has given in to pressure from farmers by maintained the Bt15,000 per tonne pledging price for the second rice crop in the 2012/13 harvest year. But it has left the price for the next harvest year open for a cut. After the National Rice Policy Committee meeting yesterday, Deputy Premier and Finance Minister Kittiratt Na-Ranong said the decision was based on the finance available, as well as the well-supported stockpile release plan by new Commerce Minister Niwatthamrong Boonsongpaisal. But the price for next year would be reset, taking the global market and forex rate moves into consideration. The price would be announced some time ahead of the next harvest year, so farmers can make a decision if they want to grow more rice or switch to other crops that could generate more cash. (The Nation) Digital TV licences.

Around 32 broadcasters, telecom operators, and content providers yesterday took part in the National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission (NBTC)'s pre-mock up auction of 24 licences to commercially operate digital terrestrial TV broadcasting service. Among them are Nation Broadcasting Corp, MCOT, InTouch, TrueVisions, Media Studio, Channel 7, GMM Grammy, Mono Production, RS, Spring News, Voice TV, Thairath TV, Post Publishing. The other is Bangkok Media Broadcasting, which is mainly owned by Prasert Prasathongosot, founder and CEO of Bangkok Airways, which is interested to bid for a HD licence. The committee is expected to open for prospect bidders to buy the bid document in August and to call the bid in September or October. Of total 24 licences, seven are High Definition variety channel licences, seven for Standard Definition (SD) variety channel licences, seven SD news channel licences, and three SD kid channel licences.(The Nation) BOT to issue 5 new banking licenses.

Foreign banks are allowed a bigger presence in Thailand, with the invitation to set up subsidiaries that can open up to 20

branches and 20 off-premise ATMs. Bank of Thailand on Friday issued the announcement, inviting interested foreign banks to

establish subsidiaries here. Licenses will be awarded to five banks. Applications are welcomed from July 2 until the end of this

year. The application review process is expected to complete by the middle of 2014. The newly incorporated subsidiaries

must have at least Bt20 billion minimum paid-up capital. (The Nation)

Economic Highlights

Construction spending in the US climbed in May, led by the strongest expenditures on residential projects in more than four years. Outlays grew by 0.5% to an USD874.9bn annualized rate, the Commerce Department reported yesterday. Spending on housing climbed to the highest level since October 2008. A pickup in residential real estate is helping to offset weakness in non-residential construction, giving economic growth a lift. (Bloomberg)

American manufacturing rebounded in June as orders picked up, while factory reports from Japan to the UK pointed to stabilization in the global economy. The Institute for Supply Management’s US manufacturing index climbed to a three-month high of 50.9 from 49 in May, the Tempe, Arizona-based group said yesterday. A reading of 50 is the dividing line between expansion and contraction. The production gauge rose to 53.4 last month from 48.6 in May. A measure of new orders increased to 51.9 from 48.8, and the gauge of export demand advanced to 54.5 from 51 the month prior. (Bloomberg)

Thailand: Lowest inflation in June clouds consumer confidence.

Inflation in June crawled at its slowest pace in almost four years, prompting concern for spending confidence among

consumers, although the moderate price rises here were within the scope of other countries in the region. The ministry

reported that the consumer price index in June grew 2.25% y-o-y, the lowest reading in 43 months since November 2009, due

mainly to the mild increase in foods and goods prices. The CPI was up 0.15% from the previous month. YTD, inflation rose

2.7%, below the ministry's target range of 2.8-3.4% this year. (Bloomberg)

Indonesia: May inflation rate eases to 5.47% y-o-y.

Indonesia's annual inflation rate index unexpectedly eased in May, in line with soft prices for food and jewellery, but worries

about inflationary pressure remained ahead of a possible government decision to cut fuel subsidies to narrow a budget deficit.

Headline inflation was 5.47%, versus April's 5.57%. On a monthly basis, May headline inflation fell 0.03%, compared with

April's 0.1% contraction. Bank Indonesia expects inflation to be around 3.5-5.5% this year, but has said it could rise as high as

7.76% if the government does raise subsidized fuel prices.(Reuters)

China: Manufacturing gauges fall as slowdown persists.

Two gauges of China’s manufacturing fell in June, underscoring a sustained slowdown in the nation’s economy as policy

makers seek to rein in financial speculation and real-estate prices. An official Purchasing Managers’ Index dropped to 50.1,

the lowest level in four months, from 50.8, the National Bureau of Statistics and China Federation of Logistics and Purchasing

said yesterday. A private PMI from HSBC Holdings and Markit Economics was 48.2, the weakest since September.

(Bloomberg)

Japan: Manufacturers optimistic for first time in two years.

Big Japanese manufacturers turned optimistic for the first time since September 2011, indicating confidence in Prime Minister

Shinzo Abe’s reflationary policies even after stock market volatility. The quarterly Tankan index for large manufacturers rose to

plus four in June from minus eight in March, the Bank of Japan said yesterday. A positive figure means optimists outnumber

pessimists. Large companies from all industries plan to increase capital spending 5.5% in this fiscal year as the government

looks to promote business investment.(Bloomberg)

EU: Manufacturing output contracts less than estimated.

Euro-area manufacturing output contracted less than initially estimated in June, adding to signs the currency bloc’s economy is

beginning to emerge from a record-long recession. A gauge of manufacturing in the 17-nation euro area increased to 48.8 last

month from 48.3 in May, Markit Economics. The gauge has been below 50, indicating contraction, since July 2011. The PMI

data followed an encouraging euro-zone economic confidence report for June that recorded the biggest jump since July

2010.(Bloomberg)

US: Construction spending rises, led by residential projects.

US: Manufacturing rebounds as orders pick up.

KBANK’s 2Q13 results are likely to show steady growth in loans, non-interest/net fee income and NIM, while its provisions are likely to normalize from 1Q13’s one-off counter-cyclical uptick. Management has guided for two exceptional transactions with a negative net effect of ~1.2% on our FY13 earnings forecast. However, as the impact is immaterial and deemed non-core, we keep our forecasts as well as THB254.6 FV (ROE: 21.9%, COE: 11.0%, growth rate: 5.0%). Still a BUY.

Keeping growth targets. KBANK’s Management is retaining its full-year

2013 growth and key profitability targets despite the Thai Government’s lower economic growth outlook for the year. Management is still confident of achieving the following key operating 2013 targets: i) loans growth of 9%-11%, ii) non-interest income growth of up to 15%, iii) gross non-performing loan (NPL) ratio of below 2.4%, iv) net interest margins (NIMs) of 3.4%-3.6%, and v) a cost-to-income ratio of 45%. Despite fears of domestic economic slowdown and risks to global economic growth, Management emphasized that KBANK’s asset quality trend remains intact given its well diversified loans portfolio. In fact, the group has among the most well-diversified loans portfolios in the industry of 35% SME, 31% corporate, 26% retail and 8% others.

Provision to normalize downwards. The relatively sharp 22% pullback

in KBANK’s share price from its peak was partially driven by concerns over asset quality in its SME portfolio. However, apart from asset quality deterioration on a single corporate account, its overall NPL remained benign, with its gross NPL ratio likely to remain stable at 2.3%, and below the Group’s targeted 2.4% level. KBANK currently has a relatively healthy loans loss coverage ratio of 138% following its 1Q13 prudential provisioning. Despite the expected uptick in NPLs in 2Q13, the massive prudential provisions in 1Q13 of THB3.5bn (implying credit cost 104bps), provides room for a downward normalization in provisions to approximately THB2.0bn (implying credit cost 60bps) in 2Q13. As such, we believe that the market is unlikely to react negatively to the marginal uptick in 2Q13 absolute NPLs as it does not represent a systemic risk, since the Group’s provisions buffers are more than sufficient to mitigate the uptick.

Marginally slower 5M annualized loans growth. The Group’s annualized 5M2013

loans growth of 8.8% is marginally below its full-year target of 9%-11%, with annualized growth of both SME (+4.1% vs FY13F’s 10%-12%) and retail (+6.0% (vs FY13F’s 10%-13%) being the two key drags. However, given that 1Q is typically slower due to lumpy repayments, and the current 8.8% annualized growth is approaching our full-year loans growth target of 10.5%, we believe that the seasonal uptick in 2H loans growth should be sufficient to bring full-year loans growth closer to our estimates. Focus on sustainable fee income growth – Growth set to surpass targets.

Despite slower 5M YTD annualized loans growth, the Group is on track to surpass its 15% non-interest income growth target for 2013. Given the prevailing industry-wide NIM pressure and the capital-intensive nature of driving excessive loans growth, the Group will strive to channel growth into less capital-intensive and higher ROE fee income and bancassurance, for which growth is expected to outpace that of net interest income in FY13. In 1Q13, The Group’s non-interest income expanded at a faster 13.3% q-o-q and 16.7% y-o-y vs its net interest income, which rose by a slower 1.2% q-o-q. KBANK has traditionally seen seasonal weakness in 1Q sequential non-interest income growth due to the seasonally high base in 4Q. As such, the robust growth in 1Q13 was certainly a pleasant surprise. Our recent update with Management suggests that the promising 1Q13 growth trend is sustainable despite the relatively high base effect in FY12, with the upcoming 2Q13 results likely to reflect a robust growth trend. Note that Management has a relatively conservative non-interest income growth target of 15% for FY13, despite 1HFY13 likely to come in at a stronger 17%-18% growth and 2H being typically a stronger non-interest income growth season.

Cross-selling efforts not optimized yet. Despite the Group’s impressive increase in

average product hold ratio from 1.69 in 2007 to 2.82 in 2012, we note that there remains significant upside to raise product hold levels within its consumer segment. Although this segment represents approximately 60% of total deposit base by value, it has the lowest hold ratio among its three core customer segments – consumer, SME and corporates. There is currently a large disparity between product hold rates within its affluent consumer segment and the middle to mass market segments. The affluent segment could exhibit product hold rates of as much as 4.0, while those of the mass and middle market segments range between 1.0 and 2.0. Given the country’s rising affluence, relatively low insurance penetration rates in Thailand, and the Group’s aggressive plan to expand new distribution and convenience channels this year, we see ample scope to raise product hold rates further in the consumer segment. This will indirectly boost its fee income, wealth management and insurance income growth.

Impressive growth lifts ROEs despite NIM pressure. KBANK delivered an

impressive three-year fee income and insurance income CAGR of 15.6% and 34.2% respectively from 2009 to 2012. This bolstered the Group’s ROEs from 13% in 2009 to 21% in 2012 despite NIMs compressing by 20bps over the same period. Note that 78% of the Group’s fee income base is non-loan related – comprising fee income from ATM transactions, money transfers, credit card merchant fees, bancassurance and asset management.

Two extraordinary items to be booked in 2Q13F. KBANK will recognize two

extraordinary items in 2Q13: i) the revision in its K-Transformation plan and a subsequent change in the IT vendor relating to its deposit platform will result in KBANK making provisions expense of around THB1.6bn, and ii) the reversal of an excess loan loss provision expense amounting to about THB1.1bn that it provided for 10 years ago for bad debt transferred to Thai Asset Management Corporation (TMAC). The negative net effect of the two exceptional transactions amounts to approximately THB500m, or 1.2% of our FY13 earnings forecast. As the impact is immaterial and deemed as non-core, we make no changes to our forecasts. Expected core 2Q13F net profit of THB11.0bn (+17% y-o-y and +9% q-o-q).

Excluding the abovementioned exceptional items, KBANK is expected to report a core earnings growth of 23% y-o-y and 9% q-o-q. Even if we were to factor in the impact of the two exceptional items on its 2Q13 earnings, the Group is still expected to post a commendable 12% y-o-y growth in 2Q13 earnings and 15% y-o-y growth in 1HFY13 earnings. Key growth driver of the upcoming 2Q13 results include lower loans loss provisions, solid fee income growth in excess of 15%, and a stable NIM of 3.5%. Maintain BUY; valuations still attractive. The recent selloff in KBANK’s share price

presents an excellent opportunity to accumulate on weakness as valuations are no longer demanding with PB/V of 2.1x and P/E of 10.3x vs ROEs in excess of 20%. KBANK’s focus on sustainable high ROE fee income and NIMs preservation, rather than aggressive loans growth that may pressure margins, should provide upside surprise to its FY13 ROEs and earnings.

SWOT Analysis

Industry leading SME player with highest NIM profile among large banks in Thailand

Structural expansion in ROEs is backed by stable customer driven non-interest income flows

Strong cross-selling abilities with one of the highest product cross-selling hold rates in the industry

Margin compression on its SME business as larger banking competitors start to expand market share within this segment

Regulators tighten measures on consumer loans

Ability to raise fee income from fast-expanding consumer banking franchise

Low insurance penetration rates in Thailand and its relatively strong bancassurance franchise provides ample growth opportunities to help drive fee income growth

Its SME customers may face higher NPL risk in periods of economic uncertainty given their weaker balance sheet capacity

Its SME customers are mainly in the small segment rather than middle market segment
