Asean-focused. Ex-Head of Thai Research

<p>The recent merger with Line Man values Wongnai at US$110m and hence Ookbee at US$40m. In this review, we check out the other known VC investments of Intuch as well as Digital Gaming, a recent gaming platform in which AIS has invested with its partner at Singtel. Here's what we found:</p><ul>
<li>
<strong>Value accretion</strong>. The value added are immaterial, less than Bt1/sh for Intuch, but gives us a glimpse of the rather opaque VC business. Of these, the best project is arguably the microlender Peer Power, which charges interest rates in the 6-22% range.</li>
<li>
<strong>Gaming. </strong>While we are generally bullish on gaming, we estimate that Digital Gaming destroyed some value for AIS given the acquisition price. The indirect impact on Intuch is negligible.</li>
<li>
<strong>Limitations of assumption</strong>. Given the very limited information and Intuch's own non-controlling stake nature (only 25%), we make our assumptions conservative. As the case of Wongnai shows, there is room for positive surprise.</li>
<li>
<strong>A good mix conceptually. </strong>The important thing about Intuch's VC arm, apart from its size, is that it has a decent track record, and don't forget that with Bt200m budget annually, they will make more of these investments.</li>

Equity Bottom-Up

<p>AIS recently invested in the online gaming industry. We took the opportunity to visit the country's largest mobile operator and second largest online gaming company. This is a what we found:</p><ul>
<li>AIS reported 3.3% earnings QoQ increase despite a 2.4% decline in revenues when its stores were closed as a result of the pandemic due to a combination of: 1) marketing &amp; administrative cost reduction and 2) increase in contribution from broadband subscribers.</li>
<li>While the largest operator still expects a 1-5% decline in revenues and EBITDA, they are not exactly standing still, diversifying into games, cloud, insurance, and online marketing, while trying to make the most of the spectrum they recently won.</li>
<li>AsiaSoft reported a 6-fold increase in profits on the back of Bt450m revenues (more than double of last year), 60% of which came from <strong>outside Thailand</strong>! We were literally shocked with the results  (+197% revenue growth in Singapore for eg.) and will go all-in on this stock now.</li>
<li>We are not too alarmed by COM7's 8% QoQ and 5% YoY earnings decline given the store closure. Rather, it shows resilience and resourcefulness that they shifted some sales to online channels and sold at cost or even loss to garner cash flows needed for survival. Generating Bt271m of profits at all in Q2'20 was a feat in itself and is likely due to its contract with True Shop for management.</li>
