Equity Bottom-Up

<ul>
<li>Delta Thailand shares crashed over 20% in one day after its Taiwan parent sold a stake in the company.</li>
<li>Given the small size of the stake sale, we believe the share sale by the parent represents an opportunistic sale to crystallize value from Delta Thailand's high share price.</li>
<li>We spoke with Delta Taiwan to update our model. Delta Taiwan continues to offer much better value than Delta Thailand, earning more than double Thailand's net profit with similar growth.</li>
