Equity Bottom-Up

BJC’s 3Q20 net profit was at Bt1.1bn (-40%YoY, +247%QoQ). The 9M20 result accounted for 60% of 2020E earnings forecast.<ul>
<li>The fall in 3Q20 earnings was pressured by a drop in revenue to Bt35bn (-9%YoY,-3%QoQ). SSSG reported at -17.8% from -17% in 2Q20.</li>
<li>We maintain our positive outlook in 2021 earnings driven by (1) improvement of SSSG by 3%YoY in 2021E (2) recovery in rental income after easing lockdown as we expect occupancy rate to pick up to 95% in 2021 from a bottom at 85% in 2Q20 (3) cost saving from tax-deductible item in the next three year.</li>
<li>We still like this stock given (1) its strong integrated solid supply chain which allow the company to benefit from industry growth and recovery; (2) double digits growth for small format stores in the next two years (ie., Mini BigC and BigC Market which currently contribute 15% of total sales).</li>
</ul>We maintain BUY rating with a new target price of Bt43 (Previous TP of Bt55) based on 30xPE’21E, closed to Consumer Discretionary Sector. Target price cut was due to earnings downward revision by 22% in 2021E.
