JYP Entertainment (035900 KQ ) High profitability confirmed Entertainment 3Q19 review: Above-consensus OP of W14.8bn Results Comment For 3Q19, JYP Entertainment announced consolidated revenue of W45.6bn (+34.5% November 15, 2019 YoY) and operating profit of W14.8bn (+74.5% YoY). Operating profit hit a quarterly high, surpassing both the market consensus and our estimate (W12bn). Earnings were strong across the board, especially in the content (album/digital; +18% YoY) and concert (+150% YoY) segments. Gross margin and OP margin were 51% and 32% , respectively, boosted by operating leverage effects and the partial recognition of (Maintain) Buy TWICE's dome tour. Target Price (12M, W) ▲ 31,000 Album/digital music revenue was W16bn (+18% YoY). Album sales included 43 0,000 copies of TWICE’s new mini album and 120,000 copies of ITZY’s debut album. Global Share Price (11/14/19, W) 22,100 digital music revenue continued to expand to W2.3bn (+28% YoY), driven by growing demand from global platform operators. Meanwhile, other revenues grew to W12.3bn Expected Return 40% (+15% YoY), aided by robust merchandise sales, YouTube revenue (W1.3bn; +49% YoY), and fan club membership fees. Concert revenue surged to W10bn (+150% YoY), buoyed by TWICE's dome tour (partial recognition) and GOT7’s world tour. OP (19F, Wbn) 42 High profitability to raise expectations for 2020 earnings Consensus OP (19F, Wbn) 37 In 2Q19, increased management and content production costs caused gross margin to EPS Growth (19F, %) 37.4 contract 4.6%p QoQ to 43.7%, which had raised concerns over profitability in spite of Market EPS Growth (19F, %) -32.1 new artist debuts and overseas tours. We believe the biggest takeaway of the latest P/E (19F, x) 23.5 results is the removal of such profitability concerns. Market P/E (19F, x) 14.3 KOSDAQ 663.31 Expectations on 2020 earnings are likely to grow, as key artists should be fully active . TWICE’s scheduled activities in Japan have been increasing through the years, while Market Cap (Wbn) 784 DAY6 and GOT7 are scheduled for world tour s. We also expect to see new activities Shares Outstanding (mn) 35 from ITZY and Stray Kids. Any concerns over profitability should be limited through Free Float (%) 74.8 end-2021, given top-line growth potential and the absence of changes in artist Foreign Ownership (%) 9.2 contracts. Beta (12M) 0.79 52-Week Low 16,950 Maintain Buy and lift TP to W31,000; Earnings to be driven by global projects 52-Week High 34,450 We reiterate our Buy call on JYP Entertainment and lift our target price to W31,000 , as we changed our valuation base period to 2020 while maintaining our earnings (%) 1M 6M 12M estimates. Our target P/E remains unchanged at 27x. Despite uncertainties over the Absolute -2.0 -20.4 -32.2 Korea-Japan row, we remain positive, given TWICE ’s extended concert tour, progress in Relative -5.2 -14.7 -31.4 the Nizi project, and the absence of any worrying signs in the Oricon charts. 130 JYP Entertainment KOSDAQ Meanwhile, JYP Entertainment has several projects planned for 2020 that should help 110 transform the company into a global player. These include the aforementioned Nizi project in Japan (debut targeted for late 2020), Project C in China (debut targeted for 90 2H20), and a global idol project (likely in the US). We expect the removal of earnings- 70 related concerns to draw attention to the long-term growth potential provided by 50 these global projects. 11.18 3.19 7.19 11.19 Mirae Asset Daewoo Co., Ltd.
