Mirae Asset Sekuritas Indonesia Christine Natasya [email protected]

3Q20 earnings broadly in line 3Q20 bottom line books IDR417.4bn (-17.7% YoY) with estimates  MNCN booked 3Q20 net profit of IDR417.4bn (-35.2% QoQ, -17.7% YoY). The company booked a forex loss of IDR56.8bn in 3Q20 (vs. IDR208.7bn forex gain in 2Q20). Cumulatively, MNCN booked net profit of IDR1.3tr in 9M20, in line with our estimate at 74% run-rate against 2020F forecast.  On the top-line side, MNCN booked revenue of IDR 1.9tr (-1.2% YoY) in 3Q20. Revenue from TV ad improved by 3% QoQ, albeit still lower than 3Q19 by 10.1%. Nonetheless, this is better than ’s (SCMA/Buy/TP IDR2,100) ad revenue which declined by 22% YoY in 3Q20. MNCN’s revenue in 9M20 also inline with our estimate.

MNCN slowly pays off debt Continue paying off debt  YTD, MNCN has paid off debt of c.IDR900bn and plans to pay off another IDR600bn by end of the year. We project the company’s debt-to-equity will decline to 0.2x in 2020F, vs. 0.4x in 2019.  We think the reduced debt is positive for the company because it is mostly in USD. We do not expect MNCN to issue huge debt in the future as its studio and equipment are already set.

Retain forecasts; Reiterate Maintain Buy recommendation Buy recommendation  MNCN is very upbeat on its digital revenue. In 3Q20, digital revenue grew by 50.1% YoY to IDR266.9bn. MNCN’s chairman stated that the growth of RCTI+ has been the fastest among other digital revenue generators as traffic on RCTI+ has been growing very fast. The company also mentioned that it uses RCTI+ platform for audience to vote for live events, such as Indonesian Idol, indicating how audience are very keen about using the platform and potentially ample revenue going forward. Meanwhile, revenue from social media (Facebook, Tiktok & Youtube) will contribute less than c.30% of digital revenue, as opposed to the contribution from RCTI+, combined with other digital revenue, of more than 30%.  The company is also very optimistic about its better quality of drama and e-TV mall, which would increase the company’s revenue along with a brighter economic outlook. MNCN owns an e-TV mall business patent (i.e. tagline & format) from Indonesia ministry for 50 years operation.  We maintain our Buy recommendation on MNCN and raise our TP to 1,350, which is derived at a higher target PE of 7x (at -0.8 SD of its 7-year mean PE) on our FY21F EPS.
