Jeju Air (089590 KS ) Fears of rights issue come to pass Airlines W170bn rights offering to cause 32% share dilution Company Report Yesterday, Jeju Air announced its decision to issue 12.14mn new shares, representing May 22, 2020 46% of its current shares outstanding. The new shares will be offered to e xisting shareholders (20% to the employee stock ownership association) on a basis of 0.37 th th shares for each share held. The subscription period will run from July 14 to July 15 , and any shares unsubscribed by existing shareholders will be offered to the public. The record date for the rights offering will be June 10th , 2020 , and the new shares will be (Downgrade) Sell listed on August 4, 2020. Target Price (12M, W) 17,000 The offering is expected to raise roughly W170bn, of which W67.8bn will be used on debt repayment and W102.2bn on working capital. The expected offering price is Share Price (05/21/20, W) 19,600 W14,000 per share, but the final price will be determined based on the first reference price (June 5 th ) and the second reference price (July 9 th ). Expected Return -13% More fundraising may be needed by year-end if current conditions continue As of end-1Q20, Jeju Air held cash and cash equivalents of W68bn (W99bn when OP (20F, Wbn) -174 including short-term financial assets). We believe the carrier has reduced its monthly Consensus OP (20F, Wbn) -181 cash outflow from over W50bn to W30-40bn currently by deferring some payments (leases, etc.) and furloughing its employees. Nevertheless, we still expect the carri er to EPS Growth (20F, %) - essentially run out of cash by the end of 2Q20. Market EPS Growth (20F, %) 27.1 P/E (20F, x) - The airline industry is currently suffering from the worst downturn in its history. In Market P/E (20F, x) 13.4 2Q20, we forecast Jeju Air’s international passenger traffic to plunge 87.6% YoY, driving KOSPI 1,998.31 down overall revenue to W84.1bn (-73.1% YoY). While the rate of revenue decline is likely to slow beginning in 3Q20, the carrier could face renewed funding pressures by Market Cap (Wbn) 517 the end of the year if current travel restrictions continue. Shares Outstanding (mn) 26 Free Float (%) 33.0 Key points to watch going forward include: 1) a recovery in industry conditions; 2) Foreign Ownership (%) 3.1 additional stress following the Eastar Jet acquisition; and 3) the success of the rights Beta (12M) 1.86 offering, which could determine additional support from the government. In light of industry conditions and the carrier’s earnin gs outlook, we would not rule out the 52-Week Low 12,000 possibility of some shares going unsubscribed. The Eastar Jet acquisition could also put 52-Week High 36,900 further pressure on consolidated earnings in the near term (a factor we have not (%) 1M 6M 12M reflected in our estimates). Jeju Air is currently set to receive W170bn in government Absolute -1.0 -16.1 -43.1 funds for the acquisition. If the carrier’s rights offering proves a success, it is unlikely Relative -6.9 -11.9 -41.3 that the government would provide massive aid to fund working capital for some time. 120 Jeju Air KOSPI Downgrade to Sell; TP of W17,000 100 We present a target price of W17,000 (based on RIM valuation), which accounts for the 80 dilution caused by the rights offering. With our target price implying 13.2% downside 60 to the current share price, we downgrade our rating from Hold to Sell. Even based on 40 earnings estimates for 2022, which is when operating conditions are expected to fully 20 return to normal, we estimate the stock’s P/E would expand from 10x to 15x following 5.19 9.19 1.20 5.20 the share issue, which could spark worries about valuation.
