We continue to like IMAX China’s new film selection strategy that has been implemented since 2H17 to accommodate more local films with higher flexibility to local exhibitors. However, even after factoring that in (we already estimate a 16% 18-20E BO CAGR), we still come out with a lacklustre 4% earnings CAGR for IMAX China, given the expected lower contribution from sales-type installations and flattish PSA.

Downgrade to Neutral with TP of HK$27.77 We downgrade IMAX China to Neutral from Outperform as we:

 1) see slower BO momentum coming after Avengers. We expect IMAX China’s BO growth to slow down to 10% YoY in 2Q18 and 14% YoY in 2H18 from 27% YoY in 1Q18. We are not that positive regarding the film pipeline throughout the rest of the year we see so far, while the Chinese local films would be the key swing factor.

 2) expect the first decline in the sales-type system installations. Those one-off installations supported IMAX China’s financial performance during 2016-17. Based on the company’s guidance, its total installations this year will drop to 105 from 119/120 in 2016/17. Of which, the sales-type installations will drop to 37 from 33/44 in 2016/17. We see the sales-type installations to decline to 33/25 in 2019/20E.

 As such, we expect IMAX China’s earnings growth to stall to 4% in 2018-20E, after we trim our 19- 20E earnings estimates by 1-2%. Our 19/20E earnings estimates are 5% and 12% below consensus.

 The stock is now trading at a 24.3x 19E PER, with a 6% 18-21E earnings CAGR, or 4.0x PEG. Historically, the stock has traded at a 41x PER average (20-58x) with a 20% 2014-17 earnings CAGR, or 2x PEG.

 Our new target price of HK$27.77 is based on a 26x 18-19E average PER (from HK$31.35 based on a 30x 18-19E average PER). We revise down our target PER to reflect the expected slower growth (4% vs 8% prior) and the confidence level regarding the overall China box office growth. We would not turn more positive bullish until we see a clearer sign of box office growth resumption from the industry.

Softer momentum after Avengers  IMAX China registered strong revenue growth of 51% YoY in 1Q18, thanks to the 27% YoY BO growth (driven by CNY performance) and the sales type-installations. IMAX China added 5 new installations during 1Q18, according to IMAX US results, and all 5 of those are sales-type, which is positive to its margin profile in 1Q.

 Even with the Rmb2.36bn BO garnered from Avengers 3, IMAX China’s 2Q18 BO could just come in line with our estimate of US$196m (10% YoY). That points to a weak BO from other slates such as Solo: A Star Wars Story (Rmb105m BO in PRC since launch on 25 May) and the block of Deadpool 2 in PRC. That also reflects the weak PRC BO after 40% YoY growth in 1Q18. QTD PRC BO declined by 12% YoY to Rmb8.6bn (as of 12 June; excluding service fee), according to Maoyan data.

 What adds to our concern is the upcoming slate and the fact that we are entering domestic movie protection month (normally from mid-June to end-July/mid-Aug). We are not particularly positive on the Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, after we watched the film (in other markets), even though it is the top-anticipating film in China currently, according to Dianping. Incredible 2 is not on the top 10 anticipated list, and Animal World, a local film loosely adapted from Nobuyuki Fukumoto's manga, starring Li Yifeng, and Michael Douglas, is ranked top 6.

 In 2H18, we think Mission: Impossible 6, Vanom (another superhero film) may have good performance but we do not see this as a strong pipeline overall. In 2H17, there was Dunkirk, Spider-Man: Homecoming, War for the Planet of the Apes, Kingsman: The Golden Circle, Geostorm, Thor: Ragnarok, Justice League etc and two local films The Foreigner (US-China co-production), Never Say Die in the golden week.

 We believe there will be more local films to be announced by IMAX China as part of its new film selection strategy. We think that might include Detective Dee 3 (July 2018) and Dying To Survive (July 2018). The performance of those local films will be a key swing factor to our BO estimate, but this year so far, we do not see a tent pole slate like in 2017.

 Overall, we expect IMAX China’s BO growth to slow down to 14% YoY in 2H18, despite relatively easy comps (+7% YoY in 2H17). Going forward, we forecast 16%/15% BO growth for IMAX China in 2019/20E, with similar growth of 16% in 18E. This is more to factor in the company’s film strategy since 2H17 to accommodate for more local films. We consider this a pretty aggressive assumption.

 We expect IMAX China’s PSA to decline to US$226k in 2H18 from US$246k in 2H17 and to remain under pressure at US$562k-572k in 2019-20E on a full-year basis. The PSA and the incremental depreciation associated with continued growth in the IMAX theatre network under the revenue sharing arrangement will also keep weighing on the gross margin of revenue-sharing arrangement, in our view.

Passed its installation peak  In 2016-17, when the box office softened, sales growth from IMAX China was largely supported by its network expansion, i.e. primarily the expansion in sales-type installations. IMAX China’s sales increased by US$16m in 2016-17 and sales from these one-off installations contributed US$20m. The company newly installed 41 sales-type systems in 2017, increasing from 33 in 2016 and 25 in 2015. The earnings contribution should be higher than that given the higher gross margin of sales-type installations.

14 June 2018 5 Macquarie Research IMAX China Holdings

 However, the announced 2018 installation plan of IMAX China implies that the number of installations has passed its peak for the first time in history. They plan to install 105 IMAX systems in 2018, down from 119/120 in 2016/17. And the sales-type installations would reduce to 37 from 41 in 2017, based on the company’s guidance. That means the gross margin would also be adversely impacted as those one-off installations carry a high gross margin of more than 70% (compared to the company’s average of 55%-60%). And certainly, its financials in that way will be more reliant on its BO performance going forward.

 As the Chairman of IMAX China put it, “China is a big market, and we penetrated a lot of it, but it's not an infinite market”. Going forward, we expect to see sales contribution from its sales-type installations to decline to 23% in 2020 from 45% in 2017.

 Still, the timeline of IMAX China’s sales-type arrangement installations and its opex reduction remains a swing factor and could bring upside risk to our estimate. Namely, the company could book sales- type installations earlier to enhance its financial performance (as the case in 2017), and could continue to manage down SG&A (though it guided +9% YoY in 2H17 earnings call). But that, in our view, is relatively less encouraging compared to quality box office growth. Indeed, the higher sales contribution from sales-type installations could be a double-edge sword, i.e. +ve on near-term financial performance while dampens long-term box-office sharing upside.
