 With 25% upside to our revised TP of S$1.35, we reiterate our BUY call.  While GENS has rallied over 40% since we upgraded our recommendation to BUY from HOLD in August last year, we believe the rally still has legs to run, given the better expected 1Q17 results, recovery in

Recovery in Macau’s gross gaming revenue CRITICAL DATA POINTS TO WATCH y-o-y growth Critical Factors 50% 40% Recovery in VIP business. Over the past couple of years, with the 30% Chinese government embarking on an anti-corruption and 20% 10% austerity drive, VIP players have generally shunned casinos 0% across Asia to avoid the scrutiny of government officials. This -10% -20% resulted in VIP gross gaming revenue (GGR) in Macau and -30% Singapore falling 40% and 34% in CY15 and 7% and 27% in -40% -50% CY16 respectively. For GENS, in combination with its greater -60% focus on credit quality, its market share has declined from mid- 50’s in 2014 to mid-30% by end 2016. Nevertheless, with

Macau’s GGR on an upward trend since August 2016, we are potentially at the start of a recovery. Assuming Singapore VIP win rate back in the normalised range follows the trends in Macau and with management now 3.5% focused on growing its top line, these bode well for GENS's business. We expect VIP rolling chip volumes to bottom out in 3.0% 2017 before a 3% bounce in 2018. This follows c.35% y-o-y fall in 2016. 2.5%

Decline in bad debts. GENS’s de-rating in 2015 and early 2016 was partially due to concerns over rising bad debts. However, 2.0% going into FY17, we believe pressure on earnings from bad debts will ease given GENS's more conservative extension of 1.5% credit to its VIP customers over the past 9-12 months. This can 1Q12 3Q12 1Q13 3Q13 1Q14 3Q14 1Q15 3Q15 1Q16 3Q16 1Q17 be seen in the bad debts falling to S$15m in 1Q17 from around VIP win rate Lower bound - 2.7% Upper bound - 3.0% S$92m in1Q16. Going forward, we estimate GENS’s impairments on receivables to fall to around S$15m per quarter GENS getting bad debts under control down from S$35m previously given management guidance. 100 25% 90 Bad debts trending down Volatility in regional currencies.
