TURK TRAKTOR Report - 09/08/2012

TURK TRAKTOR / BUY (Maintained)
 Upward revision to earnings, still cheap
·         Turk Traktor reported 2Q12 net profit of TL102mn (+6% y/y), significantly above our estimate at TL76mn. Over 40% of the deviation from our forecast is owing to stronger operating results (much higher average selling prices and slightly better EBITDA margin). The rest is due to seemingly one-off items such as the reversal of provisions for doubtful receivables (TL5mn) and gain on sale of fixed assets (TL3mn).
·         We left the post-results analyst meeting with the following impressions: i) 2H12 volumes will be lower than what was observed in 1H12; ii) 2013 domestic volumes are unlikely to be lower than those of 2012; iii) Product mix is critical especially at home, a case in point was the introduction of 110hp, more powerful tractors in May 2012, lifting profits in 2Q12.



·         Turk Traktor has not provided any new information about the capital expenditure plans for its new plant (ie. investment size, capacity, timing) saying that the plans have not been finalized yet. We include an investment budget  of TL271mn between 2012-14E in our estimates. 1H12 capex was just TL22mn.
·         We raise our 2012E net profit forecast by 14% and our 2012E net profit forecast by 19% thanks to higher price assumptions and the incorporation of 2Q12 findings into our model. We now predict 12% earnings contraction in 2012E. We are still conservative on 2H12 compared to 1H12 as we continue to predict lower volumes and thus profitability. Yet, our macro assumptions may prove too cautious for 2H12.
·         Our new 12-mth target price based on DCF is TL49.5/share, 4% higher than before. We foresee a total return potential of 44% in Turk Traktor shares in the next 12 months, including a net dividend yield of 7%. We maintain BUY rating. At 2012E P/E of 7.9x, Turk Traktor is still cheap. 2012E ROE is 40%.
·         Lower GDP growth, weaker TL, higher interest rates, lower credit availability, disruption in government subsidies for agriculture and poor crop lowering farmers’ income would have a negative impact on Turk Traktor’s revenue and earnings. A higher than predicted investment budget for the new plant would also lower cash flows and valuation.
