FY16 results review
In the recently announced FY16 results, Thai Beverage
Public Company (ThaiBev) reported a 29% y-o-y drop in
headline net profit to THB18.9bn on revenue of
THB139.2bn (-19%) compared to THB172bn (FY15). The
decline was mainly due to the change in its financial year
end to September from December and, hence FY16 figures
are based on nine months instead of 12 months.
Comparing results based on a like-for-like 9-month period,
ThaiBev would have reported a 15% y-o-y revenue growth,
and a 7% drop in net profit compared to 9M15. The drop
was mainly due to an absence of one-off disposal gain
recognised by its associate, F&N, arising from the disposal of
Myanmar Brewery Limited (gain of THB3.8bn). Excluding the
gain, we estimate net profit would have increased by 13.9%
instead.
