1HFY15 TV shipments have reached 5.9m units (+6% y-o-y), which is
slightly ahead of our FY15 forecast of 12m units (+5% y-o-y). We also
expect Oct-Feb 2015 TV shipments to grow at a faster pace from a low
base – as shipments in Oct-Feb 2014 fell at a range of 8-22% y-o-y.
The implied 11% drop in Sep TV ASP was also less severe than the 1521% decline in the previous four months. ASPs dropped due to: i) lower
display panel costs and ii) increased portion of online sales, which
typically have 10% discount. Due to the lower ASPs, 1H15 TV sales
were down 9% y-o-y vs our +7% y-o-y estimate for FY15F (end March).
We expect TV gross margins to remain stable due to: i) the lower panel
cost, and ii) stronger sales of 4K Cloud TVs. Its blended FY15 GPM
should also see a mild upside from increased white goods contributions
(to 13% in FY15 with a 22% GPM vs 6% of FY14 sales) while the sales
mix of TVs may dip to c.70% in FY15 (FY14: 75%) with a 19% GPM.
Maintain BUY and a TP of HKD4.70, based on a 8x FY15F P/E.
Skyworth’s valuation is still undemanding, as it trades at a 7x FY15F P/E
and offers a dividend yield of 5%.
