Surya Semesta Internusa (SSIA IJ; BUY; TP IDR1,470): Corporate News Flash-Channelling More Funds to LMS

WHAT’S BREWING?

·         SSIA will hold an EGM on 31 Oct 2012 to get shareholder approval on its IDR516bn mezzanine loan to Lintas Marga Sedaya (LMS).
·         LMS is a JV company 45%-owned by BUS, with Plus Expressway Bhd holding the balance 55%. It is the licence holder/operator of the Cikampek-Palimanan toll road, with a 35-year concession commencing 21 July 2006.
·         This toll section will link two currently operated sections at Jakarta-Cikampek and Palimanan Kanci (Palikanci).
·         Of the entire project’s estimated IDR12.56trn cost, some IDR7.7trn is for construction, with the remainder for land clearing, design master plan, etc.
·         Some 70% of the cost, or IDR8.8trn, will be financed via a syndicated loan from 22 banks and finance agencies, for which the loan agreement was signed last month. The remaining 30% of the cost will be financed through equity i.e. 10% in shareholders’ capital and 20% from shareholders’ loans.
·         As at August 2012, land acquisition for the project was 96% completed but the loan can only be disbursed after the acquisition is fully complete, including IDR2.5trn mezzanine loan from its shareholders, with SSIA’s share being IDR516bn based on its effective ownership in the company.
·         The loan will be repaid in the form of new LMS shares.

OUR TAKE

·         We believe these transactions will not significantly affect SSIA given that its effective share in LMS is only 20.53%, and is thus non-consolidated.
·         We view the investments positively as SSIA will get a share of LMS’ construction work, which is expected to contribute IDR1.1trn revenue to its construction business.
·         SSIA has ample internal cash to finance the entire transaction, valued at IDR797.6bn, since the company had IDR1.1trn of cash in hand as of 1H12. Besides, it is more than able to generate the operating cash flow required to fund its expansion plans.
·         We are keeping our forecast intact and maintaining our TP of IDR1,470, based on a 8.2x FY13f PE and 2.8x FY13f PBV. Maintain BUY.
