Non-residential component takes centre-stage

Upgrade on improved outlook, reiterate Overweight. We upgrade our TP by 30% to EGP16.0/share (c40% upside), on two key developments. TMG is due to launch its project in the New Capital (8% of EV) this summer, with presales of cEGP4.0bn expected during the year. Secondly, TMG sold EGP3.6bn (+5.5x y-o-y) worth of commercial units during 2017, pointing to the start of a new era for the company. Recurring income grew by 64% y-o-y, with hotels (19% of EV) growing by 51% on a standalone basis. TMG has a backlog of cEGP30bn, bested only by Emaar Misr (EGP33bn), yet it trades at an EV of 1.1k/sqm, a 25% discount to peer average, despite a large portion of its residual land bank earmarked for the non-residential segment. Only SODIC boasts a more attractive valuation (EV of EGP1.0k/sqm).

Recurring income contribution on the rise. During 2017, recurring income comprised c25% of TMG’s top line, significantly higher than any other listed Egyptian developer, with hotels alone comprising c13%. Non-hotel recurring income, which mainly consists of retail income, services, and club subscriptions, grew by c82%, strongly driven by increased inhabitancy in Madinaty (c30k families) and Rehab (c32k families). TMG set a target of 40-45% gross profit contribution from recurring income (currently at 25%) by 2020, which will largely depend on opening of retail space in Madinaty, as well as new club subscriptions. Recurring income, inclusive of hotels, comprises c31% of our valuation.

New Capital launch the main catalyst for the stock. We expect presales of cEGP30bn from the project as a whole generated over a period of seven years, with a gross profit margin of c30%. We expect pricing in the project to be at a slight discount to Madinaty, with the New Capital seen as untested waters, and TMG considered a first-mover within our coverage into the area. This project currently adds cEGP1.20/share to our TP (8% of EV), and we view its launch as the main short-term catalyst for the stock.
