Company Update | PTT (PTT TB/BUY/Bt35.00/Target: Bt39.00) We expect PTT’s 4Q25 net profit to rise qoq and yoy, driven by significant extra gains, while core profit weakens due to softer gas EBITDA and lower subsidiary and associate contributions. Core earnings are projected to recover in 2026, supported by the single pool gas formula to a new approach called the Utility Model and stronger P&R and utilities profits. We forecast a 2H25 dividend of Bt1.30/share. Maintain BUY. Target price: Bt39.00.

China Strategy - The End Of Cycles?

The stronger-than-expected 1Q19 economic data and central bank backstop have fuelled optimism that cycles are a thing of the past. With animal spirits rekindled, our more cautious view since end-February has not played out well. Although we have not seen an improvement in risk-reward so far and further meaningful monetary easing will be needed to see a sustainable recovery, we are adjusting our strategy to include laggards and policy-supported sectors in our BUY list.
