WOOD Flash – MMK: 3Q18 financial results – 5% ahead of consensus EBITDA, 4.4% quarterly dividend yield

MMK has just released its 3Q18 financial results. EBITDA grew 3% qoq (+26% yoy) to USD 671m, 5% ahead of the consensus and 3% above our estimate. Net income was up 2% qoq and 45% yoy, to USD 400m, 8% ahead of the consensus due to the higher EBITDA. FCF rose 29% qoq, to USD 362m, slightly above our USD 326m estimate. The company also recommended a dividend payout of 100% of the FCF (in line with our expectations), which implies a 4.4% yield for the quarter, and 9.7% for 9M18. Overall, the results are slightly above expectations and should be positive for the share price, in our view.
