Protelindo (Buy, TP: IDR1,500, +88%) Q3 24 Quick Take: Faster topline ...
Protelindo saw revenue and EBITDA trends accelerate this quarter helped by the IBST consolidation. As a result, revenue YTD are now trending above the 4-6% guidance. There was some slowdown in FTTT this quarter but growth remained robust.
- Chris Hoare
Mitratel (Buy, TP: IDR1,135, +76%) Q3 24 Quick Take: Faster
Mitratel delivered a faster topline and EBITDA trend, backed by healthy colocations and cost efficiencies again. Q4 is expected to slow as the M&A impact from its acquisition of PT Gametraco laps, but given the pace of EBITDA growth thus far (YTD +12%) and consensus at 9% for the full year, the bar is low going into Q4 (implies 2% growth).

EM Towers Q2 CY24 review: Improving trends in China and Africa, Indon...
Revenue and EBITDA trends improved again for China Tower, which alongside stable depreciation supported bottom-line momentum. In Indonesia, MTEL and TOWR continued to perform where the latter benefited from faster growth in its Fibre business thus should act as a buffer should the XL and Smartfren deal were to proceed.

Sarana Menara Nusantara (TOWR IJ) - 2Q24: Revenue From Non-tower Busin...
TOWR recorded 1H24 EBITDA of Rp5.1t, in line with our and consensus estimates. However, its 1H24 NPAT of Rp1.6t was slightly below our and consensus expectations. Last July, iForte completed the acquisition of 90.1% of IBST with acquisition value of Rp3.4t. We are monitoring for more clarity regarding TOWR’s rights issue plan (EGM scheduled on 25 Oct 24) and potential merger between FREN and EXCL. Downgrade to HOLD with a target price of Rp930, due to valuation.

Telecommunications – Telcos’ Mobile Data Revenue Could Grow 7% yoy
We maintain OVERWEIGHT on the telecommunications sector in view of several factors: a) telcos’ 2024/25 mobile data revenue could grow 8%/7% yoy, b) digital channels (penetration ranging from 29% to 55%) could help improve ARPU, c) telcos’ EBITDA growth could reach 8% yoy in 2024 and 4% yoy in 2025, and d) attractive valuation with many telcos trading at -1SD EV/EBITDA. Our top pick is EXCL (BUY/Target: Rp2,900).

Protelindo (Buy, TP: IDR1,500, +75%) Q2 24 Quick Take: Faster topline...
Protelindo maintained growth at the upper bound of its 4-6% guidance again as improved FTTT performance helped offset the lower Tower revenue. Margins were lower YoY, but justifiably so as non-Tower contribution rose to 34% versus 26% last year.

Strategy - Alpha Picks: Trailing JCI’s Strong Showing In Aug 24
The JCI rallied strongly in Aug 24, rising 10.7%. 5.0% of the return was due to the rupiah appreciation. The strong rally caused our portfolio to underperform despite our portfolio delivering a 7.6% increase. Over the past 10 years, the return of the JCI in September averaged -1.62%. Considering the 10.7% return of the JCI in Aug 24, it might be wise to be slightly defensive in Sep 24. Thus, add ICBP and TOWR. Our picks are ICBP, TOWR, BBNI, BMRI, BBRI, EXCL, CTRA, BBTN, CMRY, SIDO and JSMR.

Telecommunications – 2Q24: 11% yoy Growth In Core Profit
The combined EBITDA of TLKM, ISAT and EXCL grew 5% yoy in 2Q24. ARPU of ISAT and EXCL rose 5% yoy and 6% yoy respectively, while the ARPU of TLKM’s subsidiary for the cellular business (Telkomsel) declined 10% yoy. During 2Q24, ISAT gained a little market share (based on EBITDA) among the top three telcos, partly because it managed to expand its EBITDA margin slightly (2Q24: 49% vs 1Q24: 47%). Maintain OVERWEIGHT with EXCL as our top pick.

IHS Towers (Buy, TP: $8, +158%) Q2 24: Solid quarter and encouraging ...
IHS Towers has reported a solid set of Q2 results. Organic top line growth has seen a strong acceleration, driven by Nigeria, while margins improved nicely too. There was no new news regarding the strategic review. However, the company made a key announcement last week about the contract renewals with MTN Nigeria (HERE).

MTN (Buy, TP: ZAR130, +73%) IHS Towers (Buy, TP: $8, +167%) MTN and I...
Both MTN Nigeria and IHS Nigeria have announced the renewal and extension of all their MLAs in Nigeria, including new financial terms. This development is materially positive for both companies in our view. This means all MLAs in Africa between MTN and IHS have now been renewed and extended. Separately, MTN has also announced the exit from Guinea-Bissau.

Mitratel (Buy, TP: IDR1,135, +73%) Q2 24: YTD EBITDA tracking ahead
Mitratel reported better trends this quarter, supported by its Fiber and Tower operations (acquired 803 towers from PT Gametraco Tunggal in December 2023). EBITDA continue to rise ahead of revenue leading to improvements in margins again. Against consensus and guidance (high-single digit), 1H revenue (+7.7%) is in line while EBITDA (+10%) stays ahead.
