Inflation has slowed after peaking in July 2014. Barring supply shocks, especially if El Niño
strengthens, 2015 inflation could end up below the central bank’s 2-4% target. Next year, inflation
could trend up because of the low base this year to the mid to high end of the central bank’s 2-4%
target.

• The central bank tightened liquidity and credit in 2014, raising policy rates by 50 bps
and the reserve requirement by a cumulative 2 pps in two adjustments.
• Despite this, the upward impact on market interest rates, particularly bank lending
rates, has been moderate.
• With Philippine inflation expected to stay below to within target this year & next, we
expect only modest rate hikes from the BSP.

The government has budgeted 15% more in government spending this year and
next. We expect govt. spending to pick up ahead of the 2016 elections.
Low oil prices will help keep inflation subdued. Imports of mineral fuels, lubricants
and related materials were $3.8bn lower yoy in the 1st 8 months. Annualized, that’s
equivalent to 2% of full year GDP.
BSP may follow if US Fed increases interest rates, but rate hikes likely to be modest.

A strong El Niño until 2016 could hurt agricultural production with the consequent negative impact on
inflation & GDP. Government’s preparedness in light of advance warnings would be tested. According to the
National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration of the US Department of Commerce, there is a 95% chance
that El Niño will continue until June 2016.

Notes on the 2016 presidential elections
Philippine presidential elections are personality-centric, i.e., candidates win on the basis of
their personal popularity and not on the strength of their political platforms.

Summary
• Banks will be weighed down by capital raising requirements for Basel III and for domestic
systematically important banks (DSIBs), the cap on real estate lending and the ASEAN integration,
among others. But we like MBT because its capital ratios are more than enough to comply with the
regulation and it stands to benefit the most from the prospect of higher NIMs as interest rates
increase.
• Property companies will continue to benefit from rising income and low interest rates. Any interest
rate hike is expected to be minimal. We prefer property companies whose revenues have a
significant rental income component.
• Ayala Land is the top and most diversified property developer in the Philippines and has led other
property companies in profit growth in the past few years.
• We like MEG because it is the largest BPO landlord and is the biggest land owner in Fort Bonifacio.
• We also like Robinsons Land because of the increasing share of higher-margin recurring income to
the company’s revenue stream.
• We expect robust consumer spending to continue, driven by consumer confidence, OFW
remittances and BPO income. Among consumer stocks, we like CNPF, DNL, RRHI & URC.
• Power companies EDC, FGEN & Semirara are recovering strongly after technical issues in 2013 and
their capacity expansion programs are starting to come on stream.
• Petron has started to realize the expected benefits from its recently-completed $2bn refinery
upgrade.
• Gaming stocks are being hit by China’s effort to curb corruption among its officials, which has
already adversely affected Macau’s gaming revenues.
• Our 12-month forward target PSEi level is 8,200. Our PSEi target translates to a 15% yoy increase.

A property bubble may be mitigated by the following factors:
• Property companies are not overly leveraged.
• Property companies build residential high rise condominiums tower by tower. They do not build
the next tower until 70% of the current tower has been sold.
• Foreigners are restricted from owning land in the Philippines.
• Most property companies do not book revenues until 20% D/P has been paid.
• Loanable value of real estate mortgages has been capped at 60% of property’s appraised value.
• The BSP has expanded the 20% restriction on loans to the real estate sector by including housing
loans and banks’ investments in securities issued by property companies.

Power sector: Supply risks remain despite expected additional capacity.
• Mindanao has been suffering from brownouts since 2010. This is due to inadequate baseload
capacity (only 37%) and 48% of capacity coming from hydro, which can hardly run during summer.
• Luzon’s capacity is also vulnerable as around 18% is accounted for by hydro. Baseload plants
comprise 64% of capacity. 23% of power plants in Luzon are more than 30 years old, hence
requiring frequent maintenance.
• Renewable energy projects are provided incentives under the feed-in-tariff system (FIT). EDC’s
150MW Burgos wind farm is one of the first to enjoy the incentives.
– Renewable energy (RE) projects eligible for the FIT system will be given guaranteed generation
volume and power rates for 20 years. The rates are adjusted for local inflation and foreign
exchange.
– Awarding of the FIT system is on a first-come, first served basis where those first
commissioned will be awarded the guaranteed rates.

Telecom – intense competition in a market facing limited growth
Globe has managed to increase its market share in mobile and broadband since last year to 40% from 35%
previously, lifting its share price by 18% ytd.
PLDT has been sold down due to its market share loss but stock is a worthy investment for its forecasted 2016
dividend yield of 6.7%.
Telstra’s entry through partnership with SMC worsens outlook for current players.

Mining sector – recovery of metal prices uncertain
Drop in gold, copper and nickel prices seem to have stopped, but whether prices will reverse trend is
uncertain.
Even if metal prices start to trend up, recovery in prices of mining companies will likely face heavy resistance
along the way.

Banking sector – still at risk of lower income and
additional capital raising
Banks’ income will still be at risk due to likelihood of a US Fed rate hike going forward, which limits potential
for earning trading gains.
At the same time, additional capital requirement for DSIBs make further capital raising and, therefore,
dilution, possible.
