Macquarie Research Regional coal - Heading into perfect thermal storm?
Event
Newcastle coal prices have surged by 15% from its low in mid-August to about US$101.5/t currently. This is in line with our positive outlook on coal driven by a seasonally stronger demand period from the Northern Hemisphere and reduction in hydro capacity in China. Further, there are increasing risk of supply disruption in major producing countries (e.g. Indonesian and Australia), which will also tighten the supply-demand balance in the short term. This predicates our positive view on the regional thermal coal sector, especially Asean coal names given its high leverage to the global coal price.
Impact
Entering into seasonally higher demand period. We believe that shortterm coal demand will be partially driven by the recovery in demand in the Northern Hemisphere as it enters into winter period. Historically, we have also seen Chinese hydro generation (+/-20% of Chinese power generation) decrease by about 40–50% QoQ in Q4.
Chinese imports up 14% MoM in September, which is reinforced by our channel checks with coal traders that China import demand is increasing (especially for off-spec coal -both Indonesian sub-bituminous and Queensland coal). This is also supported by the pickup in the Chinese coal price (driven by power stations stocking up ahead of winter period).
Supply disruption leading to tighter market. We expect Indonesian coal supply will remain tight following nine months’ worth of rain (which has caused producers to cut the 2010 target by 5–10%). This is especially as we enter the wet season in Q4 and pre-stripping work has not hit budgets YTD. We have also seen evidence of disruption coming out from Australia; including Xstrata having recently suspended some deliveries from the Rollestone mine in Queensland (with other producers seemingly having a similar problem). Our channel checks also suggest that some coal traders have a short position in Q4 deliveries and need to find coal to avoid liquidation damages.
Potential for spot price to trade above our US$105/t coal price forecast. Given the potential for a tightening supply and demand balance (we forecast roughly an 11mt deficit in 2011), we believe that any supply disruption could lead to large spike in coal price (ie, the spot price to trade above our US$105/t coal price forecast). As a sensitivity analysis, for every US$1/t change in the benchmark coal price assumption, we could see roughly 2–3% swing in earnings.
Outlook
We therefore reiterate our Overweight view on the regional coal sector with Asean coal names as our preference given the high global price exposure and relatively strong production growth profile. Our preferred picks in the sector are Adaro, ITMG and SAR. We also find the Asean coal sector still relatively attractively valued at 10.6x 2011E PER vs the historical average of 12–13x.
Further, given we think that sentiment towards the sector will remain relatively positive, we believe that the Chinese coal stocks will also benefit. Within China, we believe that Yanzhou Coal has the largest global coal price exposure. However, we also like China Coal given its strong production growth profile and China Shenhua given it has been lagging the other coal names.

JPM ASII
Astra International. Slight flagging in demand and car loan rates cut in November. We did some channel checking to assess conditions in the 4 wheeler market, to gauge the near term outlook for Astra International. ASII has gone sideways over the last 2 months and trailed the index by almost 12% since mid-September. Our conclusion is that vehicle volumes are unlikely to challenge mid year peaks over the next few months. Our thesis of a quiet 4Q, followed by a surge in 1HFY11 vehicle sales remains untouched – we retain OW and June 2011, PE based PT of Rp 63,000.
JPM Telco
James Sullivan upgrading ISAT / TLKM / TEL. We are upgrading ISAT to OW with a TP of Rp6,600 and estimated total return of 18%. Our 2Q10 Deep Dive report highlighted a potential turnaround in core operating statistics; all of these trends showed continued improvement in 3Q10, driving our upgrade. We are also
upgrading TLKM and TEL PM to OW (TP of Rp9,800 and Php2,600 respectively) after recent underperformance.
Indonesia wireless growing faster then forecast: All three wireless operators beat our 3Q10 net addition numbers by 24-46%. This provides evidence supporting our contention that rising rural wage growth will start to positively impact telecom industry revenue growth in developing Asia, particularly once penetration hits 100% and lower incremental ARPU no longer drags down the average. We now have an OW recommendation on all three larger Indonesian telco operators.

Reuters Bumi Resources
Nov 10 (Reuters) - Bumi Resources (BUMI.JK), Indonesia's largest coal miner, sees revenues in 2010 rising 14 percent to $4.2 billion on higher average coal selling prices. The firm revised down its estimate for 2010 coal output to 60-61 million tonnes, Dileep Srivastava, head of investor relations at Bumi, told Reuters on Wednesday.
