Tenaga Nasional (TNB) reported flat net profit of RM1.73bn (-0.1% YoY) in 4QFY17. Stripping out YTD forex gain of RM7.9m, interest payable to government on Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) Savings Fund of RM280m, as well as one-off deferred tax expense of RM300m, core net profit for FY17 declined by 3.2% to RM7.5bn. The results were above our but within consensus’ expectations at 105% and 99% of full year estimates respectively. The discrepancy in our forecast was due to higher-than-expected other operating income. Separately, TNB announced on the revision of its dividend policy to payout ratio of 30%-60% PATAMI (from 30-50% previously) and proposed a final single-tier dividend of 44sen during the quarter, bringing full year dividend to 61sen. We roll-over our DCF valuation, bringing our TP to RM17.02 (previously RM16.16). We continue to like TNB due to its defensive nature and undemanding valuation of 11.0x FY18F EPS. Our Outperform call is reaffirmed.
final single tier dividend of 44sen for the quarter, bringing full year dividend to 61sen, translating to a payout ratio of 50% of its PATAMI.
