Q3 2026
▲2▼1

Carabao's profit rebound and dividend offset by flood disruption

  • Profit rebound and dividend Q2 core profit beat expectations by 13% despite an 8% yearly decline, prompting a 1.00 baht interim dividend and a target price hike to 67 baht. Brokers expect Q3 profit to return to yearly growth (700–740 million baht, up 15–29%), the first rise in five quarters.

    This is the main positive force driving the stock, showing a turnaround in profitability and shareholder returns.

  • Growth initiatives and stimulus CJ MORE's retail expansion and 2029 IPO plan, plus Thai stimulus extensions (Thai Chai Thai Plus, Thai Help Thai Plus Phase 2) and Krungsri's bullish beverage outlook, support future growth.

    These initiatives and government measures provide additional upside potential for the company's earnings and stock price.

  • Flood disruption Flooding in Chachoengsao disrupted transport, potentially cutting 2026 profit by 2–5% and deferring Q3 revenue to Q4, with shares falling about 10%.

    This is a significant negative event that directly impacted operations and investor sentiment, causing a sharp stock decline.

Carabao's profit rebound and dividend lift shares, but floods delay revenue

  • Q2 profit beat and dividend Carabao's Q2 core profit beat expectations by 13% despite an 8% yearly decline, and a 1.00 baht interim dividend was declared. Dao Securities raised its target price to 67 baht from 47 baht, lifting shares 5%.

    This point explains the positive earnings surprise and dividend that directly boosted the stock price.

  • Q3 profit expected to grow Brokers expect Q3 profit to return to yearly growth (700–740 million baht, up 15–29%), the first rise in five quarters, helped by domestic sales, Myanmar recovery, and OEM expansion.

    This point highlights the anticipated turnaround in earnings, a key positive driver for the stock.

  • Flooding disrupts transport Flooding in Chachoengsao disrupted transport, potentially cutting 2026 profit by 2–5% and deferring Q3 revenue to Q4. Production remained unaffected, but the stock already fell about 10%.

    This point captures the main negative event that pressured the stock price during the period.

CBG's profit recovery and stimulus-driven demand outweigh flood disruption

  • Profit recovery from Q3 2026 Multiple brokers expect CBG's profit to return to year-on-year growth from Q3 2026, with Q3 core profit around 700-740 million baht, up 15-29% YoY. This marks the first YoY growth in five quarters, driven by domestic sales, Myanmar recovery, and OEM expansion. The profit recovery supports a higher share price.

    This is the core reason analysts are bullish and raising targets, directly driving the stock.

  • Flooding disrupts transport but production unaffected Flooding in Chachoengsao may delay transport and defer some Q3 revenue to Q4, with a potential 2-5% hit to 2026 profit. However, the Bang Pakong plant was not directly affected, and brokers view this as a short-term disruption. The stock has already fallen about 10% from pre-flood levels, reflecting the negative news.

    This is the main counterweight to the bullish case, but it is seen as temporary and already priced in.
