Tigerair and Cebu Air plan to enter into a strategic alliance: Both airlines will: 1) jointly operate common routes between SIN and PHILS and other markets that may emerge when they expand their networks, 2) jointly sell and market common and non-common routes using codeshare or interline arrangements and 3) cooperate in relation to sales and marketing, distribution, airport operations and ground handling, scheduling, pricing, service policies, innovation, procurement and other matters to improve the overall quality of service offered to passengers and reduce costs. Tigerair will also divest its 40% stake in SEAir to fully derive the synergistic benefits of combining their resources. As a result, SEAir will be merged into Cebu Air before entering into the alliance agreement. Post the sale, Tigerair will be present in the Philippines market through the interline agreement with Cebu Air. Cebu Air has agreed to pay S$8.9MM for the 40% stake, implying S$22MM for a 100% stake. The transaction is subject to regulatory approval and is expected to be completed before Mar-14. Tigerair will book a loss of S$13.5MM: Apart from the S$8.9MM that Tigerair will receive from Cebu Air, it will also book a translation gain of S$2.0MM. However, Tigerair will remit to Cebu Air in cash the total amount of forward sales and net non-aircraft liabilities amounting to S$24.4MM resulting in a net loss of S$13.5MM. Tigerair will also terminate the two A319 sublease agreements entered with SEAir and plans to sublease the remaining three A320 aircraft to Cebu Air. We view this positively for Tigerair and Cebu Air: The alliance is in line with Tigerair’s asset-light strategy and builds upon its other alliances announced recently (click here for more details). This is also positive for Cebu Air as it reduces competition and allows it to consolidate its position in the domestic market and enhance connectivity to the Australia and Indian markets. Based on seats, Cebu Air and Tigerair have a 52% combined market share in the domestic PHILS market (vs 47% and 5% individually), a 23% combined market share in the PHILS-Asia market (vs 20% and 4% individually) and a 14% combined market share in SIN-Asia market (vs 2% and 12% individually) in 2013. Based on ASK, Cebu Air and Tigerair have a 51% combined market share in the domestic PHILS market (vs 46% and 5% individually), a 22% combined market share in the PHILS-Asia int'l market (vs 18% and 4% individually) and an 11% combined market share in SIN-Asia market (vs 2% and 9% individually) in 2013. Negative for AirAsia: This alliance will make it even more challenging to operate profitably in PHILS. AirAsia PHILS recorded a net loss of M$65MM in 9M13.

See page 16 for analyst certification and important disclosures, including non-US analyst disclosures.J.P. Morgan does and seeks to do business with companies covered in its research reports. As a result, investors should be aware that the firm may have a conflict of interest that could affect the objectivity of this report. Investors should consider this report as only a single factor in making their investment decision.

Tigerair and Cebu Air plan to enter into a strategic alliance: Both airlines will: 1) jointly operate common routes between SIN and PHILS and other markets that may emerge when they expand their networks, 2) jointly sell and market common and non-common routes using codeshare or interline arrangements and 3) cooperate in relation to sales and marketing, distribution, airport operations and ground handling, scheduling, pricing, service policies, innovation, procurement and other matters to improve the overall quality of service offered to passengers and reduce costs.

Tigerair will also divest its 40% stake in SEAir to fully derive the synergistic benefits of combining their resources. As a result, SEAir will be merged into Cebu Air before entering into the alliance agreement. Post the sale, Tigerair will be present in the Philippines market through the interline agreement with Cebu Air. Cebu Air has agreed to pay S$8.9MM for the 40% stake, implying S$22MM for a 100% stake. The transaction is subject to regulatory approval and is expected to be completed before Mar-14.

Tigerair will book a loss of S$13.5MM: Apart from the S$8.9MM that Tigerair will receive from Cebu Air, it will also book a translation gain of S$2.0MM. However, Tigerair will remit to Cebu Air in cash the total amount of forward sales and net non-aircraft liabilities amounting to S$24.4MM resulting in a net loss of S$13.5MM. Tigerair will also terminate the two A319 sublease agreements entered with SEAir and plans to sublease the remaining three A320 aircraft to Cebu Air.

We view this positively for Tigerair and Cebu Air: The alliance is in line with Tigerair’s asset-light strategy and builds upon its other alliances announced recently (click here for more details). This is also positive for Cebu Air as it reduces competition and allows it to consolidate its position in the domestic market and enhance connectivity to the Australia and Indian markets. Based on seats, Cebu Air and Tigerair have a 52% combined market share in the domestic PHILS market (vs 47% and 5% individually), a 23% combined market share in the PHILS-Asia market (vs 20% and 4% individually) and a 14% combined market share in SIN-Asia market (vs 2% and 12% individually) in 2013. Based on ASK, Cebu Air and Tigerair have a 51% combined market share in the domestic PHILS market (vs 46% and 5% individually), a 22% combined market share in the PHILS-Asia int'l market (vs 18% and 4% individually) and an 11% combined market share in SIN-Asia market (vs 2% and 9% individually) in 2013.

Negative for AirAsia: This alliance will make it even more challenging to operate profitably in PHILS. AirAsia PHILS recorded a net loss of M$65MM in 9M13.

Investment Thesis, Valuation and Risks

AirAsia BHD (Neutral; Price Target: M$2.50)

Investment Thesis

Although we remain positive on Asia’s budget travel market long term and believe AirAsia is well-positioned to leverage this growth, its share price could stay range-bound in the near term as earnings will likely disappoint, hurt by the lower-than-expected average fares and ancillary income.

Valuation

Our Dec-14 PT of M$2.50 is based on 8x 12M fwd Adj. EV/EBITDAR, in line with AirAsia's historical average valuation.

Risks to Rating and Price Target

Key risks: 1) rising fuel prices, 2) substantial aircraft orders and capital commitments, 3) Indo AirAsia’s proposed listing fails to materialize or raises less capital, making it challenging to fund its own fleet expansion, 4) a weaker ringgit, 5) longer-than-expected losses in JV start-ups, 6) potential equity-raising, and 7) worse-than-expected impact from Malindo’s entry.

Asia Pacific Equity Research08 January 2014

Corrine Png(65) [email protected]

Key catalyst for the stock price: Upside risks to our view: Downside risks to our view:

Ancillary revenue growth accelerates,rising earnings contribution from Thai AirAsia, potential listing of Indonesia AirAsia, new JVs in other markets.

Rebound in average fare, fall in fuel prices, stronger MYR, better-than-expected profits from JVs, exit of Malindo from Malaysia.

Rising fuel prices, substantial aircraft orders and capital commitments, Indo AirAsia’s proposed listing fails to materialize or raises less capital, making it challenging to fund its own fleet expansion, weaker ringgit, longer-than-expected losses in JV start-ups, potential equity-raising, and worse-than-expected impact from Malindo’s entry.

Investment Thesis, Valuation and Risks

Cebu Air, Inc. (Overweight; Price Target: Php77.00)

Investment Thesis

We remain OW given our bullish view on the budget travel market and believe Cebu Air is well-positioned given its cost efficiency and strong balance sheet.

Valuation

Our Dec 2014 TP of PHP77 is based on 10x adj. EV/EBITDAR, in line with Cebu Air's average valuation since listing, as we expect Cebu Air's profitability to rebound from 2014.

Risks to Rating and Price Target

Key risks: 1) rising fuel prices, 2) peso depreciation, 3) irrational pricing behavior by competitors, 4) unfavorable financing terms for new aircraft deliveries, and 5) JG Summit Group-related risks.

Key catalyst for the stock price: Upside risks to our view: Downside risks to our view:

Better-than-expected international route expansion and profitability, PAL decides to rationalize its route network which will likely lift Cebu Air, Inc.'s market share, ancillary revenue growth accelerates

More aggressive business expansion plans given strong cash flows, benign industry supply growth, differentiation from regional LCC competitors, fuel prices recede, peso strengthens further.

Uncertainties regarding int’l route expansion, rising fuel prices, inability to secure financing for aircraft deliveries at attractive interest rates, weaker peso, rising LCC competition.

Investment Thesis, Valuation and Risks

Tigerair (Overweight; Price Target: S$0.75)

Investment Thesis

The worst is over for Tigerair, in our view. Its expanding network, increased frequencies and improved on-time performance (at 92% in Sept which ranked it among the top five airlines globally) will likely attract more passengers. However, management expects load factor and fares to remain under pressure in the near term as it will take time for the excess capacity to be absorbed. We prefer SIA in the Singapore transport sector and our top regional LCC pick is Cebu Air.

Valuation

Our Dec-14 price target of S$0.75 is based on 15x Adj. EV/EBITDAR, a 40% discount to Tigerair’s historical average valuation and supported by the recovery of Tiger’s EBITDAR margin to 14% by FY16E, in line with sector peers.

Risks to Rating and Price Target

Key risks are 1) rising fuel prices, 2) Tigerair Australia’s recovery stalls, 3) weaker S$, 4) execution risks in Tigerair Philippines and Tigerair Mandala JVs, and 5) potential equity-raising to fund aircraft capex if sale & leaseback options become unattractive.

Asia Pacific Equity Research08 January 2014

Key catalyst for the stock price: Upside risks to our view: Downside risks to our view:

Ancillary revenue growth accelerates,improved utilization after last year’s capacity indigestion, traffic feed from other airlines following move to Changi Airport Terminal 2, tie-up with Scoot and potential takeover by Singapore Airlines.

Lower fuel prices, better-than-expected traffic and yield growth, higher-than-expected ancillary revenue, higher-than-expected contribution from its associate airlines.

Aggressive fleet expansion plans, rising fuel prices, high financial leverage and potential challenges in securing financing for aircraft deliveries at attractive interest rates,rising LCC competition, further equity raising if sale & leaseback structures become unattractive/losses persist.

The chart(s) show J.P. Morgan's continuing coverage of the stocks; the current analysts may or may not have covered it over the entire period. J.P. Morgan ratings or designations: OW = Overweight, N= Neutral, UW = Underweight, NR = Not Rated

Explanation of Equity Research Ratings, Designations and Analyst(s) Coverage Universe: J.P. Morgan uses the following rating system: Overweight [Over the next six to twelve months, we expect this stock will outperform the average total return of the stocks in the analyst’s (or the analyst’s team’s) coverage universe.] Neutral [Over the next six to twelve months, we expect this stock will perform in line with the average total return of the stocks in the analyst’s (or the analyst’s team’s) coverage universe.] Underweight [Over the next six to twelve months, we expect this stock will underperform the average total return of the stocks in the analyst’s (or the analyst’s team’s) coverage universe.] Not Rated (NR): J.P. Morgan has removed the rating and, if applicable, the price target, for this stock because of either a lack of a sufficient fundamental basis or for legal, regulatory or policy reasons. The previous rating and, if applicable, the price target, no longer should be relied upon. An NR designation is not a recommendation or a rating. In our Asia (ex-Australia) and U.K. small- and mid-cap equity research, each stock’s expected total return is compared to the expected total return of a benchmark country market index, not to those analysts’ coverage universe. If it does not appear in the Important Disclosures section of this report, the certifying analyst’s coverage universe can be found on J.P. Morgan’s research website, www.jpmorganmarkets.com.
