HASCOL _2QCY17 Earnings Preview

HASCOL is slated to release earnings for 2QCY17E/1HCY17E on Wednesday, 30th August, where we expect the OMC to post NPAT of PkR609/981mn (EPS:PkR5.05/8.13/sh) marking increase of 49%/60%YoY. Earnings are backed by continued growth in volumes, stable product prices, pickup in other revenues & income. In addition to the results we expect the OMC to announce an interim payout of PkR3.0/sh maintaining its payout ratio of 60%. From an operational frame the OMC continues to add to its retail network while developments on expanding the non-fuel retail business are in process, where the continued push by management to diversify revenue streams fuels our bullish thesis on continued bottom-line growth at the OMC. We re-iterate our bullish outlook on the stock, citing lucrative additional revenue sources, persistent CAPEX on retail network infrastructure. We have a BUY call on HASCOL with an FCFE based TP of PkR422.5/sh.
