HUBC: A new chapter!

We revise our target price for Jun’23 to PkR127.3/sh, offering an upside of 98% from last
close and a D/Y of 12.4%.
 We now incorporate an average US$/PkR parity of 245/265 for FY23/FY24 and a longterm
annual depreciation of 7% (6% previously). Moreover, we foresee CPI inflation of
25% in FY23, 13%/10% in FY24/FY25, while keeping a long-term inflation rate of 9%. For
Crude Oil, we estimate the price at US$95 for FY23, US$90/US$80 for FY24/FY25 and a
long-term average price of US$70/bbl.
 According to our projections, the two Thar coal plants coming online in 1HFY23 add
PkR15.4/sh (holding in TEL: 60%) and PkR9.8/sh (holding in TNPTL: 38.3%) to HUBC’s value
respectively.
 We have an expectation of PkR8.0/sh in dividends for FY23 (D/Y: 12.4%), while FY24 is
expected to yield 15.5%. Although the impact of our revised assumptions is significant,
we have incorporated the build-up of circular debt for the sector as capacity payments
increase, hence keeping the impact on our valuation modest as cashflow is hampered.
