SADAFCO Q3 earnings review


  • Promotional pricing of UHT milk (41.9% market share of the GCC milk market) has made long life milk more affordable vs. fresh for KSA consumers who are ‘down-trading’ in an environment of weak consumer confidence
  • We expect consumer spending in KSA to worsen in Q4 16e following the government’s announcement that it intends cut bonuses and salaries paid to public sector employees
  • Current global supply dynamics should see FSP1 and MMR1 soft commodity prices retract following the 25% growth experienced YTD. This should help margins in 2017
