Pakistan OMC Sector - After Shocks of Economic Policies

FO sales have tapered off rather rapidly than earlier anticipations falling down by 66%YoY in 1HFY19 owing to shift towards LNG/Coal based power generation. We believe that FO sales would continue at muted levels clocking in 3.3/2.6mntons during FY19 / FY20 and onwards.
More surprising was HSD sales which too faced predicament with volumes declining by 21%YoY in 1HFY19 owing to rather significant slowdown in volumetric imports and intra-country trade. In this regard, we anticipate seasonal pickup in demand to limit HSD sales decline to 12%YoY standing at 7.9mntons in FY19.

PSO 1QFY24 & PSMC 3QCY23 Result Previews, (AKD Daily Oct 19, 2023)

PSO – PAT to clock in at PkR18.3bn (EPS: PkR39.0) in 1QFY24: Pakistan State Oil (PSO) is expected to announce its 1QFY24 financial result on 20th October, where we expect the company to post PAT of PkR18.3bn (EPS: PkR39.0), higher by 14.0xYoY compared to LAT of PkR4.63bn (LPS: PkR9.85) in the quarter before. The said QoQ increase is majorly on the back of higher gross margins specifically on regulated products (MS/HSD) alongside significant inventory gains amid rising ex-refinery prices during the period. Company’s volumetric offtakes remained elevated as well, coming in at 1.91mn tons during ...

The Pump, (AKD Monthly Report, August 10' 2023)

FY23 stood as one of the abysmal years in the sector’s history, with total volumes clocking in at 16.6mn tons (down 26.5%YoY), 3 year lows, almost on par with offtakes witnessed back in the pandemic period of 16.3mn tons. Overall, the sector’s market cap has remained up by 6.3% CYTD, with the main board rising by 13% during the same period, resulting in the sector underperforming the broader market by 6.6%. In summary, the fallout witnessed throughout the outgoing fiscal year was majorly due to sharp depreciation of the local currency (prompting exchange losses and shortages), challenges relat...

Like most players in the sectors, PSO is also expected to deal with substantial losses on the back of falling ex-refinery prices, majorly due to declining international gasoline/ gasoil prices, resulting in local MS/HSD price being down by 10%/16% from their respective peaks during the quarter. We expect the company to record inventory losses of ~PkR7.9bn (PkR17/sh) for 4Q...
