Fauji Fertilizer Company Limited - Re-Initiating Coverage with PT of PKR 109/share; BUY

  • We re-initiate coverage on FFC with Jun-18 PT of PKR 109/share offering a massive capital upside of 34% along-with dividend yield of 10%.
  • Investors’ disappointment over exclusion of FFC from MSCI EM led to an underperformance of 11% against KSE-100 benchmark index - opening up valuations for investors to re-build position in the stock.
  • Despite oversupply situation, the company has sustained its market share of ~43%; going forward we believe with extensive dealership network the company will sustain its market leadership with market share hovering around 43-41%.
  • Furthermore, if company fully utilizes its export quota of 252Ktons, we believe inventory situation of the company would taper off by 58% while earnings can witness a further accretion of PKR 0.41/share.
  • FFC has accepted the offer of 30% strategic purchase of Thar Energy Limited (TEL) 330MW coal based power plant. On a sustainable USD IRR of 20%, the project is expected to add PKR 4.7/share to our PT (additional upside of +6% upside). The plant is expected to achieve its financial close by Sep-17.
