Pakistan Cement Sector - KOHC and PIOC Standing Out on Asset Valuation
- Despite eyeing a near term bearish outlook on offtakes, margins and profitability, the very cyclical nature of the Cement sector compels us to look through the downturn and analyze the listed companies on their Replacement Cost.
- Thanks to recent stock price declines and PKR devaluation, EV per ton of our Cement Universe currently stand in the range of USD 22-66 vs Replacement Cost of ~USD100 and 8 year average of USD 35-122;.
- KOHC and PIOC appear to be the most attractive priced, reflecting EV/ton of USD22 and USD35, respectively.
