Lucky Cement Limited - Consolidating the Conglomerate (Short Report)

  • With its ongoing expansions, contribution from local cement operations to LUCK’s Consolidated Earnings is projected to come down from 80% in FY18 to 58% by FY22. We are thus switching to publishing consolidated financials from now on; our Jun-19 PT however remains unchanged at PKR625/share, as our valuations had already been reflecting LUCK’s ventures in other businesses.
  • With a 5 year CAGR of 18%, LUCK offers an enticing growth story mainly driven by its power venture i.e. LEPCL which will contribute around 25% to LUCK’s consolidated earnings from FY22.
  • In addition, LUCK also offers exceptional diversification as it also operates in consumer markets through ICI and thus safeguards itself against weak cement dynamics which dominates its profitability...
