Siddiqsons Tin Plate Limited - Can Foray into CRC Disrupt Sector Dynamics?

  • STPL is the latest player to announce entry into CRC segment with a capacity of 200ktpa to vertically integrate it with its existing downstream segment of tinplate and cans manufacturing. The plant is expected to commission during 4QFY20.
  • STPL’s CRC capacity has increased the risk of oversupply as existing capacity expansions of 930ktpa are slated to come online during 2018 taking industry capacity to 1.7mntpa this year and 1.9mntpa by the end of FY20. Moreover the risk of slowdown in domestic demand growth, with expected dip in GDP growth, may aggravate the dynamics (post FY20) as there is now less room for domestic industry to eat market share of imports (latter accounted for a mere ~30% share in FY17).
  • As per Management Guidance, STPL’s FY21 earnings are projected to jump 261%YoY to PKR578mn (Fully diluted EPS: PKR2.52), translating into FY21F Right Adjusted PE of 7.6x (from FY19F PE of 26.7x) – considerably higher when compared to Peer Valuations.
