Intermarket Pulse: Pakistan IPPs: Low dispatches offset positives in 3QFY18
- We expect IMS IPP Universe to post cumulative NPAT of PRs6.7bn in 3QFY18, down 3%YoY/3%QoQ. Lower dispatches (down 31%YoY) and 16% YoY higher finance cost is expected to offset the impact of expected high penal income and PKR depreciation.
- In case of HUBC, earnings are expected to be flattish despite steep decline in dispatch levels, courtesy lack of overhauling expenses. KAPCO’s earnings will be dragged by circular debt, while Nishat IPPs will likely book lower O&M savings.
- Nonetheless, NCPL and NPL may resume dividends in 3QFY18, each expected to pay PRs1.0/sh as a result of piecemeal payments by government. HUBC is expected to pay PRs2.0/sh, taking 9MFY18 payout to PRs5.0/sh.
