MUGHAL: Power woes to settle by FY19; upgrade to Buy


  • We revise up our TP for MUGHAL to PkR150/sh and upgrade our rating to Buy led by our expectation that its power constraints will be considerably resolved beyond FY18. Intermittent power supply was the single biggest impediment hampering MUGHAL’s sales/earnings growth despite construction boom in the country.
  • MUGHAL has planned to add a 19MW LNG-fired CPP by FY19, which will take total power supply at its disposal to 48MW. We believe this will enable the company to almost completely alleviate dependence on external billets and thereby protecting itself from impact of higher duty on billets.
  • Further positive triggers remain intact on the back of the BMR on the re-rolling facility, which we understand will lead to cost efficiencies. While we await clarity from management on nature and extent of these efficiencies, we highlight this as an upside trigger to our estimates.
