Revising Target Price to PKR 88.00, Adopting Positive Stance

Engro Fertilizers Limited (EFERT) registered consolidated earnings of PKR 3,260m (EPS: PKR 2.44) for 2QCY18. Alongside results, the company also announced an interim dividend of PKR 4.00/share. The company’s earnings in 2QCY18 improved by 31.96% YoY despite lower volumetric sales of Urea due to higher selling prices and lower finance costs. We have revised our assumptions for upcoming period after incorporating i) company’s latest financials, ii) a recent increase in Urea and DAP prices, iii) increase in gas prices, and iv) PKR devaluation against USD. Our revised target price for June 2019 is PKR 88.00/share (previous target price for December 2018 was PKR 83.00/share), which offers an upside of 15.42% from the stock’s last closing price; hence, we are adopting a positive stance on the scrip.
