1QFY19 EPS Expected to Grow by 33% QoQ to PKR 16.42

Pakistan Oilfields Limited (POL) is scheduled to announce its 1QFY19 result on October 12, 2018, where it is expected to post earnings growth of 33% QoQ to stand at PKR 4,660m (EPS: PKR 16.42). Minimal seismic activity and absence of any irrecoverable charge (booked in 4QFY18 on Joyamair Deep-1) are likely to reduce the exploration cost by 75% QoQ. This is expected to be the primary driver of sequential growth expected in the quarter. In 1QFY19, the company is likely to write off the cost associated with a dry well in Tal Block, Mamikhel Deep 1, which will have a negative earnings impact of PKR 1.11/share. On a YoY basis, steep currency devaluation and reversal in international crude prices are expected to take the earnings growth to 84% in 1QFY19.
