FFBL to post CY13 PAT of PKR 5.70bn (EPS: PKR 6.10)
n
Fauji Fertilizer Bin Qasim (FFBL) is expected to post PAT of PKR 5.70bn (EPS: PKR 6.10), higher by 32% YoY from CY12. Earnings for 4Q CY13 are likely to clock in at PKR 2.41bn (EPS: PKR 2.58) and we expect the company to announce final payout of PKR 2.75 per share taking total CY14 dividends to PKR 5.50 per share. While we expect urea offtake to decline by 20% YoY for CY13, rejuvenated level of DAP offtake is expected to garner pace for boosting topline. Despite DAP being the mainstay of FFBL, lopsided trend of primary margins, is estimated to inhibit the prospective growth in topline for CY13. Higher transport costs on the back of increase in fuel prices is likely to elevate distribution costs to PKR 185 per bag as compared to normal levels of PKR 148 per bag in CY12. Also, abysmal decline in other income by 48% YoY exudes further constraints on bottomline. At current levels, FFBL is trading at a CY14 PE of 6.8x offering a dividend yield of 13% and we reiterate our BUY stance on the scrip.

Fauji Fertilizer Bin Qasim (FFBL) is scheduled to announce its annual results for CY13 on Jan 2713. We expect the company to post PAT of PKR 5.70bn (EPS: PKR 6.10), higher by 32% YoY from CY12. According to our estimates, earnings for 4Q CY13 are likely to clock in at PKR 2.41bn (EPS: PKR 2.58) and we expect the company to announce final payout of PKR 2.75 per share taking total CY14 dividends to PKR 5.50. The hike in earnings is primarily due to better gas availability and easier pass-through of GIDC in CY13 as compared to the previous year. FFBL - Financial Highlights

DAP - the arterial earnings root While we expect urea offtake to decline by 20% YoY for CY13, rejuvenated level of DAP offtake is expected to garner pace for boosting topline. Urea prices have averaged at PKR 1,717 per bag for CY13 while urea production remained sluggish mainly on account of lower gas availability and winter gas load management experienced especially during Dec13 for 4Q CY13. On the other hand, despite DAP being the mainstay of FFBL,
lopsided trend of primary margins, averaging at USD 260 per MT, is estimated to inhibit the prospective growth in topline likely to have emanated from 28% YoY higher DAP sales of 785k tons for CY13. Consequently, topline is expected to clock in 15% higher to PKR 55.05bn in CY13 as compared to last year. Lower support from other income Hike in transport costs on the back of increase in fuel prices and higher DAP sales is likely to elevate distribution costs to PKR 185 per bag as compared to normal levels of PKR 148 per bag in CY12; propping up overall opex by 25% YoY to PKR 5.29bn for CY13. On the other hand, abysmal decline in other income by 48% YoY to PKR 539mn exudes further constraints on bottomline. Outlook With the feasibility study for the meat business coming through successfully and the wind energy projects taking approval, FFBL is likely to determinate some support to the bottomline. Moreover, the declining trend of phos-acid prices is likely to heave primary margins for the ongoing 1Q CY14. At current levels, FFBL is trading at a CY14 PE of 6.8x offering a dividend yield of 13% and we reiterate our BUY stance on the scrip.
