Fatima Fertilizer
Future sustainability looks promising
Event
Fatima Fertilizer’s (FATIMA) future sustainability looks promising, given the revamp of its urea plant, with the first phase likely to be complete in 4QCY15, as well as deleveraging and international diversification. This all takes place with the backdrop of a further easing in the interest rate and robust CAN/Urea margins will likely rerate our valuation upward. We reiterate our Outperform rating and raise our target price to Rs37.71 from Rs36.53.
Impact
Debottlenecking of ammonia plant: We see the first phase of debottlenecking - 105tpd out of 300tpd - to be completed by CY15 at a cost of US$58mn, with a total cost of debottlenecking to be US$140mn. The company says the latest machinery purchases have been made and we believe incremental ammonia production of 7% will improve gross margins by 160bps, translating into an EPS impact of Rs0.60 in CY16 and beyond.
Robust margins: Higher selling prices (except NP), rupee appreciation against the US dollar, with feedstock pegged to the US dollar, and a fall in phosphoric rock prices will bode well for company’s margins. In the short run, lower inventory and delayed shipment of imported urea may create a favourable pricing environment, in our view. However we acknowledge that a key risk to our assessment may come from pressure on prices due to approval of concessionary gas to EFERT.
Monetary easing plays favourably: The start of monetary easing will also play favourably for the company as it carries Rs27bn on its balance sheet as of 30 Sep. Our calculations suggest a 100bps cut will augment earnings by Rs183mn. The company’s debt to total assets has been reduced to 35%, which pave the way for its inclusion on the shariah-compliant list. However we downplay this case, given the future debt requirements for expansion.
Looking offshore: To get the benefit of lower gas prices and cheaper debt- raising through tax-exempted bonds, the company is planning to acquire a 35%/US$300m stake of the 2.6mn ton capacity Midwest Fertilizer Corporation in the US over a period of four years. We have not incorporated this in our valuation, as the deal is in its initial stages.
Earnings and target price revision
We raise our CY14 estimates by 4.5% and our CY15 by 3.4%. Our higher TP of Rs37.71, up from Rs36.53, reflects above expected earnings and reduction in cost of equity.
Price catalyst
12-month price target: Rs37.71 based on a DCF methodology.
Catalyst: Completion of ammonia plant revamping, price hike owing to delayed urea imports and international diversification
Action and recommendation
We reiterate our Outperform rating with a revised TP of Rs37.71/sh. Fatima trades at a CY14/15E P/E of 7.2/6.3x with D/Y of 7.7%.

Robust margins
Higher selling prices (except NP), PKR appreciation against the greenback (feedstock pegged to the US dollar) and a reduction in phosphoric rock prices will likely improve the company’s margins. During CY14, margins of CAN/Urea will likely improve by 77/80bps (even after incorporating incremental GIDC of PKR50/mmbtu on fuel stock) driven by higher selling prices (up ~5%YoY) and PKR appreciation (up 3.7% YoY). Despite lower NP prices (down 2% YoY) its margins would improve by 200bps on the back of lower Phosphoric rock prices (down 8.7% YoY). Benefits of Fatima’s diversified product mix are clearly visible in CY14, as the company allocated more ammonia to high-margin CAN and Urea products.
In the short term, lower urea inventory and delayed shipment (likely to arrive late in Dec) may jack up the prices. CAN/NP prices trend upwards in tandem with domestic Urea/DAP prices as seen in the past. Higher demand in coming months given disbursement of PKR5,000/acre subsidy for rice growers, reduction in oil prices and higher support price for wheat (PKR100/40 kg) will further strengthen our case. However, the key downside risk to our thesis may come from concessionary gas availability to EFERT.
