We ground our initial BUY rating for Energy Development Corporation (EDC)
on its favorable business environment and organic growth strategies on top
of stable, recurring cash flows. Using a WACC of 10.7% to discount its FCFF
and deducting the market value of debt, we arrive at an intrinsic value of Php
6.30, a 47.1% upside from its current share price.
Revenues up 16.9% due to newly acquired plants. The successful
acquisition and turnover of the Tongonan (112.5 MW) and Palinpinon I and
II (192.5 MW) plants last September 2009 for USD 220M (Php 10.75B)
coupled with planned improvements to increase utilization rates are
expected to boost revenues by Php 4.8B in 2010. In addition, the company
plans to build seven new plants to be completed from 2013 to 2021. We
expect the three plants commencing operations from 2013 to 2015 alone to
increase revenues by Php 4.0B or 13.0% in 2016.
Core operations in green energy to address power crisis. EDC’s core
business of generating green, cheap and sustainable energy places it at the
forefront of meeting the projected Philippine electricity shortage. We foresee
the steady growth of energy demand at 2.4% per year and shortfall in
industry exploration to spark an energy crisis by 2011. While new entrants
have begun penetrating the industry, we believe the company’s vertically-
integrated operations give it an edge to withstand competition.
Php 3.7B savings in 2010 as Renewable Energy Law (RE) takes effect.
Passage of the RE Law allows EDC to take advantage of lower corporate
income tax rates of 10.0%, a seven-year income tax holiday for new plants
and reduced royalty fee payments of 1.5% of gross revenues.
Foreign currency exposure down 49.5% to Php 11.3B by 2010. The
company’s reduced exposure to foreign currency denominated loans will be
achieved through its Peso debt issuances in 2009 and maturity of Php 12M
Miyazawa II Yen bond in 2010. We believe this reflects the company’s effort
to manage its exchange rate risk after a Php 9.3B foreign exchange loss in
2008 nearly wiped out profits. Other risks are expected to be mitigated
through the company’s fundamental strengths and strategies.
Defensive play with Php 11.1B recurring cash flows. The company’s
stable, recurring cash flows establish it as a defensive play. This is reflected
in its solid stock market performance amidst volatile economic conditions.

With a population of almost 100 million people and annual economic growth averaging between 6 to 7%, the Philippines’ is anticipated to continue to have a robust energy demand. The Government’s refusal to subsidize power, heavy reliance on expensive fossil fuel imports, and added transmission cost because of the country’s archipelagic configuration have resulted in electricity prices being among the highest in the world. Thus, renewable energy projects present a viable business opportunity to resource developers.
The business community believes that the introduction of retail competition and open access is the logical move to bring the power industry to the next level and establish a competitive market structure. There is a need to further diversify the energy mix and the government is banking on renewable energy to wean the country from its dependence on fossil fuel. The government through the Renewable Energy Act of 2008 (“RE Act”) sought to address the issues on the absence of a ready and guaranteed market for the output of RE power plants and the recovery of investments through electricity tariffs.

Renewable energy realities in the united states finalDeepa Sanyal
Renewable energy sources generated 11.73% of US energy in early 2011, projected to reach 15% by 2035 if federal subsidies expire as planned. In 2012, focus will shift to state policies like renewable portfolio standards as federal action is unlikely in an election year. Key federal incentives that support renewable projects expire in 2012-2016, so the industry outlook is cautious without extensions. Solar continues advancing towards grid parity while targeting new applications, and geothermal and biomass also see some growth potential depending on policy clarity.

Your task is to evaluate the available evidence on the social, emotional, psychological, biological, and
behavioural changes that occur during adolescence and emerging adulthood that may explain their
increased vulnerability to specific problems and/or behaviour choices.
Of course, not all adolescents engage in problematic behaviour or make unwise life-style choices,
therefore, when discussing the possible causes of change occurring in this age group you should
consider any distinctive cultural practices or cultural beliefs that may act as protective mechanisms for
young people. Arnett (2018) argues that an interrogation of cultural beliefs and their influence is
necessary in order to gain a fuller understanding of developmental changes in adolescents and emerging
adults.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Corporation (EDC)
on its favorable business environment and organic growth
strategies on top
of stable, recurring cash flows. Using a WACC of 10.7% to
discount its FCFF
and deducting the market value of debt, we arrive at an intrinsic
value of Php
6.30, a 47.1% upside from its current share price.
Revenues up 16.9% due to newly acquired plants. The
successful
acquisition and turnover of the Tongonan (112.5 MW) and
Palinpinon I and
II (192.5 MW) plants last September 2009 for USD 220M (Php
10.75B)
coupled with planned improvements to increase utilization rates
are
expected to boost revenues by Php 4.8B in 2010. In addition,
the company
plans to build seven new plants to be completed from 2013 to
2021. We
2. expect the three plants commencing operations from 2013 to
2015 alone to
increase revenues by Php 4.0B or 13.0% in 2016.
Core operations in green energy to address power crisis. EDC’s
core
business of generating green, cheap and sustainable energy
places it at the
forefront of meeting the projected Philippine electricity
shortage. We foresee
the steady growth of energy demand at 2.4% per year and
shortfall in
industry exploration to spark an energy crisis by 2011. While
new entrants
have begun penetrating the industry, we believe the company’s
vertically-
integrated operations give it an edge to withstand competition.
Php 3.7B savings in 2010 as Renewable Energy Law (RE) takes
effect.
Passage of the RE Law allows EDC to take advantage of lower
corporate
income tax rates of 10.0%, a seven-year income tax holiday for
new plants
and reduced royalty fee payments of 1.5% of gross revenues.
Foreign currency exposure down 49.5% to Php 11.3B by 2010.
The
company’s reduced exposure to foreign currency denominated
loans will be
achieved through its Peso debt issuances in 2009 and maturity
of Php 12M
Miyazawa II Yen bond in 2010. We believe this reflects the
3. company’s effort
to manage its exchange rate risk after a Php 9.3B foreign
exchange loss in
2008 nearly wiped out profits. Other risks are expected to be
mitigated
through the company’s fundamental strengths and strategies.
Defensive play with Php 11.1B recurring cash flows. The
company’s
stable, recurring cash flows establish it as a defensive play.
This is reflected
in its solid stock market performance amidst volatile economic
conditions.

7. EDC is the largest producer of geothermal energy in the
Philippines. It is
primarily engaged in generating steam and electricity for sale to
various
distributors through its operations of steam fields and power
plants in five
geothermal service contract areas.
Incorporated in 1976, EDC is formerly a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Philippine
National Oil Company (PNOC), a Government Owned and
Controlled Corpora-
tion (GOCC). It held its Initial Public Offering (IPO) in
December 2006. The
company was fully privatized in November 2007 when Red
Vulcan Holdings
Corporation, a First Gen (FG) subsidiary, acquired a 60.0%
controlling interest.
The company generates revenues from electricity sales
(geothermal and
hydroelectric), steam sales, and third-party geothermal and
drilling services.
Serving as the backbone of the company’s operations are two
steam fields
servicing National Power Corporation (NPC) power plants with
a capacity of
150 MW, and 10 geothermal power plants and related steam
fields with a total
installed capacity of 1,049 MW.
EDC is also venturing into other renewables through its recent
acquisition of a
60.0% stake in FG Hydro, which operates the 112.5 MW
Pantabangan-Masi-
way hydro plant in Nueva Ecija.
8. Industry Analysis
WIDE PROSPECTS FOR GEOTHERMAL ENERGY
The Pursuit of Clean and Sustainable Energy
The pressing threats of climate change and fossil fuel depletion
have shifted
the world’s focus to renewable sources of power, one of which
is geothermal
energy. Geothermal energy has become increasingly attractive
for several
reasons: (1) It is virtually inexhaustible due to its fundamental
dependence on
the earth’s natural supply of heat and water; (2) Geothermal
power plants are
among the most reliable generating plants, running on average
at 90-98% of
the time compared to coal-fired plants that run only 65-75% of
the time; and (3)
Despite the high upfront capital investments required to
construct geothermal
power plants, the levelized costs of geothermal plants are
significantly lower
than that of plants that run on fossil fuels and other renewables.
As one of the cleanest and cheapest alternative sources of
power, geothermal
energy can be expected to play a major role in the global energy
supply in the
future.
A Vast Pool of Untapped Potential
Situated in the Pacific Ring of Fire, the Philippines has emerged
as the second
9. largest producer of geothermal power in the world. While
geothermal power
currently constitutes 18.0% of the country’s energy mix, the
government
estimates that less than half of the country’s geothermal
resources have been
tapped. Approximately 2,600 MW out of 4,500 MW of energy
has yet to be
explored. With electricity generation from geothermal sources
growing at 5.0%
per year, a rate more than twice that of the total energy industry
in the
Philippines, we see plenty of leg room for development of this
resource.

TIMELY GOVERNMENT INITIATIVES CREATE FAVORABL
E ENVIRONMENT
In light of the impending energy crisis, the government has been
encouraging
private investment in RE projects through various forms of
legislation.
Restructured Energy Market Opens Windows of Opportunity
The passage of the Electric Power Industry Reform Act
(EPIRA) set into
motion the deregulation of the power industry and the
privatization of NPC-
owned enterprises. While transitioning into an open market
introduces
competition, we believe that the barriers to entry in the
geothermal industry are
sufficiently high to deter new players from making significant
headway in the
market. Instead, this restructuring has served as an opportunity
for EDC to
13. expand and further vertically integrate its operations by
purchasing NPC’s
power plants available for bid. In 2008, EDC successfully won
the bid for three
power plants in Visayas – Tongonan, Palinpinon I and II – all of
which are
expected to boost revenues substantially beginning 2010.
Another two power
plants situated on an EDC steam field in Bacon-Manito
(BacMan), Albay, will
also be up for privatization in January 2010.
Renewable Energy Plays Prominent Role in DOE Plans
DOE has made it a top priority to lessen the country’s
dependence on imported
fuels as part of its thrust for 60.0% Philippine energy self-
sufficiency by 2010.
This has accelerated the development of indigenous renewable
sources,
creating a favorable environment for a pure-play company like
EDC.
By 2013, the government envisions the country to be the
number one producer
of geothermal energy in the world. It has set a target installation
of an
additional 1,200 MW of geothermal capacity, 50.0% or 610 MW
of which is
said to be situated within EDC contract areas. With the
government
aggressively bidding-out areas for exploration and providing
generous fiscal
and non-fiscal incentives for RE companies, EDC stands to gain
from such
favorable circumstances.
14. ECONOMIC FORCES DRIVING GROWTH MOMENTUM
No Slowdown in Energy Consumption
Driven by an annual 4.3% increase in GDP and a 1.5% growth
in population,
energy consumption is expected to increase steadily at
approximately 2.4%
every year up to 2030. We expect this trend to remain resilient
to increases in
oil prices and currency devaluations as energy demand has
proven to be
insensitive to sudden price hikes as long as economic activities
measured by
GDP continue to prosper.
Power Shortage to Sweep the Nation
Certain provinces in the Visayas are already experiencing
rotating blackouts
during peak hours because the supply of electricity in the region
is not enough
to meet demand. Demand is also expected to outpace supply in
Mindanao by
2010 and in Luzon by 2011. Due to this disconnect between
growing demand
and a shortfall in exploration and retirement of decades-old
plants, a power
crisis is expected to sweep the nation in two years. EDC’s
upgrades of existing
power plants and new projects in Visayas and Mindanao are
expected to
benefit from this supply shortage.
Soaring Oil Prices a Recipe for Disaster
15. With 54.0% of the country’s power relying on fossil fuels such
as coal and oil,
the rising oil prices and declining oil reserves will further
aggravate the power
crisis as these inputs are primarily sourced from other countries.
If the
government does not look for alternatives to rely on, this will
spell the formula
for a national energy crisis.
With the increasing demand, shortfall in supply, and towering
oil prices, EDC
will become increasingly relevant as the Philippines looks to the
company to
increase the country’s installed capacity of renewable energy
sources.

The enactment of EPIRA also led to the creation of a Wholesale
Electricity
Spot Market (WESM) in Luzon in 2006. Prior to WESM, a large
portion of all
electricity produced was sold solely to NPC at pre-determined
prices. WESM
18. now provides for two different mechanisms for generation
companies to sell
electricity to private distributors: spot market or bilateral
contracts.
In the spot market, energy sources are dispatched according to
cost, from
lowest to highest, until electricity demand is satisfied. The low
generating cost
of geothermal energy puts it at the forefront of the dispatch
mechanism during
non-peak hours and second during peak hours.
Generation companies can also opt to enter into bilateral
contracts with private
entities in which prices and volumes are negotiated six months
prior to
delivery. This ensures a stable supply of electricity and
relatively fixed prices
for distributors.
By virtue of geothermal energy’s low cost, both mechanisms
practically
guarantee that all geothermal energy produced is sold. Pricing
however, may
slightly differ as energy sold in the spot market is priced at
market clearing
price (the price of the last energy dispatched, usually oil-
based), while contract
prices are based on effective grid rates for electricity. Either
way, both rates are
at a significant premium to the cost estimate of geothermal
energy.
Renewable Energy Law Reinforces Government Commitment
19. The recent RE Act is expected to accelerate the exploration and
development
of geothermal resources in the Philippines through the reduction
of taxes and
fees remitted to the government. Such fiscal incentives create
an attractive
business environment for EDC to operate in the years to come.
Company Analysis
STRONG HEAD START AND EXPERTISE TO WITHSTAND
COMPETITION
With over 30 years of experience, EDC is in a prime position to
maximize the
benefits of the growing energy demand and favorable
legislation. Alongside
other global industry leaders such as Ormat, Chevron, Enel, and
Calpine,
EDC is the only Philippine company to have achieved full
vertical integration
from the development to the operation of steam fields. This
gives EDC
nationwide economies-of-scale, which fortifies a significant
barrier-to-entry
against new players. In addition, it has solidified its position as
the only com-
pany in the Philippines to have a business portfolio covering
geothermal
steam fields and power plants.
FACILITY UPGRADES IMPROVE PLANT UTILIZATION
Currently, 58.0% of the company’s facilities, equivalent to
694.4 MW installed
capacity, are operating at high utilization rates ranging from
87.7% to 97.0%.
20. EDC is continuously undertaking facility upgrades to improve
efficiency and
increase output: Php 65.4M Leyte Steam Augmentation was
completed in
2009 Q1; augmentation projects are lined up for the Northern
Negros facility;
and upgrades of the newly-acquired Tongonan and Palinpinon I
and II power
plants are planned for 2010.

GROWING OPERATIONS TO MEET ENERGY DEMAND
In 2009, EDC increased its installed capacity through the
transfer of the
Mindanao I and II Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) plants and the
former NPC-
owned Tongonan, Palinpinon I and II plants. Seven new projects
are in the
25. pipeline to meet the projected growth in electricity demand and
are expected
to strengthen the company’s position in the open market ahead.
Aside from
these, the company’s other growth potentials are its targeted
expansion in
drilling services, initial foray into the global arena with its
satellite office in
Indonesia and wind project in Ilocos Norte.
SUSTAINABLE FUTURE FOR EDC AND THE COMMUNITY
Aside from being a pure play renewable energy company, EDC
extends its
dedication to social and environmental development through its
various
projects. It recently bagged the Grand Anvil Award for its
“Harmonizing
Environment and Technology” communication plan regarding
its steam
augmentation project at the buffer zone of the Mt. Kanlaon
Natural Park.
FINANCIAL STABILITY GROUNDS EDC ON SOLID PLATF
ORM
Seven out of ten EDC power plants are still operating under
minimum take-or-
pay arrangements, thus giving short- to medium-term stability
on the
company’s cash flows. The recent Aaa-rated Php 12B
oversubscribed bond
offering in November 2009 highlights strong investor
confidence. In the
second quarter of 2009, EDC also declared a 25.0% common
stock dividend
26. increasing its outstanding shares from 15B to 18.75B. It also
increased the
authorized capital from Php 15B to Php 30B.
Financial Analysis
NEW PLANTS AND IMPROVEMENTS SPARK REVENUE GR
OWTH
Company revenues are expected to grow steadily at 5.9% over
the next five
years behind rising billed energy volume. This rises primarily
with capacity
expansion as energy demand far exceeds supply. The recent
acquisition of the
Tongonan-Palinpinon plants (305 MW) and planned capital
expenditures to
improve their efficiency are expected to boost revenues by Php
4.8B or 16.9%
in 2010. Plans to improve utilization rates, such as the Leyte
Augmentation
Project (60 MW) among others are also expected to supplement
this. Although
there is a slight slowdown in revenue growth in 2012 due to the
expiration of
some take-or-pay agreements, new geothermal power plants in
Nasulo (20
MW), Tanawon (50 MW) and Mindanao (50 MW) are expected
to more than
offset this with revenues of Php 4.0B or 13.0% in 2016. These
projects keep
EDC at the forefront of meeting the growing energy demand in
the country.
LOW‐COST STRUCTURE BOOSTS MARGINS
Operating costs of geothermal energy are expected to remain
27. low relative to
other energy sources. Major components of these costs include
personnel
costs and repairs and maintenance. EBIT margins are projected
to remain
stable at an average of 50.0%. In addition, fiscal incentives
through the RE
Law are projected to increase net profits by a total of Php 3.7B
in 2010 from the
special corporate tax rate of 10.0% and changes in royalty fee
computations.
STEADY CASH FLOWS KEEP EARNINGS QUALITY HIGH
Healthy streams of operating cash flows of Php 14.2B to Php
19.0B are
expected to be generated from operating income over the
projection period.
This is supported by an earnings quality ratio (OCF per EBIT)
projected to
remain at an average of 90.0% over the forecast period. These
stable and
recurring cash flows prove the value of the company’s earnings.

STRONG BALANCE SHEET
EDC’s expansion plans are supported by a healthy cash position
and a robust
balance sheet. The current ratio is maintained at close to 1.00 to
provide
ample resources to satisfy current liabilities. The debt ratio is
kept at close to
60.0%, a safe distance from the 70.0 to 30.0% debt ratio
required by debt
covenants. The maturity of the bullet Miyazawa II bond in 2010
will significantly
reduce the debt level and provide the company with sufficient
room to obtain
fresh debt capital to finance future expansion plans. The
recently approved
increase in authorized capital from Php 15B to Php 30B is also
expected to
provide more room to obtain financing in future years.
REDUCED FOREIGN CURRENCY EXPOSURE
Since being privatized, the company’s foreign-currency
denominated loans
carried over from government ownership have resulted to heavy
foreign
exchange losses and substantial net income volatility. The
company’s foreign
exchange exposure will decline due to the Php 12B bond
issuance and the
31. bullet maturity of the Miyazawa II Yen-denominated bond
(approximately Php
12B) in 2010. The proportion of Peso-denominated loans in the
debt financing
mix will increase from 9.0% in 2008 to 68.7% in 2010, reducing
vulnerability to
foreign exchange losses.
Valuation
DISCOUNTED CASH FLOW MODEL
Recurring Earnings Lead to Stable Cash Flows
We projected EDC’s revenues on a per-plant per-year basis until
2031, when
most Geothermal Service Contracts (GSCs) end. We used
escalation factors
to determine prices, while DOE projections, current market
share data, plant
capacities and utilization rates were applied to establish
volume. We expect
EDC to maintain its cost structure, driven mainly by revenues
and asset
acquisitions, except for some notable changes, such as the
elimination of
BOT fees. EDC enjoys strong recurring earnings and cash flows
which put it
on a defensive play against local macro fundamentals.

RE Law Savings Lift Price Target
Under the RE Law, the company is entitled to a preferential tax
treatment of
10.0% on income before taxes and lowered royalty fees of 1.5%
of gross
revenues. These fiscal incentives lift the intrinsic value by Php
2.83 or 128.0%
over the target price arising from recurring earnings.
New Plants Drive Value Further
EDC plans to build seven new plants from 2013 to 2021 with a
combined
34. annualized practical capacity of 472 GWh by 2014 and 1,887
GWh by 2031,
leading to an upside of Php 1.29 or 58.0% of the base value
from recurring
earnings. This also takes into account the seven-year income tax
holiday these
plants enjoy because of the RE Law.
Continued Operations into the Future
Since EDC’s organic growth will roll out beyond 2014, we have
projected its
financial performance, position and cash flows year-on-year
until 2031, when
its GSCs expire. During construction from 2012 to 2021, its
capital
expenditures will take up as much as 3.6% of operating cash
flows.
We impute a terminal value by projecting 2031 cash flows into
perpetuity
considering the company’s continuing ownership and operation
of its power
plants. Only Php 0.87 or 13.8% of our current intrinsic value
arises from the
terminal value. The terminal growth assumption of 4.4% at 2031
for FCFF is
based on the most recent 10-year growth of nominal GDP.
We ground our BUY rating on the unique combination of these
business
environment opportunities and the company’s new projects.
PRICE RELATIVE ESTIMATES
EDC Standing Out Among Peers
35. Among Philippine utilities, EDC is most closely comparable to
Aboitiz Power,
which also engages in the renewable energy generation
business. EDC’s P/E
ratio, currently at 10.4x, lies close to Aboitiz’ 11.8x. Its P/E
ratio also fares well
against other Asian utilities. Although the company’s P/E of
10.4x is above the
average of 7.3x for Asian energy companies, the company’s
distribution of
special cash dividends over regular dividends at 30.0% of
recurring earnings
provides a healthy return for investors and justifies its current
price. All these
support our BUY recommendation for the stock. (We use
recurring earnings
as a substitute for net profit as we believe this is a better
indicator of projected
performance.)

Risks
OPERATIONAL RISKS
Open Market Welcomes Competition
Creating an open-access energy sector poses a threat of
increased competi-
tion in the industry. We expect the company’s expertise and
strong financial
capabilities to equip EDC to win government contract bids in
the future and
provide a distinct advantage against new players.
38. Natural Occurrences Disrupt Plant Efficiency
Past experience has shown that natural occurrences, such as
typhoons and
unfavorable geological incidents, could cause significant
downtime and failure
in affected plants. These could result in unforeseen drops in
actual energy
delivered. The current portfolio of widely-spread power plants,
as well as an
Enterprise Risk Management system, is expected to address this
risk.
Value Chain Bottlenecks Limit Energy Delivery
Failure of external units in the value chain, such as the
transmission lines, may
taper delivered energy as supply is limited by the capacity of
these units. The
recent privatization of this sector will improve the coverage and
dependability
of its lines that should provide support to EDC’s growth
strategies.
Unsuccessful Exploration Projects Slow Growth
While most of its exploration projects in the past have been
successful, there is
no guarantee for continued success. This could slow company
growth.
However, in the medium term, we believe this will not be a
significant issue
because EDC’s seven geothermal projects for 2011 to 2023 have
already
completed exploration.
39. Operational Failures Cause Downtime
Each facility contributes significant amount of revenues. Labor
and equipment
problems may cause failure of one unit and significantly
decrease earnings,
such as the Php 356M loss incurred in 2008. EDC’s regular
upgrades of its
facilities are expected to lower this risk.
Terrorist Attacks Threaten Plant Operations
Terrorist or militant attacks can halt operations where steam
fields and power
plant operations are located. These may cause asset damage,
temporary
shutdown and loss of investor confidence. To mitigate this risk,
EDC has
adopted security measures in its plants to prevent armed
hostilities.
Price Relative Price Estimates Lie Close to Intrinsic Value
We also use industry averages of price relative ratios to forecast
2010 target
share price. Our intrinsic value of Php 6.30 derived from our
FCFF model
falls within the range of prices from Php 5.70 – Php 7.10 per
share obtained
from price relative estimates. This establishes the consistency
and reliability
of our intrinsic value estimates.
Solid Stock Performance since IPO
40. Since its privatization in December 2006, EDC’s stock has
performed well
relative to the Philippine Composite. Its trading volume has
been stable ever
since its IPO despite the onset of the recent financial crisis.
This is also
reflected in the above-average performance compared to other
Philippine and
Asian utilities.

CREDIT RISK |
Possible NPC Default on Numerous Obligations
Almost 60.0% of EDC’s installed capacity is still sold to the
National Power
Corporation (NPC) through take-or-pay agreements. The
company may have
to deal with NPC’s sudden default on its obligations. However,
45. through its 30
years of operations, EDC has never experienced such default.
NPC obligations
are also backed by the national government.
.
POLITICAL RISK | Political Instability Rattles Investors’ Confi
dence
Transition into the new administration after the May 2010
elections may pose
instability issues. Changes in policy could hamper the
company’s development
or affect investor sentiment. Still, the looming energy crisis
proves EDC’s role
in the government’s plans despite the change in leadership.
REGULATORY RISK |
Contract Renewal Uncertainty Endangers Profit Stability
Core operations have been profitable, a big part due to its steam
field
operations, which are subject to 20-year GSC granted by
government. Upon
expiration, renewal of the GSCs is not guaranteed. The
expiration of most
contracts though, is not until 2031 and we find the company’s
strong track
record and expertise to influence government to renew the
contract with EDC.
MARKET RISK | Potential Rise in Interest Rates Create Fundin
g Risks
46. Considering its reliance on financing through borrowings, the
company is
exposed to the risk that it may be unable to obtain new loans to
refinance
existing loans at favorable interest rate levels. The company’s
recent bond
issuance that received Aaa rating, however, is proof of creditor
trust in the
company and should allow it to obtain relatively favorable
interest rates in
obtaining future debt financing.
EXCHANGE RATE RISK | Foreign Currency
Loans Cause Fluctuating Debt Repayments
The company’s foreign-currency denominated loans, carried
over from its prior
operations as a GOCC, depict poor matching of cash inflows in
pesos and
outflows in Yen or Dollars. Hence, depreciation of the Peso
relative to the
Dollar or the Yen will significantly increase the Peso value of
these obligations,
leading to high and unpredictable cash outflows. To mitigate
this risk, the
company is actively securing more Peso-denominated loans and
has been
hedging its foreign currency exposures.
ACCOUNTING RISK | EDC May Depart from IFRIC 12
EDC has adopted IFRIC Interpretation 12 – Service Concession
Arrangements
to account for its steam fields and power plants in line with its
operations of the
regulated energy value chain. However, we recognize the risk
47. of a sudden
change in applicable accounting rule. Since the company owns
the power
plants and is not under the obligation of handing these back to
the government,
it may not qualify for IFRIC 12. While such treatment will have
some effect on
earnings, this is not expected to affect cash flows significantly.
Scenario Analysis
We consider the aforementioned risks in developing different
scenarios to
assess the vulnerability of the stock price to these market
conditions.
UPSIDE POTENTIAL UPON CONTRACT RENEWAL
We look into the regulatory risk the company faces. In the base
case, we
assume that EDC’s contracts over the steam fields are not
renewed after
they expire in 2031. Here, EDC needs to source steam from a
third party to
supply its power plants. If the GSCs are renewed, the company
will continue
to produce steam internally and stands to gain an upside
potential of 27.0%
over the base case.

MINIMAL IMPACT OF NON‐IFRIC 12 ACCOUNTING POLIC
Y
We also consider the possibility that the company fails to meet
the
requirements of IFRIC 12. We do not foresee a significant
effect on EDC’s
intrinsic value as IFRIC 12 mainly covers the immediate
recognition of
noncash revenues upon construction. This is reflected in the
minimal
decrease in share price from Php 6.30 to Php 6.27 due to the
minimal tax
effects on earnings.
INTRINSIC VALUE TO WITHSTAND NEGATIVE CONDITIO
NS
Finally, we test the financial consequences of certain risks
through a
scenario analysis of key variables.
We observe a pessimistic case where we take into account a
decrease in
market share resulting from increased competition in the open
market and
low utilization rates due to plant shutdown or unforeseen
49. events. These
variables are expected to take a toll on our revenue projections.
These can
be aggravated by unpredicted maintenance expenditures or labor
problems,
which substantially increase cash outflows. These operational
issues could
be coupled with an environment of currency depreciation and
rising interest
rates due to a rating downgrade of either the country or the
company.
An optimistic scenario of continued company dominance, high
efficiency
measures and favorable business climate has also been
considered. This
analysis gives a range of values which proceeds from a low of
Php 4.80 per
share to a high of Php 7.90. Under these circumstances, we
maintain our
BUY rating for EDC reflecting both the stability and potency
inherent in its
cash flows.

APPENDIX C – CONTRACTS
The power industry has long been regulated by the government,
resulting in several long‐term contractual arrangements existing
between EDC and various government entities. Two particular k
inds of contracts significantly affect the company’s operations:
(1)
GSCs give EDC the right to extract steam from steam fields (als
o known as geothermal service areas) for a period of 25
years. In return, EDC remits to the government royalty fees com
puted based on a percentage of steam sales. The last of
these contracts will expire by 2031 and we assume that they will
not be renewed for our base case.
(2)
Sales agreements with NPC, a government‐owned and controlle
d corporation, impose pre‐determined prices and volumes
with regard to EDC’s steam and electricity sales. These agreeme
nts however, are slowly being replaced by bilateral con‐
tracts and spot market sales to private companies as part of the
privatization of the energy industry. The table below illu‐
strates the transition from EDC’s current contracts with NPC to
spot market contracts which it plans to enter into in the fu‐
ture.

SMFG Group has recorded adequate provisions with respect to
litigation arising out of normal business operations. The SMFG

Valuation Model
· A full Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) model is NOT required
for this report.
· A target price evaluation is NOT required for this report
You could use the simplest evaluation methods, such as the
comparable valuation multiples (P/E, P/B). If the company pays
stable dividends, you could also use the dividend discount
method. More sophisticated methods, such as the free cash flow
to firm (FCFF) or free cash flow to equity (FCFE) methods can
be also used (although not required) in this analysis.
· Comparable valuation multiples (P/E, P/B). A valuation model
will help investors to determine if is SMFG’s stock is a good
buy. The valuation multiple is calculated by dividing stock
price (P) by earnings per share (EPS). A company with a high
P/E ratio is trading at a higher price per dollar of earnings than
the industry and is overvalued. And a company with a low P/E
ratio is trading at a lower price per dollar of EPS and is
considered undervalued.
· https://www.investopedia.com/terms/r/relative-valuation-
model.asp
· SMFG’s stock price is 8.17 with an Earnings Per Share of
0.892. This gives us a PE ratio of 9.15.
· The Price-to-Book ratio is used to compare the stock market’s
value to its book value. It is calculated by dividing the current
closing price of the stock by the latest quarter’s book value per
share where the book value per share is equals the difference
between total assets and total liabilities divided by the total
number of shares. SMFG’s current closing price of their is stock
is $8.16 or. The total assets as of 2017, for the fiscal year ended
70. at March 31st is $1,715,436,000 while total liabilities is
$1,622,262,000. Capital stock is $20,981,000. This would give
us a book value per share of $4.44Price-to-Book ratio is roughly
¥181.71 or $1.61.
