We initiate coverage on Petronet LNG Limited(Petronet) as a BUY with a Price Objective of Rs 151 (target PE of 11x
FY2013) over a period of 15-18 months. At CMP of Rs 132.1, the stock is trading at 13.6x and 9.6x its estimated earnings
for FY2012E & FY2013E representing a potential upside of ~13.6%. Petronet LNG is majorly engaged in the business of
LNG procurement, transportation and regasification. Burgeoning natural gas demand supply mismatch in the country
makes it inevitable that the additional demand would be met by imported LNG. Petronet LNG, with its Kochi terminal set
to commission in Q4FY12 and expansion at its Dahej terminal, is all set to benefit from the current scenario. In addition,
diversification plans into the power segment add further value to the company. We expect revenue & earnings growth of
26.1% & 36.5% CAGR respectively over the next three years.
Favourable natural gas demand and supply to augur well for PLNG
On the back of growing consumption, demand for natural gas is expected to
grow at a faster rate of 16.3% (5 year CAGR) to 381 mmscmd compared to
supply which is expected to grow at a 5 year CAGR of 6.8% to 202.9 mmscmd.
This burgeoning demand supply gap is expected to be met through LNG
imports and Petronet LNG with its expanded capacity is well placed to garner a
major portion of this incremental demand. We expect the revenues of Petronet
LNG to grow at a CAGR of 26.1% to Rs 21343.7 crore over the forecast
period.
Kochi terminal & Dahej expansion to drive volume growth
The USD 850 mn Kochi LNG terminal of 2.5 MMTPA capacity is expected to
commission in Q4FY12 which would be later expanded to 5.0 MMTPA by the
end of FY13. Kochi terminal can help serve the Southern market where the
landed cost of domestic gas is higher. The Dahej expansion to 12.5 MMTPA is
expected to commence by FY13 with an additional jetty at Dahej at a cost of
~USD 980 million. Both these projects are to funded in a 70:30 Debt to Equity
ratio. We expect the LNG volumes to grow from the 7.6 MMTPA in FY10 to
10.4 MMTPA in FY13.
LNG pricing not a major concern
Although the LNG pricing is linked to JCC, over the forecast period we do not
expect significant cost increases as there is a fixed formula for pricing the
sourced LNG. Also, with the company having back to back off-take
agreements, we do not foresee any risk in passing on any of the increased
costs. While the recent nuclear

Research governance and support in Singapore. Notes for a weary pedestrian
1. Yuri Anisimov, October 2015
Ability Factors Pte. Ltd.
Notes for a weary pedestrian. Non-
comprehensive, informal and biased
2. Strong Government
No corruption in a corporation
Lots of money and investments
Society is highly sophisticated
People are highly educated
Pace of change and development
phenomenal
Diversity of race, religion and culture
3.
4. Thinking of Singapore as a company building a brand,
rather than the country that it really is, sometimes
helps to make sense of it
Price factor: people will pay good money for a good
product when the benefit is tangible, or linked to
privilege and aspiration; there is a cultural aversion to
paying for ideas, expertise and consultants of all kinds
Singaporeans consider foreigners’ tenure temporary,
yet their presence is welcomed and work appreciated.
Approach as an opportunity to boost the local economy
and to achieve your goals
