A volatile week for the market where the KSE-100 index touched a low/high of 37,101.3/38,564.4pts closing at 37,926pts driven by expectations surrounding monetary poli-

cy with further assistance gained from release of current account position. To recall, the coun-try posted US$99mn current account surplus in Oct’19 after a gap of more than four years (4MFY19: US$1.5bn vs. US$5.6bn in the corresponding period last year). Expectations of rate

cut died soon as the latest TBill auction witnessed a marginal uptick in yields (3M/12M: +30/46bps). Amongst other news flows, i) Former PM was allowed to travel abroad for treat-

Pakistan Economy: Tomato-flation kills early easing prospects!, (AKD Daily, Nov 22, 2019)

The Monetary Policy Committee of the SBP – scheduled to meet later today – is likely to keep policy rate on hold, considering weak FX buffers (import cover of mere 1.8months, estimated NIR: -US$13.2bn) and elevated inflation readings over the medium term (next 3M avg. CPI: 11.81%YoY).

For Nov’19, we expect the National CPI inflation to jump to 12.34%YoY vs. 11.04%YoY in Oct’19 and 5.70% in Nov’18. This is primarily driven by food inflation (18.5%YoY) and reversal of high base effect, where the former rises following an exorbitant increase in tomato and flour prices due to supply shock (cumulatively contributing 61% in sequential increase).

While the latest trends indicate a reversal in tomato and flour prices following the authorities’ intervention, near term inflation outlook depends on how quickly the impact of supply shock fades away. We project headline inflation to remain elevated over the medium term (next 3M avg. CPI: 11.81%) aided both by soft base and monthly utility price adjustments.

Pakistan Cement: FO generation is back in the game, (AKD Daliy, Nov 21,2019)

Domestic FO prices are falling in-line with global trends as IMO2020 imparts its magic, capping the allowed limit of sulfur in shipping fuels to 0.5% against previous limit of 3.5%, resulting in expected decline in global demand to 1.55mnbpd against 2.86mnbpd in CY19.

This decline is causing a shift in power generation preferences where FO based power genera-tion now stands cheaper than the grid while closely competing with natural gas. We opine, a continued decline in FO prices can allow power generation on FO to be cheaper than natural gas.

For cement manufacturers, Punjab-based players can turn out to be significant beneficiaries in the current scenario, where increasing RLNG prices forced them to prefer the grid. We esti-mate DGKC to save PkR8/bag on production at Kalar Kahar while MLCF and FCCL are expected to save PkR3/bag.

Among other potential beneficiaries, we highlight LUCK’s Pezu’s plant and DGKC’s South palnt with the former expected to face gas shortages in winter while for latter, decreasing FO prices can result in FO based power generation being cheaper than KE tariff.

In this backdrop, we believe players like LUCK, MLCF and DGKC will continue to enjoy an ad-vantage over others after already selling well above their capacity based shares in 1QFY20, capitalizing on low cost of production in an environment of price competition where decline in FO prices can provide further impetus to these players.

Pakistan Energy: HSFO cracks tank HSD MS make a comeback, (AKD Daily, Nov 20, 2019)

Oct’19 rounds out the culmination of a watershed mark for international refining margins, with MS/HSD/HSFO crack to Arab Light for the month averaging US$+3.90/+11.39/-18.82/bbl below vs. 1QFY20 averages +3.2/+11.5/-6.5/bbl where HSFO shows a clear break downward as IMO 2020 rules and slowing demand from marine bunkering worsen cracks

FY20TD average cracks of light distillates HSD/MS averaging at US$+11.5/+3.5/bbl firming their spreads (vs. 4QFY19 average of +8.9/+1.7/bbl) and HSFO cracks worsening to average -9.56/bbl (vs. 4QFY20 average of -9.4/bbl) tanking to US$-18.8/bbl below Arab Light crude during Oct’19, contrasting the significant divergence between light vs. heavy distillate prices

Crude prices have remained tethered to a narrow threshold of US$55-65/bbl while recovering sharply from any supply shocks as excess capacity in OPEC markets, heightened trade tensions and soft demand from emerging markets keep oil markets slightly over supplied

Monitoring the impact of IMO 2020 through HSFO 180 CST commodity futures contracts we highlight the significant downtrend indicated by lower HSFO futures prices for delivery con-tracts during 1QFY20 (lower by US$101.3/mt on average) extending to CY20, indicating a peri-od of extended decline in soon to be phased out, high Sulphur variant of FO still used for pow-er generation domestically (see: IMO-2020 can be a 'lucky break' for FO IPPs, Mar 28, 2019)

While refiners remain on the firing block (downtrend in GRMs for FO), based on its slow and steady operational performance (holding on to market share), we believe APL can capitalize on a possible revival in private sector (captive power) and IPP bulk sales.

Pak Economy: Current Account gives a green light to Macro Consolidation, (AKD Daily, Nov 19, 2019)

Latest SBP data on external account show marked improvement in the current account bal-ance, with the country running a current account surplus of US$99mn in Oct’19 after 49months compared to CAD of US$284mn in the preceding month and US$1,280mn in Oc-t’18.

Encouragingly, unlike the past few months where YoY deficit reduction was primarily import led, the Oct’19 improvement in current account balance was driven both by i) export growth (+10%YoY) and ii) import contraction (-21%YoY).

While the current account balance improved sequentially (CA surplus of US$99mn in Oct’19 vs. CA deficit of US$284mn in Sep’19), the underlying trends (goods/services imports: up 9%/34%MoM) seem to suggest the course correction has reached its bottom, thus sustaina-bility of current trend is highly dependent on exports and remittances.

The actual monthly CAD run rate of US$368mn in 4MFY20 remains significantly below our earlier expectations of US$616 per month. At this rate, full-year CAD would be around US$4.42bn (1.7% of GDP) well below the GoP’s target of 3% of GDP and the IMF’s projection of 2.6% of GDP. We look forward to detailed trade data to revise our full CAD estimate of US$7.39bn (2.9% of GDP).

Pakistan Banks: BOP - Clear road to narrowing discount!, (AKD Daily, Nov 18, 2019) - Coverage Initiation

We initiate coverage on Bank of Punjab (BoP) with a ‘Buy’ stance and a TP of PkR14.0/sh, implying an upside of 34.8% from last close. Capital reinforcements (Tier-I/II Cap raised in CY17/18: PkR6.1/4.3bn) of yesteryears coupled with higher interest rate driven earnings growth (CY20-22F CAGR: 15.7%) is likely to keep dividends healthy (CY20F dividend yield: 12.0% vs. 7.7% of our universe) at least in the medium run. Earnings growth is expected to be driven by, i) Gross NIMs swelling to ~4.4% over the medium term vs. 3.9% in 9MCY19, benefitting from structural alignment to interest rates and change in investment mix to longer tenor instruments, magnifying impact of branch expansion (158 branch added in the past 3y) and ii) one of the lowest administrative expenses/branch of PkR23.2mn across our banking universe despite being Government owned, which not only minimizes drain on core income (PBT/NII net of provisioning at 57.0% in 9MCY19) but also compensates for the high-er cost of deposits (9MCY19 CoD: 7.0% vs. 6.0% of peers). Even after providing for cost of provisioning at 1.0%, BOP offers CY20-22F ROE of 20.1%. The stock is currently trading at a CY20F P/B of 0.52x, whereas taking peers’ valuation multiples in to consideration the stock should trade at a P/B of 0.8x based on ROE per unit of PB. Awaiting details regarding modali-ties of Treasury Single Account (TSA), we have incorporated 10% pa. withdrawal from CY23 onwards (Without TSA: TP PkR17.5/sh ceteris paribus).
