New Taxes along with likely
Gas Prices increase to Lower Aracemco's Target Price
New income tax of 5% on
companies and individuals earning above EGP1.0 million annually to be applied
on Aracemco for 3 years effective 2014, driving its effective tax rate to 30%
in the period FY14-FY16. Meanwhile, the GoE is considering fuel products subsidy
reforms including Natural Gas. Accordingly, we examined these two factors’
effect on Aracemco’s target price as follows:
Base Case Scenario
·
The
GoE considers increasing natural gas prices for energy intensive industries to
reach US$6/mmBtu, except for cement industry to pay US$8/mmBtu while increase
it to US$4/mmBtu up from US$3/mmBtu for non-energy intensive industries,
including the ceramics industry.
·
Given
the fact that we already factored the increase to US$4/mmBtu in our last update
on Aracemco dated April 30, 2014 effective second half FY14;
·
our
new Base Case Scenario, which was affected only by the change in the effective
tax rate results a 2.6% drop in the target price to EGP36.23/share, still
offering 7.1% upside potential over the current market price of EGP33.83/share.
Accordingly, we downgrade our recommendation to “Hold” based on this scenario.

Worst Case Scenario
·
In
this we scenario we conservatively assumed that the GoE will apply a unified
natural gas price of USD6/mmBtu via a one-time adjustment for all industries
except for cement industry at US$8/mmBtu; effective second half FY14.
·
Although
a natural gas price of USD6/mmBtu doubles the energy price to Aracemco, the
company already in place plan towards shifting the ceramic tiles production
process to Dry Milling Technology is expected to significantly absorb a large
portion of the expected increase in energy cost, leading to 58% increase and
-4% drop in energy cost during FY14 and FY15, respectively compared to 23%
increase and -18% drop in energy cost during FY14 and FY15, respectively in our
latest update.
·
Accordingly,
our target price drops to EGP31.75/share, a 6.1% lower than the current market
price. Accordingly, we downgrade our recommendation to “Reduce” based on this
scenario.
