1-Year Price Performance 110
Tasnee posted a massive SAR (296) million net loss for the 3rd quarter with management hinting at further pessimism going forward. This is the third consecutive quarter where the Company has posted a net loss. Due to lack of information (particularly regarding the ongoing restructuring at the Company) we are temporarily suspending coverage on the stock and removing our target price and our forecasts. We shall study detailed accounts as they become available and contact management to get a clear understanding of what is in store for the immediate future. Gross margins dip to 11% Revenues have been reported at SAR 3.6 billion for the third quarter, down -36% Y/Y and 13% Q/Q. Gross margins have come in at just 11.1% versus 21.1% last year and even lower than 19.7% in 2Q2015. Business troubles The titanium dioxide business has continued to give Tasnee trouble in 3Q as well with TiO 2 prices depressed and demand also not very strong. Fixed cost ethane comprising majority of the feed stock for the petrochemical segment has resulted in lower margins as polyethylene prices are down -33% Y/Y for the quarter. Extraordinary charges through the year The Company has already suffered extraordinary charges related to hedging and derivative contracts at one of its subsidiaries and has also booked an impairment charge for non-current assets. This is besides the restructuring expenses that the Company is incurring and which management estimates will continue until next year (2016). Withdrawing forecasts and target price Unsurprisingly, the stock has taken a massive beating at the Tadawul. Until Tasnee comes out with clear guidance with regards to restructuring and business segments outlook, we are suspending coverage on the stock and removing our target price. Our forecasts are also being withdrawn.
