YANSAB AB
We update our models and revise our outlook on Yanbu National Petrochemical Co (Yansab) for 2016-19, transferring coverage with this update report. Yansab recently reported excellent 1Q2016 results beating RC and street estimates on stellar margin growth. A record margin expansion after a gap of nearly 8-9 quarters is noteworthy. We revise estimates slightly as product prices continue to be depressed since 2015, while Aramco’s decision to raise feedstock costs from 2H2016 could affect margins. Yansab could lose the advantage of higher subsidies (28% discount versus 20% currently) like peers, but a scenario of higher spreads in bottomed feedstock prices is a positive. Yansab’s stock price has rallied by +26% on a YTD basis versus sectors +6% and TASI’s -3%. However, this surge in stock prices has overshot valuations, in our view. A combination of these factors has led a target price revision from SAR 44.00 to SAR 41.00. We revise to Hold from Buy, due to minimal upside. Earnings growth of +11% CAGR due to base effect
We revise revenue growth expectations to +10% CAGR from earlier +11% and expect growth to follow from 2017 once product prices and macro situation in oil market improves. With rise in feedstock costs in 2016, margin could dip initially and improve from 2018, hence adjust EBITDA margins to 36% for 2016-19. Earnings growth of +11% CAGR is expected through 2019, touching SAR 2.0 billion. Earnings tumbled by -50% in 2015 to SAR 1.2 billion, hence a higher growth rate on lower base is a sector-wide trend. SABIC to add further synergies
1-Year Price Performance
Globally, prices of Yansab’s key products, PE, PP and MEG have witnessed large volatility but still lower than correction witnessed in crude oil prices. The outlook on supply is steady as global utilization rates of 87% are healthy while Yansab maintains 85%. Demand across products is expected to grow at +5% for 2016-20 for all products despite slight weakening in China. SABIC’s strong network in global petchem space should further help Yansab in adding synergies and position well in its export markets, mainly Asia.

Stock has rallied by +55% since our last note in January and has outperformed TASI by a large margin. This had led to a valuation premium over sector; with Yansab’s 2016E P/E of 15.0x expensive to sector’s 13.2x and TASI’s 13.8x. Additionally, 2016-19 earnings growth of +11% is higher to sector’s +9% (consensus earnings), hence a premium versus sector is unwarranted. We believe rally is overdone, with limited upside and thin yield of 3.8%, suggesting that Yansab is no longer attractive. Revise to Hold on valuation concerns.

Yanbu National Petrochemical Co (Yansab) Update Report
Sector Outlook Global petrochemical product prices witnessed large volatility over the last few quarters, particularly since the start of 2016. In addition to the volatile prices, the short-term shift in China’s consumption further escalated worries when its PMI hit below 48.0 during 1Q2016. With Yansab’s largest market being Asia, we believe Asia’s supply-demand dynamics is likely to influence its growth outlook. Yansab exports 43% to Asian markets predominantly to China, while product portfolio mainly comprises of PP, PE and MEG and accounts for 90% of revenue. Globally most product prices touched its 5-7 year lows unlike oil’s 15-year lows. MEG touched a low of US$ 585/ton, PP at US$ 1,060/ton and PE at US$ 1,065/ton nearing its 7-year lows. We analyze and examine the persistence of demand-supply on these markets. Global Mono Ethylene Glycol (MEG), Yansab’s key product, accounts for 43% of revenue as of 2015. Yansab with a MEG capacity of 0.8 million MT has a 3% share globally, though MEG’s share in exports is relatively unknown. MEG market is 26 million MT as of 2015 and key consumer being China with its 51% share due to its MEG’s usage and significance in the PET bottle industry. According to TM research, the MEG market is expected to grow at 6.1% CAGR during 2015-23. KSA producers are increasingly focusing on Chinese markets as China’s MEG demand of 12 million MT is met through imports of 8 million MT. It has local supply of 4 million MT, however capacities are getting build up by 2018. Exhibit 1: Global MEG Demand & Supply from 2014-20 (Mln Tons) Supply

Global polypropylene (PP) demand is at par with supply and according to Nexant research, demand is expected to grow at +5% CAGR and reach 74 million MT by 2020. Yansab has a market share of 0.5% in a largely Asia dominated market. PP’s long-term demand is driven by end user industries in Auto and electronics, which are on a gradual rise, mainly in Asia.

Yanbu National Petrochemical Co (Yansab) Update Report China alone has a 20% share of the PP market, as products for use in injection moulding, carries lot of significance in China’s plastics industry. We believe capacities are expected to increase in this market at a steady pace in US, China and Korea from 2017. Global PE products (LDPE, HDPE and LLDPE) are expected to grow at a CAGR of +6% through 2020 to 109 million MT. With consumption remaining robust, demand is equating supply. We believe the PE industry has shown a narrowing supply-demand gap, however concerns of over capacity are less likely. Additionally global operating rates have not significantly expanded, barely affecting price-demand equation. We do not expect an immediate ramp-up in capacity and expected to show some level of increased supply from 2018 as China and US are in the process of expanding its capacity across products.

Yanbu National Petrochemical Co (Yansab) Update Report
Financial Analysis Revisions driven by margins and changes in product price outlook for 2016-19 We adjust our forecasts and publish our revised outlook for 2016-19E. The key factors driving our revisions are the volatility in product prices. As a result, revise revenue by -2% for 2016-19 from earlier estimates. Consensus revenue had a huge deviation of +10% for 2017 versus RC, as analysts expect product prices to spike up significantly. We believe utilization rates are likely to stay firm at 85% on a gross level. The effect of subsidy cuts from 2H2016 leads to a dip in margins initially and improve from 2018. We followed suit to adjust earnings though our expectations are more positive from 2017. Table 1: Changes in Estimates (SAR Mln)-RC versus Consensus RC Estim ates (Old)

Revenue growth expected from 2017 EIA expects oil prices to stabilize in a range of US$60/bbl for 2017 and expected to reach US$ 80/bbl by 2019 barring any unforeseen geo-political risks. We incorporate such assumptions and estimate similar growth in Yansab’s product prices. Oil prices touched a low of US$ 27/bbl in January and recovered to US$ 47/bbl, recovering by +78% in less than 3 months denoting its volatility. However, product prices did not touch as low as oil neither recovered sharply. Based on our revised projections, we expect Yansab to report a revenue growth of +10% CAGR for 2016-19 to SAR 8.4 billion by 2019. The same is driven by expectations of an improvement in prices of MEG, PP and PE growing at an average of 6% CAGR through 2019. Exhibit 7: Revenue (SAR Mln) and Growth Forecasts

Yanbu National Petrochemical Co (Yansab) Update Report
Product prices have high correlation in an upcycle Yansab’s sales of SAR 1.5 billion in 1Q2016 were similar to 1Q2015, in a period where oil markets witnessed its worst downside. A historical correlation of quarterly sales versus product prices suggests correlations are decreasing in a down cycle; while in an upcycle, it does move in tandem. This signifies the fundamental dynamics of demand and supply, which means product prices movements are indicative of supply-demand factors and not short-term market factors.

New margin trends to start, initially dip in 2016-17 and improve from 2018 Opex on an average for 2016-19 stood at 71% considering an increase in overall cost from 2016. Yansab is shock proof until 2Q2016 when the new pricing structure becomes applicable. Aramco had given a grace period for subsidized feedstock, following Yansab’s inception in 2009 and the same expires in 2016. For 1Q2016, COGS declined sharply due to a sharp drop in Propane (Asia) prices, where Yansab gets a 28% discount until 2Q2016. We expect the propane spreads will be reduced to 20% discount to global benchmark. Similarly, ethane will be priced at US$ 1.75/mmbtu from 4Q2016. The Q/Q trends suggest that COGS to sales versus international feedstock price trends are moving in inverse directions.

We expect Yansab to have an improved margin scenario from 2017 as feedstock spreads are expanding globally amid KSA producer’s advantage of lower feedstock costs. In this scenario, a growth of +9% CAGR in gross profit (refer to exhibit 11) is expected through 2019 reaching SAR 2.5 billion.

EBITDA margins to improve from 2018 We expect EBITDA margins of 36% on an average for 2016-19 and expect a CAGR of +8% through 2019 to reach SAR 3.0 billion. Yansab would be able to improve margins as operating rates of 85% are stable denoting decent operating leverage helping to cover fixed costs while scope for improvement is seen, unless unplanned shutdown occurs.

Relatively debt free balance sheet; ROE’s are lower versus sector Yansab has nearly SAR 4.1 billion of debt as of 1Q2016 with the majority of repayment planned over the next 3-4 years. D/E ratios of 16% are relatively lower to sector leaving high interest coverage ratios despite depressed profitability scenario from 2015. It continues its maintenance capex at a run rate of 2-3% over the last 3-4 years except in case of shutdown in some quarters, which is a one-off. Its steady stream of cash flows leaves enough room for a decent dividend payout, leaving any unplanned shutdowns. ROE of 11% is low in the sector, we believe lower leverage (debt) and limited expansion are the reasons.

Gross margins are the highest after a span of nine quarters, suggesting the feedstock spread advantage, despite Aramco hiking its fuel prices, which was not applicable for Yansab. Net income of SAR 402 million beat our estimates of SAR 281 million for 1Q2016, an increase of +41% Y/Y and +2% Q/Q. Net margins stood at its best after a gap of 4 quarters with 27% net margins versus 17% in 1Q2015 and 22% in 4Q2015.
Consensus consistently see surprises Yansab earnings have mostly been a mixed bag since 2015 with consensus rarely meeting expectations. We noted that most analyst expectations were on the bearish side as oil prices started collapsing as evident from 3Q2014 with mostly positive surprises except in case of 1Q and 3Q of 2015.

Yanbu National Petrochemical Co (Yansab) Update Report
Valuation We roll forward and update our models to value Yansab using both absolute and relative valuations. With current operating rates and limited capex, we believe DCF method would be apt in valuing Yansab. Margins are likely to improve following the pickup in product prices and drive sustainable free cash flows, as operations continue to be intact. Alternatively, we value Yansab using a target P/E multiple method which derived SAR 37.05 fair value using 14.0x P/E. Amongst the valuation approaches we prefer DCF valuation and revise our 12-month target price to SAR 41.00 from our SAR 44.00 earlier. Revise to Hold.
#1: DCF suggests fair value of SAR 40.67 Our DCF valuation with forecast assumed for 2017-19E used a long-term terminal growth rate of 0.5% and risk-free rate assumption of 3.8%, which includes a premium of 1.5% for country risk over benchmark 10-year T-bill yields of 2.3% (being the average of the last 6 months). This results in cost of equity of 11.7%, while we assume after tax cost of debt at 5.1%, deriving a WACC of 10.4% assuming a capital structure (Equity/Debt) of 20%.

Risks to valuation The continued volatility in oil prices poses a challenge to sustainable product prices as product prices have hit multi-year lows. Additionally, the feedstock spread advantage could become limited versus international peers if Aramco continues to increase the price of feedstock. Yansab exports mostly to Asian countries (nearly 43% of revenue coming from Asia) and any slowdown in Asia affects Yansab.

Yanbu National Petrochemical Co (Yansab) Update Report
#2: Target P/E valuation at SAR 37.05 As sanity check on valuation approaches, we valued Yansab using target P/E based method and derived a fair value of SAR 37.05. We derived a target in the P/E range of 14.0x considering average range of the P/E multiples between 3 to 5 years. Additionally, our view augments that valuation ranges are closer currently; its large cap peers are at a P/E median of 15.2x, while overall sector valuations are at 13.2x due to outliers.

Valuations expensive, thin yields Yansab trades above par and remains expensive to sector P/E amid lower yield. It trades at P/E of 17.0x, the highest among large caps in the sector and a thin TTM yield of 5.0%. Currently, the stock offers 24% premium to sector on a TTM basis. We believe with multi-product exposure and valuation range, Yansab offers lower risk reward among peers, while priced attractively are peers such as SAFCO and SABIC, which trades at 14.5x and 13.8x respectively.
