Interim Financial Results for the Third Quarter 2014
th
On the 26 of October 2014, Saudi Basic Industries Corporation (Sabic)
disclosed preliminary Q3 2014 financial results displaying net income of SAR
6.18 billion, down 4.48% YoY and 4.33% QoQ. The decrease in net income in
Q3 2014 versus Q3 2013 is attributable to lower quantities sold and drop in
other income in spite of lower financial charges. Overall, Q3 2014 bottom line
performance fell short of our estimate of SAR 6.594 billion by 6.28% and also
came short of Bloomberg’s consensus estimate of SAR6.618 billion by 6.62%.
For 9M 2014, Sabic announced net profit of SAR 19.08 billion increasing 0.05%
from SAR 19.07 billion. The annual increase in bottom line is attributable to
higher income from affiliates and lower financial charges, despite escalating
SG&A expenses.
Gross profit (GP) in Q3 2014 slipped 4.78% YoY to reach SAR 13.74 billion,
whereas operating profit (OP) dwindled 7.63% YoY standing at SAR 10.41
billion from SAR 11.27 billion. Meanwhile, GP and OP increased 2.46% and
3.38% QoQ. On a 9M basis, GP descended 0.51% reaching SAR 41.28 billion and
OP also slumped 2.91% to SAR 31.35 billion.
Profit margins followed a downward trend in 2014 with GP, OP and net profit
margins slipping to 28.21%, 21.37% and 12.69%, respectively, compared to
29.57%, 23.09% and 13.26% in Q3 2013. In 9M 2014, GP and OP margins shed
128 bps and 153 bps culminating at 28.25% and 21.46%, respectively. Net
profit margin also plunged by 51 bps hitting 13.06%.
Latest Developments
Recently, SABIC and Royal Dutch Shell have shelved plans to expand an existing
petrochemical joint venture in Saudi Arabia as the results of feasibility study
had not been encouraging. The two partners in the joint project, known as
SADAF in Jubail, on the Gulf coast of Saudi Arabia, first announced plans to
explore an expansion of their petrochemical plant in 2012.
In July, the company paid its shareholders a cash dividend of SAR 2.5 per share
for the first half of 2014.
Our Comment
Sabic’s financial results for the third quarter show declines in net profit
motivated by lower selling volumes, compared to Q3 2013 and Q2 2014. We
expect the recent decline in oil prices will pressure margins for petrochemical
producers at different levels based on many factors; most importantly
feedstock prices.
We reviewed the previous fair value estimate given the recent developments in
the market regarding foreign ownership as Sabic is believed to be a key target
for foreign institutions. The new fair value stands at SAR 134 per share.
