Higher feedstock cost would impact Kayan's earnings after FY2017

19/01/2016 15:24 AST

Aljazira Capital stated in their recently issued research report that the government of Saudi Arabia recently raised natural gas, fuel, Petchem feedstock, and electricity prices to curb deficit. It increased the Ethan prices from earlier fixed subsidized rate of USD 0.75 per mmbtu to USD 1.75 per mmbtu and Methane/natural gas from 0.75 per mmbtu to USD 1.25 per mmbtu. This change is expected to increase feedstock prices for Petchem players. However, the company clarified that it was granted a grace period of seven years and three months for some feedstock, namely ethane, butane and methane, which were supplied in 2010. Accordingly, new feedstock prices will be gradually applied by 2Q-2017. The increase in electricity reprising is expected to increase the production costs by about 1% according to the company. Aljazira Capital have reworked on financial model assumptions to incorporate the impact of these changes. Based on their revised assumptions, Kayan's net income would decline by SAR42 mn in 2016 and SAR530 mn in 2018.
