Fertilizer Sector Outlook

Agriculture Sector

The undeniable importance of the agriculture sector to the economy of Pakistan is reflected in its
contribution to national output, employment and export earnings. This sector contributes 22% to
the country's Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and employs 43% of total labor force. Growth in
this area of Economy is vital for poverty alleviation, as about 66 percent of rural population is
directly or indirectly dependent on the agriculture sector for sustenance. Pakistan’s major source
of foreign exchange earnings is the textile sector which also relies on agricultural performance.
The major crops of Pakistan are wheat, cotton, rice and sugarcane, which make up 7% of the
country’s GDP.

Fertilizer has a significant contribution in increasing crop yields and productivity. Proper
application of nutrients helps in efficient utilization of limited natural resources such as land and
water. Fertilizers improve crop yield by removing the deficiency of chemical elements taken
from the soil by harvesting, grazing, leaching or erosion. Coupled with improved seeds, better
insecticides and more effective fungicides, chemical fertilizers play a vital role in boosting
agricultural output. With proper farmer education and increased awareness, the fertilizer off-take
can improve substantially. Nutrient application in suitable quantities can further improve farm
productivity, thereby helping in eradicating poverty.

5
Types Of Fertilizer

Urea, which represents 65% of total fertilizer consumed and di-ammonium phosphate (DAP),
which accounts for 18%, are the main types of fertilizer used in Pakistan, but there is a total of
eight different fertilizer products which fall into three categories.

Urea, along with calcium ammonium nitrate (CAN) and ammonium sulphate (AS) together make
up almost three fourths of total fertilizer consumption and come under the nitrogenous category.
Under the phosphatic category which makes up about 27%, is DAP, triple super phosphate
(TSP), single super phosphate (SSP) and nitro phosphate (NP). And under the last category,
potassic is sulphate of potash which makes up only 1%. Since the soil in Pakistan generally
tends to be deficient in nitrogen, urea is the most used fertilizer. DAP is used, as most phosphatic
fertilizers are to counter the effect of the acidic urea and maintain levels of fertility in the soil.

Global Scenario

The world grain consumption has outpaced production in six of the last seven years, with 2005
being the only exception, in which production superseded supply due to favorable weather in
almost all the major grain producing countries. With the growing demand of food and rapid
increase in demand for biofuels, the grain consumption growth has witnessed an increase of 2%
in 2007 from the historical average rate of 1.2% p.a. This has led to a widening gap between
consumption and production resulting in sharp increase in food prices in the global market.

During 2007, total global production of grains was recorded at 2.3bn tons, up 4% YoY. Despite,
the increase in production the global commodity prices have climbed significantly during the
past twelve months on the back of rising demand from emerging economies. Corn, wheat, and
rice account for about 85% of the global grain harvest (in terms of weight), while sorghum,
millet, barley, oats, and other less common grains make up the rest. China, India, and the United

6
States alone account for 46% of global grain production; Europe, including the former Soviet
states, grow another 21%.

In 2007, a 200mn ton jump in the global coarse grain harvest was responsible for nearly all of the
increase in the total grain harvest. Production of coarse grains a group that includes corn, barley,
sorghum, and other grains fed mainly to animals increased 10% from 985mn tons in 2006 to
1,080mn tons in 2007. During 2007, a significant amount of global corn production was used in
producing biofuels, the use of which is being promoted in developed countries (mainly EU and
USA). Governments in developed countries have been encouraging the use of biofuels primarily
due to (1) Increasing price of international crude oil and (2) Bio-fuels are environment friendly.

Out of a total of 784mn tons of corn harvested during 2007, about 255mn tons or 32.5% was
used in extracting biofuels which has resulted in sharp increase in price of the commodity.
Higher corn prices prompted many a farmers in various countries (China, Brazil and the United
States) to switch to corn harvesting. Another major consumer of grains is the livestock sector,
which accounted for approximately 627mn tons (27%) in the form of feed for the cattle. Demand
of grains from this sector has grown rapidly over the past few years on account of higher
consumption of dairy products and meat by the developing countries especially China, India and
Brazil.

The amount of grain stored by governments, a good measure of the global cushion against poor
harvests and rising prices continues to decline. Global cereal stocks were expected to stand at
318mn tons by the close of the 2007 season, equivalent to about 14 percent of annual
consumption, lowest since many years. In comparison to the global scenario, Pakistan’s food
grain production has witnessed a rising trend over the years registering a 4-year CAGR (FY02-
06) of 5.7% on the back of good harvest of major crops (wheat & rice) which account for almost
84% of the total grain production of the country.

Pricing

Local Arena
Urea prices have shown a positive trend over the last few years on the back of step-wise increase
in feedstock gas prices, the primary raw-material for urea manufacturing. Government heavily
subsidizes feedstock prices in Pakistan, to keep the urea prices within affordable limits of the
farmers. A 50kg bag of urea is sold at PKR 558-565 (prices were revised upwards in Dec’07)
versus a price of approximately PKR 1000 per bag in the international market. DAP prices on the
other hand have undergone a radical increase during 2007, due to record high phosphoric acid
prices in the international market (a major raw material). Local prices of DAP are highly
correlated with their global rates since over 70% of the commodity used in the country is
imported. As a result, domestic DAP prices have surged during CY07, rising from PKR 800 per
bag at the start of the year to touch PKR 1,680 by Dec’07.

9
International versus Local

Urea Prices

International urea prices have escalated at a healthy 4-year CAGR (FY03-07) of 19.6%, driven
by its increased usage globally from 128mntpa in 2005 to 138mntpa in 2007. On the other hand
local urea prices have risen at a 4-year CAGR of 6.8% from FY03 to FY07. GOP heavily
subsidizes the feedstock gas prices in order to make available the fertilizer to the local farmers at
an affordable cost. Urea prices are primarily linked to the increase in feedstock gas prices, which
are expected to rise at a next 4-year CAGR of 11% going forward. Consequently we expect local
urea prices to increase at a 4-year CAGR of 5.5% for the period FY07-FY11.

10
DAP Prices

International DAP prices have risen sharply during 2007 (+143% YoY) on the back of rising
demand for the phosphatic fertilizer for harvesting of crops used in production of biofuels. In the
local market, price of DAP fertilizer too has followed suit and has gone up from PKR 873 per
50kg bag at the start of 2007 to around PKR 1,680 per bag at present. Despite the PKR 470 per
bag subsidy by the GOP, the hefty rise in DAP prices has caused its off-take to drop significantly
during the past few months with many farmers reverting to the use of urea. FFBL the only
producer of DAP and caters to only 31% of the DAP demand of Pakistan while the rest of the
demand is met through imports. Since the local prices are highly correlated to global prices we
estimate DAP prices to increase at a 4-year CAGR (CY07-11E) of 6.3%.

11
Demand & Supply

There are nine fertilizer plants in Pakistan with a total installed capacity of 4.35mn tons
including urea, Di-ammonium phosphate (DAP), single super phosphate (SSP), calcium
ammonium nitrate (CAN), nitro phosphate (NP) and ammonium sulfate (AS). Total demand of
these fertilizers is estimated to grow at an average of 4% per annum in the medium term. The
shortfall of approximately 1.1mntpa is met through import on which GOP provides subsidies.
During FY08, the GOP allocated a sum of PKR 13.5bn for import of various fertilizers.

The graph above shows the demand trend of both major fertilizers, urea and DAP, which has
increased at a 4-year CAGR (CY02-06) of 4.6% and 7.7% respectively. Given the increase in
crop prices, low per acre usage of fertilizers, increasing awareness among the farming
community and vast cultivable land, we estimate demand growth of fertilizers to average over
4% per annum over the next 4 years.

12
Taxes

The government has privatized and deregulated fertilizer imports and prices. In 1986, all
subsidies on nitrogenous fertilizers were abolished followed by phosphates in 1993 and potash in
1997. Provincial quotas were abolished, provincial supply organizations in the public sector
abandoned and import controls were lifted. All imports are affected by the private sector. In
2001, the government imposed a 15 percent general sales tax on all fertilizer products. Farmers
have to pay international prices for imported products, apart from urea.

The share of the private sector in fertilizer marketing is 89 percent, compared to 11 percent for
the public sector. The private sector handles about 90 percent of the urea and 100 percent of the
DAP, the two major fertilizer products consumed in the country. A dealer network of about 8
000 retailers exists in the country. Fertilizer companies select and train the dealers. There is no
government intervention. However, under ‘Fertilizer Acts’ promulgated by provinces, fertilizer
quality is monitored by the provincial governments.

Analysis

21
Considering the liquidity trend of DH we can observe there is not much difference between the current and quick for
a particular year throughout the period of eight years, it shows the efficient inventory management of the firm,
however a sudden increase in the current and quick ratio in the CY02 can be seen, such a change is not observed in
the sector as a whole, the reason given is the 69% increase in cash and bank balance alone amongst the current
assets and. The figures are further aggravated upward because of 39% decrease in current liabilities as compared to
the figures of 2001. CY04 on wards the liquidity of the firm has been declining but stability can be seen during the
CY07 and CY08 which is a good sign.
Comparing the liquidity of DH with the industry average, DH has always remained much ahead of the sector
throughout the eight years except for the CY06, which is due to the 100% decrease in the prepayments in the form
of advance income tax and the cash, the prepayments decreased by PKR 4.7 bill and cash decreased by PKR 6.3 bill
in CY06 as compared to CY05.
The average collection period of DH shows a declining trend from CY01 to CY02, in effect in the CY02 ACPD had
declined to even 7 days, which was much below the industry average. It is important to note that this reduction in
average collection period is not because of the increase in sales but it is due to the decrease in receivables and the
increase ACPD after CY02 is because of the
credit sales which has increased by 6% in CY03
compared to that of CY02. During the CY03
and CY04 the ACPD remained between 74 to
80 days, however due to efficient credit
recovery policy then followed by the
organization resulted in substantial decrease in
the collection period but still the figure
remained well above the industry average. In
the CY08 DH, following its efficient credit
recovery policy managed to decrease its
collection period to the industry level, that is 5 days. It is evident from the graph above that managing inventory had
never been a problem for DH as compared to the industry throughout CY01 to CY08 except for the CY07 when
AID of DH reached up to 100 days, it was majorly because of increase in stocks by more then twice, but the sales
and cost of goods has not increased by such proportion. Average payable days of DH has also been high as
compared to the industry average from CY01 to CY07 but during the CY08 payable in days became almost at par
with industry which is an alarming sign.
Fixed asset turnover has been of DH has been the highest
with in the industry, we can observe an abnormal increase
in FATO in CY02 this is basically due to a 19 % decrease
in FA of the firm , however since then the firm’s FA has
been increasing compared to each preceding year. In
CY06 the FATO remained the lowest of all the eight
years, it is because of the 95% increase in the FA of the

22
firm. For the CY 01 and CY02 the TATO of DH remained at par with the industry average, however due to good liquidity status
of the firm it remained below the industry average from CY05 to CY08.

The solvency ratio of DH indicates that firms capital structure is not inclined towards debt as much as that of the industry, the
debt ratio of the industry has always been more that the debt ratio of DH. However debt to equity ratio of DH has been greater
than the debt-equity ratio of the industry, we can observe
that in CY06 the debt ratio of DH reached the highest it is
because of the 1888% increase in long term borrowing, also
we should keep in mind that this is the year when company
initiated a BMR project to enhance its capacity so that it can
meet the arising challenges, it is well reflected by the fact
that the debt ratio declines afterwards. The debt ratio of the
industry appears to be rising from CY06 to CY08; it means
that the need for expansion is taken by the industry after the
initiative of DH.

The return on asset of DH has been greater then the return on


asset of the industry from CY01- CY03 but we seen decline
in the ROA of DH during the CY04, it is because of the
sharp increase in receivables and a slight decline in sales.
The firm quickly responded the situation and we see an
opposite situation altogether in the CY05 and CY07.

DH’s return on equity had never been fascinating as


compared to the industry average except for the CY07 which
is because of the 393% increase in net income during that
year. However the situation could not remain likewise during
the CY08 and the reason for that were 70% decrease in net
income and 900% dilution in share holder’s equity- that is
the firm issued further 9000 shares of common stock in
CY08.

Operating and Net Profit Margins has kept on fluctuating


throughout the analysis horizon. The potential reasons being the
economic cycle, input prices and the demand for the product. A
clear trend can be observed is of relatively stable operating margin
while ups and downs in the NPM. This could be the effect of
fluctuating finance costs while applicability of different tax
deductible policies adopted by the firm during the different years.
However the OM is following the upward trend for the past three

23
years. OM is generally being improved during the eight years as was observed 21% in CY01. Although during CY04, 24% is
aloof from the trend. NPM is also following the improving trend during the years. When compared with industry average, DH is
far ahead from the trend on both the aspects. This shows better efficiency and productivity of the firm.

When seeing towards cash flow ratios, we see that cash coverage ratio was better at the start of the decade but declined severely
during the years but has adopted a stable trend during the recent years. While fixed charge ratios for the company is on the same
trend. In fact during CY08, it went negative, which is not good for the company. Cash flow adequacy ratio too has been declining
and even went negative during the years but was adequate in 2008. The analysis of cash flows show a problem on the cash flow
health of the firm and indicate that firm is not generating the required cash to finance its liabilities.

EPS has been somewhat stable during the analysis


horizon except in CY07. The relative fluctuation is due
to the different operating performances of the firm
during the different years. P/E ratios too have been
following the same trend b/c of fluctuating EPS and
stock market trends during the era. However EPS has
generally improved during the years and P/E too. This
shows the confidence of investors on the DH stock.

When compared with the industry average, DH is again


far ahead with the trend in EPS aspect. While P/E ratio
of the industry at first rises till CY04 and then declines
thereafter. Such a trend is not observed in DH ratios.

As far as payout ratio is concerned, DH is retaining its earnings


more than previous years, i.e., its payout ratio is on the declining
trend. The potential causes would be the retention for further
expansions, BMR requirements ahead, etc. While the industry is
paying its shareholders at a stable trend. In other words, industry is
better in paying off its shareholders.

Analysis
Over the years, it has been seen that till CY04 a constant trend is seen. Then the revenues are on the rising trend with more than
doubled in 2008 – the most successful year for the company. Compared with COGS, revenues are on the rising trend relative to
the cost of sales. That’s why GP increased at a higher trend than COGS.

Selling and admin expenses have increased but have not deteriorated the operating profits for the company. OP are too rising at a
higher trend. Then PBT was on the rising trend till 2007 then declined suddenly in 2008 but this seem adequate because a rising
trend cannot be continued forever. Due to the increase in earnings, the company has to pay higher taxes too. But the company has
opted such policies for taxation so that there would be less deteriorating effect on EAT. Lastly, EPS has kept on fluctuating as the
trend for EAT.

Analysis
SHE has following a rising trend but the prime factor behind that is revenue reserve. Issued and paid-up capital at first has risen
but then declined because of the purchase of treasury stock. BMR reserve has been finished after the restructuring of the plant in
2005.

The company has financed primarily on long term debt during the recent years due to the tax advantage and unstable stock
market conditions. Deferred taxation has been excessive during the current years which too added on the non-current liabilities
section of the balance sheet. Current liabilities have been very stable during the years.

When looking at the left side of the balance sheet, the firm has kept on increasing its fixed assets. The company has ended its
long term investments, long term loans and advances and deferred costs while focusing more on current assets to avoid
redundancy. Receivables and inventory has been properly managed while cash balances were also declining for the firm , which
is alarming as discussed previously.

Analysis
Vertical analysis of income statement shows the clear picture of the firm. COGS have been declining and responsible for the
improvement of GP. It shows the operating efficiency for the firm. S & A expenses have risen slightly over the years. PBT has
been fluctuating due to the extraordinary items on the income statement. However, finance costs have increased substantially.
Taxation has been different during the different years and hence no conclusion can be deduced from the trend because of the
different policies opted by the firm to avoid as much as possible from this expense.

Vertical analysis of balance sheet depicts a declining trend of SHE on the balance sheet. Non-current liabilities have been
increased due to financing of the company’s operations by that door. Current liabilities show a declining trend as clear in the
decline in current assets section of the balance sheet.

Fixed assets have increased during the years while current assets have decreased on the other side. The company has restructures
itself during CY05.

Analysis

DuPont analysis of the company reveals that the effective tax rate for the company has been declining from around 30% to
merely 9% in 2007. However disregarding any special case the effective rate for the company is 20% in the current scenario.
Relative financing costs for the firm are on the declining trend although the firm has borrowed more in the recent years. This
shows that the company is successful on its operational aspect. OPM for the company also increased during the years from 21%
to 36%. Although NPM has been very fluctuating because of different tax reduction tactics.

A turnover ratio of the firm shows a deteriorating trend during the horizon. May be the company is building up capacity on rising
demands in the future but at this stage the results are not very impressive. NPM has been somewhat more stable, remaining on an
average in 10s.

The company has become more leveraged during the years due to the tax advantage of the debt and higher cost of raising capital
by equity in the current situation.

ROE has also been somewhat stable during the years except from CY05 to CY07 when the economic growth of the country was
impressive but wiped out after current economic and political turmoil.

46
Conclusion and Recommendations

After a thorough analysis of the financial statements of the said organization for last eight years it can be concluded the
organization has been performing quite well as far as the operating activity is concerned, firm’s financial managers and decision
makers also appear to be very efficient and well aware of the market environment. A phenomenal growth can be observed in the
firm’s ROE which further strengthens the investors’ faith in the organizations; however the area that seems to be lagging in the
organization after CY05 is the availability of fluent cash flows.

In order to make the cash flow of the firm better the managers must focus on the improvement of the cash cycle, they must
workout with their credit and procurement policies in order to compete with the industry. The managers of the firm should strive
to increase the figure of average payable days above the industry average and on the other hand they should also bring down the
average collection period.

Dawood Hercules is recently serving the fertilizer needs only in the provinces of NWFP and Punjab leaving behind the potential
market of Sind. A dealership of 3000 in numbers is on of the strength of the distribution channel of the organization; however it
should also try to establish an equivalent network in the southern region of the country so increase the market share. Also DH
should take advantage of the port city of Karachi for exporting its products across the globe; it can be made possible by setting up
a fertilizer plant in Sind. Plant in the Sheikhupura, near Lahore should be expanded in order to capture the market of Afghanistan
and Central Asian countries.

Future Outlook & Insight for Investors

Looking at the Stock holders’ equity side of the balance sheet where it is evident that the firm has issued further 9000 shares of
common stocks in CY08, also the decline in dividend payout ratio is indication towards the expansion and growth. In the view of
above mention scenario DH is an attractive organization for long term investments. Those who are willing to invest in the said
organization may receive valuable returns two to three years from now, furthermore by investing in fertilizer sector and specially
in DH, capital gain can also prove to be a valuable decision of investors in the years to come.
