Universitas Prasetiya Mulya PT Perusahaan Gas Negara Tbk. This report is published for educational purposes only by Infrastructure, Utilities, Transportation, and Energy Sectors students competing in CFA Institute Research Challenge 2018 Indonesia Stock Exchange Date : February 15th, 2019 Current Price : IDR 2,460 Recommendation : BUY Ticker : PGAS IJ (Bloomberg) Upside Potential : 20.73% Target Price : IDR 2,970 MARKET PROFILE Time for the Giant to Break-Free 52-Wk Price Range (IDR) 1,505 – 2,860 Backed by a favourable gas distribution industry outlook, PGAS is well positioned as a market leader to Avg. Trading Volume 90,396,068 achieve growth and further market penetration. We believe PGAS can overcome insecurity of supply and Shares Outstanding (Bn) 24.24 high capital expenditure, through capital expenditure efficiency and securing gas supply through Free Float 43,04% Pertamina’s gas holding. After considering the investment risks and future growth prospects, we arrived Market Cap. (Tn) IDR 59.63 at a BUY recommendation on PGAS with a 12-month target price of IDR2,970/share, reflecting a 20.73% P/E (ttm) 16.35x upside potential from its IDR2,460 closing price on 15/02/2019 based on our sum of the parts valuation P/BV 1.21x model. Our recommendation lays on the following key catalysts: USD/IDR 14,160 Strong Upcoming Demand from Gas Infrastructure Projects Government have set a target on gas power plant installation of 47.7 GW by 2030 vs current 13.98 GW Share Price Information (IDR) (growing 9.2% CAGR) (IRENA, 2017). The growing capacity will lead to a growing gas demand. However, inadequate pipeline network is currently a setback as it only provides 20-30% of the needed PGAS JCI infrastructure (Ministry of SOE, 2018). Therefore, government is expected to ramp up this figure up to 7000 80-100% by 2030F. Since this government-led plan will involve high expertise to be executed, the 6000 government will turn its favours on PGAS as the government’s leader in the gas sub-holding to deliver this product. On the other hand, PGAS will gain benefits from this, as the government will give incentives 5000 for construction in new market area in the form of 20 years monopoly rights (resulting in maximized IDR/Share 4000 margins as there will be no margin sharing between distributors) and IRR at 12% in that new market area (Company Presentation, 2019). 3000 Secured Supply from Gas Holding to Fulfil Enormous Potential Demand To fulfil the high potential demand, gas supply comes into the equation. The establishment of the 2000 government’s oil and gas holding will align Pertamina’s gas supply chain, securing more supply for PGAS. 1000600 The oil and gas holding means that Pertamina will turn in PGAS’ favour more as the leader in the gas sub- holding, in terms of transporting and distributing its gas. We expect more secured supply for PGAS to be 400 realized soon. To start with, PGAS will benefit from Pertamina’s 6 gas fields with a total potential of 200 281 mmscfd which are expected to fully commercialize by 2021 (Ministry of SOE, 2018). We see this holding initiative as a mutualism between Pertamina and PGAS. Pertamina can have more ease at 0 bringing more blocks to the commercialization process due to assurance of distribution through PGAS, Volume (Million) Volume while PGAS can benefit from the opportunity in transporting the potential supply. June-17 June-18 June-16 PGAS-Pertagas Pipeline Integration to Boost Synergic Value With a secure potential supply and huge potential demand, PGAS will need the infrastructure to match October-16 October-17 October-18 February-16 February-17 February-18 February-19 the supply and demand’s region. Currently, gas production in Indonesia aggregately is above gas demand (7,453 mmscfd vs 7,318 mmscfd), but lack of infrastructure has created gas supply imbalances in several Source: Bloomberg regions (Ministry of EMR, 2018). This is most evident in Region II and III (Figure 8) which runs a gas supply deficit while Region IV has a gas supply surplus. The acquisition of Pertagas will solve this uneven supply Upside Potential in 2019F problem. PGAS’ and Pertagas’ pipeline will be integrated, which will connect Region II, III, and IV’s pipeline network with a 576 km pipeline costing US$213.25 mn of CAPEX. The plan, expected to finish by 3500 2020, will bring an additional revenue of US$342.85 mn by 2023F. Revenue synergy along with cost savings from CAPEX duplication avoidance and SG&A savings will bring NPV of total synergic value at 3000 2,970 20.73% US$582.14 mn. 2500 2,460 Attractive Valuation with Strong Cash Flow Generator PGAS is trading at an attractive 12.7% 2019F FCF Yield and 5.9x 2019F EV/EBITDA (-1 std of 5-yrs historical 2000 average). With a turnaround performance, we believe incremental downside risk remains limited as there will also be lower dependency on upstream oil and gas portfolio post Pertagas acquisition. 1500 Therefore, PGAS’ developed infrastructure earnings characteristic will resurface.
