IPO Note- 'Yield Power' Musandam Power Company SAOG Musandam Power Company SAOG (Under Transformation) IPO Note- ‘Yield Power’ United Securities LLC 29 October, 2019 Musandam Power Company – IPO Note SUBSCRIBE TO MUSANDAM POWER IPO, TP RO 0.309 is +19% from lower price band Valuation at LP band of RO 0.260 We recommend investors to “SUBSCRIBE” for the IPO of Musandam Power Company (MPC) and expect Phase I Market Cap (RO mn) 18.3 investors to place their bids according to their respective risk appetite. Our 12-Month Fair Value Target Price of RO Enterprise Value (RO mn) 88.9 0.309/Share is based on a blended DDM/Relative valuation, and offers upside potential of 19% from the lower price band. P/E (x) 9.0 At the fair value, the stock offers dividend yield of 8.9% dividend yield, which is slightly below that of the sector average, P/B (x) 2.0 but the premium reflects the superior earnings quality of MPC despite the current subdued market scenario. We expect EV/EBITDA (x) 10.3 MPC IPO to warrant a price range of RO 0.279-0.309, which is in line with the current valuations of IPPs at 2019 Dividend Yield between of 7.0% to 12.6%. Our guidance to investors is to focus on the high dividend yield in the near term, and Dividend Yield (%) 11% target for a continuous dividend income throughout the term of the PPA, even though it is likely to be volatile beyond Offer & Subscription info 2026E. The offer price range of RO 0.260 to RO 0.325 sets the company’s dividend yield range between 8.5% to 10.6%, Paid up capital (RO mn) 7.039 which is attractive at the lower end of the price band. However, we feel the pricing at the upper band as expensive at an Shares on offer (mn) 28.156 implied EV/MW of RO 741 for a RE plant that has run for more than 2 years now. Phase I Book Building - 14.08 mn shares Application size: Minimum 200,100 and in Key investment arguments: multiples of 100 upto maximum 2,815,600 1) Stable revenue and cash flow oriented business model shares 2) Strategic asset in Musandam Governorate increases the chances of PPA extension Phase II Fixed price offer 3) High short term dividend yield, which is expected to continue until 2023 Application size: Minimum 1,000 shares 4) Extendable term loan facility with no cash sweep and balloon loan repayment ensures continuity in dividend and in multiples of 100 upto maximum distributions throughout the PPA 200,000 shares 5) Deleveraging efficiency driving debt-equity levels lower Subscription Calendar Musandam Power Company, with its contracted power capacity of 120.7 MW is the only gas fired IPO in Musandam Governorate. Phase I Offer Open 3-Nov It accounts for ca.59% of total capacity of all power generators in the governorate. It's contracted revenue model with OPWP till January 2032 leads to long term revenue and earnings visibility offering 12 years of PPA life. The EBITDA of MPC is expected to Phase I Offer Close 7-Nov grow at a sustainable CAGR of 0.3% during 2019-31E to RO 8.5 million assuming an efficient technical availability of the plant. Offer Price Announcement 12-Nov The company offers stable dividends through 2023, and the same is likely to continue over the remaining PPA term after Phase II Offer Open TBA accommodating for tax payments. It has reasonable payout levels of 70% through 2023E and has the capability to maintain a Phase II Offer Close TBA moderate payout ratio until the expiry of the PPA. Even though the EPS forecast provides enough cushion for higher payouts, we Major shareholders estimate steady deleveraging coupled with higher finance costs to restrict FCFE growth during the second half of the PPA period. Pre-issue We expect payouts to recover only after full repayment of term loans facility by 2036. A strategic asset for the region: In the absence of an alternative gas based generator and lack of commercially viable OOFDC (69.9%), LGI (30%), OETCL (1%) alternatives, MPC may be considered as an asset of strategic importance for the region. Given the strategic importance of MPC to Musandam and relatively smaller size of the market, single buyer approach by OPWP may be a suitable power procurement Post issue option to be applied in the Musandam Governorate. Thus, we attribute a relatively higher probability of OPWP extending the PPA with MPC after its expiry. Additionally, the capacity of existing plants and firm new builds in Musandam may not be sufficient to OOFDC (42%), LGI (18%), Public (40%) cover demand in the Governorate, resulting in potential operating opportunity for MPC beyond the PPA Risk to rating: The company has witnessed an increasing level of working capital requirement during 1H19, which is unusual in the contracted business model. The management is confident about recovering the amounts from its customer during the course United Securities LLC of the year. Prolonged delays in receivable recovery could lead to working capital squeeze, potentially impacting2 dividend 29 October, 2019 distributions in the future.

    BCD Travel Research and Intelligence What you need to know: Airline operations: Middle East April 3, 2020 As demand declines and governments around the world restrict travel, airlines are adjusting their operations, and, in some cases, suspending all services. This report summarizes what airlines in the Middle East are doing and planning. Major carriers Airline Action and plans Emirates Most passenger operations suspended from March 25. Flights to five European destinations resuming on April 6 Etihad Airways All flights suspended from March 26, initially for 14 days Qatar Airways Most flights continue, serving passengers transiting through Doha Turkish Airlines All international and some domestic routes suspended until May 1 Emirates resuming some flights after suspending most passenger operations Emirates suspended most passenger operations from March 25, with no date in place for their resumption.1 It had been trying to maintain these flights as long as possible, to help travelers return home. But increasing travel restrictions – including the March 19 suspension of all entry visas to the United Arab Emirates (U.A.E.) – forced it to curtail its operations substantially. Emirates will continue to operate a small number of passenger flights to a limited number of countries, as long as their borders stay open and demand remains. The airline will resume suspended services once countries reopen their borders and travel confidence returns. Emirates is already looking forward to a gradual resumption of passenger services as travel and operational restrictions are lifted. It has received approval to resume services to Brussels, Frankfurt, London, Paris and Zurich from April 6.2 It will offer four flights per week to Heathrow and three to each of the other destinations.

This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract The Sultanate of Oman has a long coastline extending for about 3165 km including a number of bays and islands. Oman’s coastline borders the Arabian Gulf, the Sea of Oman and the Arabian Sea. Most of this coastline is soft and low laying shore subject to the dynamics of sediment transport and the landward retreat of the shoreline, caused by anthropogenic factors and sea level rise as- sociated with climate change. This paper aims to assess the vulnerability of the entire Omani coastal zone to the expected sea level rise and storm surge. Methodology is based on applying Coastal Vulnerability Index (CVI) to identify clusters of high vulnerability areas according to their sensitivity and dynamic nature and increased risk resulted from seal level rise, erosion and ex- treme weather events. The coastal line of the governorates of Al Batinah, Muscat and Al-Wusta has scored highly due to possessing similar physical attributes.
