  • Annual Report PETROKEMIJA January to December Period 2017
    UNAUDITED UNCONSOLIDATED ANNUAL REPORT PETROKEMIJA, d.d. KUTINA REPORT FOR PERIOD January to December 2017 INTERIM REPORT FOR PERIOD October to December 2017 Kutina, February 2018 Introduction In the reporting period January – December 2017, the business environment of Petrokemija, d.d. was marked by two key occurrences - the fall in sales prices of mineral fertilizers with the simultaneous growth of the natural gas purchase price as the main raw material. Despite the adverse conditions in the narrower and wider economic environment, in 2017, Petrokemija, d.d. increased production by 11.5% and sales of mineral fertilizers by 7.5%, compared to the previous year. The sales in the domestic market were up by 10.1%, the sales in the region, with extra efforts made, were up by 16.4%, whereas the sales to distant markets, due to high transportation costs and strong competition of large manufacturers, as well as to lower sales prices, fell by 5.7%. The increase in sales in the markets of the region, and in particular the domestic market, is the result of the sales strategy adopted in 2017. One of its positive results is the strengthening of the competitive position of Petrokemija d.d. on the domestic market and the reduction of imports of mineral fertilizers into the Republic of Croatia by 33% as compared to the year before. In 2017, Petrokemija d.d. responded with only partial success to the challenges of the low-price crisis of mineral fertilizers, which European fertilizer manufacturers have been facing for the third year now, and to disturbances in the agricultural and food chain at local and regional level that were started by the crisis in the Agrokor Group.

  • Above Expected Kuna Bond Issue? [email protected]
    SEE Weekly Analyst: Tajana Striga Above expected kuna bond issue? [email protected] +385 1 6033 522 SEE yields mixed Fed left monetary policy unchanged with key interest rates unchanged in line with market expectations. However, statement released after meeting was more cautious than expected whereby Fed members acknowledge improved consumer and business sentiment, but stays dovish on inflation still below 2% long-term target. All in all, until newly elected US president Trump details his planned fiscal expansion, the markets currently expect only two rate hikes in 2017, while FOMC baseline remains three rate hikes. Despite that, SEE yields saw rather modest moves this week, with Slovenian and Croatian USD yields down 9bp and 6bp, respectively, and Serbian USD yields barely rose by 4bp. Euro yields stayed unchanged in Slovenia and rose 4bps in Croatia. Locally, investors’ focus is on the next week's bond auction in Croatia, including two issues in kuna with 5Y and 11Y maturities. Given the generous HRK17bn excess liquidity and potential ECB tapering later this year, we expect the MinFin to issue in excess of HRK5.5bn maturity and place HRK7-8n to strengthen cash reserves ahead of the upcoming USD bond maturity. Subdued banks’ credit activity and new European rules on sovereign debt risk requirements also bode well for demand as well as recent S&P (- and Fitch) rating outlook upgrade from negative to stable that led to some 15bp spread tightening since then. We see 5Y and 11Y yields just below 2% and 3%, respectively, with the former subject do downside risks as the future buying conduct of ECB may shift meaningfully towards the sub 5Y sector and the CNB may resume easing focused on the medium part of the yield curve.
