A 56% ROE — but priced at twelve times

  1. 01

    Neutral, PKR 215 target: EFERT throws off a stunning 56% ROE and a 7.5% yield on a concessionary-gas edge — but at 11.6× the quality is in the price.

  2. 02

    The concessionary-gas advantage underpins margins and one of the market's most reliable payouts.

  3. 03

    The ceiling is policy — feed-gas pricing and subsidy decisions sit between margin and shareholder.

  4. 04

    At ~11.9× our FY26E EPS the target is PKR 215; single-digit price upside, with the yield carrying the total return.

Key Debates
01

Is a 56% ROE sustainable?

Market View

Concessionary gas flatters returns; normalisation looms.

Our View

The edge has persisted, but the 11.6× multiple already credits it — limited re-rating left.

What Would Change Our Mind

A move to uniform gas pricing across the sector.

02

Yield floor or trap?

Market View

A 7.5% yield is a solid floor.

Our View

Well-covered and a genuine support, but not a catalyst.

What Would Change Our Mind

A payout cut on a gas-cost shock.

03

Demand resilience?

Market View

Subsidy normalisation hits off-take.

Our View

Urea demand is inelastic; EFERT holds share.

What Would Change Our Mind

Sustained double-digit off-take decline.
