Petrochemical SectorResult preview . 4Q-2012

Sector update

• Average prices of OPEC crude oil recorded at USD107.2/bbl1, during 4Q2012, as compared to USD106.6/bbl2

recorded in 3Q2012. On the other hand, average prices of naphtha as per Argaam, were recorded at USD942.8/tonne3, indicating QoQ increase of 2.8%.

• The following table indicates quarterly price trend of key basic chemicals, intermediaries, polymers and fertilizers;

During 4Q-2012, the following are the key sector’s events and their impact on the companies;

• The increase in the average prices of intermediaries & some polymers (propylene) remained higher than the increase witnessed in basic chemicals (as indicated in above table); thus, possible improvement in gross margins is expected in 4Q2012.

• YANSAB ethylene glycol (EG) plant went out of operations for 10 weeks from 25th Nov 2012;

� Potential impact will be on YANSAB and SABIC profitability; where, YANSAB in a press release indicated the no significant impact on YANSAB will be observed in 4Q-2012. However, the financial impact will appear in 1Q2013 earnings. We, therefore, make our 4Q2012 estimates (as indicated in the below table) in accordance with the given information; and believe the company would sell its inventory (produced at low prices) at 4Q2012 prices (higher than 3Q2012). Thus, the gross margin is expected to show QoQ improvement in 4Q2012 and provide a reasonable cushion in the company’s profitability during the shutdown period.

• Eastern Petrochemical - Sharq plant halted its operations for 10 weeks started from September 2012 to conduct its annual maintenance.

� Impact will be on SABIC; where the estimates of SABIC are also adjusted with YANSAB and Sharq shutdowns.

• SAFCO earnings per share is adjusted with the new number of shares i.e. 333.3mn (post bonus shares). In addition, based on the ongoing geo-political risk and location of the company’s key producing plants, we add 5% premium (of possible increase in the prices; in case of increase in geo-political tension) to the company’s DCF based valuation and; thus arrived at an updated 12-month prices target of SAR145.0/share (as indicated in the below table).

• Industries Qatar announced the inauguration of its new production line at QAFCO-6. However, QoQ expected decline in the company’s profitability, during 4Q2012, is mainly associated with lower sales from MTBE plant; on account of decline in supply of CO2, as per the company’s business plan 2012-16. In addition, according to the company’s business plan 2012-16, the company will start its new CO2 plant in 1H2014 to overcome the shortage of the respective feedstock; and this will allow MTBE plant to resume its full-scale operations. It should be noted that estimated YoY growth in the profitability is mainly associated with (i) commencement of QAFCO-5 in 1H2012, (ii) expected start of operations at 3rd ethylene plant (EP-3) & 3rd LDPE plant (LDPE-3) of QPACO in 4Q2012 and (iii) YoY higher capacity utilization at steel plant.

National Industrialization Company (Tasnee)

We have revisited our estimations of Tansee (as indicated in the following table) and made adjustments in accordance with the prevailing dynamics of Titanium di Oxide (TiO2), a flagship product of the company. The product priceswitnesseda significantQoQdeclineof 9.6%;whereYoYdeclinewas recordedat 6.0%,during thequarter underreview. According to the company sources, the decline in prices was mainly associated with the unfavorable demand outlook of TiO2, at least in short to medium term. It should be noted that the company also has considerable exposure in troubled economies i.e. Europe.

Based on the given information, the upcoming expansion based on the (i) establishment of metal smelter - expected to complete in 2014, (ii) acrylic plant - expected commencement in 2H2013 and Polyol plant - expected to start in 2015; hence, we have not incorporated in our estimations; is indicating the company’s focus to broaden the product line and reduce dependence on TiO2.

Weadjustedourvaluation,inaccordancewith3Q-2012financialresults&updatesmentionedearlier,andarrivedatanweighted average 12-month prices target of SAR28.7/share (as compared to our earlier weighted average 12-month price target of SAR43.3/share). This indicates the company is offering a potential upside of 3.6% over the market price of SAR27.7/share (as of 25th Dec 2012). We, therefore, downgrade our recommendation for the stock to ‘Neutral’.

Analyst comments on 4Q2012 estimates; We believe the expected decline in minority interest in 4Q2012 (as company’s normal practice to recognize low minority interest in 4Q) will remain a key reason of QoQ expected growth in net profitability.

Telecom SectorResult preview . 4Q-2012

Sector update

• We expect the Saudi Telecom sector to benefit from the Hajj season which fell during the start of the quarter. As a result we have expected a rise in company’s profitability.

• Etihad Etisalat (Mobily) we believe will have an added impetuous of IPhone 5 sales which was introduced in the Kingdom on 13th Dec 2012. With more than half a month at Mobily’s disposal we expect the company to show strong performance due to Iphone 5 sales.

• QTEL’s 122% Y/Y growth is expected due to lower contribution towards minority interest. We already highlighted the fact in our QTEL initiation report that the company has increased its stake in Wataniya (Kuwait) from 52.5% to 92.1%.

KSA Cement SectorResult preview . 4Q-2012

Sector update

• The Saudi cement sector as expected has shown a recovery in its dispatches after the slow Ramadan and Hajj holiday season. Over all dispatches have been going according to our expectation.

• However Qassim cement company has been showing low utilization level over the last couple of months. Given the weakness in dispatches we have expected a QoQ fall in earnings.

• Arabian cement company is also expected to show a decline in earnings because of the shut down in one of its mills due to fire. The company noted that it will lose 1000 tons per day of clinker production for at least 4 months from 9th Oct-2012.

KSA Food & Agriculture SectorResult preview . 4Q-2012

Sector update

• Almarai Company (on 15th Dec 2012) announced that it got all necessary clearance to start its infant formula food operation; and hence, the company is ready to produce stage 1, 2 and 3 products i.e. Almarai Enfamil and Almarai Enfagrow. We, therefore, adjusted the company’s 4Q2012 earnings, accordingly; and considered 15 days impact in 4Q2012 (as the plant was under trail phase since early 2H2012), where we were initially expecting the commencement of infant food plant in mid 4Q2012. In addition, we believe, due to rigid milk & dairy pricing practice in KSA and rise in production cost, the company’s profitability margins will continue to remain under pressure during 4Q2012.

• Aljouf Development Company (Aljouf) is expecting to reap olive; where, according to a press release, the impact will be observed in 4Q2012 and 1Q2013. On the other hand, the company reduced the value of its Yellow corn (maize) contract with Arasco to SAR34.0mn from SAR45.0mn; where the decline in value is mainly associated with the downward revision in volumes. The contract will be effective in 4Q2012 and thus the financial impact will be observed in 4Q2012 and 1Q2013.

Sector update

• Dar Alarkan primary revenue generator is its land sales. For 4Q-2012 we have expected the company to sell 1.25mn sqm of land, at realization of SAR 583/sqm.

• We are expecting Emaar properties to show improvement in its villa sales. As in the last couple of quarters realization per unit has been low due to low villa sales. However during 4Q-12, higher villa sales will result in improvement in per unit realization.

KSA Retail SectorResult preview . 4Q-2012

Sector update

• Non-food sector witnessed the following key developments in 4Q2012;

� Induction of IPhone-5, IPad-3, including IPad-mini, Samsung galaxy note II, Nokia-Lumia 820 & 920 and Windows-8. We believe the potential beneficiary will be Jarir marketing company (Jarir); where the company has full range of other smart gadgets (including old version of gadgets) to sell. We, therefore, consider the combination of selling new & old smart gadgets and other electronic items will lead to support in YoY growth in Jarir’s 4Q2012 profitability, as indicated in the table below.

� On fashion apparel front, the quarter (similar to the corresponding quarter last year) remained silent since no major event took place that could derive the demand of related products. Hence, the expected YoY growth in Alhokair profitability is mainly associated with the induction of NESK group along with the addition of new brands throughout 2012.

• No major event related to the food retail company (AlOthaim), under our coverage, happened in 4Q2012. Hence, the expected 4Q2012 financial growth is mainly based on the generic demand of goods, during 4Q2012.

KSA industrial investment sectorResult preview . 4Q-2012

Sector update

• Key developments witnessed in industrial investment sector, based on our coverage, are mainly related to Saudi Arabian Mining Company (Ma’aden) i.e.

(i) Initial commencement of Aluminum smelter; where the facility (till the start of operation at al-Baitha mine and alumina refinery in 1H2014) will use the required feedstock from Alcoa (25% stakeholder in Ma’aden Aluminum Company-MAC) to produce Aluminum metal. We believe the company will be able to start selling the related aluminum product in 1Q2013; and hence, no financial impact is expected in 4Q2012.

(ii) Moody announced the possible downgrade of Alcoa credit rating (to junk rating) due to the significant decline in aluminum prices. It should be noted that Ma’aden has not made any comments on the news; and hence, we are unable to quantify the impact of the news in our estimations.

• The expected YoY decline in Astra profitability in 4Q2012 is mainly due to the higher operating expense & lower other income, in accordance with the preceding quarter.
