Alrosa
TP increase and 3Q18 preview
We increase our TP for Alrosa by 4% to RUB106 as higher diamond realisations increase our medium-term earnings forecasts by up to 6%. Alrosa is scheduled to report 3Q18 financial results on 8 November 2018. We maintain our BUY rating.
Our earnings forecasts benefit from higher sales realisations
We increase our medium-term earnings by up to 6% following Alrosa’s 3Q18 operational results on 22 October 2018, as we incorporate higher-than-previously- forecast gem diamonds realisations over the medium term. Alrosa’s 3Q18 diamond production grew 2% YoY, but came in 5% below our forecast. FY18 production guidance remained at 36.6mn cts, in line with our forecast. Alrosa achieved realised prices for gem diamonds of $199/ct which were significantly higher than our forecast of $164/ct. This implies a 97% realisation compared with the rough diamond index price in 3Q18. We have recalibrated our model to take these higher realisations into account and increased our forecast realisation percentage relative to the rough diamond index from 76% previously to 78-80% over the medium term.
3Q18 financial results preview
Alrosa 3Q18 results are due tomorrow (8 November). We forecast the following for 3Q18:
▪EBITDA growth of 30% YoY to RUB35,371mn
▪Net profit growth of 76% YoY to RUB22,732mn
▪Net debt declining by 67% YoY to RUB29,323mn
Key risks to our investment stance
Among the biggest downside risks to our earnings forecasts and valuation are lower- than-forecast diamond prices or a stronger rouble; lower-than-forecast gem diamond production; less or poorer-quality reserves/resources than disclosed; sanctions against Alrosa; and the potential for the government to raise royalties and taxes, or required social infrastructure investment for Alrosa in particular or for the sector in general. Upside risks stem from the converse of the above factors.
