Bangladesh Steel Re-Rolling Mills Limited

(DSE: BSRMLTD, Bloomberg: ……...)

26 April 2015

Key revenue and investment drivers for the company:

BSRM Group is the strongest brand and market leader in the local industry. The

market share of the Group in quality steel production is about 26% as of

December 2013.

Due to the economic development the demand for MS rod is increasing day by

day. In Bangladesh annual demand for quality rod is estimated at more than 2.5

mn MT, where country usually consumes over 1.7 mn tons of MS road (or 70% of

its annual demand in the peak season).

BSRML is undergoing a balance modernization rehabilitation and expansion

program to enhance its annual production capacity from 120,000 MT to 450,000

MT (+275% Capacity expansion) to meet up the growing demand of MS rods in

the country.

In 2013 the company’s revenue was BDT 8,602.4 mn. For increasing revenue,

they started BMRE program that help them to increase capacity.

As per the prospectus, BSRMLTD was planning to make equity investment of

BDT 1.32 bn in BSRM Steel Mills Limited. This is a proposed project for the

production of 862,000 MT MS Billet per year. Land acquisition for the project has

already completed and other installations are continuing in full swing. The project

is expected to go into commercial operation from January 2015.

The company also holds 31.2% in BSRM Steels Limited, which is a listed entity.

On average COGS is 94% of the revenue, so the margin can be enhanced

through higher efficiency and any fall in input costs (like price of scrap and billets,

both procured at lower price locally and internationally).

Several projects (like flyovers in Dhaka & Chittagong, Dhaka Elevated

Expressway, Dhaka-Chittagong 4-lane project including its bridges and culverts,

Saidabad Water Treatment Plant 2nd Phase, Purbachal Housing Project, Tongi-

Bhairab double way Rail line and many power plant projects) require huge

quantity of MS Re-Bars. The biggest opportunity for Bangladesh Steel Sector is

that there is enormous scope for increasing consumption of steel in almost all the

sectors.

Key risk and challenges:

Potential dilution of BSRMLTD shares - conversion of debt securities hold by

institutions will create dilution effect (i.e. on EPS and BV) by about 3.2% on post

IPO no of shares. Additional number of shares of 5.59 mn will be added to post

IPO number of shares of 173.4 mn (to total of 178.9 mn).

As of December 2013, the company has BDT 5,529.9 mn outstanding loans. Steel

industry being a capital intensive is heavily dependent on debt fund. Fluctuation of

interest rates (cost of borrowed funds) affects the profitability as well as liquidity

position of a company. Debt repayment through IPO proceeds will only reduce its

interest bearing debt to assets ratio to 24.7% from 26.2%.

BSRML’s business and profitability from core operation has been consistently

reducing as observed from the trend of last three years. Revenue growth for 2013

was negative 38.7% YoY and only 4.1% positive growth in last 3-years. Such kind

of substantial revenue fall in 2013 was due to fall of delivery of external product

coupled with reduced price of final product.

The company collects its raw materials from its sister concerns and overseas

countries. So the rise in input can only be compensated through increasing the

selling price without compromising the quality. Such increase in price may push

the company to sell the graded rod at comparatively higher prices lowering its

market competitiveness.

Many companies started production of high grade MS Rod & other MS products

and selling thereof. Among them 2/3 companies are emerging as giant in respect

of investment in this sector and others are in the process to increase their

production capacity. Expected high competition in the markets where the

Company sells its products may erode its market share and may result in reduced

prices and thereby may negatively affect BSRM‟s revenues and profitability.

Vulnerable political situation that experienced in the recent time has adversely

affected the industry. This situation may come any time thus the company is

exposed to political instability risk.

Source : Company Report and CBC Research , April 2015

Revenue breakdown (for 2013)

Bangladesh has around 300 steel producing

factories where 200 are re-rolling mills.

Bangladesh's annual demand for quality rod

is estimated at more than 2.5 mn MT, where country usually consumes over 1.7 mn tones of MS road (or 70% of its annual demand in the peak season).

The expected growth rate is approx. 10%.

BSRM Group is the market leader in the

steel sector.

The main competitors are Abul Khair Steels

Limited (AKS), Kabir Steel Re-Rolling Mills Limited(KSRML), Seema Steel Re-Rolling Mills Limited(Seema) , Rahim Steel Mills Limited(RSML), GPH Ispat Limited (GPH), Ratanpur Steels Limited, Baizid Steel, Anwar Ispat Limited.

These competitors (excluding BSRM Group)

are producing about 30% of total quality

steel demand of Bangladesh.

Part of the debt will be converted to equity,

which will dilute the post IPO number of shares (by 3.2%).

BDT 5,529.9 mn outstanding loans as of

December 2013.

Revenue growth for 2013 was negative

38.7% YoY and only 4.1% positive growth in

last 3-years.

Profitability of the associates will push

the earning capacity of the company, conditional to that they pay dividend in cash form.
