Having a slice of the steel pie! Decisionunderwrite and inturn hold 37.39% of DSteel Ltd. is indicative of strong future as the higher demand for steel productsindicative of major growth in this sector
Increase use of technology will also be in creating more diverse products andfurthering the awerness of insurance prin Pakistan.
Going into the tracker business through100% ownership of its upcoming trackebusiness. named Crescent Start Track(Private) Ltd. Given the rapid rise in movehicles this sector also shows great pr
Venture into the food business through Chick. Tapping into immense potential in the food industry in Pakistan.
Future Outlook – Business Diversifi cation into High-growth Ventures
Golden Chick: The company plans to invest approximately PKR 70 million in its wholly-owned subsidiary,
Crescent Star Foods (CSF), and is set to bring Texas-based US fried chicken chain, Golden Chick, to Pakistan.
Through CSF the company is expected to offer 7 million ordinary shares at PKR 10/share, and is planning on
retaining 30% shares of the newly owned subsidiary, as per the financials. The first outlet is expected to open by
1QFY16. The initial plan is to open up 3 outlets with an expansion target to 30 within the next 10 years (or donemuch earlier depending upon the growth and returns). Given the high demand for chicken, approximately
864,000 tones, in Pakistan together with KFC being the only major competitor dealing purely in chicken while
offering only fried chicken, the venture seems ideal to target Pakistan’s consumption-driven population with
improving per capita thru soft inflation given weak oil price outlook. Interestingly, the venture is expected to take
up much of the market share based on: i) new brand with expectedly much better service and ambiance than its
competitors to attract young population (under 20s being about 50% of the population), and ii) offering both the
Chicken Roast as well as Chicken Fried ranges, unlike any other chicken brand offerings in Pakistan. Further,
beside Pakistan market, Golden Chick license covering GCC should serve as an edge to CSF, thus capitalizing
huge growth potential in the GCC.
Dost Steels Limited: CSIL will also be the underwriter (3QFY16) of
shares worth up to PKR 450 million of Dost Steels Limited (DSL),
which is expected to be a major market player in the steel industry inthe near future. DSL currently has a plant to manufacture direct
reduced iron, sponge iron, hot briquetted iron, carbon steel, pig iron
and special alloy steel in different forms. The company also has the
ability to manufacture hot rolled high tensile and allied products. DSL’s
major focus is on reinforcement bars (REBARS). It is the largest re-
rolling mills in Pakistan which has the capacity to produce 350,000
tons of high strength rebar annually. Moreover, DSL is in collaboration
with Siemens and Ansaldo, both leading companies in R&D, which
help provide state-of-the-art hot rolling mill plants. DSL’s unique Bar
Quenching technique helps it produce top quality superior products
which will help it stay on top of the market. The project is expected to
be commercially viable by Mar 30, 2016, as per discussion with the
management, since most of the ~PKR 800mn loan-related
restructuring issues have been resolved with the consortium of banks.
CSIL is expected to hold 37.39% of DSL which will help it reap benefits
in the shape of future profits guaranteed by a burgeoning steel
industry. Further, the steel plant is ideally located in the Punjab
province where most of the construction and infrastructure
development activities are taking place while given the initiation on
China-Pakistan Economic Corridor, DSL is expected to have benefit
the most from expected rise in steel demand.
Crescent Star Tracker: With an investment of PKR 25mn, CSIL is expected to hold 100% of its new venture,
Crescent Start Tracker. This venture will help take advantage of the growing transportation sector in Pakistan
resulting in increased demand for trackers and associated devices. The plan is to start from Oct-15, and is
expected to be completed by Sep-16.
Technology Upgrades: Given the rapid use of technology in the insurance sector in 2015,
the company itself is investing huge sums in technology and products to be sold through technology. Use and
advancement in technology will help the company tap into markets for individual clients in the health/travel
sectors and other growing areas of microfinance. It will also help reduce management expenses and increase
front-end and back-end efficiencies, resulting in better business margins. Moreover, through technology more
products will be accessible to the public hence increasing awareness for insurance products.

Value Analysis The Valuation technique used to estimate the expected/indicative/targeted PE multiple for CSIL is ‘Sum of The
Parts’ RoE methodology. The technique in essence makes use of regional and local price earnings multiples to
derive the firm’s expected/estimated/targeted multiple incorporating returns on its various business ventures;
including food, tracking and steel, which are expected to be added in the near future.
For the insurance aspect of CSIL, we made use of a mix of regional and local multiples of the insurance industry.
The resulting benchmark PE multiple attributed for the insurance segment comes out to be 13.8x.
CSIL’s expected tracking business constitutes an investment value of PKR25 million in Crescent Star Tracker
(Private) Limited. With a 100% stake in the company, we derive the company’s EPS conservatively by taking an
estimated average estimated ROE of only 10%. We use a mix of regional and local multiples of companies
capped under USD100mn of the size, to arrive at targeted PE multiple of 15x.
CSIL’s venture in the food business is comprised of an initial investment of PKR70mn in the Texas-based U.S
fried chicken chain, Golden Chick. According to the management, CSIL is expected to hold 30% of this venture

eventually. The PE multiple of this business can only be driven through regional peer multiples. The resultant
targeted PE for the food business clocks in at a conservative PKR 20.8x.
CSIL’s largest investment of up to PKR450mn is expected to be made in DSL through right issue, with a holding
of 37.4%. For our calculations, we removed anomalies in a list of approximately 200 regional/local steel firms. As
of now, we have made a conservative ROE assumption of only 4% by taking an average of the positive RoEs of
the local and regional companies. The resultant targeted PE multiple for the business stands at 17.3x. Finally, if we take the summation of all the relative portions of the targeted PE multiples, it gives us an
expected/estimated annualized EPS of PKR 1.1 while a targeted multiple of 16.1x for CSIL, resulting in an
indicative FV of PKR 18.0/share, provided all the said business ventures of the company go through smooth as
expected.
