Executive Summary (Contd)
On the local scene, the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has released a statement that it will no longer allow oil companies buy US dollars at the bi-weekly auctions, to fund importation of products. The CBN criticized oil companies for the recent upward trend in the demand pressure of the U.S. dollar, leading to a depreciation in value of the local currency. In addition, the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) anticipated a growth 0f 8.84 per cent in the non-oil sector for 2011 compared to 8.49 recorded in 2010. On accumulation, the economy when measured by the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is projected to grow by 7.98 per cent in the current year, as against 7.85 per cent recorded in the previous year. The 2012 fiscal year may usher in the end of fuel subsidy, the Federal government recently re-evaluated its plans to eliminate fuel subsidy beginning from January 2012. Research analyst have estimated that the removal of the subsidy is expected to save the government about N1.20 trillion. A section of the fund would be utilized for the provision of safety nets for low income earners. Liquidity pressure tightened in the financial system in the week under review, as the Nigeria Interbank Offer Rates (NIBOR) increased across all tenors. This was as a result of the outflow of funds for FX funding at the CBN Wholesale Dutch Auction System (WDAS), amidst Open Market Operations (OMO) of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN). During the week under review, average bond yields rose, just as their prices decreased. This was as a result of reduced demand amidst the liquidity pressure at the interbank market. On a Week-on-Week basis, the Naira depreciated against the dollar by 0.52 per cent at the official window and 2.91 per cent at the inter-bank forex to close at N155.40/$ and $164.25/$, respectively.

OUTLOOK
We are of the view that equity investors may remain wary on the floor of the NSE, on the back of the decision of the Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) of the CBN to increase the Monetary Policy Rate (MPR), as investorsappetite may drift towards the Money and Fixed Income Markets, despite the survival of the rescued banks which drove market activities during the first two trading days of the week under review.

Ashaka Cement Plc (Ashakacem) became a subsidiary of Lafarge Group, the world leader in building materials in July 2001 after the acquisition of Blue Circle Industries Plc. The companys principal activities are the manufacturing and marketing of cement products. The company has maintained a reputation of consistent dividend and bonus history. Consequently, investors expectation of bounty returns at the end of their financial year will trigger the demand for the stock. The company believes that ongoing advances in building materials must integrate respect for people, their different needs and their environment. This strong conviction is reflected in a strategy that combines industrial knowhow with performance, value creation, respect for employees & local cultures, environmental protection and conservation of natural resources & energy. The companys full year result ended December 31, 2010, shows that Turnover increased by 11.40 per cent from N17.19 billion in 2009 to N19.15 billion in 2010. Profit After Tax (PAT) surged by 218.35 per cent from N943.62 million to N3.00 billion when compared to the same period in the preceding year.

The increase in earnings has been attributed to the rise in cement prices during the financial year as a result of increased public projects in terms of infrastructural development. It was also noted that the impact of the global financial crisis, which crippled the economy in 2008 is beginning to ease. Meanwhile, the strength of the Company resides in its ownership of a completed power project for production, the advantage it derives from the technical alliance with other leading companies in the sector, its domineering status in some regions of the country, and its capability to expand and take advantage of emerging opportunities. The beta of the stock is 0.97, while the one-year Standard Deviation of the stock marginally fell to 2.63% from 2.64% recorded last week.

DSR has relied mainly on retained earnings to support its growth in the past, and this strategy accounted for the non-payment of dividend for some years. This has helped the company to maintain consistent growth. Meanwhile, the Board of Directors of the company that earlier promised quarterly dividend in 2009, resolved to change the quarterly dividend policy of the company as a result of difficulty in the payment process, and failure of the policy to impact noticeably on the market valuation of the shares of the company. With an EPS of 0.71, the trailing P/E Ratio of the company stood at 10.20x, lower than the sectors 17.18x. The company proposed a dividend per share of N0.60, resulting in a dividend yield of 8.29%, compared to the sectoral average dividend yield of 2.47%. Our technical analysis shows that the stock price is attractive for long term investment, as the 100-day MA is slightly above the 200-day MA. The one year Return prospect of the stock as estimated with the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) is 16.23%. The estimated oneyear Standard Deviation of the stock price decreased to 2.56% from 2.60% recorded last week.

DEFINITION OF TECHNICAL ANALYTICS TERMS

IMPORTANT DISCLOSURES

Other sources included the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) monthly reports, the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE) Price List, Greenwich Research Database, and National dailies.

Valuation Models and Methodology Applied in this Report


The equity analysis was conducted using a combination of valuation models, namely: Earnings (Historical), Forecasted Earnings, Dividends Basis, and Price to Book Basis. A weighted average of all these valuation methods was taken as the final estimated fair value of the stock. The weights applied were based on our perceived applicability of the models to the different sectors of the Nigerian economy. The forecasted earnings were derived using CAGR as a forecast factor over a period of time. The most recent profit after tax, which was used as the base, was forecasted five years into the future and the average of these five years was taken as the normalized earnings in the forecasted valuation model after discounting for present value equivalent. A five year time horizon was used in most cases in order to smoothen the returns as much as possible, so as to generate a realistic returns. Despite the five year forecast horizon, adjustments were still made where estimates seemed unrealistic. Good judgment and objectivity were displayed in deriving the estimates. CAPM, which is the Capital Asset Pricing Model, was used in this report to derive the expected investment returns for one year investment timeframe. Note that this is an expectation and that returns may be significantly higher or the expected returns may be achieved over a time period much less than one year. The risk-free rate of return was the current yield on the 20-year FGN Bond recently issued with a coupon rate of 10%, while market return is the weighted average of the sector returns on the Nigerian Stock Exchange. The betas of the stocks were calculated using market data covering 36 months. The price forecasts in the Report are for time horizon between 5 to 10 trading sessions. However, the forecasts may be achieved in a period less than 5 trading sessions. The forecast was based on an average of the CAGR for a 10-day trading period and the daily average growth rate of the stock price for the corresponding period. Good judgment was exercised in determining the current market trend and adjustments were made when we felt that the observed trend might not be attainable for the forecast horizon.
