Tatneft
Dividends instigated, stock rallies
According to a company announcement today, Tatneft's Board of Directors has recommended interim dividends of RUB 27.78 (USD 0.47) per share for both ordinary and preferred shares for 9mo17, which is above our forecast and the Bloomberg-reported market estimates for the full year. The prices of Tatneft’s ords and prefs have jumped 9% and 12%, respectively. Following the news, we are raising our DDM-based 12-month Target Price for prefs 2% to USD 6.70 but downgrading our recommendation to Hold (from Buy) since, as a result of the stock’s appreciation, the ETR is now only 10% (at the market price as of 15.30, MSK). Our 12-month Target Price of ords is unchanged at USD 7.60 and we are reiterating our Hold recommendation on the back of the 1% ETR it implies (at the market price as of 15.30, MSK).
Outperforming our forecast and market estimates. The company's dividend guidance for investors (although not an official policy yet) is to pay not less than 50% of IFRS net income. The proposed dividends imply a payout of 75% of the reported net income under Russian Accounting Standards (RAS) for 9mo17 and 72% of IFRS net income for the same period, we forecast. As a result, the DPS for 9mo17 was 12% above our forecast and the market estimates of RUB 24.7 (USD 0.42) for 2017 as a whole. This translates into dividend yields of 5.8% and 7.7% (not annualised) for ordinary and preferred shares, respectively. Despite the strong interim dividends, we expect the payout ratio for 4Q17 to be 50%. Thus, the DPS might reach RUB 32.5 (USD 0.55), which implies dividend yields of 8.9% and 6.8% for prefs and ords (at the market prices as of 15.30, MSK), respectively. We note that we are not changing our forecast of a 50% payout ratio beyond 2017 in our model. The dividend is subject to approval by shareholders during the EGM on 12 December. The record date for the EGM is 17 November. The preliminary ex-dividend is 23 December.
TP increase, market rally and downgrade to Hold. In our Change of Recommendation note entitled Tatneft — Credit where credit’s due, of 27 April 2017, we moved our valuation methodology for Tatneft’s prefs to DDM. As a result of the strong interim dividends for 9mo17, we are increasing our 12-month Target Price for Tatneft’ prefs 2% to USD 6.70. Following the announcement, the prices for the ords and prefs have jumped 9% and 12%, respectively. After the rally in the name, there is only 10% upside potential to our new TP (for an ETR of 10%, at the market price indicated above) so we are downgrading our recommendation to Hold on technical grounds. Our Hold recommendation for ords is reiterated as our unchanged 12-month Target Price of USD 7.60 implies an ETR of 1%.
