Gas Malaysia Berhad (GMB) announced that effective 1 Nov 2014, the average natural gas tariff for the non-power sector will increase by 2.3% to RM19.77/MMbtu from RM19.32/MMbtu. (Source: Bursa Malaysia) Comments: We are neutral on this development, as we do not expect a material change in earnings in the short term, since the revised higher tariff will be accompanied by an upward adjustment of the gas purchase price from PETRONAS. In addition, the quantum of increase is relatively small. Recall that the previous increase was on 1 May 2014 when the tariff increased by 20.2%.
The gas purchase price takes into account the blended price of regulated domestic natural gas as well as the Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) market price based on the volume to be purchased by Gas Malaysia. Higherthan-expected gas volumes sold may be detrimental but only to nearterm earnings, as we gather from management that Gas Malaysia will be allowed a clawback in following year’s gas volume agreement with PETRONAS. We maintain REDUCE on GMB with an unchanged PT of RM3.35.
