Saudi market valuation not testing
The Saudi market has been one of the poorest performing emerging markets year-to- date, underperforming the MSCI EM indices by approximately 10% (and c20% since August 2015). A combination of weak oil prices and their inevitable impact on the Saudi economy including slowing economic growth, rising operational risks and fiscal consolidation (including subsidy removals) have been the key drivers. The underperformance has left the market trading on a 12mth P/E of c.13x, an 11% discount to its long term average and its lowest premium to GEMs since 2010 (Saudi trades on a 7% percent premium vs long run average of c. 30%). Furthermore, Saudi trades on 12mth FWD P/B ratio of 1.5x, a 20% discount to long run averages, but a 15% premium to GEMs on 1.3x, justified by the market’s higher ROE’s (Saudi’s long term P/B premium has been c.25%). Finally, Saudi trades on 12mth FWD EV/EBITDA multiples of 9x, a c.11% discount to long run averages.
