  1. July 6 , 2017 Earnings Estimates Q2 2017 Summary The report shows our second quarter 2017 earnings estimates for companies under coverage. The second quarter of 2017 coincided with periodic seasons which are the beginning of summer vacation and Ramadan, while at the end of this quarter coincided with Eid Al-Fitr, so we expect that many companies will be affected by previous factors and seasonality of each sector. In addition, the impact of government's decision to return back the allowances and financial benefits for state employees on consumer spending. On the other hand, starting from Q1 2017 listed companies started releasing their financial statements based on IFRS for the current period and reclassifying the corresponding period of last year. Banks We believe that the government's decision to return the allowances and the financial benefits to state employees will lead to an improvement in the demand of goods and services in whole economy .Also, thus going to reflect positively on the growth of deposits and loans compared to previous quarter and same quarter of last year. Total deposits of the banking sector are expected to increase slightly 0.83% YoY, while loans are expected to decline 1.6% YoY. Petrochemicals Petrochemical products prices have declined as well as oil prices in Q2 2017 compared to Q1 2017, while they are still considered high compared to the same period last year. Meanwhile, fertilizer products slightly decreased compared to the same period last year. Telecommunications The demand for telecommunications services increases for seasonal and social reasons during Ramadan and Eid Al-Fitr that coincided with Q2 2017. Cement Demand on cement is reduced significantly during the second quarter due to seasonality and high temperatures, in addition to the month of Ramadan that coincided with the second quarter in this year. Cement sales reached 9.2 million tons in April and May falling by 18% YoY due to lower demand compared to 2016. We expect cement sales to fall below 12 million tons in Q2 2017. On the other hand, clinker inventory levels improved slightly at the beginning of the second quarter, recording 28.5 million tons by the end of May 2017, compared to the levels recorded by the end of Q1 2017. Retail The second quarter of this year came at the peak demand for consumer products supported by Ramadan sales. We also expect some retail companies to be positively affected by the return of allowances and benefits to employees, which boosted the purchasing power of consumers. Health Care We expect that health care companies are negatively affected during Ramadan, which is mainly due to the reduction of official working hours, in addition to being adversely affected by the summer vacation.
