  1. October3 , 2017 Earnings Estimates Q3 2017 Banks Summary The report shows our third quarter 2017 earnings estimates for companies under coverage. We believe the banking sector will witness a shift in operating conditions, which is likely to improve the sector's profitability margins. According to our analysis, total deposits are expected to expand 2.8% YoY and 0.47% QoQ. Loans portfolio are expected to decline slightly 0.49% YoY while growing 0.33% QoQ. Petrochemicals Petrochemical products prices have improved in Q3 2017 compared Q2 2017 due to the rise in oil prices. However, the prices of feedstock have also increased. The trends of fertilizers deferred YoY and QoQ. Cement Demand for cement is significantly reduced during the third quarter due to high temperatures, in addition to the Hajj season as well as summer vacation that coincided with the third quarter in this year. Cement sales reached 7.2 million tons in July and August falling 4% YoY resulting from lower demand compared to 2016, despite the addition of the sales of Umm Al-Qura Cement and United Cement during the current period. Therefore, we expect cement sales to fall below 10.5 million tons in Q3 2017. Meanwhile, clinker inventory reached recoded level of 33.4 million tons by the end of August 2017, compared to 31.2 million tons at the end of Q2 2017. Retail The new academic year starts in the Q3 2016 and thus will reflect positively on retail companies that sell school supplies. As for food and consumptions goods retailers, the situation will be different taking into account that lengthy summer vacations, and the coincidence of the second quarter with Ramadan. Agriculture and Food sector In this year, Ramadan fully coincided with Q2, therefore the second quarter acquired all the robust Ramadan sales. On the other hand, in the summer session, the demand level of dairy and juices products increase. Health Care The Hajj season and summer vacation is expected to negatively affect the results of health care companies during the third quarter, as the summer period witnesses a slowdown in demand for health services due to travel and long vacation. Telecommunications The demand for telecommunications services increase significantly during the pilgrimage session with the number of pilgrims edging up 26% this year to 2.35 million, including 1.75 visitors from outside the kingdom. This bodes well for the sector, however the third quarter also coincided with lengthy summer vacations and holidays, thus heavy travel outside the kingdom which has negative impacts on the demand for telecom services.
