MENA Strategy | MubasherTrade Beat-Miss Index (BMi) | UAE

Tuesday, 22 September 2015

Appendix

The BMi Methodology

The formula we use to calculate the Beat/Miss Index (BMi) is basically a weighted average of the beat, in line, and miss rates:

𝐵𝑒𝑎𝑡 𝑅𝑎𝑡𝑒 ∗ 100 + 𝐼𝑛 𝐿𝑖𝑛𝑒 𝑅𝑎𝑡𝑒 ∗ 50 + 𝑀𝑖𝑠𝑠 𝑅𝑎𝑡𝑒 ∗ 0 = 𝐵𝑀𝑖

where …

• Beat Rate = Number of companies beating estimates as a percentage of companies with consensus. • In Line Rate = Number of companies in line with estimates as a percentage of companies with consensus. • Miss Rate = Number of companies missing estimates as a percentage of companies with consensus. For revenues, we define a “beat/miss” when the actual results come off consensus by ± 2%. For earnings, we define a “beat/miss” when the actual results come off consensus by ± 5%.

Important Disclosures METHODOLOGY: We strive to search for the best businesses that trade at the lowest valuation levels as measured by an issuer’s intrinsic value on a per-share basis. In doing so, we follow both top-down and bottom-up approaches. Under the top-down approach, we attempt to study the most important quantitative and qualitative factors that we believe can affect a security's value, including macroeconomic, sector-specific, and company-specific factors. Under the bottom-up approach, we focus on the analysis of individual stocks by running our proprietary scoring model, including valuation, financial performance, sentiment, trading, risk, and value creation.

COUNTRY MACRO RATINGS: We analyze the four main sectors of a country’s macroeconomics, then we assign , , and star for low risk, moderate risk, and high risk, respectively. We use different weights for each economic sector: (a) Real Sector (35% weight), (b) Monetary Sector (15% weight), (c) Fiscal Sector (25% weight), and (d) External Sector (25% weight).

STOCK MARKET RATINGS: We compare our year-end price targets for the subject market index on a total-return basis versus our calculated required rate of return (RRR). Taking into account our Country Macro Rating, we set the “Neutral” borderline (below which is “Underweight”) as 20% of RRR for Country Macro Rating, 40% of RRR for Country Macro Rating, and 60% of RRR for Country Macro Rating. That said, our index price targets are based on the average of two models. Model (1): Estimated index levels based on consensus price targets of all index constituents. Stocks with no price targets are valued at market price. Model (2): Estimated index levels based on our expected re-pricing (whether re-rating, de-rating, or unchanged rating) of the forward price-earnings ratio (PER) of each index in addition to consensus earnings growth for the forward year.

SECTOR RATINGS: On the sectors level, we focus on six major sectors, namely (1) Consumer and Health Care, (2) Financials, (3) Industrials, Energy, & Utilities, (4) Materials, (5) Real Estate, and (6) Telecom Services & IT. To assess each sector, we use the SWOT analysis to list the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats in each country. We then translate our qualitative SWOT analysis into a quantitative model to evaluate all six sectors across countries. Each of the measures we used, although mostly subjective, is assigned a score as either +1 (high impact), 0 (medium impact), or -1 (low impact). At a later stage, when assigning the final rating – Overweight, Neutral, or Underweight – for each sector in each country, we realize that sometimes it is unfair to assign equal weights for the sub-sectors in each major sector assessed. Hence, some of the sub-sectors are given different weights for their significant profile in each country. Additionally, the final rating for each sector in each specific country is assigned based on a relative calculation comparing this sector to all other sectors in this country.

SECURITY INVESTMENT RATINGS: We combine intrinsic value, relative valuation, and market sentiment into a single rating. Our three-pronged methodology involves (1) discounted cash flows “DCF” valuation model(s), (2) relative valuation metrics, and (3) overall sentiment. Whenever possible we attempt to apply all three aspects on the issuers or securities under review. In certain cases where we do not have our own financial and valuation models, we attempt to scan the market for other analysts’ value estimates and ratings (i.e. consensus view) on average. We compliment this with relative valuation and sentiment drivers, such as positive/neutral/negative news flows. For all issuers/securities covered, we have three investment ratings (Buy, Hold, or Sell), comparing the security’s expected total return (including both price performance and expected cash dividend) over a 12-month period versus its Required Rate of Return “RRR” as calculated using the Capital Asset Pricing Model “CAPM” and adjusted for the Risk Rating we attach to each security. Our price targets are subjective and are estimates of the analysts where the securities covered will trade within the next 12 months. Price targets can be derived from earnings-based valuation models (e.g. Discounted Cash Flow “DCF”), asset-based valuation models (e.g. Net Asset Value “NAV”), relative valuation multiples (e.g. PER, PBV, EV/EBITDA, etc.), or a combination of them. In case we do not have our own valuation model, we use a weighted average of market consensus price targets and ratings. We review the investment ratings periodically or as the situation necessitates.

SECURITY RISK RATINGS: We assess the risk profile of each issuer/security covered and assign one of three risk ratings (High, Moderate, or Low). The risk rating is weighted to reflect different aspects specific to (1) the sector, (2) the issuer, (3) the security under review, and (4) volatility versus the market (as measure by beta) and versus the security’s average annualized standard deviation. We review the risk ratings at least annually or as the situation necessitates.
