KFM German Mittelstand AG
Dusseldorf (
www.anleihencheck.de) - In its current KFM SME bond barometer for the 6.375% bond of Raffinerie Heide GmbH, KFM Deutsche Mittelstand AG concludes that the bond is now rated as "average attractive (positive outlook)" ( 3.5 out of 5 possible stars).
The origins of the Heide refinery date back to 1940, when a crude oil distillation plant with an annual capacity of 100,000 tonnes was put into operation. Since the start of production, the plant has been successively expanded from a pure crude oil distillation to a combined plant. For example, the product range today mainly includes gas oil products, but also further processed products such as diesel, gasoline and kerosene as well as petrochemical products such as aromatics and olefins. In 2010, the refinery was acquired by the Klesch Group from Shell Germany.
The refinery Heide is located about 100 km northwest of Hamburg near heathland in Schleswig-Holstein. Through its own pipeline network, the refinery has direct access to the port of Brunsbüttel, through which both the supply of raw materials and the supply of customers can be handled, as well as to the cavern storage of the oil storage in Heide. In addition, the refinery has its own storage facilities and its own power plant. The company is one of the leading refineries in Europe in terms of complexity (Nelson index).
Due to the processing of crude oil, there is only an indirect dependence of the company's success on the price of oil. The key earnings driver of the business model is the refining margin. By focussing on higher-level products and the high level of integration with suppliers and customers, the company's ability to plan and profit will be improved.
In the first nine months of 2018, the Heide refinery was able to increase its sales. Turnover after energy taxes rose from € 1.576 billion (9M 2017) by 9.2% to € 1.698 billion (9M 2018). However, EBITDA had dropped to EUR 25.7 million, earnings after taxes amounted to EUR -19.6 million, compared to EUR 37.6 million in the previous period of 2017. The reason for this is mainly increased crude oil prices. The natural gas price has increased by 54%. Likewise, decreasing sales prices (margin) for chemical products (EUR -9.8 million) would have led to a decline in the so-called "gross refinery margin".
The increase in CO 2 emission allowances, unfavorable US dollar / euro exchange rates and two interruptions in production due to scheduled cleaning of the refineries ("cleaning shut downs") in the first nine months of 2018 also contributed to the unfavorable development. In addition, the result had become due to an exceptional market situation in hedging transactions. The equity ratio also fell from 12.1% to 5.6% as at 30.09.2018 due to a dividend payment of EUR 20 million already announced in the securities prospectus.
The bond issued by the refinery Heide GmbH in November 2017 was p.a. with a coupon of 6.375%. (Interest payment semi-annually on 01.04. And 01.10.) Equipped and have a term until 01.12.2022. As part of the bond issue, 250 million euros were placed. Early redemption options for the Issuer are provided for in the bond terms from 01.12.2019 to 103.188%, from 01.12.2020 to 101.594% and from 01.12.2021 to 100% of the nominal value. EUR 200 million of the issue volume should be used to pay a dividend and thus adjust the financing structure. The bond is collateralised with guarantees and various collateral, as well as various covenants such as a limitation on debt, distributions and liens.
Due to its geographical location, the integration of suppliers and customers, its own storage and pipeline capacities as well as its diversified product range, the Heide refinery has an attractive market position. Through optimization measures, the profitability of the plant could be successively and sustainably increased, so that the debt sustainability is considered given. The negative circumstances of the first nine months should be temporary in the view of KFM Deutsche Mittelstand AG. In conjunction with the attractive return of 11.34% p.a. (Price of 85.20% on 26.11.2018), the estimate of the 6.375% refinery Heide bond on "average attractive (positive outlook)" (3.5 out of 5 possible stars) is withdrawn, says KFM Deut
