THE BIG PICTURE: MACROECONOMIC PULSE
Egypt's annual inflation accelerated to 10.3% YoY as inflationary pressurescontinued to build. Meanwhile, inflation continued to stabilize in both KSAand Qatar at 4.2% YoY and 3.4% YoY, respectively. An increase in food andeducation prices pushed annual inflation higher to 1.63% in the UAE.
Egypt’s PMI rose to 46.9 in April staying in ‘contraction territory’ for theseventh consecutive month. In KSA, PMI declined marginally from 54.5 inMarch to 54.2 in April. Meanwhile, the UAE’s PMI recorded the weakest pacesince January to record 52.8 in April.
Egypt's reserves rose 2.7% MoM to USD17.01bn due to an increase in thevalue of foreign currencies. The CBE is expected to receive USD2bn depositfrom the UAE and a USD2.5bn grant from KSA. Moreover, KSA net foreignreserves decreased 15.7% YoY to USD572.2bn as investments in foreignsecurities declined 26% YoY. The UAE’s foreign assets went up 5.7% MoM.Qatar’s foreign reserve went down 0.9% MoM to USD35.7bn in April.
Pressure on both EGP and SAR resumed despite of the reports of aids from the UAE and KSA and recent oil prices rebound. A working paper released by SAMA regarding the kingdom’s exchange rate policy was said to initiate speculative attacks on the peg. We do believe GCC countries will maintain the USD peg. In Egypt, the current exchange rate would come under more pressure as pro-rate hike signs from the Fed strengthen the greenback.

Tax revenues went up from 6.2% to 7.6% of GDP as the Egyptian government targets tax base expansion. Meanwhile, compensation of employees went down to4.8% of the GDP in Jul-Feb FY2015/16 compared with 5.2% of the GDP a year earlier. In absolute terms. compensation of employees went up from EGP125.2bn inJul-Feb FY2014/15 to EGP134.9bn in Jul-Feb FY2015/16. However, the rate of wages growth was the lowest “in the last three fiscal years” backed by the reformswhich included the civil service bill. On the other hand, interest payments accelerated, reflecting more dependence on debt instruments. We note that interestpayments represent around 40% of total expenditures in July-Feb FY2015/16, compared with 27.5% a year earlier.

QATAR: MACRO
Qatar's M2 money supply growth rate remained negative on an annual basis for the third consecutive month as low oil and gas prices pressured liquidity in thebanking system. Moreover, the negative growth rate has accelerated from -0.4% YoY in March to -1.6% YoY in April. Such deterioration was backed by a 17.6% YoYdecline in the FCY deposits (versus -6% YoY in March). On the other hand, both demand and time deposits went up 11% YoY and 2.3% YoY, respectively. We notethat government deposits at commercial banks rose 14.4% YoY to record QAR64.2bn in April 2016.

SAUDI ARABIA: MACRO
The kingdom’s non-oil exports fell 11.2% YoY from SAR14.76bn in February 2015 to SAR13.11bn in February 2016. Plastic and rubber products, chemical productsand transport equipment (c.69% of total non-oil exports) decreased by 18.2%, 9.2% and 9.7% YoY, respectively in February. On the other hand, imports continuedto decline from SAR52.46bn in February 2015 to SAR40.69bn as machinery and electronics (c.30% of total imports) went down 24% YoY. Apart from the impact ofoil prices, we note that downside economic risks to the kingdom‘s major trading partners (i.e. China and the UAE) weigh on non-oil exports. That said, SaudiArabia’s current account deficit is expected to widen to 10.2% of GDP in 2016, according to the IMF.

UAE: MACRO
The broad money supply aggregate (M3) growth rate rose to 2.21% YoY on a yearly basis in April, reflecting tightened conditions in the UAE. A sharp decline in thegovernment deposits by 11.23% YoY was offset by 7.3% and 2.54% YoY increases in both M1 and Quasi-Monetary Deposits, respectively. Meanwhile, M3 monthlygrowth rate stalled in April, recording +0.01%. Recently, Abu Dhabi was reported to raise USD5bn in bonds from international markets. We note that tappinginternational debt markets for diversifying finance sources would help ease the pressure on domestic liquidity.

Important DisclosuresMETHODOLOGY: 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, includingmacroeconomic, 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, includingvaluation, 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 usedifferent weights for each economic sector: (a) Real Sector (30% weight), (b) Monetary Sector (10% weight), (c) Fiscal Sector (25% weight), (d) External Sector (15% weight), and (e) Credit Rating andOutlook (20%).
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 ourCountry 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. Stockswith 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-earningsratio (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 analysisinto 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 forthe 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 eachspecific country is assigned based on a relative calculation comparing this sector to all other sectors in this country.

Disclosure Appendix
SECURITY INVESTMENT RATINGS: We combine intrinsic value, relative valuation, and market sentiment into a singlerating. Our three-pronged methodology involves (1) discounted cash flows “DCF” valuation model(s), (2) relativevaluation metrics, and (3) overall sentiment. Whenever possible we attempt to apply all three aspects on the issuers orsecurities under review. In certain cases where we do not have our own financial and valuation models, we attempt toscan the market for other analysts’ value estimates and ratings (i.e. consensus view) on average. We compliment thiswith relative valuation and sentiment drivers, such as positive/neutral/negative news flows. For all issuers/securitiescovered, we have three investment ratings (Buy, Hold, or Sell), comparing the security’s expected total return (includingboth 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 thenext 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 marketconsensus 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 averageannualized standard deviation. We review the risk ratings at least annually or as the situation necessitates.
