Despite surviving the recent domestic unrest with all outlets, factories, and inventory intact, Al-Ezz Ceramics and Porcelain
(GEMMA) [ECAP] will still decrease its production capacity by 40%. Meanwhile, GEMMA's local replacement market (which it
targets with a market share of c.7%) could be negatively impacted by customers' increased preference for cash should the political
situation in Egypt remain unstable. On a more positive note, given that GEMMA produces the highest-quality tiles in Egypt – of
which around 30% is exported – we believe these exports will not be affected by events in Egypt. On the company front, Lecico Sector 556.1 n/m 6.56% -12.39% n/a nla 1,771.9

Rating system
In February 2009, CI Capital Research (CICR) launched a new rating system to give analysts more freedom to be market responsive. This is to make one element of our research more dynamic, namely the advertising
of target prices and recommendations. What we did not change is our assessment of the Long Term Fair Value (LTFV), nor have we stopped our detailed industry and company research. What we did is changing the
target price to trade in the balance of where a share should trade and where we think it will trade.
LTFV: As before we continue to estimate a fundamental valuation, largely DCF and/or NAV based.
Target Price: The target price, which is not necessarily the LTFV, is where the analyst, given all (qualitative as well as financial) information available, thinks the share price can get to within the next 3-12 months. This
can be changed at any time on changing facts, and perceptions.
Recommendations: Our new rating system falls out from the total return relating to the share price performance to the target price, and including any distributions as may not be included in the target price calculation.
This is shown in the table below, and to be BUY must return over 19%, an arbitrary hurdle rate we think reasonable given prevailing interest rates and risks. (Please see table below.)
