These are Kot Addu Power Company (KAPCO) an independent power producer and Pakistan State Oil (PSO) an oil marketing company. It is expected that payment of half a trillion rupees (approximately US$5 billion) by the Government of Pakistan (GoP) to clear circular debt is expected to have positive impact on earnings of companies belonging to energy sector.

During 4QFY13, KAPCO realized a substantial benefit of Rs41.35 billion as settlement against circular debt from the GoP. The improved liquidity for the company is expected to result in higher generation going forward.

PSO is also expected to announce dividend of Rs7/share alongside the result, taking the cumulative payout for FY13 to Rs9.5/share.
Key highlights of the FY13 result include 1) revenue growth of 17%YoY led by 25%YoY growth in motor gasoline volumes, 2) a decline in overall market share, 3) inventory gains of Rs920 million as against inventory loss of Rs2.4 billion an year ago, 4) currency losses of Rs3.4 billion as against currency loss of Rs8.7 billion a year ago and 5) a 26%YoY reduction in finance cost from lower short term borrowing during the year.
