1 JAMAICA: FOUNDATIONS FOR COMPETITIVENESS AND GROWTH PROJECT Loan No.:8408-JM Component: 2A Assignment Title: Treatment Plant Engagement of Financial Advisory Services for the Soapberry Wastewater Reference No. (As per Procurement Plan): FCG/CON/038 I. Background Terms of Reference Governed by the National Water Commission Act (1980), the National Water Commission (NWC) is a statutory body charged with the responsibility of being the main but not exclusive provider of potable water supply and the collection, treatment and disposal of wastewater services in Jamaica. The Kingston Metropolitan Area (KMA) which includes the Urban Centres of Kingston, St Andrew, South East St Catherine (Portmore) and Greater Spanish Town are the largest population centers accounting for approximately 50% of the island population. The KMA also has the largest sewerage coverage of approximately 40%. The NWC in keeping with its Capital Development Programme intends to develop and implement key potable water and domestic sewage collection/treatment and disposal projects to increase access to potable water to 85% and sewerage connections to 50% by The Soapberry Wastewater Treatment Plant (SWTP) is currently owned and operated by Central Wastewater Treatment Company (CWTC) which was established as a special purpose company for the construction and operation of the facility. NWC has an 85% shareholding of CWTC with Ashtrom Building Ltd, the current operator, owning 15% of the shares. The NWC has identified the need to explore this project given: SWTP is required to be expanded from its current treatment capacity of 75,000 m3/day to 150,000 m3/day by year 2020, in order to meet the medium term requirement for treatment of wastewater collected by NWC in the Kingston Metropolitan Area (KMA). The current capacity is capable of serving about 256,000 persons; The Project aims to facilitate the expansion of the KSA sewer network and provide the opportunity for more residential and commercial infrastructure to be developed; The need to ensure that the output from the plant, meets or exceeds NEPA s guidelines for effluent quality; and It is envisaged that the output from SWTP is reused for agricultural purposes to offset the current use of potable water sourced from the Rio Cobre.
2 The NWC is desirous of reducing its shareholding in CWTC in order to achieve a two-fold objective: 1. Liquidation of the NWC s shares so the asset can be realised as cash for financing NWC s strategic investment plan; and 2. It is anticipated that the restructuring of the ownership of the CWTC will enable the new owners to garner additional capital investment to expand the capacity of the Soapberry wastewater facility as per the projected incremental increase in demand. The analysis of the legal implications of this transaction from both a policy, governance and corporate aspect will be undertaken under a separate Legal Consultancy Contract that will commence prior to this Financial Advisory Services. The outcome of Phase 1 of the Legal Consultancy will establish the framework for this share transfer and ensure that all policy, regulatory and corporate aspects of the CWTC are aligned with the object of transferring the NWC stock (or a portion thereof). The Legal and Financial Consultants will be contracted separately. This engagement represents the determination of the economic and financial valuation of the entity, CWTC in order to estimate the value of the shares. This valuation will be used to determine the price the new owners are willing to pay for the stock and the NWC are prepared to sell. The Foundations for Competitiveness and Growth (FCG) Project was approved by the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (the World Bank) on July 25, The Government of Jamaica (GoJ) and the World Bank signed the loan agreement on September 3, The Project is being implemented by the Planning Institute of Jamaica in collaboration with the Jamaica Promotions Corporation and the Development Bank of Jamaica (DBJ). It is aimed at strengthening the business environment in Jamaica for private sector investment through four (4) components. Component 2 of the FCGP aims to facilitate strategic private investments through financing feasibility and other related studies and Technical Assistance (TA) to enable the government to prepare for and close investment transactions with private sector participation in a way that enables transformational growth impacts. The GoJ intends to apply a portion of resources obtained from the World Bank s Foundations for Competitiveness and Growth Project to conduct a Transactions Advisory Services for the engagement of a private investor in the CWTC. II. Objective The main objective of this assignment is to undertake a Business Valuation of the CWTC in order to estimate the financial value of the entity. This valuation will be used to determine the value of CWTC and price the buyer(s) is/are willing to pay for the portion of stock that the NWC is willing to sell in the CWTC. The consultant is required to prepare a comprehensive business valuation report for the NWC. The investigation, analysis, and recommendations of the study shall include all matters discussed in Tasks 1 through 5.
