The company disclosed its Dow construction project, its biggest concern, should be complete by October. Construction was delayed eight months from the target date due to differences between the client and Samsung Engineering in terms of management. The client managed the EPC contractors as cost + fee type, while the project was previously agreed upon as a lump sum turnkey type (LSTK, Page.2). Contention peaked in early 2013, and currently the project is in the test phase, and is being delivered to the client incrementally. Although the demanding nature of the project means we need to wait until the confirmation of completion, we believe risks have eased substantially. US, hottest market in the world Currently, the US hydrocarbon market is booming for the first time in 20 years as gas feed prices dropped to USD3/mmbtu (USD2/mmbtu in the Middle East). Tenders of ethylene mega complexes (USD3bn/complex) have increased, and seven mega projects of 15 scheduled have been tendered. US EPC companies resource shortages should worsen in 2014 as the front-end equipment design (FEED) phase is completed and detailed designs begin. In the US, sellers bargaining power will be on par with that of the buyer. Most orders were being awarded as cost + fee type and in 2011, when Samsung Engineering won the Dow construction order, the company accepted the LSTK type, which was unusual in the US market and disadvantageous for Samsung Engineering, since this was the first time the company won a project in the US (Page 3). Sasol EPC project expected, ongoing efforts to enter US market Samsung Engineering won the ethylene FEED order awarded by Sasol in April. Unlike the Middle East (ME), where EPC starts six months after FEED, in the US, EPC negotiations begin during the middle of FEED and immediately transfers to EPC upon completion of FEED. For this complex, four companies have won FEED orders separately. Fluor (US) won ethylene/utility/integration, Toyo (Japan) low density polyethylene, Mitsui (Japan) high density polyethylene and Samsung Engineering the ethylene oxide/ethylene glycol package. Fluor should be responsible for most of the construction to meet local labor regulations. The Japanese companies and Samsung Engineering will likely be responsible for engineering and procurement.

2 Downside risk to fade, turnaround from 2014 Samsung Engineering suffered losses when it first entered Saudi Arabia in 1999 after winning a butane plant order. But the company gained a solid foothold in the ME market by winning the propane dehydration and polypropylene plant orders. Similarly, we believe the company is now undergoing a trial period before its fullfledged entry to a major market. In addition, downside risk appears to be fading sharply, and the company appears to be recovering from its 2Q13 plunge in earnings. However, Samsung Engineering must meet the following conditions to justify current valuations: 1) no new cost overruns from 3Q13, 2) complete the Dow project without problem, and 3) make meaningful progress in the US market. We will upgrade the company to BUY once these signals are visible. Dow project, identifying the problem Samsung Engineering does not have authority to run the Dow project. Instead, Dow s internal engineering team runs the project even though the order was awarded as an LSTK. As a result, when minor problems occurred in resources every piece of equipment was rejected and assembly was disapproved, resulting in considerable construction delays. In addition, the project is located in Freeport, Texas, where a defense industrial base is located. This slowed the timely transportation of resources. We believe Samsung Engineering won the project as an LSTK type, which was unusual in the US, as Mitsui, Dow Chemical s partner in the project, was familiar with LSTK type, but more so as Samsung Engineering had to make concessions to enter the US market for the first time. But, as Dow has a reputation as one of the most challenging customers in the US, successful completion of the project should facilitate Samsung Engineering s penetration of the US market. Figure 1. Dow chemical complex in Freeport, Texas Dow Chemical industrial complex (Samsung engineering chlorine project) Justin Hust Sanctuary for wild animals Freeport defense industrial base Source: Google With most promising year ahead in the US, Korea builders must ride the cycle In the US, ethylene complex orders have been awarded for seven projects, half of the total scheduled. And, the US market should become even more robust in 2014, on: 1) the start of detailed designs for ongoing projects, after completion of FEED, and 2) scheduled bids for the remaining projects. As such, engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) providers may face labor shortages, and US 2
3 firms should utilize a selective order-taking strategy out of huge opportunities. Korean builders, including Samsung Engineering, may not be able to take advantage of their entry into the US, unless they secure opportunities in As such, Samsung Engineering is focusing on the Sasol project s EPC switch. We believe the hydrocarbon plant boom, which has led to the construction of basic petrochemical complexes, such as ethylene, should also gradually expand to fertilizer and downstream plants. In contrast, the upstream oil/gas plants and refinery projects will likely be slower in the US given less sustainable production than the ME and the subsequent lower economic efficiency. (Of note, we believe the US hydrocarbon plant market will trigger a market squeeze in the ME or Latin America.) We will cover the details of this issue in the following updates. Reasons to enter the US, how it differs from the ME Chinese builders have further ramped up operations in the ME and emerging markets. As such, Korean EPC providers must secure the US as a core market. Given competitive shale gas feedstock prices, few other markets should be able to compete with the US in terms of sustainability or scale. We believe a fundamental difference between the ME and US tenders is that the ME is based on the national strategy rather than economic potential, while the US focuses solely on commercial viability. And, these differences determine the pace of projects. While it takes six month to a year for a ME project to complete FEED and to tender EPC deals, US projects occasionally shift to the EPC step during the FEED process to minimize opportunity costs. As most US projects have cost plus fee arrangement, these deals can be cancelled at any time according to economic conditions. As such, it is important for an EPC provider to select economically viable, and thereby sustainable projects. Table 1.

The company said that business owners are asked how they would improve projects based on what they have learned from failure rather than simply focusing on the failure itself. We note that companies like Bechtel, JGC and Chiyoda also made massive losses when they first entered the market. To penetrate the crucial US market by using failure as a learning experience, smooth risk control must be achieved. Although Samsung Engineering is unlikely to be profitable in 2013, we believe the downside risk has been easing considerably from 3Q13. 3
