JKSB: Quarterly Highlights: Piramal Glass Ceylon PLC (GLAS): 1QFY20

Piramal Glass Ceylon PLC is a subsidiary owned by Piramal Glass Private Limited (India) with a stake amounting to 56.45%. GLAS predominantly focuses on the domestic market together with an increase in its footprint around regions such as India, Australia, Malaysia, Africa, Pakistan, Vietnam, USA and Canada with its introduction of new designs in varying shapes, sizes & colors. GLAS continues to focus on creating a sustainable export market by increasing its footprint globally to ensure it can negate the volatilities experienced in local markets. The company invested LKR 1.3Bn in order to drive growth in export earnings. The export led growth strategy that GLAS has focused on has led to a significant improvement in export sales from 31.3% to 36.6% in FY2019.

We currently project GLAS’s full year earnings to reach Rs. 350Mn supported by a gradual expansion in the export market. At the current price of 3.90, GLAS trades at FY20E P/E of 10.6x.
