MOSL: IOC (Buy)-Better-than-expected marketing margins result in a beat

IOC: Better-than-expected marketing margins result in a beat

(IOCL IN, Mkt Cap USD21.3b, CMP INR157, TP INR198, 26% Upside, Buy)

 

4QFY19 EBITDA (adj. for inventory and one-offs) stood at INR74b (-10% YoY, -40% QoQ) due to lower-than-expected core GRM and refining throughput. EBITDA was ~45% above our estimate, primarily led by better marketing performance. PAT was 63% above our estimate at INR61b (+17% YoY), owing to higher other income and lower tax rate.

  • Interest cost was higher at INR12.4b (-5% YoY, +47% QoQ). Forex gain was at INR8.4b (v/s loss of INR6.8b in 4QFY18 and gain of INR21b in 3QFY19). Total inventory gain stood at INR26b in 4QFY19 (our est. INR25b).
  • Refining throughput stood at 17.4mmt (v/s 17.2mmt in 4QFY18 and 19.0mmt in 3QFY19). Core GRM at USD1.4/bbl was below our estimate of USD3.5/bbl (USD6.1/bbl in 4QFY18 and USD9.2/bbl in 3QFY19).
  • Record high marketing margins (incl. of inventory) at INR6.7/lit beat our est. of INR3.7/lit (INR5.1/lit in 4QFY18 and INR3.5/lit in 3QFY19).
