(JSP IN, Mkt Cap USD1.6b, CMP INR111, TP INR184, 66% Upside, Buy)

  • Jindal Steel and Power (JSP) had a strong 4QFY17, on expected lines. Consolidated EBITDA grew 73% YoY (and 22% QoQ) to INR15.5b. Adjusted PAT loss of INR3b was down from INR4.1b in 3QFY17. For FY17, EBITDA grew 35% to INR46.6b, but adjusted PAT loss increased from INR16.6b in FY16 to INR19.1b on higher depreciation due to revaluation of assets. 4Q performance by business:
  • Standalone: EBITDA grew 17% QoQ to INR9.1b on higher sales (+10% QoQ to 920kt) and margins (+INR597/t QoQ to INR9,929/t). The BOF at Angul is on track for commissioning by October 2017 (earlier August). With the expansion at Angul, steel capacity will increase to ~8mt, driving strong volume growth.
  • Jindal Power: EBITDA grew 26% QoQ to INR3.8b (ex-one-off to INR3.3b) as Coal India formalized its grade slippage issue, driving cost savings. The savings on account of quality of coal would be recurring in nature.
  • Oman: EBITDA grew 52% QoQ/2x YoY to INR2.2b, driven by higher spreads (+USD29/t QoQ; +USD50/t YoY) to USD85/t and highervolumes. The new rebar mill operated at 65-70% utilization and should drive margin improvement.
