Jindal Steel & Power: Management meeting update

  • Near-term demand is tepid and demand decline is seen (especially last month) However, pent-up demand is inevitable, as seen since the ebbing of the first COVID wave.
  • JSPL is undergoing a structural change in its EBITDA margin. We believe its sustainable EBITDA margin would likely improve by INR2,000-2,500/t over the previous cycle average driven by -
  • Supply of pellets through the slurry pipeline - savings of INR600/t of iron ore
  • Merchant sales of pellets of 6-7mt annually - margins of INR1,000-1,200/t of pellet
  • An improvement in the FG mix with flats accounting for 67% of capacity post expansion (vs 28% now) and a significant reduction in semis from 35% to 5%
  • Over the near term, the Steel market remains weak due to the factors discussed above. However, considering a) the long-term growth plan already under implementation (funded largely through internal accruals), b) the target to turn net debt zero by Mar'23 at the latest, and c) the mix towards flats improving the blended NSR substantially, we are positive on the stock and maintain a BUY rating with TP of Rs 478 based on 5x Mar-23E EV/EBITDA
