Coal India: A case of misplaced valuations; Attractively valued at ~3x EV/EBITDA

  • Despite a 48% YoY increase in adj. EBITDA in FY19, COAL's stock price is down ~30% since end-Mar'18, with valuations at ~50% discount to its long-term average. This decline has coincided with a fall in valuations of coal mining companies globally.
  • Given the non-cyclical nature of COAL and a growing domestic demand it is perplexing to see the sharp de-rating in the stock. In our view, from India's standpoint, coal is here to stay, despite increasing renewable generation. At ~3x FY20E EV/adj. EBITDA and ~8x P/E, the stock is attractively valued.
  • We value COAL at 4.5x FY20 EV/adj. EBITDA and reiterate Buy with a target price of INR264/sh.
