Sanghi Industries: Volumes impacted by unavailability of fleet

(SNGI IN, Mkt Cap USD0.3b, CMP INR88, TP INR130, 48% Upside, Buy)

 

  • Volumes remain flat YoY: SNGI’s 1QFY19 volumes including clinker were flat YoY at 0.67mt due to unavailability of fleet for road movement following e-way bill implementation. Realizations at INR4,114/t (-5% YoY, +1% QoQ) were lower than our estimate of INR 4,191/t – higher prices in April-May were offset by lower prices in June. Revenue fell 4% YoY (but grew 8% QoQ) to INR2.7b, in line with our estimate.
  • Cost curve impacted: Unitary cost grew 4% YoY (and 1% QoQ) to INR3,465/t, led by higher power and fuel cost at INR1,232/t (+18% YoY, +13% QoQ). Other expenses/t increased 56% QoQ due to INR32.2m of forex loss in 1QFY19. EBITDA/t stood at INR649 (-35% YoY, -2% QoQ). EBITDA declined 34% YoY (but grew 5% QoQ) to INR434m v/s our estimate of INR480m. Power and fuel cost/t increased due to lower availability of low-cost lignite at 27% in 1QFY19 v/s 83% in 1QFY18 and increase in coal prices.  Interest cost at INR123m declined 34% YoY and 29% QoQ due to re-pricing of high cost debt of INR3.3b with lower interest cost. Hence PAT at INR199mn declined 37% YoY for 1QFY19.
  • Management commentary: (1) Strong growth in underlying markets of Gujarat at 15% YoY and Maharashtra at 9% YoY; (2) Freight cost/t declined QoQ due to reduction in lead distance; (3) Lower proportion of PPC sales at 33% v/s 38% in 1QFY18 due to unavailability of flyash.
