Company Ltd of Thailand; Blackgold International Holdings Ltd of China;
Agritrade Resources Ltd of Hongkong; PT
Sumber Energi Andalan Tbk of Indonesia, Siberian Mining Group Company Ltd &
Mongolia Energy Corporation Ltd of Hong Kong.
Investment Rationale:
Coal India, a ‘Navratna’ company, is
the largest coal producing company in the world, based on its raw coal
production. The company is also the largest coal reserve holder in the world,
based on its reserve base. CIL is well positioned to capitalize the widening gap of demand
& supply as it controls 80 % of the coal supply in India and around 66% of
India’s power generation is coal based. CIL reported Q3FY13 consolidated net sales at Rs. 17,325
Cr, up by 13% YoY & by 18.8% QoQ. This was led by volume off take of 120.45
million tons in Q3FY13, up by 9.23% YoY & by 15.37% QoQ. Average
realizations remained flat at Rs. 1438 per tn, up by 0.09% QoQ and 3.05% YoY. Volume
growth was driven by inventory liquidation of 3.08 mn tons in Q3FY13. CIL
volume mix was largely directed towards Fuel Supply Agreement (FSA), which
contributed 87.67% of total volumes in Q3FY13 (85% in Q2FY13). Realization in
case of FSA stood at Rs. 1232 per tn, improving by 5.94% YoY & down 3.8%
QoQ. E-auction volumes stood at 9% of the total mix with realization per ton at
Rs. 2941, up by 3.12% YoY (19.6% QoQ). Volume contribution from washed coal was
at 3.29% of total volumes with realization/tn at Rs. 2491, up by 19.25% YoY
& 19.07% on QoQ basis. EBITDA margin contracted 4.92% YoY to 24.75%, led by
high employee, power and fuel expense. EBITDA/tn stood at Rs. 365.3 in Q3FY13
vis-à-vis Rs. 414 in Q3FY12 & Rs. 282 in the sequential quarter. This was
mainly due to high employee expenses which increased by 12.33% to Rs. 537.18/tn
YoY. PAT margin expanded 908 bps YoY to 16.89% (14.83% QoQ) aided by a sharp
decline in depreciation expense (down by 24.21% YoY. The Cabinet Committee on
Economic Affairs (CCEA) has given in principle approval to the price pooling
mechanism wherein the prices of domestic and imported coal will be averaged to get
a uniform price for coal in the country. CCEA however has not given the actual
terms of this mechanism and has asked the coal and power ministries to come out
with the detailed terms and specifications of how the price must be determined.
Currently, CIL has FSA's with power companies without price pooling basis and it
supplies imported coal at a cost plus basis.
Outlook and Valuation:
Coal India (CIL) production in 9MFY13 stood
at 308.91 mn ton, up by 6.06% YoY, while off-take at 335.23 mn tn was up by
8.05% YoY. Transportation infrastructure has been improving for the company, as
rake availability was 177 rakes a day in 9MFY13, up by 10.62% YoY. The share of
railways (transports ~1.5 mn tons of coal everyday) in the transportation mix
is ~ 52% and is expected to rise to 58% by FY17. Coal India plans to take a
proposal for setting up a Rs. 9,000 Cr power plant in Odisha to its board for
approval in next couple of months. Also Coal India is changing its appraisal
system in order to attract the best of the talent. The company has roped in
Manpower Group the world’s largest human resource management firm to implement
a performance related pay system which will be effective from April 2013. On
the back of increased coal production, higher FSA realisations, intact
e-auction volumes, increased availability of rakes and FSA issue are about to
resolve and it is expected that CIL's revenue & net profit can register a good
growth over FY13 and FY14E. The current expansion in off-take reinforces company’s ability to
achieve its guided off-take target of 487m (+6%) tonnes in FY14. Achievement of
targets would ease the concerns on CIL’s ability to increase prices, going
forward. However, it can be assumed that there can be marginal increase in
realisations by 2% in FY14 given the election year. With a huge cash pile of around Rs. 65,000
the company looks for overseas acquitions and can mull about buyback of shares
or for a special dividend. In
my view CIL could report FY13E EPS of Rs. 26.10/sh and for FY 14E of Rs. 27.90/sh.
Valuing the stock at 8.70x FY2014
EV/EBITDA, the stock could be bought for the target price of Rs. 355 and recommend Accumulate on the stock.
KEY FINANCIALS | FY12 | FY13E | FY14E | FY15E |
---|---|---|---|---|
SALES (Rs. Crs) | 62,415.40 | 67,415.10 | 67,378.60 | 72,766.90 |
NET PROFIT (Rs. Crs) | 14,726.30 | 16,459.70 | 17,618.50 | 19,932.20 |
EPS (Rs.) | 23.30 | 26.10 | 27.90 | 31.60 |
PE (x) | 15.60 | 14.00 | 13.00 | 11.50 |
P/BV (x) | 5.70 | 5.10 | 4.50 | 4.10 |
EV/EBITDA (x) | 11.10 | 9.70 | 8.70 | 7.20 |
ROE (%) | 39.90 | 38.30 | 36.70 | 37.10 |
ROCE (%) | 36.20 | 34.90 | 33.40 | 33.90 |
I would buy COAL INDIA LTD with a price target of Rs. 355 for the 6 month target. As I always say, I am a long term believer in markets & I do respect the markets and will keep a strict stop loss of 8 % or Rs. 293.00 on your purchase.
