The year-ago quarter was affected by the second COVID wave, with Q1FY23 being the first quarter of full operations.

The company recorded its highest ever average ticket size of Rs. 229 in Q2 FY23.

Inox Leisure added 3 new properties in June 2022 with 17 screens each, at AIPL Joystreet, Gurugram; Orchid Mall, Kalaburagi; and Sattva Necklace Mall, Hyderabad. This indicates the company’s expansion focus and intent to reach new markets. The management is confident about the business and expects a great turnaround in the business going forward thanks to a fascinating content schedule in the upcoming quarter with releases like Laal Singh Chaddha, Raksha Bandhan, Liger, Brahmastra, and Vikram Vedha.

The outstanding box office performance was appropriately complemented by the company’s phenomenal performance across the F&B counters. The redesigned approach for F & B, supported by strategic promotions and innovations, has resulted in a soaring F & B revenue of Rs 164 Cr. INOX continued its focus on the consumer front by expanding its merchandise business, where INOX admirers can buy products and feel connected with their favourite super heroes.

Business, Equities, Market News, Markets, Research, Result Updates - August 4, 2022

The Ramco Cements Q1 Results: Volume growth on a low base of last year coupled with stable realization boosted revenue.

 

The Ramco Cements Q1 Results:

 

Volume growth on a low base of last year coupled with stable realization boosted revenue.

 

The Ramco Cement reported a net profit of Rs. 109.23 crores, down by 36.37% YoY from Rs. 171.67 crores on account of high fuel prices and weak cement prices.

Ramco Cement’s revenue grew 44.1% YoY and 3.9% QoQ to Rs 17,79.4 crores. Cement sales stood at 3.31 MT for Q1FY23, a growth of 54.7% YoY and 3.8% QoQ. Volume growth on a low base of last year coupled with stable realization boosted revenue. The blended realization for the quarter was at Rs. 5,376/ton, declining by 4.5% YoY, though on a sequential basis realization saw a marginal rise of 1%. Share of premium products stands at 24% for Q1FY23. Sales Volume was lower in Q1FY22 on account of CoVID-related lockdowns. Cement sales increased by 55% YoY.

 

The total expenses increased 64.96%  to Rs 1,630.59 crore in Q1 FY2022-23 from Rs 988.46 crore a year ago.
Variable Costs have gone up due to sharp fuel price increases. The cement price increase was insufficient to cover the fuel cost push. Effective tax rates were reduced due to the adoption of the new tax regime. Finance costs increased due to the commissioning of the clinker unit in JPM Line III.

 

Higher costs of power & fuel along with an increase in logistics costs dented the margin.

 

EBIDTA for Q1 of CY is Rs.308 crores as against Rs.370 crores during Q1 of PY with a de-growth of 17%, mainly due to a sharp increase in fuel price and weak cement prices. The industry could not pass on the full cost increase arising out of a sharp fuel price hike, to its customers. Pet coke and coal prices have increased. Consequently, power & fuel cost has increased by 553 / ton in Q1 YoY. Increase in diesel price by 11% YoY. EBITDA margin contracted by 1265 bps YoY/18 bps QoQ to 17%.

Profit before tax declined by 38% YoY to Rs. 155.05 crores from Rs. 251.53 crores.

The shares closed at Rs. 726.35, down by 0.87%.

 

Valuations:

The return on equity (ROE) is 14.7% for the quarter ended June 2022. The price-to-earning (P/E) ratio stood at 20.5. The return on capital employed (ROCE) for the company is 9.51%.

Newgen Software Wins Global Deal, Shares Surge
Business, Markets, Result Updates - August 3, 2022

Indus Towers reports weak numbers in Q1FY23.

Indus Towers reports weak numbers in Q1FY23.

The shares of Indus Towers fell harshly on August 3 after the company announced weak earnings for the quarter ended June. In the quarter, net profit fell 66% year on year to Rs 477 crore, while revenue increased only 1% to Rs 6,897 crore, and operating profit fell 34% to Rs 2,322 crore. The impact of a non-payment from one of the customers reduced operating cash flow by 60% to Rs 807 crore. While the company’s energy costs increased 5.3% and operating expenses increased by 18.2%.

Main reason for the weak performance. 

In the reported quarter, share revenue per tower fell 11.4 percent sequentially to Rs 75,688.Overall, total towers increased to 1,027 from March 2022 quarter to 186,474, which was weaker than the past performance for the company. The company had agreed to the payment plan modification of security arrangements proposed by VI promoters for clearance of the outstanding dues. Pursuant to an agreement, Vodafone has given all of its primary pledged shares in equities issued by it to be used exclusively for clearing the outstanding dues of the company. Further, Indus has a secondary pledge over Vodafone’s remaining shares and a corporate guarantee provided by Vi’s promoters which could be used. However, it is insufficient to cover the outstanding.

Their prudent accounting practise resulted in their financial performance, as they focused on bills receivables due to the financial situation of one of our major customers. The fundamentals of the business remain strong, and the successful conclusion of the 5G auctions has further improved the outlook.

Valuations:

The ROCE for the company is 25.0% and the ROE is at 33.5%. The P/E ratio is at 10.2 times and 5 years’ P/E is at 17.5 times. EPS for the company is Rs.23.7. The debt to equity ratio is at 0.89 for Indus Towers. The firm has maintained a healthy dividend payout ratio of 82.96%.

United Phosphorus Limited Q1 FY23 Result Updates. Higher EBITDA combined with lower finance costs drove robust growth in net profit.

 

United Phosphorus Limited Q1 FY23 Result Updates.

Higher EBITDA combined with lower finance costs drove robust growth in net profit.

 

United Phosphorus Limited reported net profit of Rs.  877 crores, jumped by 28.54% YoY from Rs. 677 crores. The net profit for the previous quarter was Rs. 1379 crores.

Q1 FY23 Revenue witnessed robust growth of 27% YoY to reach Rs. 10,821 crores from Rs. 8515 crores led by better product realizations (+18%), favorable exchange rate (+3%), and higher volumes (+6%).

Working capital was higher in Q1 FY23 primarily due to robust growth of 27% in sales, short-term inventory build-up due to strong demand and uncertainties in supply-chain, and an increase in receivables on the back of strong growth in LATAM. However, without reduced factoring and FX impact, the increase in net working capital on a sequential basis would have been lower at Rs. 1,931 crores.

 

Robust growth led by significant pick-up in realizations and higher volumes in a challenging macro-environment.

 

EBITDA grew by 26% YoY to Rs. 2,342 crore as against Rs. 1,862 crore in Q1 FY22. The EBITDA margin for the quarter is 21.6% .Significant uptick in realizations supported by efficient supply chain management aided in maintaining EBITDA margins despite inflationary. After a strong end to FY2022, the company continued to see solid growth momentum in Q1 FY23, as the strong agri commodity prices drove significant uptick in price realizations as well as healthy demand from growers. The EBITDA margin remained largely intact despite the significant input cost inflation and a challenging macro-economic environment exacerbated by geopolitical issues. This was driven by proactive pricing actions coupled with efficient supply chain management that led to the strong topline growth getting translated into robust operating profitability growth as well.

Better pricing and efficient supply chain management helped improve margins both YoY and sequentially. The EBITDA margin is marginally lower due to higher investments in SG&A as the company focused on building teams and capabilities to grow its differentiated and sustainable portfolio, and normalization of overheads post-Covid.

 

On 2nd August 2022, the stock closed at Rs. 736.95, down by 3.96%.

 

Valuations:

The return on equity (ROE) is 16.7% for the quarter ended June 2022. The price to earnings (P/E) ratio stood at 14.1. The return on capital employed (ROCE) for the company is 15.6%. The price to book value of  United Phosphorus Limited is 2.28. The EV/EBITDA is 24.5 and the EV/Sales is 7.43.
