Result Updates - August 3, 2022

Castrol India reported a net profit of Rs.206 crore.

Castrol India manufactures and markets automotive lubricants and specialty products. It  is one of the world’s most important lubricant manufacturers and has announced its financial results for June 2022. The company reported a net profit of Rs. 206 Cr., up by 47% compared to Rs. 140 Cr. in June 2021. The company witnessed a 40% increase in revenue from operations to Rs 1,242 Cr in Q1 June 2022 over Rs 890 Cr in Q1 June 2021.

The management said the current quarter’s performance was due to a volatile market environment where they had to balance rising input costs while maintaining an optimal price and volume mix. They were affected by price increases in the first half of the year, which enabled them to deliver a resilient performance and helped to stay ahead of June 2021, though the volumes and margins were under pressure compared to March 2022.

Upcoming threats:

The company needs to keep balancing the need to drive growth and serve customers’ needs while protecting margins as inflationary and forex pressures are likely to continue in the coming period.

An integral element of their future-ready strategy is their foray into service and maintenance with new formats such as Castrol Auto Service and Castrol Express Oil Change outlets. In addition, they will also explore collaboration with electric vehicle OEMs to supply advanced electric mobility while continuing to launch new products in the traditional lubricant space. The board of directors of the company has declared an interim dividend of Rs 3 per share, which will be paid on or before August 31, 2022.

Valuations:

The EPS for the stock is at Rs. 8.18 and the P/E ratio is at 14.0 times. The ROCE and ROE for the company are at 67.5% and 49.6%, respectively. The P/B ratio is at 6.35 times and the book value of the company is Rs.18.1. The EBITDA is 8.34 times. The company is almost debt free.

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.

Zomato's Q1 FY23 results improved.
Business, Equities, Result Updates - August 2, 2022

Zomato zooms up 20% after stellar Q1 performance.

Zomato zooms up 20% after stellar Q1 performance.

Zomato recorded a net loss of Rs. 186 Cr. in Q1FY23 compared to a net loss of Rs. 356 Cr. YOY. The scrip soared after the results. The revenue from operations was at Rs. 1,413 Cr., up by 67.44% versus 844.4 Cr. in June 2021 due to an increase in orders for meals from the online platform. However, the company’s adjusted revenue increased by 18% quarter on quarter and 56% year on year to Rs 1,810 Cr. in Q1FY23.Its adjusted EBITDA loss was Rs 150 Cr in the June quarter, down from Rs 220 Cr the previous quarter.

The revenue is comprised of mainstream food delivery and related fees it charges restaurants for using its platform. The total order value of all food delivery orders placed online rose for the first quarter by 41.6 % to Rs 643 Cr. YOY, with an average customer of 16.7 million. The margins were negatively impacted due to higher fuel costs and wage inflation as per the management. They also added that the monthly transacting customers were the key driver for volume growth.

The domestic food delivery industry is expected to grow three times over the next five years. With the rising order regularity and user count, we expect Zomato to have 45–50% of the market share.

Future plans for Zomato

The online food delivery company will be internally rebranded by moving to a multiple chief executive structure for its businesses that will be housed under a larger organisation called Eternal. In an internal message to employees, Deepinder Goyal said the company has matured from running a single business to running multiple and large companies. The restructuring is happening after the shareholders approved the Blinkit acquisition. Zomato currently has four companies — Zomato, Blinkit, Hyperpure, and Feeding India. Starting Monday (August 1), the company will call the larger organisation Eternal. The umbrella organisation will be called Eternal and will have four firms-Zomato, Blinkit, HyperPure, and Feeding India. Goyal hinted at a model where the company would get into other businesses.

Deepak Goyal said that there will be multiple CEOs running each other’s businesses and working as a “super-team” towards building a single, large organisation. Zomato has set aside a war chest of $1 billion to invest in multiple start-ups. Zomato has acquired a substantial stake in Mukunda, Curefit, and Magicpin. The restructuring is very important as it hints at a model where the company will do other businesses.

Valuations:

The EPS is currently RS.-0.18. The ROCE and ROE are at -10.1% and -10.2%. The large cap company closed at Rs.55.6, up by 20.9% on Tuesday. The company is also debt free, with a long-term borrowing of Rs. 30 Cr. The stock P/E is 194, which is quite expensive. The P/B ratio for the company is 2.62.

Gross margins for the quarter reduced by 302 bps to 50.5% from 53.5% in Q1 FY22 primarily because of an increase in preform prices by 30% over Q1 FY2022.

Deepak Fertilizers and Petrochemicals reported a net profit of Rs. 434 Cr.

Deepak Fertilizers and Petrochemicals reported a net profit of Rs. 434 Cr.

Deepak Fertilizers reported total revenue of Rs. 3031 Cr. in June 2022. The chemicals segment contributed around 87% of total profit. Chemicals revenue was at Rs. 1771 Cr, double from the previous year’s same quarter. The fertiliser segment’s revenues increased by 26% YOY. EBITDA margins increased from 15.2% in Q1 FY22 to 24.3% in Q1 FY23. The specialty segment portfolio grew by 321% YOY from Rs. 173 Cr. in Q1 FY22 to Rs. 729 in Q1 FY23.

Future Developments

The Greenfield ammonia plant is under development and is moving ahead as per the planned schedule. The farmer connect initiatives have increased customer experience, which will be instrumental in building market position in the crop nutrition business. The second quarter is a seasonally low period for mining activity due to the monsoon. The prices of imported Ammonium Nitrate (AN) have started to moderate. The TAN business aims to effectively compete on pricing to ensure reliability and supply security. The demand and pricing for nitric acid are relatively passive as they are typically expected during the monsoon season. The focus on customised offerings for the Solar/Steel and Parma sectors will help to gradually position Acids/IPA as a specialty chemical sector. A gradual slowdown of the raw material and ammonia prices would also help to sustain a reasonable delta for the TAN/Acid businesses.

Valuations:

EPS for the company is Rs. 36.13 compared to Rs. 23.19 in the previous quarter. The P/E ratio for the stock is at 9.15 times and 3 years’ P/E is at 7.69 times. The ROCE and ROE are 19.8% and 20.7%, respectively. The debt to equity ratio is 0.68. The interest coverage ratio is 10.5 and the dividend payout ratio is 16% for the year ending March 2022. The script closed at Rs.746, up by 4.99% or 35.50 points, which is its upper circuit.

On a sequential basis, the revenue is higher by 2.2% from Rs 5,260 crores in the previous quarter.

 

There were no exceptional items for the June quarter under review. However, there were exceptional items of Rs. 57.50 crores in the previous quarter and Rs. 124.6 crores in the year-ago quarter.

Overall  South Africa region declined by 10% on a YoY basis in USD terms. Strong demand continues with South Africa private business continuing to outperform market.

Markets, Real Estate, Result Updates - August 1, 2022

Aurum Proptech will deliver a strong growth

Aurum Proptech will deliver a strong growth

Aurum Proptech recorded revenue of Rs. 14.64 Cr. in Q1 FY23 compared to NIL in Q1 FY22 and reported 8.1 Cr. in Q4 FY22 with a change of 78.9%. The company realised a loss of Rs. 6.85 Cr. in Q1 FY23 compared to a loss of Rs. 4.89 Cr. sequentially. EBITDA was at a loss of Rs. 5.69 Cr for the quarter compared to a loss of Rs. 6.22 in March 2022. Up by 9.3%, they managed to reduce their losses. The SAAS segment contributed revenue of Rs. 5.11 Cr. and the Real Estate as a Service (RAAS) contributed Rs. 9.53 Cr. The company reported other expenses of Rs. 11.27 Cr., which is a main negative point for the company.

 

Robust growth is expected from Helloworld in FY23.

Aurum Proptech now has five subsidiaries. K2V2 contributed around 9.8 Cr of the total revenue, whereas Helloworld recorded a total of 2.34 Cr. in the 15 days of its incorporation and is expected to give revenue of Rs. 15 Cr. of its own by the end of the current fiscal year. The management is optimistic about its future growth and has already tied up with the top developers. The company is operational in 15 cities and is currently mainly focused on Pune, Mumbai, Bangalore, and Delhi.

They received approval for two wholly owned subsidiaries, namely the Aurum software and solutions. The company calls for money from its rights issues by the end of FY23. We believe the stock at CMP still offers a risk-free upside of about 20% return (in three months) for any funds that do not pay any taxation on dividend income and thus offers a good special situation opportunity.

 

Valuations:

The ROE is at -6.50 % and ROCE at -9.04%. The debt to equity ratio is 0.04, which is a good sign as the company won’t have any short-term or long-term liquidity problems. The current quarter’s EPS was Rs. 1.93, with a P/E ratio of 14.74. The scrip was trading at Rs. 109 on Monday, up by 0.51 points.
