Rel. to Nifty (RHS)

Subdued in-line performance YoY; few positive signs QoQ

Ambuja Cements (ACEM) 3QC15 net sales declined 4.1% YoY to Rs20.95bn, as realizations
fell sharply, while volumes grew marginally (in line with SSLe). Realizations fell ~6% YoY to
Rs4,276/tonne (unadjusted). However, despite the decline in realizations, volumes grew
marginally by just 2% YoY (including clinker sales of 0.08MT) to 4.9MT, indicating weak
demand in key ACEM markets. ACEMs capacity utilization hovered ~69% (marginally higher
than 67.5% in 3QC14). The company continued its cost control efforts as the total cost/tonne
decreased ~4% YoY to Rs3,620/tonne, aided by raw material and logistic costs.
Consequently, EBITDA/tonne reduced to Rs656/tonne (from Rs789/tonne), which was lower
on account of muted realization growth. EBITDAM shrank to 16% (earlier 17.9%).
The EBITDA performance was healthy QoQ, driven by 2% realization growth and flat
cost/tonne. This helped EBITDA/tonne to jump 15% sequentially from Rs570/tonne (adjusted
to MDR provisions) in 2QC15. Adjusting for DMF provisions, however, EBITDA came a tad
lower at Rs3.37bn vs. Rs3.57bn in 2QC15, as volumes fell 18% QoQ. Meanwhile, APAT
declined 24.5% YoY to Rs1.8bn (in line with SSLe) vs. Rs2.39bn in the last-year period due to
lower realizations and rising depreciation and interest costs YoY. APAT declined 9.6% QoQ
due to lower other income in 3QC15. We have maintained our target price at Rs218/share
(earlier Rs208) based on C16-end capacities of 28.7 MT and maintain HOLD rating on the
stock. At our target price, ACEM trades at a P/E of 25.7x and has an EV/EBITDA of 13.8x on
C16e earnings.
Marginal volume growth: ACEMs cement volumes grew marginally by 2% YoY to 4.9MT
(including clinker sales of 0.08MT). However, realizations declined 6.1% YoY to
Rs4,276/tonne, indicating weak demand. West and North (including the Central region) India
and East India contribute to ~82% and ~18% of ACEM sales, respectively. Sequentially,
however, realizations increased 5%/2%/flat in North/West/East India.
Cost control continues: ACEMs cost control measures continued in 3QC15, as the
cost/tonne declined ~4% YoY to Rs3,620/tonne. The decline was aided by raw material and
logistics costs. Power and fuel cost/tonne came at Rs992/tonne vs.Rs1061/tonne YoY due to
higher use of pet-coke 53% (50% in 3QC14) and cheaper imported coal 24% vs. 9% in
3QC14 replacing the domestic coal. Raw material cost/tonne, excluding changes in
inventories, came at Rs367/tonne vs. Rs408/tonne in 3QC14. On the other hand, logistics
costs (including inter-units transfer for clinker) came flat at Rs1130/tonne vs. Rs1141/tonne in
the same-period last year, which was commendable. Meanwhile, EBITDA declined
~14.4%YoY to Rs3.37bn, whereas EBITDAM shrank to 16% YoY (earlier 17.9%) after
adjusting for DMF provisions.
Earnings estimates maintained: We have maintained our full-year estimates for
C15e/C16e/C17e. Meanwhile, key ACEM continued to face weak demand and there was
limited improvement in realizations, as indicated by the 9M performance; however, we expect
steady recovery in demand in North/West and East India, as a consequence of the
governments aggressive spending on infrastructure (particularly roads). This should help
ACEM improve its dispatches in C16e/C17e. Helped with this and a steady-to-marginal
increase in cement realizations and strict cost controls should fillip performance in
C16e/C17e. We have not yet factored in the same; however, we will be watching the cement
dispatches and prices keenly. We will revisit our earnings and take a call on the stock in case
of sustained/fast recovery.
Valuation and recommendation: We continue to value ACEM based on the replacement
cost method, and have a base cost assumption of Rs7.5bn/MT. The stock currently trades at
a premium valuation to the replacement cost based on C16 capacities. We have assigned a
40% premium to the replacement cost. Accordingly, we revised our target price to
Rs218/share based on its C16-end capacities of 28.7MT and our HOLD rating. At our target
price, the stock trades at a P/E of 25.7x and EV/EBITDA of 13.8x C16 earnings estimates.
