NHPC achieved CoD of 330MW Kishanganga project in April'18, but Parbati II (4x200MW) capacity is now expected to be commercialized only by FY21E-22E. Final report on Subansiri by MoEF has been kept reserved as the NGT is yet to decide whether the project is to be appraised through the current committee or form a new committee. We have cut our earnings estimates by 8.6%/14.9% for FY19E/20E to factor in delay in the commercialization of Parbati II project. Accordingly, we cut our SOTP-based Target Price (TP) to Rs31 v/s Rs34.6 earlier. We...

NHPC: Lower under-recoveries to boost earnings

Buy: NHPC Ltd.

Target

Motilal Oswal

The under-recovery in O&M cost is more than INR5.5b. It would decline to less than INR2b when the O&M norms are reset in the next tariff regulations in FY20. The decline in under-recoveries will also be aided by reduction in number of employees (count has reduced from ~8,000 in FY17 to ~7,500 in FY18 and will decline to ~6,500). The revenue under-recovery of INR1.5b- 2b per year on four projects due to over-run in capital cost, which is pending approval, is also likely to be recovered by FY20. Of the four projects, three are in the first review stage of CEA, while one is in the second review stage of PIB. The final stage is approval by CCEA

NHPC's 3QFY18 underlying PAT grew 40% YoY to INR2.7b (ahead of our estimate of INR2b), led by higher incentive income, lower other expenses, and saving in interest cost. Underlying PAT is adjusted for (a) dividend income of INR2.4b from NHDC and (b) late payment surcharge of INR2.3b (gross tax). Generation was up 1% YoY to 3.4BU. PAF increased ~270bp YoY to 76.8%. Incentive income increased 59% YoY to INR1.1b. Interest cost saving of INR1.1b was achieved on repayment and refinancing of debt.

Regulated equity to increase 35 %, despite Subhanshiri project being on hold NHPC is targeting commercialization of the 330MW Kishanganga project from January 2018 and the 800MW Parbati-II project from December 2018. These two projects will increase AES in capacity by 19 % and attributing regulated equity (ARE) by 35 %. The 2,000MW Subhanshiri project remains on hold for now. Under-recoveries to decline on natural attrition and approval of five tariff orders O&M under recoveries have peaked, in our view. Wage bill growth will be muted due to high natural attrition, while existing manpower can manage new projects. We expect approval of capex for the five projects over the next few years, which can boost recurring PAT by INR1.5b. Higher dividend payout is boosting RoE; room for even higher payout/buyback Capital allocation has improved with a payout of INR113b in four years. Debtor days have come down after the implementation of the UDAY scheme for DISCOMs. Net worth (NW) in non-core business has dropped from 51 % to 36 %, and RoE has improved from 8.7 % to 9.9 % over FY13-17. Another 32 % of NW can be paid out, which is not deployed in core business
