The Ramco Cements Ltd (TRCL) has reported extremely good set of numbers for 2QFY21 on the back of better realization and lower costs. Realization was surprisingly higher and was the key reason for a strong beat in the results against our as well as consensus numbers. Realization was up ~5% QoQ against our expectation of a 3% decline. We believe that higher realization was a result of relatively lower proportion of sales in the East and strong pricing in the South. TRCL has sold more material in Kerala and Tamil Nadu, which are relatively more remunerative than the company's other markets. Volume declined by 18.8% YoY to 2.21mn mt, which was lower than our estimate of 2.4mn mt. As a result, TRCL reported revenue at Rs12.6bn, down 4.5% YoY while...

Nirmal Bang Institutional
Pricing is better but costs deteriorate; downgrade to Sell We are downgrading The Ramco Cement Ltd (TRCL) to Sell from Accumulate as we believe that (1) current elevated pricing is unlikely to sustain (2) clinker shortages will lead to higher raw material costs and lower volume and (3) regional exposure to East and South is bound to result in volatile demand and pricing. The company has reported marginally good set of numbers for 1QFY21 on the back of better realisation. However, given that the stock is trading at 14.2x FY22 EV/EBITDA, we believe that investors should wait for a better entry opportunity, especially given the fact that EBITDA/mt is likely to fall for the next few quarters. For 1QFY21, the company reported revenue at...

These factors imply that 1QFY21 sales would decline ~20% YoY in the north and ~40% in the south. Cement prices mostly held up in June, bolstering 1Q realization YoY across the south (+11%), north (+6%), and central (+2%) India. West and east prices are down ~1% and 2% YoY respectively. We believe that falling energy costs could further cushion the impact of dwindling demand on profitability. Despite the ongoing COVID situation, cement demand recovered MoM in June, driven by strong traction in retail sales (semi-urban/rural areas) while non-trade sales continued to decline. Our channel checks suggest sales in north/central/east regions printed flattish to marginal growth. Even in the south and west India, the volume decline rate moderated to ~20-30% YoY in June vs ~40% in May.

We increase FY21/22E EBITDA est by 4% each factoring in cost tailwinds. We continue to value it at 12x FY22E EBITDA (~10 year mean), implying TP of Rs 685. As post the recent 30% run-up, the stock is trading at rich valuation, offering limited upside, we downgrade its rating to ADD from BUY earlier. We downgrade Ramco Cements to ADD from BUY earlier, as the sharp 30% stock price recovery in the past two months, limits upside on our TP of Rs 685 (12x FY22E EBITDA). Covid impact drove 11% vol decline in 4Q, leading to 9/14/13% fall in Rev/EBITDA/APAT. This slowed FY20 Rev/EBITDA/APAT growth to 4/10/18% YoY. As capex spend in FY20 spiked up towards ongoing expansions in east/AP, its net debt doubled and net Debt/EBITDA soared to 2.6x vs 1.4x YoY. This should cool off in FY22, once the expansions get completed by early FY22E. Avg int rate remains competitive at ~7.34%.
