Mixed top-line performance: Steel companies reported a mixed top-line performance during 1QFY2013. JSW Steel and Tata Steel saw a net sales growth of 33.2% and 2.5% yoy respectively whereas SAIL reported a 1.6% yoy decline in net sales mainly due to lower volumes during the quarter. Among the non-ferrous players only Sterlite reported a 7.8% yoy increase in net sales on the back of higher volumes; however, the top-line of the rest of the players fell on an average by 1.7% due to lower prices of aluminium and zinc. Among the miners, except for Sesa Goa, all other companies showed a moderate increase in top-line aided by higher volumes.

Higher input costs dent operating profits: Among the steel companies, Tata Steel reported a 23.1% fall in operating profits due to higher labor and power costs. SAIL reported a healthy 15.1% increase in operating performance due to lower raw material costs. JSW Steels EBITDA grew 33.0% yoy which was in line with increase in sales. In the non-ferrous sector all the four companies in our coverage reported 21.6% fall in operating profits on an average, mainly due to lower prices, higher power costs and lower by-product sales. Among mining companies, Sesa Goa and MOIL also faced severe margin pressures during the quarter; MOIL was hit by lower prices while Coal Indias margins were hit by higher staff costs.

Other income boosts adjusted PAT growth for some companies: Among the steel players, both JSW Steel and SAIL reported a healthy growth in other income by 83.2% and 435.0% yoy respectively which boosted their bottom lines. However, Tata Steel was an exception where other income fell by 92.5% yoy due to a higher base on account of a one-time other income realized by the company in 1QFY2012. All the non-ferrous players reported an average increase of 30.8% yoy in other income due to higher cash balance and increased yields; however except for Hindustan Zinc, the increase in other income failed to boost their bottom-lines because of higher interest costs for the quarter. Due to a 21.0% yoy depreciation of INR against the USD, some companies (SAIL, Sesa Goa, JSW Steel and Sterlite) reported forex losses.

Valuations inexpensive, but we remain selective: Metal stocks have been battered over the past six months on account of escalating eurozone debt crisis, subdued domestic demand, decreasing prices, rising input costs and delays in obtaining procedural clearances for mines. Nevertheless, we believe that the recent fall has left some stocks undervalued. We like companies with captive assets, strong visibility over its expansion plans, low leverage levels and inexpensive valuations. Hence, our top picks are Tata Steel, NMDC and Hindustan Zinc.
