NMDC: Strong rebound seen in profitability in March quarter and FY19

NMDC's decision to cut iron ore prices by 3-4 per cent or Rs 100 a tonne from March 1 may have weighed on street sentiment, but analysts say the company's prospects remain healthy. They say, some price cuts were expected given that NMDC had consistently raised prices of iron ore lumps and fines, taking the total increase to 34 per cent and 38 per cent, respectively since November 2017. The move has also surprised some on the street given that iron ore prices ex-china had touched 10 month highs of $79.95 a tonne at the end of February. NMDC's price hikes during November-February had been supported by rising international iron ore prices from sub-$60 a tonne, as well as mining disruptions in Odisha. With the restart of some mines in Odisha after mid-February, some price adjustment was anticipated.The bigger gain, as the street sees it as, will come in the form of higher volumes. NMDC's production at 24.3 million tonne (MT) during first nine months of FY18 was up marginal by three per ...

Favourable winds for NMDC stock

After seeing a steep correction between February and June, the NMDC stock has rebounded 15 per cent to ~121 levels. More gains are likely.While the stock's correction was due to declining iron ore prices, recovery in prices and strong June quarter performance lifted sentiment. From highs of $90 a tonne in February, iron ore prices had fallen to $50 levels by June-end. The price is now close to $75 a tonne. Despite a correction in iron ore prices during the June quarter, profitability of NMDC improved. Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (Ebitda) per tonne, at ~1,628, surged 55 per cent year-on-year and 71 per cent sequentially. NMDC being able to hold on to the price hikes taken in the March quarter, despite declining iron ore prices, was one of the reasons for better profitability. The support came from strong demand as Karnataka auction prices increased 4-9 per cent, say analysts at Kotak Institutional Equities.The company also surprised with ...
