The company reported decline in volume by 5.2% YoY and 8.0% QoQ resulting from significant decline in export volume. Exports declined due to slowdown in Europe and very low export prices of China in South East Asian market. Despite witnessing a decline in volumes, revenue from carbon black reported a growth of 6.4% YoY primarily due to higher realizations. Revenue from the power division increased 10.7% YoY and 1.1% QoQ as the tariffs were more or less flattish. The overall slowdown in the auto segment has resulted in many tyre companies to resort to production cuts thereby impacting performance of the company. We believe that the prolonged slowdown in the auto industry has impacted the overall performance; however any revival from here on will lead to a recovery. Going forward, in Q4FY13E Management aims to maintain the current sales volume. Margins are expected to remain under pressure for Q4FY13 considering the lower capacity utilization and increase in crude prices from Q3FY13 levels. We believe that FY13E on a whole will remain a subdued year and positive development will happen only in FY14E due to lag effect. Although the company s near term outlook does not look encouraging, we believe that the current valuations largely factors all the concerns. With safeguard duty imposition and compelling valuations, the risk reward ratio turns favorable for PCB. We believe that the downside risk from these levels stands limited and any revival in the overall auto scenario from hereon can lead to a significant improvement in the performance. The current market cap of the company is only Rs 293 cr against Sales of Rs 2,500 cr on an annual basis. We have pruned our FY13E estimates to incorporate the 9MFY13 results and now expect the company to end FY13E at a loss on net level. However, we expect an improvement in FY14E over FY13E and expect the company to report sales growth of 13.1% and EBITDA margin of 9.5% and PAT margin of 3.5%. At CMP, the stock is trading at P/E of 3.22x on FY14E earnings whereas on P/BV it is trading at 0.45x on FY14E. PCB is trading at EV/EBITDA of 7.64x FY13E and 3.86x FY14E. We expect PCB to report RoE of 13.9% in FY14E. We continue to maintain our BUY rating on the stock with a target price of Rs 110 indicating an upside of 29.1% from current levels. PCB reported net sales of Rs cr up by 5.8% YoY & down by 6.5% QoQ. RM as % of sales increased to 81.8% in Q3FY13 as compared to 77.5% in Q3FY12. However, on QoQ basis the raw material cost witnessed a significant respite and declined from 87.6% to 81.8%. Decline in raw material cost coupled with control over employee and selling cost led to an improvement in EBITDA on sequential basis. Margin (%) PAT (Rs crs) Margin (%) EPS (Rs.)

There is a steep drop in export volume due to slowdown in Europe and very low export prices of China in South East Asian market which made exports to S.E Asia market economically not viable. Most of the tyre companies have resorted to production cuts which have also impacted the sales of the company. RM as % of sales increased to 81.8% in Q3FY13 as compared to 77.5% in Q3FY12. However, on QoQ basis the raw material cost witnessed a significant respite and declined from 87.6% to 81.8%. The increase in RM cost on YoY basis is on account of inability to pass on high raw material prices due to lower off-take in the domestic market and higher imports of carbon black from China and other countries. EBITDA declined from Rs 53.8 cr in Q3FY12 to 30.8 cr reflecting a decline of 42.7%. In Q2FY13 the company had reported negative EBITDA of Rs 0.2 cr. Decline in raw material cost coupled with control over employee and selling cost led to an improvement in EBITDA on sequential basis. The company reported forex loss of Rs 16.3 cr in Q3FY13 as compared to loss of Rs 4.7 cr in Q3FY12 and Rs 6 cr in Q2FY13. The company returned back to profitability with the help of reversal in tax and reported a profit of Rs 0.8 cr vs loss of Rs 35.2 cr in the last quarter. However, on YoY basis the company reported 96.1% decline in profitability. The 50,000 MT Carbon Black expansion at Cochin plant is expected to be completed by Q4FY13. This suggests that Management is optimistic about demand in FY14E and thus is planning for capacity expansion. 2 P a g e

3 Segmental Performance Revenue from carbon black (CB) segment having ~96% revenue contribution stood at Rs cr whereas revenue from power segment contributing ~4% to total revenue stood at Rs 32.6 cr. EBIT margin in CB segment stood at negative 2.4% vs 6.1% in Q3FY12 and negative EBIT of 4.5% in Q2FY13. EBIT margin in power business stood at 72.4% (an improvement both QoQ and YoY) vs 68.7% in Q3FY12 and 69.6% in Q2FY13.

Volumes in the quarter declined by 8.0% YoY & 5.2% QoQ to 68,054 MT. Out of this, exports were at 18,727 MT, down by 15.4% YoY & 14.2% QoQ. Net realizations in power segment stood at Rs 2.92/unit vs Rs 3.03/unit in Q3FY12. The company has not been able to capitalize completely on its power business as the increasing dumping from China had led to production cut in the company s carbon black business which also impacted the company s power business marginally. Going forward, however, we believe that the company will be able to witness an improvement in the power revenues and will be able to reduce the risk of cyclicality of carbon black business Particulars Q3FY13 Q3FY12 YoY Q2FY13 QoQ Carbon Black Volumes (MT) 68,054 71,761 (5.2%) 73,954 (8.0%) Domestic (MT) 49,327 49,628 (0.6%) 52,140 (5.4%) Export (MT) 18,727 22,133 (15.4%) 21,814 (14.2%) Carbon Black Realization 77,174 68, % 75, % Power volumes % 73 (9.4%) Power realization (3.6%) % 3 P a g e
