TATA POWER CO Tripped by one off

Transcription

1 RESULT UPDATE TATA POWER CO Tripped by one off India Equity Research Power Tata Power (TPWR) reported a loss of INR2.6bn in Q4FY17 as it had to write off advances extended to Tata Sons as its share of contractual obligations in Tata Docomo. Key quarter highlights were: a) loss in Mundra was offset by profit in coal trading; b) sharpened focus on renewable business amply reflected in higher profitability in Q4; and c) loss in Delhi distribution business primarily due to lower billing rate and higher operating cost. Post the adverse Supreme Court order on CERC compensatory tariff for Mundra, key triggers for us are: (1) TPWR s ability to contain coal cost to mitigate the under recovery; and (2) sustained performance of renewable business. Though FY17 debt/equity at ~3x is a concern, TPWR s sharpened focus on pruning debt is a positive, in our view. Maintain BUY. Share buyback from Docomo drags PAT TPWR reported consolidated loss of INR2.6bn impacted by one-time loss of INR6.5bn due to share buyback from Docomo as the company had to write off advances extended to Tata Sons. Adjusting for this one off, the company reported profit of INR3.8bn versus consensus estimate of loss of ~INR 6bn. Performance of various businesses: A mixed bag Healthy performance of coal, solar manufacturing, renewable businesses and other associates & JVs helped TPWR offset the poor performance of Mumbai licence business, Delhi distribution business and CGPL. The company completed acquisition of Welspun Renewable (1,141MW capacity), which posted a stellar performance PAT of INR1.2bn for Q4FY17. Further, refinancing of Welspun debt is underway, which can potentially boost future earnings ~20-25%. Outlook and valuations: Focus on renewables; maintain 'BUY' TPWR s target is to take renewable s proportion to 30-40% of total generation portfolio, which is a key growth driver for the company. Also, its endeavour to prune debt, if successful, could be a key trigger for the stock. We maintain BUY with target price of INR87.

4 Power Company Description Tata Power is a pioneer in India's power sector, with a presence in all spheres of the power industry, encompassing generation, transmission, trading, and distribution. Tata Power has demonstrated exceptional performance in its transmission and distribution JVs. The company was also awarded the first UMPP at Mundra (Gujarat) due to its lowest levelised tariff bid at INR 2.26 per unit. Investment Theme We believe TPC is poised to play an important role in the Indian power sector. The company in the past has exhibited expertise in project execution. The company has an installed capacity of ~11GW at FY17 end. The company has 30% stake in two coal mines of Bumi Resources with proven reserves of ~1.9bn tonnes. With rising coal prices, we believe, Tata Power will have significant profits from these assets. Key Risks TPC fully commissioned two key projects at Mundra 4,000MW and Maithon 1,050MW. The dynamics of Indian electricity market have undergone a sea change due to higher imported coal prices, weak customer finances, changing fiscal norms at coal exporting countries and now, a depreciating rupee. Hence, balancing between contractual supplies (both volume and price) and maximizing earnings has become a key determinant/risk. 4 Edelweiss Securities Limited
