1 RESULT UPDATE HINDUSTAN ZINC New frontiers to keep up the zing India Equity Research Metals and Mining We reiterate BUY on Hindustan Zinc (HZL) with TP of INR395, implying 20% upside from current levels as: 1) growth momentum is expected to sustain with 1.35mtpa production capacity by FY23E; 2) Q4FY18 Cost of Production (CoP) fell 10% QoQ at USD925; and 3) sustained tightness is expected in zinc (Zn) market. Q4FY18 performance was slightly ahead of consensus owing to lower cost and higher silver volume. On volume growth and cost efficiencies we estimate EPS CAGR of 15% through to FY20. Our TP implies exit multiple of 12.7x, broadly in line with the stock s recent trading range. In-line quarter HZL s Q4FY18 EBITDA of INR36.2bn was ahead of estimates due to: 1) record silver volume of 170 tonnes owing to ramp up of Sindesar Khurd (SK) mine; and 2) CoP at USD925/t (down 9%QoQ) owing to higher proportion of linkage coal (March exit rate at 30%). Going ahead, we expect EPS CAGR of 15% through to FY20E on: 1) capacity ramp up to 1.2mtpa which is largely on track; 2) cost efficiencies moving up to USD 30-35/t from reduced haulage cost and higher proportion of linkage coal; and 3) silver volume ramping up from 558tonnes in FY18 to ~750 tonnes by FY20E (refer Hindustan Zinc - Making hay while Zinc shines!; visit note; Buy). Upbeat on next phase of expansion program We are upbeat on HZL s next phase of expansion program that will enable it to increase mined metal (MM) production capacity by 1.4x FY18 to 1.35mtpa by FY23E and ultimately to 1.5mtpa. We believe this will enable the company to enhance its market share in the global markets, while maintaining cost leadership. We expect HZL to benefit from tight zinc market as: 1) new capacities coming onboard are still lower than incremental demand; and 2) global inventories remain at historically lowest level of six days of consumption. Outlook and valuations: Sustained growth seen; maintain BUY We see HZL benefitting from volume growth of 1.2mtpa by FY20E and favourable Zn macro environment. As a result, we expect EPS CAGR 15% through to FY20. At CMP, the stock is trading at 11.1x FY20E EPS. We maintain BUY/SO with TP of INR395, implying exit multiple of 12.7x, in line with its recent trading range.

In CY19, demand for finished Zn is expected to grow at 2.5% to 14mt as compared to supply growth of 5% to 13.6mt. Normal Zn inventory at stock exchanges has historically been 20 days of consumption. Zn market tightness is likely to continue as against 1.5mt of incremental demand; supply is expected to grow only by 1mt. Zn market is highly sensitive to the timing of new supply coming on board. However, management expects market tightness to continue as incremental supply is lower than demand. Operational highlights In FY18, underground production of ore and MIC went up 26% YoY and 52% YoY, respectively. Metal in Concentrate (MiC) production at 714kt was the highest. The last leg of open pit mining was completed in Q4FY18. Henceforth, the entire production would be underground. Average Zn-lead grade in Q4FY18 was at 8.74% compared to 11% in Q4FY17. Zn grade has improved sequentially with underground transition complete. 3 Edelweiss Securities Limited
4 Metals and Mining HZL is making scheduled transition to underground mining with total production from UG mines increasing by 54% YoY to 714kt. In FY19, management expects MiC production to be slightly higher as compared to FY18 with estimated split of 45:55 between the two halves of the year. The Zn metal CoP/t before royalty was INR (USD925) in Q4FY18, up 12% YoY (down 10% QoQ), primarily due to higher cost of carbon products (up 50% YoY) and oil derivatives and lower grades. However, management is confident that overall cost in FY19 will be in the USD /t range as proportion of linkage coal increases progressively and grades improve. HZL is expected to source 40% of coal through linkages. The company will be participating in upcoming coal auctions to further increase the domestic coal mix. Imported coal cost for Q4FY18 was USD92/t. Management expects this cost to come down to USD85/t in FY19. HZL has residual hedges of 70kt for Zn at USD3,076/t and 15kt for lead at USD2,374/t. This will be exhausted in Q1FY19. Management has not taken any further forward contracts going ahead. Reserves and Resources (R&R) at the end of FY18 stood at estimated 411mt. HZL added 19.5mt in FY18 as against depletion of 12.5mt. 1.2mtpa in sight, planning for next frontier of 1.5mtpa HZL is evaluating plans to increase its mined metal capacity from 1.2mtpa to 1.5mtpa. Phase 1 of the project has been approved which is likely to increase MIC capacity from 1.2 to 1.35mtpa in three years at an investment of INR 45bn. HZL will be putting up a new smelter of 240ktpa (likely at Dariba). Capacity increment at Rampur Agucha, Sindersar Khurd and Raajpur Daariba mines is expected at 0.5mtpa each. Outlook and guidance: Reiterated production guidance of 1.2mt by FY20 FY19E MIC is expected to be slightly higher as compared to FY18 Silver production is expected to be tonnes in FY19 COP/t before royalty is expected to be USD Tax rate is expected to slightly higher as compared to FY18 Project capex in FY19 is expected to be USD 400mn Quarterly depreciation expense is expected to be INR3.5-4bn Q3FY18: Key conference call highlights Macro outlook: Management maintains bullish outlook on zinc Management reiterated bullish outlook for zinc due to low global inventory (7 days of consumption) and continued supply constraints. In CY18, demand for finished zinc is expected at 14.8mt against mined supply of 13.8mt. Indian consumption is expected to grow 4% YoY in FY19E. Global outlook also looks promising with positive macro indicators in Europe and stable (but slow) demand in China. 4 Edelweiss Securities Limited
5 Hindustan Zinc Operational highlights Average zinc grade in Q3FY18 was lower at 6.15% compared to 8.6% in Q3FY17 and 8.13% in Q2FY18. HZL is making scheduled transition to underground mining with 100% production expected to come through this route in FY19. This is expected to increase the grade as well as reduce logistics cost up to USD25/t. The zinc metal CoP/t before royalty was INR66,118 (USD1,022) in Q3FY18, up 14% YoY, primarily due to higher cost of carbon products (up 50% YoY) and oil derivatives and lower grades. However, management is confident that overall cost in FY18 will be in the USD /t range as proportion of linkage coal increases progressively and grades improve. HZL is expected to ramp up sourcing from linkages to 40% progressively. Additionally, the company will participate in future auctions. Management stated that coal supply through linkages has only commenced in Q4FY18 as Coal India was diverting production to power plants in Q3FY18. HZL hedged 220kt of zinc and 30kt of lead at a price of USD3,084/t and USD2,418/t, respectively. Of this, while 165kt is for Q4FY18, balance is for Q1FY19. Currently, there are no further hedges. Depreciation during the quarter has gone with ramp up of mined metal production and capitalisation of new mills. Management expects the quarterly run rate to be at INR45-50bn. Treasury income is expected to be in the INR3.5-4bn range. In the current quarter, it was affected to the extent of INR0.75bn owing to reduced corpus and INR1.15bn owing to reduction in yield rate by 70bps. Current cash balance is at INR192bn. HZL paid off the balance tranche of INR6bn of short term debt and incurred INR7bn in capex in Q3FY18. Outlook and guidance: Reiterated production guidance of 1.2mt by FY20 HZL reiterated that zinc-lead metal production will be 950kt in FY18, while silver production will be over 500t. In FY20, mined metal production is expected to be 1.2mt, while silver production is estimated at ~750tonne. Management expects COP to dip in FY19 via combination of increased sourcing through linkages, improvement in grades and production efficiency. Annual tax rate is expected to be slightly higher than MAT at almost 23%. 5 Edelweiss Securities Limited

7 Company Description Hindustan Zinc HZL is a part of the Vedanta Group and is the only integrated zinc manufacturer in India, with zinc smelting capacity of 823 ktpa and lead smelting capacity of 185 ktpa. The company is the second-largest integrated zinc and lead producer in the world. It caters to ~80% of zinc demand in India. The company s fully-integrated zinc operations include three lead-zinc mines, two zinc smelters, a lead smelter, and one lead-zinc smelter in Rajasthan. HZL s mines supply most of its concentrate requirements. Investment Theme Continued supply constraints following mine closures provide a stable growth outlook for Zinc going forward. Further, volume ramp in the forecast period will result in benefits of operating leverage. We like HZL for its ability to deliver ~50% EBITDA margins and maintain good dividend yield. It is among the lowest cost in the world and has a strong Balance Sheet with no debt. Key Risks HZL s share price is sensitive to LME zinc prices. Lower-than-estimated LME prices in the event of a demand slowdown or oversupply will adversely impact the company s earnings. Lower than expected volume growth INR appreciation and/or lower metal premiums 7 Edelweiss Securities Limited
