BHEL Q4 result preview

Ebitda is seen at Rs at Rs 1,423 crore, rising 71 per cent YoY and 161 per cent QoQ, with Ebitda margins may come in at 14.2 per cent, surging sharply. Net profit may come in at Rs 1,005.9 crore, soaring 158 per cent YoY and 99 per cent QoQ.

BHEL’s net revenue could rise with improved margins led by a pickup in execution and increasing share of new orders in execution mix, JM added. "We expected improvement in sales due to healthy order book and execution and improvement in Ebitda due to operating leverage and better order mix."

Kotak Institutional Equities has pegged BHEL's revenue at Rs 10,520.9 crore, up 17 per cent YoY and 24.2 per cent QoQ. Ebitda may come in at Rs 914.7 crore, up 10 per cent YoY and 67.7 per cent QoQ; while Ebitda margin may improve 225 bps sequentially to 8.7 per cent for the quarter. Net profit may come in at Rs 627.9 crore, up 24.6 per cent YoY and 64.2 per cent QoQ.

"We expect 17 per cent YoY improvement in revenues driven by Power and Industrial segments. We factor in a low single-digit impact on overall execution from lower availability of industrial gases for metal cutting within BHEL's operations. We expect 56 bps YoY contraction in Ebitda margins, despite 160 bps YoY improvement in gross margins over a weak base," Kotak adds.

"We expect BHEL to report revenue growth driven by strong execution in its Power segment. Margin may expand led by execution ramp-up. During the quarter, BHEL received a Rs 13,500 crore main plant package of 3×800MW Telangana Stage-II STPP. BHEL’s execution pace in its Power segment, order prospects and working capital management will be key monitorables," PL Capital adds.
