Research reports on J Kumar Infra
The latest research report available is that of HDFC Securities which has recommended a buy on the following rationale:
“JKIL reported an operationally strong quarter, with revenue/EBITDA/APAT at 11.3/1.6/0.7bn, beating our estimates on all fronts. In FYTD24, it won four orders worth INR 35.9bn (JKIL’s share at INR 34.2bn vs. revised FY24 inflow guidance of INR 80bn+), taking the FYTD24 OB to INR 143.5bn (~3.4x FY23 revenue, ex. L1 INR 41bn). Gross debt decreased marginally in Q1FY24 to INR 5.1bn vs. INR 5.2bn as of Mar’23, leading to a D/E of 0.21x. JKIL reiterated its FY24 revenue guidance to grow by 15% YoY with an EBITDA margin of 14-15%. Capex incurred in Q1FY24 stands at INR 330mn. With the receipt of new orders, the FY24 capex guidance stands revised to INR 2.5bn from INR 1.5bn. With ~62% utilization of fund-based limits, the company is well placed to incur capex with a mix of debt and internal accruals. Further, it guided for FY24-end debt levels at INR 5-6bn and NWC days at 120-130. Given the strong order backlog, improved execution and better margin profile, we increase our PE multiple to 9x, from 8x. However, given the limited upside on our TP, we maintain ADD rating on the stock, with an increased TP of INR 421/sh (9x Jun25E EPS).”
