Resilient operational performance in H1FY22 and anticipated pick up in domestic construction activities in H2 gives confidence to achieve its full year production target of 8.0-8.5 million tonne.

JSPL Standalone Performance

During Q2FY22, JSPL Standalone reported highest ever steel sales (incl. pig iron) of 2.13 million tonne (Up 32% QoQ). Sales volumes during the quarter were ahead of production of 1.93 million tonne, resulting in inventories declining sequentially. Inventory levels for the company have normalised in Q2FY22 from higher levels seen in Q1. Higher internal consumption also resulted in external sales of pellets falling to 0.20 million tonne (down 49% QoQ).

Higher volumes and improved steel prices led to JSPL reporting record gross revenues of Rs 14,550 crore. However, sharp rise in iron ore costs due to exhaustion of low cost inventory, higher coking coal costs (including associated freight costs) and lower pellet sales resulted in EBITDA being reported at Rs 4,519 crore. Strong operating profit and declining finance costs have all contributed in JSPL posting profit after tax (PAT) of Rs 2711 crore (up 2% QoQ).

Global Ventures

Mozambique: Chirodzi mine produced 954 KT ROM (up 9% YoY) in 2QFY22. Mozambique operations reported 2QFY22 EBITDA of US$ 17.2mn (up 417% QoQ) on rising coking coal prices.

South Africa: Kiepersol mine in South Africa produced 181 KT ROM (up 22% QoQ). The mine reported an EBITDA of US$ 1.8mn for the quarter on the back of improved coal prices.

Australia: Russell Vale mine has started production post receiving the final go ahead from the regulatory authorities. JSPL is expected to get the first shipment in the current month (November 2021). Wongawilli colliery continues to remain under care & maintenance as WCL (Wollongong Coal Limited) continues to work towards securing additional approval for restarting the mine.

Outlook by the company

India has recently hit the 100-Crore vaccination milestone with more than 75% of the eligible population having taken the first dose. Steady vaccination ramp-up and easing of COVID related restrictions are likely to help in broadening the recovery, and external demand conditions remain supportive. After remaining subdued in 1HFY22, construction and infrastructure activities are expected to recover strongly in H2FY22 as seasonally strong demand period sets in. This bodes well for JSPL with two thirds of its product portfolio catering largely to India’s Construction & Infrastructure sector.

Taking a cue from falling seaborne iron ore prices, the domestic iron ore prices have also been declining for the past three months. This could aid margins for the company going forward with three fourth of this key raw material sourced from third parties at this juncture. Start of operations from Kasia mine by end of Q3FY22 along with the operating Tensa mine is expected to provide more than 70% iron ore security for the Company’s steel operations. The domestic steel industry however continues to grapple with the sharp rise in the coking coal prices. Premium Hard Coking coal has risen by 180% so far in FY22 and currently trading close to USD400/t levels. However, resumption of our Russel Vale mine in Australia will provide some relief from rising coking coal costs, with first shipment expected in November 21.

The scrip is currently trading at Rs 422
