RHI Magnesita India - Excellent Performance | Q1FY27 Company Update
RHIM’s 1QFY27 performance was beat to our estimates due to better than expected price surcharge and operating efficiencies, leading to robust margins, despite ongoing input cost inflation. RHIM has also gained market share at steel plants and added new 4PRO contracts. Increasing traction in coke oven projects will further add revenue visibility in 9MFY27E. This, along with benefits of internal cost control, new product localization, recycling of RM due to the JV with Khemka Refractories and start of Quartz mines should result in cost savings. The release of working capital due to tighter inventory and lower receivables has led to a net cash balance sheet of Rs 1.4bn as of Jun’26, ensuring future capex through internal accruals. The margin expansion and growth are largely in-line to meet our full year estimates. Therefore, we have maintained our revenue and EBITDA estimates but have marginally increased interest expenses, leading to a 3%/2% cut in earnings for FY27E/ FY28E. We value RHIM at average of 15x Jun’28E EV/EBITDA (unchanged) and 28x Jun’28E PER (unchanged) to arrive at a TP of Rs 522/share (previously Rs 500). Remain positive on RHIM and maintain BUY rating due to attractive valuations.
RHI Magnesita India Ltd. Stock Price Chart
Strong value growth offsets weak offtake:
RHIM reported 6% yoy growth in consolidated revenues at Rs 10.1bn in 1QFY27 (miss to our estimates) impacted by a 6% yoy decline in offtake, more than offset by 12% jump in realization. Rise in realization was mainly due to price surcharge received from customers (mainly from the flow control refractories).
Margins surged due to price hikes and internal efficiencies:
RHIM reported a 293bps yoy surge in consol. margins at 13.6%, supported by price surcharge and operational efficiencies, partially offset by rising Magnesite and gas cost. This translated into 35% yoy growth in consol. EBITDA at Rs 1.4bn. Adj. PAT grew by 83% yoy to Rs 646mn.
Price hikes and market share gains to aid performance:
The market share gains in steel & iron making and new 4PRO contracts are sustainable and should aid growth in upcoming quarters. RHIM has doubled its wallet share at one of the largest steel plants. Traction in coke oven projects has improved substantially with new projects signed, and expected to be executed in 9MFY27E. Additionally, price hikes implemented in 1QFY27 and more expected in the ongoing quarter are expected to enhance value growth in FY27E. This, along with benefits of internal cost control, new product localization, recycling of RM due to the JV with Khemka Refractories and start of Quartz mines should result in cost savings. The release of working capital due to tighter inventory and lower receivables has led to a net cash balance sheet of Rs 1.4bn as of Jun’26, ensuring future capex through internal accruals. The margin expansion and growth are largely in-line to meet our full year estimates. Therefore, we have maintained our revenue and EBITDA estimates but have marginally increased interest expenses, leading to a 3%/2% cut in earnings for FY27E/ FY28E. Remain positive on RHIM.
Valuation and rating:
We value RHIM at average of 15x Jun’28E EV/EBITDA (unchanged) and 28x Jun’28E PER (unchanged) to arrive at a TP of Rs 522/share (previously Rs 500). We maintain BUY rating due to attractive valuations. Upward revision in TP is mainly due to valuation roll forward. Key risks: Over-capacity and price cutting in domestic market, RM cost pressure.
