OMCs reported decent results in Q3 driven by strong volume growth and inventory gains. Core earnings of OMCs adjusted for inventory gains/losses came in at Rs12.7/12.1/7.6/share for BPCL/HPCL/IOCL versus reported EPS of Rs15.7/15.7/8.4.

Marketing margin of BPCL/IOCL improved by 2.3%/2% qoq to Rs4,143/3,860/mt. However, HPCL’s margin contracted qoq by 13.1% to Rs4,058/mt. Total debt declined by 8.3% qoq but interest cost increased by 42% qoq to Rs11.8bn due to capitalization of IOCL’s Paradip refinery which led to increase in interest cost.

Adjusting for refining inventory gain, GRM for Q3FY17 for BPCL/HPCL/IOCL came in at $3.9/4.08/5.1/bbl. Gross UR on kerosene came in at Rs16bn which was entirely compensated by the government and thus there was no burden on OMCs.

After adjusting for one-offs, core earnings of IOCL & BPCL came in-line with our estimates but HPCL missed the mark on this metric as marketing margins disappointed. However, broadly reported earnings of all three OMCs were in-line.

Hence, we expect upgrades to FY17E EPS by 20-25% with FY18 EPS following suit. Also, the OMCs look attractive on a dividend yield basis (c5% on CMP). So, we maintain our buy BUY recommendation on all the three OMCs with IOCL being our most preferred pick.

IOCL outperformed on GRM

GRM for Q3FY17 for BPCL/HPCL/IOCL came in at $5.9/6.4/7.7/bbl which implies an increase of 90% qoq on an average. Increase in GRM was mainly driven by widening of product crack spreads due to tighter demand/supply dynamics in the market and inventory gains across the OMC pack with IOCL achieving the highest GRM.

 Blended marketing margin declined

The OMC pack witnessed a decline in marketing margins on a qoq/yoy by 3.5%/9.2% yoy to Rs4,020/mt (avg. of OMCs) as HPCL’s marketing margin fell by 13.1%. Petrol’s marketing margin during YTDFY17 averaged Rs1.54/ltr while diesel’s averaged Rs1.42/ltr.

Interest cost increased qoq

Overall borrowings of all the three OMCs on a qoq basis declined by 8.3% to Rs695bn. However, interest cost increased by 42% qoq to Rs11.8bn mainly due to capitalization of IOCL’s Paradip refinery which led to increase in interest cost

 

Overall market share increased

For Q3FY17, IOCL lost market share by 44bps to 42.92% and HPCL/BPCL gained market share by 66/6bps to 18.67%/19.65%. Combined market share of the OMC increased by 28bps qoq to 81.2%.

Key takeawaysfrom BPCL’sconcall

Reason for lower GRM in Q3 due to commissioning of Kochi refinery’s new units, the impact (around $1/bbl) of which will be there in Q4FY17 as well. Management has indicated 80% utilisation in FY18 of the incremental 6MT capacity in Kochi refinery. Incremental benefit in terms of GRM on entire 15Mt volume is expected to be around $2/bbl while opex will increase by $0.5/bbl. The FCCU will get commissioned in Q1FY18. Kochi Tax deferral on a sustainable basis is Rs2.5bn. p.a. for 15 years.

 

Kochi refinery’s GRM stood at $6.1/bbl while the GRM of Mumbai refinery was at $5.75/bbl

during the quarter.

 

PSU market share in petrol & diesel was c95% & slightly less than 95% respectively.

 

Loss due to discount of 0.75%on digital payments was about Rs.180-190mn. till Dec.

2016.

 

Increase in other operating expenditurewas largely on account of higher transportation

expense and no one-off items.

 

There was a 2% increase in diesel volume growthin 9MFY17 for the oil PSUs. However, due to competition private players have grown at a faster rate versus oil PSUs.

 

Digital paymentsaccount for around 28% of total marketing sales currently a bulk of which comes from the loyalty program.

 

9MFY17 capex was Rs120bn.out which Rs60bn. was spent on the Russian acquisition. Capex for FY17 is guided at Rs125bn. excluding the Russian acquisition. FY18 capex is guided at Rs80bn. and for FY19 it is Rs105bn.

 

FY18 regular maintenance capexshould be Rs30bn., refining capex should be Rs.25bn., marketing capex is Rs7.5bn. & E&P capex is guided at Rs15bn.

 

Consolidated debt stood at Rs300-320bn. Standalone debt is Rs160bn, BPRL is

Rs140bn. and Bina debt is at Rs40bn. $ denominated debt is 90%+ of the total d

ebt balance. Debt repayment in FY17 is around $300mn. which is due in March 2017 and another $250mn. in Nov.-Dec. FY18.

 

Scheduled maintenanceof Kochi refinery is scheduled for Oct.-Nov. 2017.

 

Petchem plant-It is expected to be commissioned by the end of

2018. Out of the total capex budget of Rs46bn., Rs.4.15bn. has already been spent.

Key takeaways from Indian Oil concall

Paradip refinery-It has fully stabilised as of now with all units including secondary units

currently operating. Utilisation was 80% in the last couple of months while the full year

averageutilisation stood at 63%. Product evacuation and pipeline dispatches have also

started. VAT deferment for Paradip would be cRs18bn. on an annual basis. Interest cost

expensed would be around Rs9.5bn. p.a. going forward while depreciation should be

Rs.12bn. p.a. Opex for Paradip refinery is $2/bbl which is in-line with the opex of IOCL’s

other refineries at $1.92/bbl. Going forward, GRM will improve significantly as the Paradip refinery processes 100% high sulphur crude from FY18.

 

GRM-Core GRM (ex. Paradip& inventory gains) was $5.47/bbl for Q3 ($4.79/bbl in

Q2FY17) while including inventory gains, GRM (ex. Paradip) stood at $7.67/bbl. Core GRM excluding inventory gain was $4.92/bbl in 9MFY17 ($7.95 including inventory gains).

 

Entry tax-IOCL has been affected in the states of Bihar, UP and Haryana. Most of the

entry tax related cases might go against IOCL. Rs.1,923crores of provision has been

created for entry tax related charges and the management doesn’t expect any such

provisions going forward.

 

Capex guidance-FY18 capex has been guided at Rs196bn. while FY19 capex has been

guided atRs250bn.

 

Debt-Total DebtofRs370bn., 70% is in foreign currency and 30% is in INR terms.

 

Other pointers-1)Market share in MS increased in Q3. 2) Fuel & loss stood at 8.5% in

9MFY17 which is slightly lower compared to the same period last year.

Outlook and Valuation

After adjusting for one-offs, core earnings of IOCL & BPCL came in-line with our estimates but HPCL missed the mark on this metric as marketing margins disappointed. However, broadly reported earnings of all three OMCs were in-line. Hence, we expect upgrades to FY17E EPS by 20-25% with FY18 EPS following suit. Also, the OMCs look attractive on a dividend yield basis (c5% on CMP). So, we maintain our BUY recommendation on all the the OMCs with IOCL being our most preferred pick.

Indian Indices: Indian equity benchmarks continued their momentum to trade near highest point of the day in late afternoon session as broadly positive global indices and a strong rupee buoyed investors' sentiments. Sentiments also remained optimistic with the report that GST Council on Saturday approved a law to compensate states for any loss of revenue from the implementation of the new national sales tax but deferred approval for enabling laws to the next meeting.

Besides, investors opted for bargain-hunting as well as short-covering ahead of derivatives expiry this week. On sectoral front, buying was witnessed in most of the steel sector stocks with Care Ratings report that the country's steel production and consumption is likely to remain higher in 2017-18 from 89.79 MT of crude steel during 2015-16 backed by an increase in infrastructure allocation in the Budget.

Indian Indices: Asian markets opened mixed with the Japanese 'Nikkei' seeing marginal losses as export data released today disappointed coming below most estimates. However the huge Kraft Heinz bid for Unilever globally would be the talking point this week as M&A activity picks up. This also should see higher valuations for most FMCG stocks as value buying props up stock prices. 


Nifty saw a huge move till almost 8900 led by banks with Bank nifty scaling new all time highs in morning trade on Friday. However domestic profit booking trimmed the gains with Nifty closing @ 8821.The left out feeling seems evident for most foreign investors & any fall is being used as an opportunity to buy with huge scramble to buy HDFC bank shares on Friday seeing the stock hit fresh all time highs. For this holiday shortened week expect volatility to rise as we head for derivative contracts expirythis Thursday.


The BSE Sensex is currently trading at 28499.07, up by 30.32 points or 0.11% after trading in a range of 28419.27 and 28521.16. There were 18 stocks advancing against 12 stocks declining on the index. The broader indices were trading in green; the BSE Mid cap index was up by 0.57%, while Small cap index was up by 0.71%.

In US, retail sales rose 0.4% in January, a faster pace than had been expected, while the consumer price index rose 0.6% in the month, the largest amount in four years, though this was largely due to a rebound in the price of gasoline.

Global Economic News:

US economy shows signs of strength
After a run of strong economic data from the United States, hopes intensified this week that the reflationary period underway since late 2016 would prove more durable than the four prior upturns during the current business cycle, which began in early 2009. January retail sales were a major bright spot, rising a better-than-expected 0.4%, while December sales were revised up 1% versus a previously reported 0.6% advance. Firmer consumer prices at both the headline and core level, buoyant manufacturing output and upbeat regional Fed manufacturing surveys—particularly the Philadelphia Fed's manufacturing index — which soared to a 33-year high — added to investor optimism. 

Fed’s Yellen reiterates case for rate hikes
After a string of strong economic reports, markets expect the US Federal Reserve to hike rates in the first half of 2017, perhaps as soon as next month’s meeting of the Fed’s rate-setting committee. In congressional testimony this week, Chair Janet Yellen said that it would be risky to wait too long to raise interest rates and that the committee would consider hiking rates in coming meetings. Yellen holds press conferences once per quarter, and the two rate hikes this cycle have both come at meetings that were followed by press briefings. Her next press conference is scheduled for 15 March, with another on 14 June.

Mnuchin confirmed as Treasury pick
US president Donald Trump’s pick for treasury secretary, Steven Mnuchin, was confirmed by the US Senate this week and sworn into office shortly thereafter. Tax reform is expected to be Mnuchin's early focus with Trump unveiling his tax reform package in the next few weeks.

Greek bailout lenders at loggerheads
The International Monetary Fund and eurozone finance ministers remain at odds over the direction of the Greek bailout process. The two sides hope to iron out a deal early next week to allow the IMF to release €7 billion in aid to Greece ahead of European elections, which kick off next month. The creditors hope to keep Greece from becoming a campaign issue in elections in the Netherlands in March and in France in April and May for fear that the matter could further fuel an anti-European Union populist backlash. IMF and Eurogroup finance ministers have been unable to reach agreement on the IMF’s proposal to grant Greece some level of debt relief. Without that relief, the fund says, Greece’s debt is unsustainable.

GLOBAL CORPORATE NEWS

Comings and goings in Washington
It was an eventful week for appointees of President Trump. In addition to Mnuchin taking the helm at Treasury, the president accepted the resignation of his national security advisor, General Michael Flynn. Trump scrambled to nominate R.

Fundamental Pick of the week:

Derivative Ideas Glenmark Pharmaceuticals Ltd For Target Rs. 980.00

 

After trading with bearish bias for over a week, GLENMARK posted decent recovery from day’s low on 16th February and settled near day’s high, indicating buyer’s interest at current levels. Early signs of recovery are also visible on the daily chart. Considering all, we recommend buying this stock.

Recommendation

Buy  Glenmark Pharmaceuticals Limited   @ 926-930 Stoploss 905 Target  980

Indian Market Outlook:

Markets rebounded swiftly today and gained over half a percent. The upbeat trade deficit figure aided a firm start which was supported by select index majors. Mostly sectoral indices traded in line with the benchmark and ended higher. Besides, recovery in the midcap and smallcap space added to the positivity. We feel the consolidation is not over yet and its range has slightly broadened now. A decisive move above 8850 in Nifty will trigger further up move else range bound bias will continue. Amidst all, stocks are witnessing moves on both sides so traders should focus more on trade management and maintain a balanced portfolio. .

Conclusion:


The NIFTY seems to be locked in a tussle spacing 8827-8715, that’s around a 115 points. Index may now look for an immediate technical trigger to break this deadlock. Some correction towards 8640-8580 levels may set in, if prices break the low @ 8715 mark. In the medium term, the SUPPORT zone now shifts upwards to 8537, the 3 week LOW; followed by 8330, that corresponds to 5 week’s LOW. On the other hand, If 8850 gets breached convincingly, upside to the July 2016 HIGH @ 8935 would be in contention.

Indian Indices: Asian markets saw routine profit booking in early trade as the Dow Jones index managed to close flat after seeing huge gains in the past few days. The flow of money is now seeing buying emerging markets indices & stocks more aggressively as the developed markets get more expensive. With the MSCI world index hitting all time highs equity flows may continue to chase stocks in the near term.


Nifty rebounded in style & closed within reach of 8800 as IT, energy & gas stocks led the way forward. With expiry due next Wednesday expect another attempt @ 8840 with possibility of hitting 8900 by next week on the cards. For today expect pullback in Auto's, Banks &Mid caps as the broader market may outperform. Shares of HDFC Bank would be in action after the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) removed the heavyweight from ban list for FII Share Purchase. The aggregate foreign shareholding in HDFC Bank has slipped below 72%. The limit specified under the existing FDI Policy is of 74%. Thus, the restriction on purchase of shares of HDFC Bank is withdrawn with immediate effect.


The CNX Nifty is currently trading at 8821.15, up by 43.15 points or 0.49% after trading in a range of 8804.25 and 8896.45. There were 26 stocks advancing against 25 stocks declining on the index.

Arvind’s Q3FY17 revenue growth was in-line with our estimates, while EBITDA margins were impacted due to one-offs. Key highlights: 1) Consolidated revenues at Rs23.3bn were up 15% yoy, with textile revenues increasing 8% yoy and B&R revenues increasing 24% yoy. EBITDA at Rs2.4bn down 8% yoy. EBITDA margins corrected down by 250bps yoy to 10.1%, impacted by higher employee costs, weaker mix, and investment in the internet business. Lower interest burden was offset by lower other income resulting in APAT of Rs756mn, down 16% yoy.

Demonetisation impact wears off; Maintains guidance of 15% growth

Company has maintained its revenue growth guidance of 15% going forward, driven by 25% growth in the B&R division. Growth in textiles is expected to be subdued at c.8%. Operating leverage, localised sourcing and improved performance from “Unlimited”, growth brands and specialty retail are expected to partially offset weaker mix (which will weigh down EBITDA margins). We have built in a 14.6% revenue CAGR over FY16-19E. We expect consolidated EBITDA margins to decline by 70bps in FY17E and to improve by 40/20bps in FY18E/19E.

3)The B&R business is well placed with a strong portfolio of brands, and is expected to drive growth.

Technically View:

 

The stock is currently trading around 50 days and 100 days, moving average that is all about good positive moov& uptrend signal on daily base. RSI &MFI is present at 48 and 68respectivally, which is uptrend& showing the sideways formation for the short term period. The stock is currently in the upward formation and when it hold above 400 then somemore upside is expecting with major support is found 330 level. MACD line is greaterthen signal line 10 day Avg Volume is very high.

 

 

VALUATION & OUTLOOK:

 

While the revenue growth was in-line with our expectation, the impact of demonetisation on the trade channels, advancement of EOSS and investment in the internet business impacted profitability. The B&R business is well placed with a strong portfolio of brands, and is expected to drive growth. Owing to the weak profitability in the quarter and EBITDA mix moving in favour of low margin B&R and Garmenting segments, we have cut our EBITDA by 6%/4%/2% for FY17E/18E/19E respectively and consequently cut our EPS by 12%/8%/4% for FY17E/18E/19E. We maintain ACCUMULATE rating with revised price target of Rs450/share.

 

We retain our Buy recommend in this script with a price target of Rs 450 in the very short term outlook. So Entry would be around 380-370as recomanded in this counter.

Global Economic News:

Greek debt drama rekindled
Once again Greece faces a deadline to receive much-needed bailout funds from its international backers, but so far it has not fulfilled the terms of its prior commitments. With heavy debts coming due in April and July, Greece hopes to strike a deal at the last EU summit before the European election calendar kicks off in March. Finance ministers meet on 20 February, with Greece near the top of their to-do list. There is mounting concern that several European partners will not participate in the bailout any longer if the International Monetary Fund doesn't. The IMF this week called Greece’s debt burden unsustainable and called for debt forgiveness.

Le Pen lays out economic vision
Populist French presidential candidate Marine Le Pen formally kicked off her campaign this week, laying out her economic agenda. Le Pen called for pulling France out of the eurozone, reintroducing the franc and drastically curbing immigration. Le Pen has consistently led the polling in the first round of France’s two-round system but trails a variety of centrist challengers in the second round.

China’s reserves slip
Having peaked in 2015 at over $4 trillion, China’s foreign exchange reserves slipped below $3 trillion in January, according to government data. Beijing has been selling down reserve assets for the past 18 months to try to stem capital outflows from the Chinese mainland.

Commons backs Brexit
The UK House of Commons voted on Wednesday to allow the government to begin negotiations with the European Union. The bill now goes before the House of Lords, which can delay but not halt the triggering of Article 50.

Euro too low for Germany
German finance minister Wolfgang Schaüble this week acknowledged that the euro’s exchange rate with the US dollar is too low for Germany’s competitive condition but said that the European Central Bank must make policy for all of Europe, not just Germany. Tensions were inflamed both inside and outside the eurozone as Germany posted a record annual trade surplus, in excess of €250 billion. US president Donald Trump’s principal trade advisor commented recently that Germany has been manipulating the euro exchange rate in order to gain competitive advantage.

GLOBAL CORPORATE NEWS

Trump consults with Asian leaders
US president Donald Trump spoke by phone for the first time with Chinese president Xi Jinping and reaffirmed the US commitment to the One China policy. That policy was called into question during the presidential transition, when Trump had direct contact with Taiwanese president Tsai Ing-wen, an apparent breach of protocol. Trump urged closer US–China ties in the call, according to the White House.

US earnings rebound
As of 7 February, Thomson Reuters reports that fourth-quarter earnings for the S&P 500 Index are expected to increase 8.2% from the fourth quarter of 2015. Of the 300 companies in the S&P 500 that have reported to date for the fourth quarter of 2016, 68% have reported earnings above analyst expectations. The Q4 2016 blended revenue growth estimate is 4.3%. The forward four-quarter (1Q17– 4Q17) P/E ratio for the S&P 500 is 17.4.

Fundamental Pick of the week:

Derivative Ideas LIC Housing Finance Ltd For Target Rs.590.00

 

LICHSGFIN added around 1% of open interest as fresh long positions along with some delivery based buying in previous sessions. On charts it is holding strong above its long term as well as short term moving averages on daily charts. We suggest doing a covered call as per levels given below.


Recommendation

BUY LICHSGFIN FEB FUTS BETWEEN 557-559 SL 549, TARGET 590.


Indian Market Outlook:

The Nifty traded in a narrow range throughout the day and was unable to close above 8800. However, it did manage to close in the positive territory for the day as well as for the week. On the lower side, the immediate support is at 8770, whereas the resistance is pegged at 8830, ie the trend line joining the recent highs. The overall trend in the short-term remains positive, as the Nifty is still trading above its crucial support levels. The Bank Nifty looks weaker in the short term compared to the Nifty, but if it manages to surpass the swing high of 20407, then it will gain further upward momentum. The momentum indicator KST has gone into a ‘sell’ mode for both the Indices, which is the only concern in the short term.
