Srikalahasthi pipes: Update.


Srikalahasthi pipes posted it's annual results on 12 may 2017. For March quarter ended  sales stood at 432.20 Cr.(Net Profit 31.19 Cr.) which was 291.56 Cr.(Net Profit 40.10 Cr.) for December Quarter and 315.05 Cr.(Net Profit 46.12 Cr.) for FY16Q4. for FY17 Sales stood at 1177.87 Cr(Net Profit 158.80 Cr.). which was 1145.61 Cr.(Net Profit 140.2 Cr.) in FY16. 

If we look at this data we can say that the quarterly as well as yearly results were bad, some people also told that "Srikalahasthi Pipes posted very bad result" (i agreed with them and if i saw this type of results for any other company before 3 years i told the same. Because that time i compared sales and profits qoq/yoy.)

                                   


Now, come to the point we have to check the reason for sharp fall in Net Profit for March quarter. now analyse detailed results they spent 73.81 Cr. for Purchase of traded goods and which is not necessary to come in each quarter as you can see in the results for previous 3 quarters it was NIL and it was 29 Cr, for FY16.

purchase of traded goods not belongs to Raw materials (i can say this because the showed it separately for each year) and it may be higher this year because of expansion. already highlighted this as well in my tweet on the day of result. so now, we can say that results were not bad. 

What is next trigger? 


On the result day i told my calculated EPS for FY18 around 70.
let's do some calculation for that, as discussed above the purchase of traded goods is not applicable for each quarter and if they show the expenditure for the same in my view it may be around 20-30 Cr. So, I can add 50 Cr. in to the profit of March quarter which was 31 Cr, so Sri may post Net Profit around 81 Cr. (EPS of 20) or 70 Cr. (EPS of 17.5) and annual EPS may come around 70-80. 



Beside this i got great news for srikalahasthi pipes is that it may become debt free from Q1FY18. click here
