The firm has posted a block buster results for the first quarter of the year. The profits are up to 2.35 times the June 2015 numbers with only 6.48% growth in revenue.

Key Takeaways :

  • They paid much higher tax last year (about 50%, don’t know why) so PAT is up big. At 64 cr. versus 27 cr. it’s +135%.
  • EPS at 2.26 for the quarter.
  • Increase in operating margin from 5.54% in Q1FY16 to 6.79% in Q1FY17. Not much though, but cost of material has gone down, but is compensated by higher other operating costs
  • The less noticeable other income increased from 2.03 Crs to 10.30 Crs. from the higher cash balances they have.
  • Finance costs reduced by 29.16% compared to Q1 last year. This is because they retired debt after getting a whopping 800 cr. from the sale of their stake in the Chola Insurance business.
  • Major revenue and profits came from Engineering (precision tubes) and metal products division (auto ancillaries). Both the division together accounted for 66.31% revenue but delivered 72.55% of the profit before tax and interest. Cycles and accessories division dragged down the net profit.

Note: For the quarter ending Mar-16, there was an exceptional item of Rs 820.78 Crs due to divestment in its subsidiary. (Chola Insurance)
