Result Flash - NTPC - 4QFY2011 - Buy

Dear All,

Forwarding you the Result Flash on NTPC for 4QFY2011 with a Buy recommendation and a Target Price of `209 (12 months).

NTPC’s audited results for 4QFY2011 was much better than the provisional results declared by the company earlier. The company’s standalone net sales rose by 25.6% yoy during the quarter to `15,519cr, higher than our estimates of a 12.2% growth. The growth in top-line during the quarter was aided by grossing up of the RoE under the normal tax rate for FY2011 instead of the MAT rate. The company had grossed up its RoE under the MAT rate during 9MFY2011. The growth in top-line is also on account of higher fuel cost, which is a pass-on. Despite the increase in capacity on yoy basis, the company’s generation volumes remained flat during the quarter on yoy basis on account of low PLF. The operating profit rose by 40.6% yoy during the quarter to `4,279cr. The net profit for the company rose by 37.9% yoy to `2,782cr.

For FY2011 as a whole, the company posted a 18.5% yoy increase in standalone net sales to `54,874cr. The OPM was down by 213bp yoy and stood at 28.8%. Fuel costs rose by 20.1% during the year. On the Bottom-line front, the net profit rose 4.3% during the year to `9,103cr. We recommend a Buy on the stock with a target price of `209.
