What the record says.
RHI Magnesita India delivered a record quarterly revenue of ₹1,092 crore (+8% YoY) and EBITDA of ₹150 crore (+14% YoY), with EBITDA margin expanding to 13.7% (+300 bps YoY). PAT surged 29% YoY to ₹62 crore. Growth was driven by strong project deliveries in iron making, flow control, and fourpro wins, along with improved product mix and operational efficiencies. The company turned net cash (₹35 crore) from net debt of ₹200 crore in Q2. Management guided for sustainable margins of 14-15% and expects Q4 to be similar or slightly better. Key risks include intense competition from imports and domestic overcapacity, which may limit pricing power. The company is focusing on localization, recycling, and cost optimization to protect margins.
Colored figures show movement against the previous available record.
Guidance to track
- Management targets a sustainable EBITDA margin of 14-15% in the medium term, driven by cost optimization and product mix improvements.
- Management expects Q4 margins to be on similar lines as Q3 or slightly better, barring market headwinds.
- A new fourpro contract signed in January with a greenfield steel plant in Punjab is expected to generate ₹50-60 crore additional revenue from next fiscal.
- The company aims to increase its recycling rate from 19% to over 20% in the coming year.
Risks flagged
- Domestic overcapacity and aggressive pricing by competitors, including imports, limit the company's ability to pass on cost increases.
- While alumina prices have bottomed out, magnesia and other inputs may see upside, potentially squeezing margins.
- Analyst raised concern that margin improvement partly stems from one-time performance bonuses, which may not recur at the same level.
- Although improved, the company still has significant receivables from PSUs, which could stress working capital if collection slows.
Key quotes
- We are not into that race of getting the order at any cost. We have our internal strategy up to what level we will go for a order or if it is below that we will not go we will leave it.
- We have signed some new contract with one of the biggest industrial integrated steel plants somewhere in Punjab. So first time in group strategy they have given from the commissioning stage fourpro contract to any refractory industry in the world.
- We don't give out these material. We have never done that historically. We will not start to do that now.
