Sensex - 8197
Price - 31.15
I had originally posted on Aditya Birla Chem here followed by updates on the Q1 and Q2 results.
The company’s Q3 results are back on track post slight downturn in Q2 because of the boiler blast which affected production. Sales has grown sequentially from Rs 46 crores in Q2 to Rs 49.8 crores in Q3. More importantly Net profit has grown from Rs 6.4 crores to Rs 12 crores where the Q2 profitability was affected due to one time expense on repair and maintenance. Quarterly EPS moved up from 2.78 to 5.14.
Cumulative EPS for first nine months 13.6 and annualise EPS works out to be Rs 18.33. The stock currently is trading at nearly 1/3rd its book value and a P/E ratio of 1.71 times.
The company also got rechristened to Aditya Birla Chemicals from Bihar Caustic. I continue to hold the stock and add at opportunities
