JSW Steels 4QFY2013 standalone results were better than our expectation both on top-line and bottom-line front. We maintain our Neutral recommendation on the stock. Realization dips on lower steel prices: JSW Steels standalone net sales declined by 2.8% yoy to `9,249cr, above our estimate of `8,779cr due to higher-thanexpected realizations. Net sales growth was driven by an increase in steel volumes (+5.2% yoy to 2.43mn tonne), although the same was partially offset by a decline in realizations (-10.1% yoy to `38,638/tonne). Lower costs boost EBITDA growth but higher interest dents PAT: JSW Steels EBITDA increased by 2.8% yoy to `1,697cr mainly due to lower raw material and fuel costs. However, interest expenses grew by 20.3% yoy to `443cr and the depreciation expenses grew by 11.7% yoy to `527cr. and hence the adjusted net profit declined by 19.8% yoy to `443cr (above our estimate was of `271cr). Updates on new projects: The company new 2.3mn tonne capacity which is in technological collaboration with JFE Steel will be commissioned in October 2013. This facility has the capability to produce very high quality steel like Auto grade steel and Electrical steel which will have higher realizations. Outlook and valuation: JSW Steel aims to raise utilization levels at its Vijaynagar plant during FY2014. However, we believe increasing steel production meaningfully during FY2014 would remain a challenge until there is significant rise in iron ore supplies from Karnataka mines (we expect iron ore supplies in Karnataka to improve during 2HFY2014 as category B mines commence production). Moreover, we opine that JSW Ispats merger with JSW Steel is likely to be value-destructive for JSW Steels shareholders. The stock is currently trading at 3.8x FY2015E EV/EBITDA. We maintain our Neutral view on the stock. Key financials (Consolidated)

Lower costs boost EBITDA growth: JSW Steels EBITDA increased by 2.8% yoy to `1,697cr mainly due to lower raw material and fuel costs. The raw material costs declined by 6.8% yoy to `5,814cr. The power costs were lower due to better coal linkages in this quarter. Higher interest and depreciation costs dents PAT performance: Interest expenses grew by 20.3% yoy to `443cr and the depreciation expenses grew by 11.7% yoy to `527cr. The company reported an exceptional item related to forex loss of `130cr. Hence, the adjusted net profit (excluding exceptional items) declined by 19.8% yoy to `443cr (above our estimate was of `271cr). The reported net profit was however down 23.8% yoy to `573cr.

Update on iron ore mines in Karnataka: On the iron ore situation in Karnataka, the company stated the Supreme Court has capped the mining limit in Karnataka to 30mn tonnes and has elongated the mine life criteria for the existing mines to 20 years. However the company expects the total availability of iron ore in Karnataka at around 24mn tonnes by end of FY2014. Updates on new projects: The company new 2.3mn tonne capacity which is in technological collaboration with JFE Steel will be commissioned in October 2013. This facility has the capability to produce very high quality steel like Auto grade steel and Electrical steel which will have higher realizations.

Investment rationale
Utilization levels remain at risk: Although JSW Steel has expanded its capacity, its Vijaynagar plant (capacity 10mn tonne) continues to operate at lower utilization levels on account of shortage of iron ore due to mining ban in Karnataka. Although we expect iron ore supplies to improve gradually during FY2014 as category B mines commence operations, there is lack of clarity on the timelines and anticipated production from these mines. Procedural delays in the commencement of operations from Karnataka mines could result in higher iron ore costs/lower utilization for JSW Steel.
Merger with JSW Ispat to be margin-dilutive: JSW Steel is expected to merge with JSW Ispat over the coming one year. However, JSW Ispats margins are much lower compared to JSW Steels standalone margins. Given the commodity nature of the business, JSW Steels Management is not expected to turnaround JSW Ispats loss making plants in the near-term, in our opinion. Further, JSW Ispats debt will raise debt-equity ratio of the merged entity. Hence, JSW Ispats merger with JSW Steel is likely to be value-destructive for JSW Steels shareholders (at least during our investment horizon).

Company background
Incorporated in 1994, JSW Steel is India's second largest private sector steel maker with a steel making capacity of 11mn tonne. The company has the most modern steel plants with the latest technologies for both upstream and downstream processes. The company has an iron ore mine in Karnataka which fulfills 15% of its requirement. During FY2011, the company acquired 49% stake in JSW Ispat for an enterprise value of US$3bn and is now expected to be merged with JSW Steel during CY2013. The combined capacity of both companies would be 14mn tonne.
