JK Cement (JKCE) is increasing its grey cement capacity by 27% to 18.7mtpa by FY23-end, driving a CAGR of 11% in grey cement volume over FY22-25E. JKCE further intends to increase its grey cement capacity to 25mtpa by FY25E.

According to Motilal Oswal, "We value JKCE at 13.5x Sep'FY24E EV/EBITDA (premium to its five-year average one year forward EV/EBITDA of 12.5x) to arrive at our TP of INR3,170, an upside of 17% from its current levels. We upgrade the stock to Buy from Neutral."

We estimate further upside will be driven by 1) EBITDA growth (12% CAGR over FY22-25E); 2) improvement in profitability of grey cement business (estimate blended EBITDA/t of INR1,075/INR1,150 FY24E/FY25E); and 3) higher OCF, which will support expansion as well as deleveraging of its balance sheet, added Oswal.

2QFY23 performance was adversely impacted by one-time costs incurred for new plants. While the new plants will weigh on near-term performance, strong demand is expected to drive strong revenue/PAT growth from FY24 onwards, added Oswal.
