What Does the Company Say on the Declined Share Price?

As per the company, the surprise decline of 26% Year-on-Year (YoY) is due to the slow-moving orders. “The company's backlog has grown by 44% YoY in Q4 FY24 as thermal orders picked up, but operationally, a flat execution led to another weak quarter. We believe that the company's thermal business looks bleak beyond FY30”, said the brokerage firm.

Morgan Stanley also shared a target below the current market price, setting it at INR 220 per share, which indicates a downside of 34% as Q4 earnings missed estimates. However, they maintained an ‘equal weight’ rating on BHEL seeing improving earnings visibility with strong orders and a healthy project pipeline. 

BHEL's Revenue & Profit Analysis

BHEL's net profit fell 26% YoY to INR 489 Cr. in the Q4 FY24 while revenue rose by 0.4% YoY to INR 8260 Cr. Along with this, the company's EBITDA, also known as the operational profit dropped by 30.6% YoY to INR 728 Cr., while the EBITDA margins squeezed by 400 basis points (bps) YoY to 8%. The PSU firm's board recommended a final dividend price of INR 0.25 per share for FY24.

Going ahead, the analysts at Kotak Institutional Equities believe that focus on execution would be the key for BHEL.

Kotak said that against 1.3x YoY order backlog, the revenue growth guidance is a modest 10-15% YoY. A potential miss in execution would impact the overall working capital for BHEL.  Furthermore, BHEL may end up sharing part of pricing gains from the orders with its vendors, limiting the case for margin uptick hereon. They also cautioned sharing a ‘sell’ rating on the counter with a target price of INR 75 per share.
