Stock Idea: Usha Martin

PINC Research has maintained its buy rating on Usha Martin with a 12-month target price of Rs 135 in its August 8, 2008 research report. "Usha Martin Ltd. (UML) reported net sales of Rs 7 billion for Q1FY09, a YoY growth of 39% driven by sales volumes of value added products and overall buoyancy in realisations. The above factors also led to a 323bps expansion of OPM, as the company could sustain raw material cost advantage through its captive iron ore mines. Operating profit consequently rose to 1.5 billion (+62%). Net profits grew 73% to Rs 651 million."
"The stock trades at a P/E 6.2x, which we believe does not factor in the volume growth and the upcoming backward integration. We remain positive on the stock and reiterate our ‘BUY’ recommendation with a 12-month price target of Rs 135," says PINC's research report.
