Ratnamani Metals and Tubes (RMTL) reported operationally good set of Q3FY21 numbers. For the quarter, topline came in line with our estimates while EBITDA & PAT came in higher than our estimates. Healthy operational performance was on the back of better-than-expected sales volumes from the stainless steel division (higher margin segment). This aided the company to report healthy EBITDA margins for the quarter. For Q3FY21, Ratnamani reported a net income from operations of Rs. 441 crore, broadly in line with our estimate of Rs. 448 crore. Stainless sales volume was at 5015 tonnes (higher than our estimate of 4550 tonnes) while carbon steel sales volume were at 32968 tonnes (lower than our estimate of 48125 tonnes). EBITDA came in at Rs. 80 crore, higher than our estimate of Rs. 66 crore. EBITDA margin was at 18.1% (highest in the last five quarters) higher than our estimate of 14.8% (14.3% in Q3FY20, 14.2% in Q2FY21). Ensuing PAT for the quarter was at Rs. 60 crore, higher than our estimate of Rs. 41 crore.
