Posted at 23/12/2024 10:58 by philjeans Extract from the Co Report 20/12/24;"On 11 & 12 November 2024, the Directorate of Enforcement (ED), Chennai Zonal Office, conducted search operations at various premises associated with the OPG Group, as part of an investigation into alleged violations under the Foreign Exchange Management Act (FEMA) and Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) Regulations. The Company would like to assure our stakeholders that the Company has fully cooperated with the authorities throughout this process and has provided all requested business-related information in a timely manner. The Company remains committed to adhering to all applicable regulations and will continue to offer full cooperation with the enforcement authorities. The Company are confident in the integrity of our operations and will promptly supply any additional details that may be required by the relevant authorities. The Company continues to strengthen its balance sheet and liquidity position which provides OPG with the financial strength and latitude to pursue new growth opportunities in energy transition. The increase in electricity demand and transformation in the power sector in India provides a prime opportunity for OPG to continue to generate profitable revenues through its sustainable operations. The Company expects to continue to generate strong cash flows from its operations." N Kumar Non-Executive Chairman |
Posted at 21/12/2024 00:08 by starpukka Yes the figures look good but the fact that the fraud investigation is ceo-and not company- specific, didn't stop the share price crashing initially. So, it all seems precarious to me.Further fraud disclosure or charges brought would surely drop the price again ? No suggestion of ceo resigning or being sacked yet ? And isn't it most likely that others are found to be involved ? I'd be surprised if he is a one man band in all this. "Oh what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive". |
Posted at 20/12/2024 09:42 by rivaldo Very good H1 results, setting up OPG for a massive beat of what now look like very conservative forecasts.The H1 £4.3m PBT means OPG only need to make £0.8m PBT in H2 merely to meet forecasts of £5.1m PBT and 1.2p EPS. Cavendish have a 28p target price predicated on their forecasts, so there must be decent further upside on a beat. The £22.3m net cash is more than the current m/cap! Of course this may or may not be an unusually high balance due to payment schedules etc, but the £4.5m forecast year end cash pile also now looks seriously underpowered. Particularly as coal prices - OPG's main cost - which rose in late September/October have plummeted in November and December to their lowest levels since March: |
Posted at 13/11/2024 10:49 by tim000 You say it nearly trades on a P/E of 2, but the interesting question is what is OPG’s most appropriate measure of profits? I’m not sure there’s a single conclusive answer to that. The company highlights EBITDA, but it does pay a lot of interest and tax. I don’t care about depreciation, that’s just an accounting concept not particularly relevant to a long-life power generating asset. It’s certainly a highly cash generating business in a country with rapid growth in power demand. My view is that if/when they decide to return a high proportion of FCF to shareholders, the share price will indeed rocket. But possibly not before then and the next annual results are about ten months away. It’s then that the company will review its capital allocation policy. |
Posted at 05/11/2024 11:04 by rivaldo All OPG need to do imo to get the share price moving is to continue as they are - if they can continue to produce improving EPS/profits and a growing cash pile then the share price will follow.Once the cash has really piled up then OPG could announce the resumption of dividends to further boost sentiment. I suspect that OPG have learnt their lessons in terms of diversification and will concentrate on what should be a winning strategy in terms of leveraging the continuing and long-term boom in demand for power in India. |
Posted at 05/11/2024 10:08 by rivaldo Last year's H1 results were on 13th December, so not long to go.With historic 1.02p EPS increasing to 1.2p EPS forecast to March'25, and OPG now having £3.6m net cash (incl. restricted cash), OPG looks in excellent shape with Cavendish forecasting a much lower tax charge this year offsetting higher distribution costs and thus a lower PBT. We already know that OPG are getting 70% plant load this year, slightly ahead of last year, and they've told us that coal and freight prices continue to normalise. Cavendish have a 28p target price and note 42.3p per share of NAV. These forthcoming results should be enough to get things moving nicely if all goes well. |
Posted at 27/9/2024 09:47 by rivaldo For those without access, Cavendish's new note has a 28p target price:"We are basing our valuation on a forward EV/EBITDA multiple for OPG Power, based on FY25E. The peer group average multiple is 11.0x. We apply a small-cap discount for OPG, which we are conservatively setting at 30%, for a target multiple of 7.7x. This give us a target price of 28.0p, which is an increase from our previous target of 27.0p." Cavendish summarise: "Recovery confirmed – The cheapest way into India OPG Power reported FY March 2024 results which were better than our forecasts at the EBITDA and net debt levels and in line or better overall. The period saw normalisation of coal prices following the disruption caused by Covid and saw Plant Load Factor recover to 69.2%. We expect OPG to continue operating at good levels of plant utilisation, sustaining profitability and cash flow. We are introducing forecasts for FY March 2025E. We expect the net cash position to continue rising over coming years and, with the shares trading on an EV/EBITDA of only 3.0x to March 2025, OPG offers investors a cheap way to gain exposure to the dynamic and fast-growing Indian economy. Our price target of 28p is based on a conservative discount to comparable Indian companies." "Valuation upside: We value OPG by comparison with the Indian power utilities sector using EV/EBITDA multiples. The valuation table is included on page 3. OPG compares favourably to this peer group in terms of balance sheet strength and cash generation. We nonetheless base our valuation on a conservative small-cap discount of 30% for OPG, in line with wider market valuation trends, and arrive at a target price of 28.0p. The valuation is also underpinned by a strong asset base, with an NAV of 42.3p per share." |
Posted at 10/9/2024 15:24 by tim000 That may even be a retail price, it’s not trustworthy. OPG usually gives info on its coal prices paid in its trading updates. I don’t expect there has been any coal price inflation this year, as I say. A positive for OPG investors is that it’s something of a counter-cyclical stock and hence provides useful portfolio diversification. Indian demand for power is always high, meaning producers always have high capacity utilization of their plants. By contrast, input costs (ie costs of thermal coal) are cyclical and so margins and profits should be counter cyclical.The company has been opaque in the last couple of years about its true ambitions - does it wish to be a growth company (past forays into renewables and geographical diversification away from Chennai have failed and had to be reversed), or a safe dividend stock? It has mentioned buying coal mining assets if I remember correctly, but fortunately nothing has come to pass on that. They’ll be much better off with a strategy of deleveraging and returning capital to shareholders. As mentioned, that would see a much higher share price. |
Posted at 29/8/2024 13:12 by gb904150 To be fair, until OPG show a willingness to distribute profits then the share price is perfectly correct in languishing where it is.It's not enough to be cheap but hopefully OPG will soon have so much cash it will be embarrassing not to distribute it. They've made hints at a willingness to do so in previous RNS's but nothing yet. From the 2023 Annual Report: Dividend policy One of the OPG’s paramount objectives is to maximise stakeholders’ long-term value. Keeping in mind, the disruptions and uncertainty caused by the extraordinary volatility in coal prices and related freight, the management, in consonance with the Board believes that it is in the best interests of the Group and its stakeholders to conserve cash. The cash thus accumulated will be used to maintain a strong and resilient balance sheet to withstand turbulent times. Therefore, the Board decided not to declare a dividend for FY 23. The Board will revisit the Group’s dividend policy in due course. Dividends Due to the disruptions caused by the extraordinary volatility in coal prices and freight, the Board has made the decision in the best interests of the Group and its stakeholders to conserve cash. This cash conservation will be allocated for debt repayment, funding growth in ESG-focused projects, and ensuring a strong and resilient balance sheet capable of withstanding turbulent times. Consequently, the Board has chosen not to declare a dividend for FY 23. The Board plans to review the Company’s dividend policy at a later date, once coal prices and electricity tariffs stabilise. The real question is what does Arvind Gupta want? When he decides he wants dividends he will get them. One of the reasons the share price also stays so low is the lack of balance to ownership. A majority stake is never good. It was healthier when there were lots of ii's holding stakes. But they all sold out following the CSR/ESG/EDI/net zero edicts. |
