Why? What are the reasons?

The above table
shows that about 75% of the dividends distributed by the company come out of
non-operating income itself. In other words, even if the company fails to earn
any profits, still it could continue to pay 75% of what dividends it is
currently paying.
On
this parameter the company’s performance is highly satisfactory.
B.Market
Condition:
Price to Earnings Ratio:
At the current
market price of Rs.103.30 and Earnings Per Share (EPS) based on the audited
financial statements of financial year 2014-15 the PE Ratio is 6.38, well below
the recommended 10. However based on provisional numbers of FY 2015-16 the EPS
has deteriorated to 6.88 on account of steep fall in commodity prices globally
and therefore the PE Ratio has climbed to 14.85. For the quarter ended June
2016, the EPS is 2.55. If we annualize it, for the whole of the financial year
2016-17, EPS could be 10.13, very near the recommended 10.
The
market condition as far is this parameter is concerned is not favorable.
Price to Book Value per Share:
With a book value
of Rs.75.56 for the financial year 2015-16 and a price of Rs.103.30, the price to book ratio still stands below
the recommended maximum of 1.5, at Rs.1.37.
On
this parameter the market condition is still favorable.
Dividend Yield:
We have already
seen that NMDC Ltd. pays handsome dividends. Combined with reasonable market
price the dividend yield is a highly attractive 10.78% post tax, at a maximum tax rate of 33.33%, this dividend will
translate into a yield of 16.16%.
Which financial
instrument today can put such an attractive sum of cash in an investor’s
pocket?
On
this parameter the market condition is highly favorable
Distance from 52 week high:
The 52-week low
for this share is Rs.75.15. and the distance to 52-weel high is 11.48%. After
the recent gain in the share price of 11.02% in the last quarter and the CMP
standing at 103.30, the share today is available at +37.45% from the 52-week
low. However on 15th January 2016 the CMP was Rs.89.10 and the
52-week low was Rs.123.05. At that level the price was trading at a discount
27.59%.
The
market condition as far is this parameter is concerned is not favorable.
Five year Return:
The five-year
return (return measured by change in share price) is -58.78%. Which means that
today’s CMP of the scrip is 58.78% lower than at what price it was trading five
years back. Which also indicates that if we buy at current price, the share has
the potential to gain at least Rs.150 from today, if not more.
On
this parameter the market condition is still favorable.
C.
Conclusion:
- NMDC Ltd. is a wonderful company.
- Global commodity prices have fallen to ridiculous levels and had impacted many commodity companies including NMDC. However the prices have stabilized.
- Though lower compared to earlier years, the EBDITA, EBT and PAT margins are still very healthy.
- Company has been generating free cash flows for many years and we can expect it to do so for many years to come.
- The company has an excellent dividend paying track record. The dividend yield too is enviable.
- PE Ratio has crossed the recommended maximum of 10, but we expect it to come down to below 10 based on robust EPS, even though price may increase.
- Price to Book Value is still in comfort zone.
- Price has crossed the 52-week low and in the positive territory which is not very favorable for buying.
- Five-year returns are still in the negative zone which mean the stock can be purchased and there is very good scope for price gains.
- Finally, despite a few negative market conditions, there is still scope for value investors to purchase this stock at the current price.
