These reports offer NDTV Profit’s subscribers an opportunity to expand their understanding of companies, sectors and the economy..ICICI Securities Report.In the last three years, Galaxy Surfactants Ltd. has grappled with a variety of challenges, yet delivered consistent earnings thanks to its robust business model and diversified portfolio. After a strong FY24E (+9.2%), we envisage Galaxy’s volumes slowing as India growth moderates while Africa, Middle East and Turkey improves. However, the company may revise its Ebitda/kg guidance upwards by at least Rs 1 in FY25E, as developed markets resume gaining traction. Galaxy Surfactants will likely achieve its growth guidance with net profit more than Ebitda more than volume – stressed upon greatly by the company. We cut our FY25E earnings per share by 3.8% on lower volumes estimates for India, and target price to Rs 2,440 (earlier: Rs 2,645), as we roll over our valuations to FY26E, and lower the multiple to 22 times (from 25 times). We upgrade our rating to Hold (from Reduce)..Risks Upside risks:Restocking driving higher-than-expected volumes from developed market. AMET volumes growing faster-than-expected. India volumes growth sustaining at higher levels similar to past three years compound annual growth rate. .Downside risks: Ebitda margin expansion lower-than-expected. India volume deceleration higher-than-expected.AMET market continues to remain challenging..Click on the attachment to read the full report:.HPCL - Strong Q4, Weaker Q1 Ahead, But Long-Term Prospects Remain Undiminished: ICICI Securities.DISCLAIMERThis report is authored by an external party.
