ICICI OUTLOOK ON INDIAN POWER, MINING,CEMENT, AND SHIPPING SECTORS PERFORMANCE IN 2012


Broking firm, ICICIdirect (India)  has come out with report on sectors outlook for 2012. IRIS has collated key highlights for each sector from ICICI’s report.

Power - Underperform
The power sector in CY11 was characterized by robust capacity addition (12737 MW taking total capacity to 185,496 MW), tariff hikes, fuel shortages, back down by SEBS, change in Indonesian coal law and rise in interest rates. ICICIdirect expects capacity addition to be robust in CY12 (our bottom up analysis suggests that nearly 9400 MW can be added in CY12). ICICIdirect is cautious as structural issues like policy reforms and fuel shortages are more critical than cyclical factors like falling interest rates. One should stick to regulated entities like NTPC, NHPC (regulated players, less fuel risk, high Actual Contract Quantity from Coal India, sustainable earnings growth via capacity addition).

Metals and Mining - Underperform
CY11 was a challenging year for the metals and mining sector on the back of a muted demand scenario, elevated raw material costs and restriction of mining of iron ore in certain areas. During the first nine months of CY11, prices of key raw materials such as iron ore and coking coal were on an upward trend while in Q4CY11 along with a decline in raw materials costs steel prices also tapered off resulting in no respite for steel companies. As a result, on the back of elevated cost structure the operating margins of steel players remained under pressure for CY11. Going forward, on the back of global uncertainty and a muted demand scenario, ICICIdirect expects global steel demand to remain subdued in CY12.

Cement - Underperform
Cement demand has been sluggish in the past 20 months (growth of 4.4% in FY11 and 4% in YTD FY 12) due to muted off take from construction activities. ICICIdirect  finds that cement demand growth has a high correlation with gross fixed capital formation growth as it captures the construction activities. GFCF declined 0.6% in Q2FY12 on account of a slowdown in infrastructure investments, keeping cement demand under pressure. ICICIdirect expects cement demand to grow by 4.5% in FY12E and 8% in FY13E.

Shipping - Underperform
The shipping industry is currently passing through a downturn, which is likely to be prolonged. A moderation in demand and substantial increase in supply on account of new vessel additions is expected to keep freight rates subdued.
