However, as a percentage of overall advances, restructured assets still remain at low 3.8% (much lower compared to other PSU banks).

The company’s net sales increased by 16.3% yoy to Rs.2,617cr mainly due to increased iron ore sales volumes to 5.0mn tonnes (+5.4% yoy) as well as higher realization to US$94 (+10.0% yoy). Net sales were higher than our estimate of Rs.1,775cr due to higher-than-expected sales volumes. However, EBITDA declined by 11.8% yoy to Rs.1,085cr on account of increased export duty.

Excluding exceptional items, adjusted PAT declined by 18.4% yoy to Rs.870cr (above our estimate of Rs.562cr). We keep our rating and target price under review.
Union Bank of India
For 3QFY2012, Union Bank of India posted a disappointing set of numbers, which were far below our as well as streets estimates, primarily due to higherthan- expected provisioning expenses. While NIMs improved by 10bp qoq and gross and net NPAs were largely stable on a sequential basis, substantially higher provisioning expenses dented the overall bottom line. Consequently, net profit took a hit and declined by 66% yoy and 44.1% qoq to Rs.197cr.

TGBL
TGBL reported its 3QFY2012 results yesterday, which were in-line with our estimates. The company reported top-line growth of ~12% yoy to Rs.1,793cr, against our estimate of Rs.1,734cr. OPM came in at 9.6%, against our estimate of 9.9%. The company’s margins fell on account of higher raw-material costs and ad spends. TGBL reported an 11% yoy decline in its earnings to Rs.64.1cr, against our estimate of Rs.64.5cr. The stock is under review.
IRB Infra
For 3QFY2012, IRB reported a modest set of numbers, which were above our and street estimates.

Earnings for the quarter reported a decline of 0.7% to Rs.132.0cr (Rs.133.0cr), above our estimate of Rs.81.5cr on account of better-than-expected performance on the revenue front.
Our valuation of Rs.182/share for the consolidated business uses NPV/EV/EBITDA based valuation for BOT assets and the C&EPC arm, respectively. We factor in CoE of 14% and a traffic growth rate of 5/6/7% for its BOT assets. Owing to the recent run up in the stock, we recommend Accumulate with a target price of Rs.182.
Vijaya Bank
For 3QFY2012, Vijaya Bank registered an 18.1% yoy decline in its net profit to Rs.124cr, below our estimates, mainly due to higher provisioning expenses than built in by us. Due to higher prevailing interest rates, the bank’s NII suffered, declining by 11.5% yoy to Rs.475cr. Non-interest income of the bank registered a moderate performance, growing by 13.5% yoy to Rs.116cr. Although operating expenses of the bank declined by 7.4% yoy, provisioning expenses jumped up substantially by 45.7% yoy to Rs.167cr, leading to an 18.1% yoy decline in net profit. Bottom-line performance would have been worse without the support of a lower effective tax rate (7% in 3QFY2012 compared to 28.3% in 3QFY2011).
The bank’s asset quality remained under pressure in 3QFY2012 as well, with gross and net NPA rising by 20.7% and 31.0% qoq, respectively. Gross NPA ratio as of 3QFY2012 stood at 3.0% (2.5% in 2QFY2012), while net NPA ratio stood at 1.8% (1.4% in 2QFY2012). We continue to remain Neutral on the stock.
