Lloyds Metals And Energy Ltd. reported revenue of ₹1,554 cr for January to March 2024, — on the year and −18.7% on the quarter.
Operating profit (EBITDA) was ₹458 cr, a margin of 29.5%, — on the year and +599 bps on the quarter.
Net profit was ₹277 cr, — on the year and −16.6% on the quarter, with earnings per share of ₹5.48.
Metal margins move with the spread between product prices and coal and ore costs, so large quarterly swings are normal here and say more about prices than about the business. The quarterly statements do not carry volumes, realisation per tonne and the cost of coal and ore; those come with the filing read.
On earnings per share of ₹24.61 over the last four quarters, the stock at ₹1,851.10 trades at 75.2 times trailing earnings.
Written from the quarterly statements. The filing read adds the balance sheet and cash flow filed with this quarter, the auditor's review, segment results, one-off items line by line and what management said on the call.
