Conference Call Highlights


 KEC’s business recovered across all segments barring a few minor
localised issues. Execution improved on the back of increasing
labour strength, mechanisation, digitisation and automation
 During the quarter, margins were impacted as costs escalated on
account of continued extra costs being incurred for Covid-19, steep
depreciation of the Brazilian riyal and relatively faster execution in
railways and civil
 YTD order inflow is at | 4366 crore, up 16% YoY. Order inflow from
core T&D witnessed a substantial improvement largely from the
international market
 L1 position of | 3500 crore is largely from international T&D business
 Brazil is seeing improved conditions as the pandemic is now under
control while volatility in metal prices is now becoming relatively
stable. Execution of the three ongoing EPC projects has been
ramped up while one project is slated to be complete by this quarter.
KEC has also commenced on a new EPC project in Brazil
 The railway business witnessed robust growth of 45%. In line with
diversification in railways, KEC has secured its first order for metro
electrification. The company will continue to bid in non-civil areas in
metros such as power supply, ballastless tracks, SNP etc
 The cables business is on track for commercialisation of new
products in H2. We expect reasonable growth in cables business,
going ahead
 Net debt is at | 2424 crore as on September 30, 2020. Interest cost
for the quarter was 2.1% as a percentage of sales, reduction of 80
bps over last year. The company is confident of staying well within
the target of | 2500 crore net debt, going ahead
 Revised bidding of green energy corridor phase II tenders is in an
advanced stage. Proposals are expected to be submitted this month
 KEC has quoted ~ | 30000 crore worth of tenders in the last few
months and would be quoting ~ | 25000 crore worth of tenders in
the next two months. However, given the current scenario, order
awards have been slightly low
 Currently, KEC is L1 for four orders in SAE. These are under
negotiation and can get finalised by January. Execution of these
orders, if awarded, would commence from Q1FY22. KEC has been
cautious in taking new orders in Brazil owing to huge volatility in
metals and other raw material prices
 Given the lower rupee cost of borrowing in India, KEC is switching
towards rupee loans and has started selling more foreign currency.
Thus, next quarter may witness some forex gains
