Stock Ki Giraawat Aur Market Ka Haal
Asliyat mein, Petronet LNG ka stock aaj 8.5% tut gaya, jo ki market ke overall performance se bhi bura tha. Jis samay yeh sab ho raha tha, BSE Sensex bhi lagbhag 2.34% neeche tha. Pichhle ek mahine mein toh Petronet LNG ka share 15% gir chuka hai, jabki Sensex toh sirf 10.5% hi neeche aaya hai.
Nomura Ne Kyun Di Warning?
Nomura ke analysts ne kaha hai ki company ke 'use-or-pay' (UoP) contracts mein cash flow timing ko lekar thoda risk hai. Yeh sab West Asia mein chal rahe LNG supply issues ki wajah se ho raha hai, jisne global supply chain ko affect kiya hai. India toh Qatar aur UAE jaise Middle Eastern countries se kaafi LNG mangata hai.
Revenue Aayega Par Cash Kab?
Nomura ki report kehti hai ki Petronet LNG apne UoP agreements ke under revenue toh record karti rahegi, bhale hi contract wali LNG time par deliver na ho. Asli masala yeh hai ki jab tak volumes deliver nahi hongi, tab tak actual cash collect karne mein deri ho sakti hai. Analysts ne 2021 ka bhi reference diya jab company ne customers ko support karne ke liye offtakers ko UoP volumes delay karne ki permission di thi.
Valuation Par Zyada Asar Nahi?
Nomura ka kehna hai ki yeh filhaal ek timing ka issue hai, paisa permanently loss nahi hoga. Isliye, company ke fair value aur target price par koi bada impact nahi padne wala. Agar FY27 ke saare UoP payments teen saal tak bhi delay hue, toh bhi target price sirf 1.6% hi kam hoga. Badi gadbad tab hogi jab UoP revenues ko force majeure ya contractual disputes ke karan cancel karna pade, jo EBITDA ko zyada affect kar sakta hai.
Asli Khatra Wahi Hai
Middle East mein chal rahi LNG supply ki gadbad hi Petronet LNG ke liye sabse bada factor bani hui hai. Haalanki contracts revenue ko immediate protection de rahe hain, company ke actual volumes, cash collection, aur earnings abhi bhi geopolitical tension aur supply chain ke upar neeche hone par depend karte hain.
