MUMBAI – ABB India Ltd. reported muted earnings for the June quarter, with its bottom line falling the first time in nine quarters. The total expenditure of the company for the reporting quarter rose significantly and this dragged the net profit down. ABB missed analysts' estimates for net profit.
The Indian subsidiary of the Swiss electrification and automation major reported a net profit of INR 3.52 billion for the June quarter, down 20.7% on year and down almost 26% over the trailing quarter. The company has also failed to meet the analysts' expectation of INR 4.75 billion. ABB reported revenues of INR 31.75 billion, up over 12% and marginally up on the quarter.
ABB's total expenditure for the June quarter was at INR 28 billion, up 20.5%, because of a 26% on-year rise in the cost of materials consumed which rose to INR 16.6 billion. The cost of materials consumed accounted for 59% of the company's total expenditure for the reporting quarter. Its other expenses also rose by almost 25% on year to INR 5.84 billion.
Revenue from the electrification business, ABB India's largest segment, rose over 23% on year to INR 13.8 billion.
The company said its net profit for the six months to June was INR 8.26 billion, down 8.5% on year from INR 9.03 billion. It said its revenues for Jan-Jun were INR 63.35 billion, up 7.2% on year. The company follows the calender year as its financial year.
The company posted an earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortisation of INR 4.14 billion, down from INR 5.42 billion in the year-ago quarter and from INR 5.82 in the trailing quarter. The EBITDA margin fell to 13.0% from 19.2% in the year-ago quarter and from 18.4% in the trailing quarter.
The company reported its total orders for the June quarter at INR 30.36 billion, down 12% on year, due to the impact of large order timing while base orders increased. ABB's order backlog crossed INR 100 billion, up 6%. ABB India announced an interim dividend of INR 9.77 per share.
The company reported weakness in orders for process automation, robotics, and discrete automation. The quarter was marked with softer demand growth, rising input costs, and continuing drag of geopolitical and trade uncertainty.
Friday, shares of the company had ended at INR 5,387.50, down 2.2%. End
