Adjusted EBITDA stood in-line to our forecast
• PLNG’s revenue declined by 6.1% YoY to Rs86 bn, adj. EBITDA declined by 3% YoY to Rs9.1 bn whereas adj. PAT
grew by 4.3% YoY to Rs6.1 bn. The company highlighted that the implementation of Ind AS 116 had a net
impact of Rs520mn. The company’s total volume stood at 226tbtu out of which long term volume came at
107tbtu, tolling volume at 113tbtu and spot volume at 6tbtu.
New projects and expansion plans to boost growth
valuation and outlook
• The management has planned for a capex of Rs5bn in FY20E, also it plans to set up 2 tanks instead of 1 at Dahej
which will increase capacity from 17.5 mmtpa to 19.5mmtpa in 3 yrs with a cumulative capex of Rs23 bn. The
company is looking at various options for the investment in upstream assets in US for LNG supply in India at fixed
cost which would be less than US$6/mmbtu Further, LNG project at Bangladesh and Sri Lanka are still at the early
stage.
Sales volume rises 165% YoY
No competition threat
Key concall highlights
• Strong backing of LT contacts with off-takers gives PLNG an edge over its competitors. Its current volumes at
Dahej (est. ~86% of FY21 EBITDA) are protected via firm contracts up to FY28, including the contracted 5% YoY
tariff rise
• Petronet has declared highest-ever quantity of LNG in a quarter at 217 TBTUs after the expansion of plan from
15 to 17.5 MMTPA.
• Dahej LNG terminal achieved yet another milestone with its capacity expansion
• Company has adopted Ind AS 116 with effect from FY2019-20.
• They have recognized right to use assets and corresponding lease liability of Rs 3,829 cr. as on April, 2019.
Decline in net cash flow after interest costs
Way ahead for Dahej
• Services volumes jumped 23.3% QoQ to 2.2mmt (112tbtu). Surge in these volumes indicates that off-takers are
capitalising on soft LNG prices. Although spot volumes were low, we suspect these will rise with
1. Spare capacity availability after expansion, and
2. Persistently low LNG prices

Financials
Valuation :
 With growing energy consumption in line with GDP growth rate of the country and
as the GOI aims to significantly increase Natural Gas share in the market.
 Total demand of the gas across different sectors is expect to increase to 654
MMSCMD by FY2026-27.
 Also Dahej terminal in Gujarat, meets ~40% of India’s gas requirements and around
75-80% of LNG import in the country.
 Hence, we estimate PAT to grow at 15.2% FY19- 21E CAGR and EBITDA margin to
improve to 9.8% by FY21E.
 We recommendation BUY rating on the stock with a target price of Rs 300 based on
14x FY21E adj. EPS.
