Not Rated Shyam Metalics and Energy Ltd for Target N/A by Choice Institutional Equities
Product Mix Transformation to Drive Earnings Growth:
Management highlighted a significant shift in its product portfolio over FY26–FY31E, with higher-margin and value-added products emerging as key earnings drivers. While Carbon Steel's EBITDA contribution is expected to decline from 73% to 46%, the share of Stainless Steel is projected to increase from 3% to 18%, supported by a sharp ramp-up in volumes. Additionally, the newly introduced SBQ (Special Bar Quality) segment is expected to contribute 16% of EBITDA by FY31E, while CRM and Wagons further diversify the earnings base. This strategic shift towards value-added products is expected to materially improve profitability, reduce dependence on commodity steel and support a stronger, more resilient EBITDA profile over the medium term.
