Business outlook & guidance for Oct – Dec FY14 While, Steel market has shown steadiness in last quarter, it remains challenging due to pressure on “spread”. However, we expect Thailand to be resilient and construction growth will help drive steel demand. Imports from China remain our single biggest concern and we expect a definite support from MoC to protect the survival of Thai longs steel industry. Continuing on its path of steady improvement over the last 6 quarters, not only has TSTH registered a PBT positive performance in Q2 FY14 and H1 FY14, it has become PAT positive after a gap of 3.5 years. The success of the “turnaround” of the underlying business operations despite tough market condition is due to a tight vigil on working capital and an integrated approach across its main functions. Company sees an optimistic phase in construction due to start of 2 Trillion Baht project and therefore expects that the improvement momentum will be maintained to register a robust performance in the balance part of the year.
TSTH Expects to maintain the turnaround momentum in Q3FY14 Focus areas for H2FY14 Maintain sales growth of 10% over last year to reflect construction growth . Continue focus on high end products. Sustain EBITDA levels of H1 FY’14 to ensure value creating steel business.
