EBITDA increased 5.78% QoQ to Rs 1,435.5 crore from Rs 1,357.1 crore. EBITDA margin too improved by 80 basis points at 26.1% versus 25.3% during the same period, but that was lower than expectations as analysts had forecast of 27.1%.

Colgate Palmolive Q1 net up 17% at Rs 117cr


Colgate Palmolive India's first quarter net profit rose 17% year-on-year to Rs 117 crore, helped by strong growth across its toothpastes and toothbrush categories. The company said it gained market share in both the segments.

Its net sales in April-June were up 20% to Rs 736 crore, helped by a 11% volume growth.

"In an inflationary environment, the company continuing efforts and focussed programmes to enhance efficiencies and reduce costs continue to yield strong, positive results helping to maintain margin and fund investments in building and strengthening brand equity and the business. Prudent price increases and cost management has enabled the comany to maintain its strong gross margin for this quarter," it said on Monday.



Colgate strengthened its leadership position in toothpastes with a volume market share of 54.5% in Jan-June period, up from 52.4% in the same period a year ago. Its market share in toothbrushes also grew to 38.2% from 36.3%.


The company has recently acquired land on long-term lease to set up a toothbrush manufacturing facility in Andhra Pradesh.



"Colgate's high gross margins (61% in FY12) give it sufficient firepower in case there is a disruptive competitor in the oral care category," said Nitin Mathur of Espirito Santo Securities.

Colgate's total shareholder returns have outperformed the broader FMCG market in the last five years, despite the overhang of Procter & Gamble's entry in the toothpaste market, he said, maintaining a "buy" on the stock.

Colgate Palmolive shares were up 0.2% at Rs 1,167 on NSE in afternoon trade.

L&T Q1 beats estimates; net up 16% but EBITDA down


Engineering and construction major Larsen & Toubro 's (L&T) net profit grew higher than expected by 16%, at Rs 864 crore on the back of a healthy orderbook and good progress in execution of various projects. The company's sales also grew 26% to Rs 11,955 crore.


Revenues too rose better than expected by 26.07% YoY to Rs 11,955 crore in the first quarter of FY13. Analysts on an average had expected net profit at Rs 827 crore and revenues at Rs 10,951 crore during the same period.


However, company disappointed the street by its EBITDA margin that came in at 9.1%, a drop of 280 basis points YoY. Analysts had forecast it at 11.5% for the quarter.


Other income of the company jumped 124.7% to Rs 606 crore from Rs 269.7 crore year-on-year.


The company said its order inflow stood at Rs 19,594 crore, which is a growth of 21% (YoY). The order inflow and sales estimates are marginally above the revenue and order inflow guidance given by the company at the close of the preceding financial year. Analysts were expecting L&T to report order inflows of around Rs 18,500 crore - Rs 19,000 crore.


On its business outlook, the company said delayed policy measures, slowdown in industrial production, elevated interest rates and liquidity concerns have moderated the growth prospects in the domestic economy. This together with the uncertainties in the global market has impacted the investment sentiment, thereby restricting the business opportunities for the capital goods industry.


On the international front, select markets in the middle-east, south-east Asia and CIS countries hold promising prospects and the company is strengthening its position there. 


The stock trimmed losses from 1.6% to 1.18% after good net profit and revenues, but lower than expected EBITDA margin immediately pulled the stock down by 2.60%. It was trading at Rs 1,354.65 at 13:41 hours IST.
