HUL marginally down ahead of Q4 earnings

Written By Unknown on Senin, 29 April 2013 | 15.45

FMCG major Hindustan Unilever (HUL) shares were slightly down ahead of its fourth quarter earnings.

Analysts on an average expects HUL's standalone profit after tax to go up by 10.8 percent year-on-year to Rs 761 crore in January-March quarter, according to CNBC-TV18 poll.

Meanwhile, net sales are expected to go up by 11.6 percent Y-o-Y to Rs 6,317 crore.

According to analysts, operating profit is likely to rise 9.6 percent to Rs 914 crore, but operating profit margin is expected to be unchanged at 14.5 percent Y-o-Y.

All eyes will be on the volume growth number. Analysts expect the management to declare 4-5 percent volume growth for the quarter.

In third quarter (October-December) HUL reported a volume growth of 5 percent, which was a 3-year low. So any disappointment could take the stock lower.

Analysts believe issues related to Fair & Lovely sachet pricing transition and lower growth for modern trade (that contributes 15 percent of sales) will further weigh on volumes.

At 12:28 hours IST, the stock was quoting at Rs 463.80, down 0.29 percent on Bombay Stock Exchange.
