FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
21. The top line grew by 28.5% YoY against our expectation of 27.6% YoY to Rs.275.05bn. While the bottom-line was below our expectation mainly due to provision of Rs.17.28bn for the impending wage revision. The PAT grew by 6.3% YoY to Rs.30.39bn as against our expectation of Rs.33.6bn. Implied Q4FY09 gross sales grew by 32.5% YoY to Rs.105.5bn. Higher provision for impending wage revision dampened the performance for Q4FY09 (P) of the company. Bottom line witness a growth of 12.4% YoY during the quarter to Rs.12.5bn FINANCIAL ANALYSIS

33. Business Outlook and Valuation BHEL has started FY10E on impressive order backlog of Rs.1170bn which is ~4.3x of FY09 revenue. The company witnessed impressive order inflows of Rs.596bn in FY09 and the management remains confident about the order inflow of Rs.500bn in FY10E. We believe the company would continue to perform well in FY10E and would maintain its market share at least for next 2-3 years. We also view BHEL initiative in nuclear power and super critical segment as key positives for future growth. We have introduced FY11E earnings and expect BHEL to report it to grow at a CAGR of 32% over a period of FY09E- 11E which is fairly reflected in the valuation. BHEL currently trades at 17x and 14x on FY10E and FY11E earnings respectively. We recommended the stock on 5th February 2009 post Q3FY09 results with a target price of Rs.1437 and we had mentioned the stock would be fairly valued at this price. The stock has already achieved our target price. Although we remain positive on the long term prospects of the company and considering the order book position we remain confident about its earnings growth as well, but as the stock trades at high multiple of 17x on FY10E we believe the stock is fairly valued at this price and thus we recommend a Reduce with same target price of Rs.1437. FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
Apart from the price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio, another parameter that is commonly used to value stocks is price-to-book value (P/BV). But what does P/BV means and how can investors use this parameter to value their investments? In this article, we will try and simplify this concept P/BV is a valuation ratio and is arrived at by dividing the market price of a share with the respective company's book value per share. Now, book value is equal to the shareholder's equity (share capital plus reserves and surplus). Book value can also be arrived at by subtracting current liabilities and debt from total assets. For the banking and finance companies, book value is calculated as 'share capital plus reserves minus miscellaneous assets not written off. P/BV is a good metric to value stocks of companies in the capital-intensive industries like engineering, automobiles and banks, which have large amount of tangible assets in their books (balance sheet). If a company is trading at a P/BV of less than 1, this indicates any or both of the two - Investors believe that the company's assets are overvalued, or The company is earning a poor return on its assets. A high P/BV indicates vice versa, i.e., markets believe the company's assets to be undervalued or that the company is earning and is expected to earn in the future a high return on its assets. Book value also has a relationship with the 'Return on Equity' of a company. In fact, book value can also be termed as equity (equity capital plus reserves and surplus). As such, for a company that earns a high return on equity, investors would be ready to give the stock a high P/BV multiple
