Sembcorp Industries could earn $29m annually from TPCIL

The Indian coal-based power plant delivered $6.5m profits in 3Q.

Sembcorp Industries' India earnings were up strongly at S$18.2m in 3Q16. This was compared with a loss in 3Q15.

Indian coal-based power plant Thermal Powertech Corporation India Limited (TPCIL) recorded 3Q16 earnings of S$6.5m, despite a 16-day shutdown of Unit #2 at TPCIL and weak spot market prices.

UOBKayHian notes that TPCIL's S$6.5m earnings in 3Q16 reflect 2.5 months of operations (Unit #2 was down for 16 days or ~0.5 months in Sep), roughly working out to S$2.4m profit per month.

The figures, it said, imply that TPCIL can earn S$29m annually assuming 85% plant load factor (PLF) in a bear-case scenario.

"This alone represents 56% of SG's FY15 Energy earnings. We estimate that every Rp1 increase in electricity price can generate S$16m in additional profit from this level," it said.

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
