Dabur has again come up with good results for Qtr ending 30 Sept 2009. Growth momentum continues and this qtr has shown fastest growth in last 18 qtrs.
Key points as per "Investor Communication" are as follows:
Q2FY10 vs Q2FY09
TOPLINE increased by 22.4% to 855 crs.
EBITDA margin expanded by 183 bps to 21.8%
PAT increased by 29.1% to 139 crs.
Net working capital at 25 days as against 36 days.
For the past few years, company's bottom line is growing faster than top line, because of improving gross margins and operating leverage.
Seems company has a long way to go.
Market cap is approx 13K crs.(Almost doubling since bottom of last year)
STOCK LOOKS EXPENSIVE AT CMP OF 150+ BUT STILL ATTRACTIVE FOR ME.
