Novelis posted an 18% year-on-year decrease in net income, amounting to $128 million for Q2 of FY 2024-25.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The decline stemmed from a $61 million expense linked to production disruptions at the Sierre plant, as well as increased restructuring and impairment costs, and lower operating performance, according to Novelis\u2019 statement on November 6.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite these challenges, Novelis saw a 4.5% increase in net sales, reaching $4.29 billion, compared to $4.1 billion in the same period last year. However, adjusted EBITDA, impacted by higher aluminum scrap costs, a less favorable product mix, and flood-related setbacks at Sierre, declined to $462 million, with EBITDA per tonne at $489.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At 9:20 am, Hindalco shares on the NSE were trading at Rs 663.75, down by 6.3% as investors reacted to Novelis\u2019 cautious outlook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Following the report, domestic brokerage Emkay Global downgraded Hindalco to \u2018sell\u2019 from \u2018reduce,\u2019 citing uncertainty surrounding the EBITDA\/t growth trajectory. Emkay highlighted concerns over widening scrap spreads, attributed to China\u2019s liberalized scrap import policy, which could weigh on the stock in the short term. Emkay set a price target of Rs 600 per share, projecting a potential downside of 15% from the previous closing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the past year, Hindalco shares have outperformed, rising around 37% compared to a 26% gain in the Nifty 50 index.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Do you have a news tip for Lakshmishree reporters?
