Tata Steel - Weak Q3; Downgrade to HOLD on European Woes

Trung Nguyen

Tata Steel has reported significantly weaker than expected Q3/22-23 results. This was driven by a material loss in the European business. Meanwhile, the Indian operations remained reasonable. The consolidated financial risk profile deteriorated significantly, albeit Net Debt/EBITDA remained within the company’s long-term target. Liquidity is adequate. The next few quarters are likely to be weaker for Tata Steel in Europe, as markets remain subdued. Steel prices are projected to weaken in Q4/22-23, with the drop likely to be steeper than the decline in coking coal and iron ore prices.
