ACC's Ebitda +3,253.4% YoY/ -28.7% QoQ to Rs 5.5 billion. Adjusted profit after tax sharply increased YoY to Rs 3.9 billion versus net loss of Rs 711 million YoY led by better operating performance coupled with higher other income.

We maintain Ebitda estimates for FY24E/ FY25E and introduce FY26E. As we roll over to FY26 coupled with improvement in profitability, we upgrade from 'Accumulate' to 'Buy' with a revised target profit of Rs 2,457 based on 11 times (~35% discount to 5/ 10 year average) consolidated FY26E enterprise value/Ebitda.
