PNC Infratech delivered strong revenue and profit growth in 1QFY19 and is well positioned for further growth with a large order backlog and new orders starting execution. The company also has a strong balance sheet to fund its projects.

PNC Infratech currently has Rs 66.2bn of order backlog under execution. An additional Rs 84bn of new orders will start contributing to revenue from October 2018. This will increase its quarterly revenue run-rate significantly.

In 1QFY19, PNC Infratech's net sales grew 102% to Rs 7.1bn and APAT grew 214% to Rs 772mn. The analyst maintains a 'Buy' rating and expects the company to outperform its FY19/20 revenue guidance based on the new order wins. However, the company faces risks from potential delays in land acquisitions for some projects.
