Concor reported Q4FY21 numbers which were below I-direct estimates on profitability front. Concor reported contraction in margins (down 2050 bps) to 9.7%, led by higher payment of LLF charges (6% on the value of land) by Concor (paid annualised ~Rs. 870 crore) versus its own internal estimates (Rs. 450-480 crore).

- EBITDA margins contracted 2050 bps YoY to 9.7% and came below I-direct estimate of 22.7% mainly due to higher payment of LLF charges by Concor. Employee expense was inflated higher by higher actuarial valuation led expected liability of employees. Subsequently, absolute EBITDA declined 60% to Rs. 189 crore and came below I-direct estimate of Rs. 435 crore

- PAT de-grew 96% YoY to Rs. 16 crore ( I-direct estimate: Rs. 278 crore), as weak operational performance was further impacted by an exceptional expense of Rs. 83 crore (nature of expense is yet to be ascertained on conference call)
