Angel Broking recommends NMDC

Angel Broking is bullish on NMDC and has recommended accumulate rating on the stock with a target of Rs 187 in its May 28, 2012 research report.

“Over the past five years, NMDC has traded at an average EV/EBITDA of 13.7x, compared to its current valuation of 3.8x FY2014E EV/EBITDA. Strong balance sheet, presence in sellers market (iron ore), low cost of production, high-grade mines, long mine life and compelling valuations make NMDC an attractive bet at these levels.
