You need to specify the principal name (kinit -k sapldap/ads.company.com).

In the second command, because you're using the -k option, the default
principal name is is host/localhostname at defaultrealm, where
localhostname is the canonicalized local hostname.

In the first command, because you're not using -k, the default principal
name is taken from the existing credential cache if you have one (which
I'm guessing you do), or from your local system if you do not.
