Fiat India Automobiles Private Limited: Ratings Reaffirmed; Outlook Revised to Negative August 23, 2019 Fiat India Automobiles Private Limited: Ratings reaffirmed; Outlook revised to negative Summary of rated instruments Previous Rated Amount Current Rated Amount Instrument* Rating Action (Rs. crore) (Rs. crore) Commercial Paper 625.0 625.0 [ICRA]A1+ Reaffirmed Fund-based – Cash Credit 500.0 625.0 [ICRA]AA- Reaffirmed; Outlook revised to Negative from Stable Fund-based – Term Loan 1,490.0 1,365.0 [ICRA]AA- Reaffirmed; Outlook revised to Negative from Stable [ICRA]AA- Reaffirmed; Outlook Non Fund-Based 10.0 10.0 revised to Negative from Stable [ICRA]A1+ Reaffirmed Total 2,625.0 2,625.0 *Instrument details are provided in Annexure-1 Rationale The long-term outlook revision primarily reflects moderation in credit profile of Tata Motors Limited1 (TML, rated [ICRA]AA- (Negative) and [ICRA]A1+), which is the key counterparty as well as the promoter entity for Fiat India Automobiles Private Limited (FIAPL). ICRA notes the firm’s strategic importance for the promoter group (as sole manufacturer of JEEP and Fiat branded vehicles in India as well as Nexon compact utility vehicle for TML) and assured profits under take-or-pay agreement. FIAPL is a 50:50 JV between TML and FCA Italy SpA (FCA)2 and it is a manufacturer of vehicles and engine for its shareholders. As per the take-or-pay (ToP) agreement, FIAPL’s fixed cost as well as agreed fixed returns are ensured by its principal customers and shareholders, which mitigates demand related risks to a large extent. Thanks to the take-or- pay arrangement, even in case of minimal capacity utilisation, FIAPL is expected to report EBITDA3 of more than Rs. 850 crore, which provides stability to overall cash flows. Consequently, the credit profile of the counterparties in the ToP arrangement remain a key sensitivity for FIAPL’s credit profile. Over the next three year, FIAPL will is expected to invest Rs. 1,500 crore; out of which, about Rs 800 crore will be invested in FY2020 itself. These capex excludes investment towards assembly line for new models by shareholders, as financing plans for the same are not yet finalised. To fund its ongoing capex program, FIAPL will avail additional long- term loans of Rs 500 crore in FY2020, which is likely to moderate leverage as well as coverage indicators over the medium term. Nevertheless, ICRA expects coverage indicators like TD/OPBIDTA and gearing to remain below 2.50x and 0.7x, respectively, over the next three years. 1 ICRA has revised long term rating of TML to [ICRA]AA- (Negative) from [ICRA]AA (Negative) as per its release dated August 05, 2019 2 A step-down subsidiary of Fiat Chrysler Automotive N.V. (FCA NV, rated Ba1 (Stable) by Moody’s) 3 Earning before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization 1 The rating strengths are partially offset by the weak position of FIAPL’s principal customers in the Indian passenger vehicle (PV) market and sub-par coverage and return indicators as compared to ‘ICRA AA’ category medians. Moreover, stretched subsidy receivables from the Government of Maharashtra (GoM) has resulted in reliance on external debt to finance incremental working capital requirements. FIAPL is eligible for subsidy from the GoM under the Industrial Promotion Scheme (IPS), wherein it is eligible to recover 150% of its investment in the form of SGST refund. While the subsidy provides support to overall cash flows and profitability, payments from Government authorities are generally delayed by 18-24 months, resulting in substantial build-up of receivable and stretched working capital cycle in the interim. Consequently, the company’s dependence on external borrowings to fund its working capital requirement shoots up over the aforesaid period. As of Mar-2019, FIAPL had subsidy outstanding of Rs 598 crore from GoM and management is hopeful of recovery of over Rs 150 crore by Mar-2020. Going forward, timely recovery of the subsidy remains crucial for the company’s liquidity position and for funding its incremental working capital as well as capex requirements. Outlook: Negative The credit risk profile of counterparties under the ToP arrangement will continue to remain a key sensitivity factor. FIAPL’s negative outlook reflects ICRA’s expectation that credit profile of its key counterparty under ToP arrangement i.e TML could weaken further over the near to medium term. Any revision in ToP arrangement, which could materially impacted cash flows also remain a key rating sensitivity. Key rating drivers Credit strengths Strong operational, financial and managerial support from promoter group, i.e., TML and FCA NV – FIAPL holds strategic importance for the promoter group as the sole manufacturing unit for all FIAT and JEEP branded vehicles in India as well as TML’s Nexon compact utility vehicle. Moreover, FIAPL also manufactures diesel engines for the Indian market, which provides support to its overall revenues. As per the management, FIAPL is the sole supplier of JEEP Compass for right-hand4 drive markets globally. Take-or-pay arrangement with TML and FCA US LLC protects profitability from demand-related risks – FIAPL’s take-or- pay arrangement for its manufacturing capacity allows an assured fixed return on assets, over and above its fixed cost recovery. Furthermore, overall profitability is supported by the sales tax incentive earned on the cars and engine manufactured by it. FIAPL’s earlier take-or-pay arrangement for FCA’s share of the manufacturing capacity with FCA India Automobiles Private Limited (a step-down subsidiary of FCA NV) has been replaced by FCA US LLC jointly and severely with FCA SpA Italy. FCA US LLC is one of the strongest entities in the FCA Group, globally. Credit challenges Stiff competition faced by FCA India and TML in Indian PV market – FIAPL’s primary customers, TML and FCA India, are relatively small players in the Indian passenger vehicle industry, with market share of 6.8% and 0.5%, respectively, during FY2019. Nevertheless, the success of TML Nexon and Jeep Compass has helped their respective OEMs in augmenting their market share apart from the much-needed boost of the capacity utilisation of FIAPL’s manufacturing unit. Given 4 For e.g., ASEAN, ANZ and SAARC nations, Japan and South African countries are right-hand drive markets 2 headwinds in domestic PV industry during FY2020, overall revenue could witness pressure in the near term. Nevertheless, company is expected to report EBIDTA more than Rs 800 crore in current fiscal as well. Delay in subsidy receivable from Government resulting in stretched working capital cycle - FIAPL is eligible for the IPS subsidy from the GoM, wherein it is eligible to recover 150% of its investment in the form of SGST refund. While the subsidy provides support to its overall cash flows and profitability, payments from Government authorities are generally delayed by 18-24 months, resulting in substantial build-up of receivable and stretched working capital cycle in the interim. Consequently, the company’s dependence on external borrowings to fund its working capital requirement shoots up over the aforesaid period. As of Mar-2019, FIAPL had subsidy outstanding of Rs 585 crore from GoM and management is hopeful of recovery of over Rs 150 crore by Mar-2020. Going forward, timely recovery of the same remains crucial for the company to maintain its liquidity position and fund incremental working capital as well as capex requirement. Liquidity Position: FIAPL’s liquidity profile remain strong, supported by sizeable undrawn bank lines as well as unencumbered cash of Rs 121 crore as on March 2019. Out of the sanctioned Rs 625 crore bank lines, Rs 215 crore worth of bank lines are unsecured and available for drawdown irrespective of drawing power requirement, lending support to the overall liquidity profile. With cash profits of over Rs 600 crore annually, overall liquidity profile of FIAPL is likely to remain comfortable despite sizeable capex & investments plans over the medium term.

    PRESS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ADESA Partners with Fiat Chrysler Automobiles to Pilot Next Evolution of Simulcast Sale Hosts Exclusive Livestreaming Sale from Four Locations as Part of FCA Inaugural CPOV Meeting CARMEL, Ind. – September 19, 2019 – ADESA, a business unit of global automotive remarketing and technology solutions provider KAR Auction Services Inc. (NYSE: KAR), partnered with Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) to pilot an ADESA Simulcast sale outside of the physical auction sale-day environment. As part of FCA’s inaugural national CPOV (certified preowned vehicle) dealer meeting, vehicles were launched into auction from four ADESA auction locations — ADESA Golden Gate, ADESA Indianapolis, ADESA Kansas City and ADESA Las Vegas. FCA CPO dealers attending the event were able to participate in fast, live bidding action. “We were extremely pleased to work with our strong partners at FCA to demonstrate the powerful potential of ADESA Simulcast to this sophisticated and tech savvy group of dealers,” said John Hammer, ADESA president. “ADESA Simulcast allows us to bring the auction right to our dealers — exposing sellers to a broader buyer base and helping buyers access the hard-to- find inventory they need. We were honored to pilot this with FCA and to add to the excitement and energy of their annual meeting.” Launched earlier this year, ADESA Simulcast is a cloud-based auction solution that allows dealers to participate virtually in multiple in-lane sales occurring in any location. As part of ADESA Simulcast, participating dealers can easily access detailed condition reports, photos, valuation tools and transportation options for purchased vehicles. The FCA sale was the first use of the technology to launch from multiple sites in a non-sale-day environment to a defined, exclusive group of dealers.
