Asian Paints Equity Research INDIA January 4, 2020 BSE Sensex: 41627 Asian Paints HOLD ICICI Securities Limited Maintained is the author and distributor of this report Profit pool leader behaving like a challenger Rs1,751 We highlight a distinctive trend in paints industry – Asian Paints - the profit pool Company update market leader (volume, value and profit share of 51%, 58% and 64%) is behaving like a challenger. This is evidenced, in our view, by (1) frequent price cuts (mostly Paints in enamels), (2) near-all-time-high trade discounts and (3) launch of ‘cheap’ emulsion (premium segment) at the price of distemper (mid segment). Historically, Target price: Rs1,800 decorative paints has been a high-entry-barrier business (top-4 players have 98% market share) and the (relative) success of newer players like Indigo Paints, Shareholding pattern Nippon Paints has potentially triggered these actions from APNT, in our view. Mar Jun Sep Importantly, we reckon APNT will be watching closely the ramp-up by the recent ‘19 ‘19 ‘19 Promoters 52.8 52.8 52.8 entrant JSW Paints. In summary, APNT’s actions potentially limit ability of other Institutional paint companies to outperform. Retain HOLD rating on Asian Paints, Akzo Nobel, investors 25.8 25.6 27.5 MFs and other 4.2 5.0 5.2 Berger and ADD on Kansai Nerolac. Banks, FI’s, Insurance co 5.0 3.9 5.0 Market leader with share of 51% volumes, 58% value & 64% EBITDA: APNT has FIIs 16.6 16.7 17.3 strengthened its market leadership in volumes, value as well as profitability over Others 21.4 21.6 19.7 Source: BSE FY2006-2019. It has reported volume CAGR of 12.5% over FY06-19 whereas industry has grown at CAGR of 11.9% over FY06-19. Its EBITDA share stood at 64% Price chart in FY19 compared to 53% in FY06. 2,000 Higher industry profit pool likely increased competitive activity over FY06-19: 1,800 1,600 While APNT has gained volumes; it has also improved its profitability over FY06-19. 1,400 Its EBITDA margin expanded to 18.2% in FY19 from 13% in FY06. We believe 1,200(Rs) higher profitability has invited more players to enter paint industry such as 1) Indigo 1,000 Paints, 2) Nippon and 3) JSW Paints. 800 600 Launch of Tractor Sparc emulsion brand to counter higher competitive pressure: We believe launch of Tractor Sparc has two objectives 1) Uptrade Jul-19 Jul-18 Jul-17 consumers from distempers (mid-segment) and arrest downtrading in emulsions (if Jan-17 Jan-19 Jan-20 Jan-18 any) and 2) Signal the competition. Tractor Sparc is a likely message to recent and prospective entrants in paint industry that APNT will protect market shares even if it costs profitability. Channel check feedback: While the success of Tractor Sparc will be known only in due course (it’s launched recently), our channel checks suggest muted product acceptance currently. Retain HOLD on APNT: We maintain our estimates and model sales, EBITDA and earnings CAGR of 14.8%, 17.5% and 22.5% respectively, for FY19-FY22E. Retain HOLD with a DCF-based target price of Rs1,800 valuing the stock at 47x Sept’ 21E.

Its market share (value) has steadily expanded from 51% in FY06 to 58% in FY19. We believe the steady growth in market shares is attributable to 1) distribution expansion and focus on tinting machines, 2) steady launches across price points and 3) investments in brand building.

The steady increase in EBITDA margin (ahead of peers) is attributable to 1) higher scale of operations and 2) premiumisation.

We note the launch is expected to result in 1) Facilitate up-trading for consumers using distempers, 2) Arrest down-trading (if any) with slowdown in economy and 3) to give a message to the competition that Asian Paints is keen on volume growth and protecting its market shares. Chart 4: Tractor Sparc Economy emulsion Source: Company, I-Sec research Realizations across variants: The prices of distempers are c.Rs60/Ltr whereas the prices of emulsions are above Rs100/Ltr. Asian Paints had a gap in its portfolio at price point of Rs70-80/Ltr. With launch of Tractor Sparc, the company has bridged the gap in the portfolio.

We believe regional players like Kamdhenu paints are also aggressive and are gaining market shares. There is also competitive pressure in putty segment with cement companies raising promotions/discounts to gain market shares. Table 1: Increase in competitive pressure New players Regions JSW paints Tamil Nadu Indigo paints South India Nippon South India Kamdhenu Paints North India Source: Company, I-Sec research Channel checks feedback: We spoke to multiple dealers across India to understand success of Tractor Sparc. The channel partners indicate the product has muted acceptance due to: There are no additional commissions and discounts, There is no scheme to support the brand, There is negligible media support to create ‘pull’ from the consumers. Also the dealer’s effective commission reduces by selling product with lower retail price. 4 Asian Paints, January 4, 2020 ICICI Securities Valuations We maintain our estimates and model sales, EBITDA and earnings CAGR of 14.8%, 17.5% and 22.5% respectively, for FY19-FY22E.

Input cost increases led by high crude prices and a weak INR could put pressure on the margins in the short term due to lag in price action.
