ADD NTPC (NTPC)

Utilities JANUARY 22, 2013 RESULT Coverage view: Attractive

Limited adjustment for a change. NTPC’s adjusted profits of Rs25.5 bn yield a Price (Rs): 162 reasonable 10% yoy growth in earnings, aided primarily by 7% yoy growth in Target price (Rs): 180 generation on an expanded capacity base. Absence of significant non-recurring BSE-30: 20,102 adjustments (Rs0.4 bn in 3QFY13) was a marked difference from past results. Improved pace of capacity addition (3 GW up to 3QFY13) and a resilient business model increase visibility of the curtailed XIIth plan targets. Maintain ADD rating and TP of Rs180/share.

Company data and valuation summary NTPC Stock data Forecasts/Valuations 2013 2014E 2015E 52-week range (Rs) (high,low)191-137 EPS (Rs) 13.3 13.9 14.7 Market Cap.

Yield (%) 2.5 2.6 2.7

Steady operational performance, adjusted PAT grows 10% yoy

NTPC reported revenues of Rs157.7 bn (3% yoy, -2% qoq), operating profit of Rs40 bn (23% yoy, -5% qoq) and net income of Rs26 bn (7% yoy, -17% qoq) against our estimate of Rs168.7 bn, Rs38 bn and Rs26 bn respectively. Accounting for limited prior-period adjustments of Rs0.4 bn during this quarter (Rs13.3 bn in 2QFY13), adjusted sales and net profits were Rs157.3 bn and Rs25.5 bn respectively. Revenue miss was primarily on account of lower fuel costs (-8% qoq), typical of the cost-plus scenario, even as generation continued to improve (7% yoy, 12% qoq).

Highest-ever capacity addition achieved so far in 2013, improving PLFs may allay concerns

NTPC has so far commissioned a total of 3,160 MW coal based capacities—2,160 MW at the standalone level and 1,000 MW under JVs/subsidiaries. NTPC looks reasonably on target to add another 3 GW in FY2014E as well, maintaining the improved pace of capacity addition.

We note that NTPC reported improved utilization (PLFs) for its coal-based capacities—84.1% in 3QFY13 compared to 80.6% in 1HFY12, partially allaying concerns on the drop in utilization rates. We further highlight that under the availability-based tariff structure (implemented post-FY2009), the incentive structure is less aligned to actual generation as was the case prior to FY2009.

We retain our ADD rating with a TP of Rs180/share

We retain our ADD rating on NTPC as newly commercialized capacities of ~3.2 GW improve visibility for continued earnings growth. NTPC is currently trading at 1.5X FY2014E book value and 12X FY2014E EPS—at the lower end of its historical band (see Exhibits 5 and 6). We note that the recent underperformance primarily reflects uncertainty around the pricing of the potential follow- on offering and offers over 10% upside to our fair value estimate of Rs180/share.

We have revised our FY2013E (+4.6%) estimate to Rs13.3/share accounting for aggressive commercialization of capacities and improved generation, while our earnings for FY2014E (+1.9%) remain largely unchanged.

3QFY13 results—financial and operational highlights

` Reported sales of Rs157.7 bn had minimal adjustments of (1) Rs0.3 bn (Rs10.2 bn in 2QFY13) from prior-period revenues, and (2) Rs0.1 bn (Rs2.9 bn in 2QFY13) of income tax recoverable from consumers.

` With the commissioning of Vallur Unit 2 (500 MW) and Jhajjar Unit 3 (500 MW) in 3QFY13, NTPC (including JVs and subsidiaries) has commissioned new capacities of 3,160 MW and commercialized new capacities of 3,820 MW so far in FY2013.

` Gross generation (standalone) for 3QFY13 was 60 BU (7% yoy, 12% qoq) based on data reported by CEA. Higher generation reflects the improved pace of capacity addition coupled with better PLFs during the quarter.

` Average PLFs for coal based capacities for NTPC improved sequentially to 84.1% during 3QFY13 (74.9% in 2QFY13, 83.6% in 2QFY12).

Banks/Financial Institutions JANUARY 22, 2013 RESULT Coverage view: Cautious

Earnings in line; operating trends will be key monitorable. HDFC reported 16% Price (Rs): 813 yoy earnings growth, 3% ahead of estimates. Loan growth remained strong at 21% as Target price (Rs): 730 retail loans accelerated to 24% yoy. However, disbursements declined by 12% yoy BSE-30: 20,102 (likely due to lower non-retail loans), raising concerns on incremental business traction. We will continue to track this trend carefully before revisiting our medium-term NII estimates. Valuations remain rich at 4.4X PBR FY2014E; retain SELL with target price of Rs730 (from Rs690).

Yield (%) 1.4 1.7 2.0 • Reported spreads stable at 2.27% Operating income on track, tweak estimates; retain SELL

HDFC reported PAT of Rs11.5 bn, up 16% yoy and 3% ahead of estimates. Loan growth remained stable at 21% yoy thereby driving 18% growth in net operational income. NIM (KS-calculated) expanded by 30 bps qoq to 3.7% even as reported spreads were stable at 2.27%.

We are tweaking our estimates to factor lower fee income and higher dividend income; we currently retain our estimates for loan growth and NIM. We will closely track the trend in disbursements and explore the reasons for divergence between high loan growth (up 21% yoy) and disbursements (down 12% yoy). We raise our SOTP-based target price to Rs730 (from Rs690) to factor the rollover and higher target price of HDFC Bank in the SOTP-based valuation.

Operating trends confusing; incremental trends are key monitorable

` Non-retail loan book was sluggish during the quarter. HDFC delivered retail loan growth of 24% yoy, a two-year high. The company went slow on non-retail loans during the quarter; loan book in this segment was stable qoq thereby pulling down the overall loan growth to 21%. Increase in competition (likely from private and foreign banks) has prompted HDFC to go slow during the quarter. According to our real estate analyst, real estate developers are making concerted efforts to improve their balance sheet even as select companies remain under stress; thus, incremental trends on this front are not negative. Management has highlighted that they will resume growth in this segment from 4QFY13E; we will continue to track this trend.

` Overall disbursements decline 12% yoy. HDFC reported sharp 12% decline in disbursements even as loan growth was strong at 21% yoy. Notably, HDFC does not provide the quarterly break-up of disbursements between retail and non-retail loans and hence it is challenging to further analyze this trend. Sluggishness in non-retail lending can be one of the reasons for lower disbursements growth during the quarter. In the past, HDFC has highlighted that they are focused on medium to long-term project loans (and are not into short-term loans); as such, the trend in disbursements should be less volatile.

Other highlights of the results: Lower fees during 3Q, capital gains stable

While capital gains and dividend income was stable yoy and in line with estimates, fee income was down 25% qoq. Two key reasons—(1) non-retail business was subdued during the quarter (discussed above) and (2) share of loans sourced by third-party DSAs increased to 89% from about 70% in the past; hence the net fee income declined during the period.

Energy JANUARY 22, 2013 RESULT Coverage view: Attractive

In-line results; slower ramp-up in future. Cairn India’s net income (adjusted) at Price (Rs): 340 `31.6 bn was in line with our estimate of `31.3 bn; reported net income at `33.4 bn Target price (Rs): 370 was boosted by prior-period adjustment of `1.9 bn. The company has cut production BSE-30: 20,102 guidance to 200-215 kb/d by end-FY2014 due to lower production from Bhagyam field. We retain our ADD rating and DCF-based target price of `370 but see downside risks from lower-than-assumed recoverable reserves from Rajasthan block.

The company accounted foreign exchange fluctuation gain of `2.4 price in perpetuity bn in 3QFY13 versus foreign exchange fluctuation loss of `7.9 bn 2QFY13. Cairn’s net income increased 44% qoq to `33.4 bn in 3QFY13. The effective tax rate was surprisingly low at 1%.

Production from Rajasthan declined to 166 kb/d in December 2012; remains below the guidance

We are surprised by sharp decline in crude oil production from Rajasthan block to 166 kb/d in December 2012, 5.1% lower than the company’s guidance of 175 kb/d; the company had produced 173 kb/d in October and 171 kb/d in November. The management has attributed lower production to higher downtime of facilities and lower production from Bhagyam field. We remain watchful on potential disappointment in crude production in the near term. Lower production guidance of 200-215 kb/d by end-FY2014

The management has now guided to slower ramp-up in production from Rajasthan block to 200- 215 kb/d by end-FY2014 versus their earlier guidance of 210-240 kb/d by end-CY2013 noting lower-than-expected production from Bhagyam field, which may require drilling of more wells to achieve target peak production of 40 kb/d. The company expects to commence oil production from Aishwariya field by end-FY2013 and ramp up production from Bhagyam field in 2HFY14. The implementation of EOR through full field application of polymer flood in Mangala field is expected to begin in FY2015, subject to Government approvals.

Revise earnings

We compute our 12-month DCF-based fair value of `370 for Cairn India assuming (1) gross recoverable reserves at 1.55 bn bbls from the Rajasthan block, (2) crude price of US$90/bbl from FY2017E in perpetuity with an inflation of 2% and (3) long-term exchange rate of `52/US$. We have revised our FY2013-15E EPS to `63.9 (+4.2%), `56.1 (+0.1%) and `48.7 (-1.3%) to reflect (1) lower oil production, (2) lower effective tax rate and (3) other minor changes.

` Qoq decline in revenues. Cairn India reported 3QFY13 consolidated net revenues at `42.8 bn (-4% qoq and +38% yoy). The qoq decline in revenues reflects (1) lower crude oil production from Rajasthan block at 170 kb/d (-1% qoq) and (2) lower crude price realization at US$96.2/bbl for the company versus US$98.1/bbl in 2QFY13. Crude realization for Rajasthan block declined to US$95.6/bbl (13.3% discount to Dated Brent crude price) versus US$97.6/bbl in 2QFY13. Gas price realization was at US$4.5/mcf versus US$4.6/mcf in 2QFY13.

` Lower oil production from Rajasthan block. Cairn’s share of production from Rajasthan block was 118,984 b/d (working interest-basis) in 3QFY13 versus 120,261 b/d in 2QFY13. We note that gross oil production from Rajasthan block at 170 kb/d was lower than company’s guidance of 175 kb/d led by maintenance shutdowns and lower oil production from Bhagyam field. The company has indicated a routine downtime of 3-5% for the facilities and processing infrastructure on an ongoing basis.

` Production continues to decline sharply from other fields. At CB-OS-2, oil production declined 4% yoy and gas production declined 32% yoy. At Ravva, oil production declined by 18% yoy and gas production declined by 36% yoy. Exhibit 2 shows Cairn’s reported production from various fields in 3QFY13.

` Increase in other income. Cairn’s other income increased to `4.2 bn from `2.2 bn in 2QFY13. The company reported foreign exchange fluctuation gain of `2.4 bn in 3QFY13 (included in other income) versus foreign exchange fluctuation loss of `7.9 bn 2QFY13 (included in other expenditure).

` Higher DD&A charges. Cairn reported increase in DD&A expense to `4.8 bn (+7% qoq and +27% yoy). The company reported exploration cost of `277 mn versus `262 mn in 2QFY13.

` Finance charge. Cairn India reported finance cost at `52 mn in 3QFY13 versus `188 mn in 2QFY13 and `240 mn in 3QFY12.

` Prior-period adjustment. Cairn has accounted a prior-period adjustment of `1.9 bn related to differences in tax rates from recently approved Scheme of Arrangement.

` Taxation. The effective tax rate for the company was low at 1% in 3QFY13 due to MAT credit for `5.4 bn. The company booked a deferred tax asset of `213 mn in 3QFY13 versus `662 mn in 2QFY13 and `61 mn in 3QFY12.

Operational update

` Mangala field. The company is planning to maintain the oil production at current levels by drilling additional development wells and implementation of chemical EOR techniques. The management indicated that the full field implementation of the EOR technique is expected to take place in FY2015 subject to necessary Government approvals.

` Bhagyam field. The management expects to ramp up oil production from Bhagyam field to 40 kb/d by 2HFY14 by drilling additional wells. The company has attributed lower- than-anticipated oil production from Bhagyam field to the complex crude characteristics and shallow nature of the reservoir.

` Aishwariya field. Cairn India has indicated commencement of crude oil production from Aishwariya field by end-FY2013.

` Ravva and CB-OS-2 blocks. At Ravva, the company is planning (1) an infill drilling campaign of 3 wells to tap by-passes oil and (2) an exploratory well for a high-value high- risk deep prospect during FY2014. At CB-OS-2, the company has successfully completed first well of the ongoing infill drilling campaign comprising 2 wells and 1 workover well.

` KG-ONN-2003/1. The JV is planning to commence the appraisal program for two wells by 1QFY14.

KOTAK INSTITUTIONAL EQUITIES RESEARCH 17 Energy Cairn India

` Sri Lanka. The company has brought forward the exploration drilling program in SL 2007-01-001 block to February 2013 from mid-CY2013 due to early availability of a rig.

` South Africa. Cairn India has got regulatory approval to acquire 60% interest and operatorship rights in Block-1 in Orange basin in South Africa.

Earnings revision and key assumptions

We have revised our FY2013E, FY2014E and FY2015E EPS to `63.9, `56.1 and `48.7 from `61.4, `56 and `49.4 to reflect (1) lower oil production, (2) lower effective tax rate and (3) other minor changes. Exhibit 3 gives our key assumptions behind earnings estimates for Cairn India.

` Recoverable reserves. We assume gross production of 1.46 bn bbls (1.02 bn bbls net to Cairn) over the remaining life of the field, which is higher versus management’s guidance of gross 2P +2C resources (including EOR and Barmer Hill formation) of 1.12 bn bbls for the block as of March 31, 2012. Exhibit 4 gives details of Cairn’s resource base and reserves including contingent resources.

` Volumes. We model gross oil production from the Rajasthan block at 8.5 mn tons (170 kb/d) for FY2013E, 9.5 mn tons (189 kb/d) for FY2014E and 11.3 mn tons (225 kb/d) for FY2015E. We see downside risks to our estimates for FY2014-15E, which are contingent on (1) ramp-up in production from Bhagyam field and (2) timely commencement of production from Aishwariya field.

` Crude oil price assumption. We assume crude oil prices for FY2013E, FY2014E and FY2015E at US$110/bbl, US$105/bbl and US$100/bbl. We model FY2016E and FY2017E crude prices at US$95/bbl and US$90/bbl. We have assumed an increase in crude prices by 2% in perpetuity beyond FY2017E. We model US$10/bbl discount to Dated Brent crude price for Cairn’s Rajasthan crude in the long term.

` Exchange rate. We have assumed exchange rate for FY2013E, FY2014E and FY2015E at `54.5/US$, `54/US$ and `53/US$. We model long-term exchange rate from FY2016E onwards at `52/US$.

SELL Asian Paints (APNT)

Consumer products JANUARY 22, 2013 RESULT Coverage view: Cautious

Festive season cheer; we continue to find valuations expensive. APNT reported a Price (Rs): 4,288 strong quarter with 20% domestic sales growth and 43 bps EBITDA margin expansion. Target price (Rs): 3,550 3QFY13 likely benefited from the late onset of festive season this year versus FY2012 BSE-30: 20,102 when the festive season stock build-up likely started in the Sep 2012 quarter. Titanium dioxide price has started correcting but for any meaningful impact on margins, it will have to be coupled with INR appreciation. We remain positive on the long-term prospects of APNT but find the stock expensive at 30.3X FY2014E EPS. SELL.

Yield (%) 1.1 1.4 1.7

Late onset of festive season aids a strong 3QFY13

Asian Paints reported consolidated sales of Rs30.4 bn (+19%, KIE est. Rs30 bn), EBITDA of Rs4.9 bn (+24%, KIE est. Rs4.9 bn) and PAT of Rs3.5 bn (+31%, KIE est. Rs3.3 bn). Net income beat was driven by higher-than-expected other income.

At a standalone level, domestic sales growth was 20% with likely pricing growth of ~7.5% and the balance being volume growth and mix improvement (volume growth was around 11%, in our view). 3QFY13 likely benefited from the late onset of festive season this year versus FY2012 when the festive season stock build-up (at the dealer level) likely started in the Sep 2012 quarter.

Domestic gross margin improved by 86 bps yoy. Titanium dioxide price has come off from the peak levels and if the trend sustains (coupled with INR appreciation), margin expansion momentum will likely continue. EBITDA margin expansion was limited to 43 bps yoy as other expenditure increased by 52 bps yoy likely due to higher adspends as the company revamped its brand and marketing communication.

Factors to watch out for—sales growth trajectory, trend in margins and mix improvement

Even as we remain positive on the medium-term prospects for the paints sector and APNT, rich valuations (at 30.3X FY2014E EPS) prevent us from being constructive on the stock. From a business perspective, we would closely watch for:

` Volume growth trajectory. Volume growth has weakened recently on account of steep price hikes, slowdown in discretionary spending and rising competitive intensity. APNT’s volume growth has decelerated to ~6% for 9MFY13 versus 11% in FY2012 and a CAGR of 16% over

FY2006-11. ` Margin trend. Titanium dioxide price correction needs to be coupled with INR appreciation for the margin momentum to sustain.

` Mix improvement. Over the past few years, the company’s revenue growth and margin profile has benefited from mix improvement in favor of emulsions. Emulsions now account for ~45% of sales, making further upside from this aspect increasingly challenging.

For private Circulation Only. FOR IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT KOTAK SECURITIES’ RATING SYSTEM AND OTHER DISCLOSURES, REFER TO THE END OF THIS MATERIAL.

Consumer products Asian Paints

` Competitive intensity. The competitive landscape of the paint industry is changing with Akzo Nobel, Berger Paints, Kansai Nerolac and newer players such as Nippon, Sherwin Williams, Jotun, etc. eyeing for a larger share of the market. These players have been expanding their distribution reach, pursuing aggressive celebrity advertising and launching innovative basket of products. APNT has done well to thwart competitive pressure thus far; however, competitive action in the market bears a close watch.

Solid franchise, good medium-term story but expensive valuations; we remain sellers

We like the underlying medium-term volume growth drivers of the Indian paints industry— (1) gradual shift from painting being a discretionary spend to a non-discretionary one—we do expect the pace of shift to be gradual and cyclical, (2) increasing frequency of repainting, and (3) uptrading potential—we have seen a shift in favor of emulsions in the past few years; this trend will likely continue (albeit at a slower pace now that the base is higher) with sustained innovation in the high-end emulsions space (temperature control, low VOC, etc.). We also believe that APNT’s strong franchise positions it well to benefit from these growth drivers, expected increase in competitive intensity notwithstanding.

However, the stock’s valuations at 30.3X FY2013E (at a premium to our sector coverage universe) more than capture the fundamental positives, in our view. Valuations leave little room for (1) potential slowdown in discretionary spending, (2) execution slippage, and (3) reversal in titanium dioxide prices or other RM cost inflation. We also note that APNT’s return ratios (~40% ROE) are middle of the pack in the sector. Justifying higher-than-sector- average valuation multiples is hence challenging unless one has strong conviction on sustained stronger-than-sector growth rates with similar, if not lower, earnings volatility. We do not share this view and hence value APNT at 25X FY2014E EPS (versus 30X for ITC and HUL); we retain SELL with a revised target price of Rs3,550/share (Rs3,300 earlier).

Please note that we have moved to a consolidated earnings model for the company.

SELL Shree Cement (SRCM)

Cement JANUARY 22, 2013 RESULT Coverage view: Cautious

Realizations on shaky ground, power contribution improves. Shree Cement’s Price (Rs): 4,479 results were in line with estimates. Lower cement realizations (-5% qoq) and power Target price (Rs): 3,427 tariffs (-10% qoq) were offset by higher external sales of power. At 13.8X EV/EBITDA BSE-30: 20,102 (2012 EBITDA), SRCM is the most expensive among cement stocks we cover and at it trades at a ~5% premium to pan-India players. Aggressive capacity additions notwithstanding, regional concentration and upward trending pet-coke prices make SRCM’s earnings significantly vulnerable. Maintain SELL with a revised target price of Rs3,427.

Fragile performance by the cement business but power saves the day

SRCM reported revenues of Rs14.3 bn (13% yoy, 8% qoq), operating profit of Rs3.7 bn (12% yoy, -5% qoq) and net income of Rs2.2 bn (267% yoy, -5% qoq) against our estimate of Rs14 bn, Rs3.9 bn and Rs2 bn respectively. While the revenue beat was mainly due to higher external sale of power (786 MU against 307 MU during the preceding quarter), a sharp sequential decline in cement realizations (Rs3,723/ton against estimated Rs4,029/ton) led to a 3% EBITDA miss; but a lower effective tax rate (14% against 25% factored by us) allowed net income beat of 15%.

Both cement realizations and volumes decline; power volumes surge with over 90% PLFs

The cement business’ performance was fragile, registering a drop in realizations and volumes. The decline in realizations to Rs3,723/ton (-2% yoy, -5% qoq) was in line with the drop in prices in North India during the quarter and similar to industry leader Ultratech. A sharp sequential jump in freight costs (9% qoq) and other costs (17% qoq) led to erosion of profit margins in the cement segment, which reported EBIT margin of 16% (-304 bps yoy, -376 bps qoq).

However, the power business delivered a stellar performance with external sales almost tripling to 786 MUs, though realizations came off sequentially by ~10% and compensated for the underperformance in the cement business.

We maintain our SELL rating with a revised target price of Rs3,427

We maintain our SELL rating on SRCM with a revised target price of Rs3,427 (previously Rs3,340) factoring higher earnings from the power business. We have revised EBITDA estimates for FY2013 and FY2014 by ~3% and ~2% respectively to account for improved utilization in the power business. Our SOTP-base valuation comprises Rs3,300/share for cement business (valued at 7X12- month forward EBITDA) and Rs127/share for the power business. We continue to value the power business at lower-than-replacement cost due to low leverage and continued risk to earnings (from merchant tariffs and fuel prices).

External sale of power improves dramatically but realizations are lower

SRCM sold 786 MUs (207% yoy, 156% qoq) at an estimated realization of Rs4.0/kWh in the quarter ending December 2012. This quantum of power sales implies a PLF of ~91% (on an installed capacity of 560 MW). SRCM reporting a healthy 22% EBIT margin for the power business (-37% in the quarter ended December 2011). However, the absence of a long-term arrangement for (1) sale of power and (2) procurement of coal makes SRCM’s power portfolio vulnerable to adverse cost-price movements.

Cement: Realizations under pressure, operations at near-capacity

We discuss the operational performance of the cement business below:

` SRCM’s average realization declined to Rs3,723/ton (-2% yoy, -5% qoq). Our channel checks had earlier indicated a sequential drop in retail cement prices in North India (SRCM’s key market) due to (1) the early onset of severe winter conditions, (2) migration of labor owing to the onset of the Rabi season and (3) shortage of raw materials such as bricks and sand from enforcement of a ban on illegal mining in a few states.

` SRCM posted robust 5% yoy volume growth in the quarter ended in December 2012 registering an overall 17% yoy growth for the nine months between March and December 2012. In this context, SRCM has significantly outperformed its larger peers, most of whose guidance indicates a muted demand outlook for the cement industry in FY2013. We however note that SRCM’s volumes declined 1% sequentially during the quarter, despite the end of the monsoon season.

` SRCM’s freight costs increased to Rs762/ton (9% qoq, -18% yoy), reflecting better absorption of freight hikes undertaken by the railways earlier in February 2012.

Capacity ramp-up moderated, reversal of working capital cycle in 1HFY13

` SRCM’s incurred a capex of Rs3 bn in 1HFY13 due to the setting up two new clinker lines aggregating a capacity of 3.2 mtpa at Ras, Rajasthan (total planned capex: Rs9 bn). SRCM aims to have an integrated cement capacity of ~19 MTPA by FY2015E and 22 MTPA by FY2017E including a grinding unit in Bihar and an integrated unit in .

` SRCM reported a significant spike in debtors to Rs3.5 bn as on December 31, 2012 (Rs 1.8 bn as on June 30, 2012), equivalent to 12 months’ annualized sales for the quarter ended December 31, 2012 (six months of sales for the quarter ended June 2012).

` Total inventory also shot up from Rs5 bn as on June 30, 2012 to Rs7 bn as on December 31, 2012.

` Net current assets (ex-cash) were Rs834 mn as on December 31, 2012 against a negative Rs2.4 bn on June 30, 2012. The reversal in working capital cycle might have resulted from an enhanced working capital requirement in the power business, which has ramped up to almost its full capacity during this quarter.

` DBCL reported strong 3QFY13 EBITDA at Rs1.23 bn (+18% yoy), much above our Rs1.1 bn expectation; the positive variance was largely due to robust 11% yoy growth in advertising revenues helped by (1) complete festival season in 3QFY13 versus typical split between 2Q and 3Q as well as (2) favorable base. DB noted strong traction in both key local as well as national categories such as auto, durables, real estate, lifestyle as well as FMCG. Education and BFSI (against our expectation) were subdued but ad spends in these sectors typically peak in 4Q-1Q; we expect improved traction over time. However, auto volumes took a hit beyond festival season and it may not contribute incrementally going forward.

Firing on all cylinders but renewed expansion in FY2014E may cap margin gains

We have previously highlighted that operating margins of print media companies in general were adversely impacted by four factors in FY2012-1HFY13: (1) weak advertising, (2) sharp newsprint inflation (>15% yoy), (3) Rupee depreciation (also impact on ECB borrowings of print media companies) and (4) large new market expansion losses. The cost side (led by newsprint, Rupee and expansions) stabilized in 1HFY13 but recovery in advertising was needed to drive EBITDA margins, which reached ~28% in 3QFY13 from ~21-23% in prior quarters. However, we note (1) 3QFY13 EBITDA margins should not be seen as the benchmark given seasonality benefit and (2) renewed expansions may cap margin gains in FY2014E; we model ~100 bps CAGR margin expansion to reach ~26% levels in FY2015E, implying robust 20%+ PAT CAGR.

BUY with 12-month forward fair value of Rs260; Rs2/share interim dividend

DBCL is starting to fire on all cylinders: (1) advertising recovery, (2) moderating newsprint inflation

(~5% yoy in 3QFY13) and (3) reduced expansion losses. The turnaround from weak macro- environment (advertising, newsprint, Rs/US$) exaggerated by the timing of new market expansions (1HFY13, just before the downturn) is complete now. Retain BUY with 12-month forward fair value of Rs260 (unchanged). DBCL’s fundamentals remained intact even in the stress-case scenario given robust cash flows and balance sheet; DBCL paid Rs5/share dividend in FY2012 and has announced Rs2/share interim dividend in FY2013E.

` DBCL noted improved traction in both yields and volumes and highlighted that both contributed almost evenly to the 11% yoy growth in 3QFY13. DBCL’s overall realizations were likely helped by increasing maturity of new markets (Jharkhand, Maharashtra) since ad yields/rates typically remain depressed in a weak environment and initial ad recovery is also volumes-driven. Our discussions with a media buyer recently indicated recognition of impact being made by Divya Marathi in Maharashtra.

` However, DBCL surprisingly noted continued strong growth in local advertising versus muted national advertising, with the share of local in DBCL’s advertising having increased to 64% from 60% yoy. This is surprising in light of traction in autos, durables and FMCG advertising noted previously. DBCL noted (1) autos and durables advertising driven by local dealers of national firms (which they later get reimbursed) and (2) regional FMCG starting to advertise heavily in local media, to explain the differential.

` DBCL also reported strong 16% yoy growth in circulation revenues led by counter-cyclical increase in cover prices across legacy markets, though the cycle may be coming to an end. Cover prices also increased in new markets of Jharkhand and Maharashtra, from very low levels, on renewal of subscriptions after one year of operation.

` DBCL reported robust 7% yoy and 9% qoq increase in RM costs. However, we believe the increase needs to be seen in context of volume-led 11% yoy growth in advertising, which necessitated higher pagination levels (had been reduced somewhat previously) and hence, higher newsprint consumption. Newsprint price inflation of ~5% yoy was due to lower 42 gsm newsprint consumption, which is priced higher than standard 45 gsm newsprint but allows for more pages/Kg of newsprint.

` Employee expenses increased 15% yoy given the hiring done during the course of the year to support new launches as well as annual increments in 1QFY13; DBCL likely also paid bonus to low-level employees during festival season.

` DBCL reported strong traction in both mature and emerging edition financials. Mature editions reported 9% yoy growth but only 8% yoy EBITDA growth; robust advertising likely necessitated higher pagination/newsprint consumption; EBITDA margins at ~33% were robust. Emerging editions reported 66% yoy decline in EBITDA losses on 32% yoy revenue growth, with stable costs providing operating leverage.

` DBCL’s balance sheet was marginally weaker versus expectations, given marginal accrual to net cash despite strong PAT. (1) The company spent Rs380 mn to acquire 100% stake in its subsidiaries but Rs150 mn tax benefit will flow after the demerger. (2) Debtor levels increased due to (a) festival season jump (90-day credit period to national advertisers) and (b) settlement of DAVP/Government advertising at year-end.

BUY SpiceJet (SJET)

Others JANUARY 22, 2013 RESULT Coverage view:

Beats estimates comfortably. SpiceJet’s 3QFY13 numbers were significantly ahead of Price (Rs): 46 estimates due to higher-than-expected improvement in yields and efficiencies on the Target price (Rs): 60 cost front. Recent equity infusions by promoters have strengthened the airline and BSE-30: 20,102 allowed it to increase market share (19.5% in Nov 2012 from 13.9% in Sep 2011). The company is well-placed to gain further out of recovery (started from 1QFY13 onwards) in the sector. Increase our estimates. BUY; revised TP of Rs60 (8X FY2014E EBITDAR).

Blockbuster quarter—higher-than-expected yields and cost efficiency drive outperformance

SpiceJet reported 3QFY13 revenue at Rs16 bn (+36% yoy; +33% qoq), which was higher than our estimates on account of higher-than-expected qoq improvement in yields. 3QFY13 EBITDA at Rs1.4 bn is a significant improvement from EBITDA loss of Rs190 mn and Rs1.3 bn in 3QFY12 and 2QFY13, respectively. The company reported 3QFY13 PAT at Rs1 bn versus our expectation of marginal loss in the quarter.

Operationally, sequential comparison would have a bit of skew as the company had wet-leased (2QFY13) two Boeing aircraft to a Middle-Eastern carrier called NAS whose operating numbers were also included in numbers for 2QFY13. Revenue per RPKM at Rs5.03 was up 6.8% qoq and 24% yoy; higher than our expectations. Cost per ASKM (excluding fuel) at Rs1.84 (+11% yoy) in 3QFY13 was down ~3% qoq. The company closed the quarter with a fleet of 36 Boeings and 15 Q-400s.

Recent equity infusions by promoters give comfort

In 3QFY13, the company issued Unsecured Compulsorily Convertible Debentures (UCCD at 14% rate of interest) aggregating Rs1.26 bn which are convertible into equity shares at a price of Rs36.2 per share. Subsequently, 15 mn warrants have also been issued to promoters at a price of Rs36.18 per share. Recent equity infusions by promoters (Rs990 mn infused in 1QFY13) have enabled SpiceJet to expand its regional fleet of Q-400s (owned) in a scenario where the airline was not generating enough cash and domestic banks were unwilling to increase exposure to the sector. As a result, the airline has increased its market share from 13.9% in Sep 2011 to 19.5% in Nov 2012 (one of the gainers as Kingfisher shut operations) and is strongly placed for further improvement in profits if pressure on costs front reduces with appreciating Rupee and/or lower fuel costs and as consumers internalize high inflation in air tickets.

Best is yet to come; BUY with a revised target price of Rs60 (8X FY2014E EBITDAR)

In our view, the company is well-placed to gain out of recovery in the sector which started from 1QFY13 onwards. We have increased our estimates. The best is yet to come; BUY with a revised TP of Rs60 (8X FY2014E EBITDAR).

Others SpiceJet

No concern on account of recent discount scheme launched by the company SpiceJet launched a three–day discount scheme (January 11-13, 2012) which allowed consumers to book air tickets for all the domestic routes at a flat price of Rs2,013 per ticket. We don’t think that market discipline has been harmed on account of the above discount scheme launched by the company as:

` The scheme had only a three-day booking window which has not harmed pricing in the overall market. As per our channel checks, pricing is largely undisturbed in the one-week forward market.

` None of the other companies have followed SpiceJet with similar offers. In our view, impact of the discount scheme would be positive at the PBT level as most of the bookings under the scheme represent incremental revenues which otherwise would not have come. In our view, most of the bookings under the scheme would have been done by leisure travelers (corporate travel cant be planned so much in advance) who otherwise would not have travelled.

JANUARY 22, 2013 UPDATE ‘Golden’ step in the right direction. We welcome the Government’s measures to reduce BSE-30: 20,102 external vulnerabilities through (1) higher gold import duty, (2) linking gold ETFs with gold deposit schemes and (3) incentivizing gold-deposit schemes. We believe there might not be much let-up in jewelry demand but there could be some erosion in investment demand. We expect a likely savings on CAD of US$5-7 bn and an upside in fiscal revenues of Rs40-45 bn in FY2014. However, we need greater clarity on the efficacy of these measures as they could depend heavily on the policing aspect to check inflows through alternative routes.

The changes in brief…

The measures announced are an attempt to reduce the CAD and hence lower external vulnerability. The key policy changes include (1) increasing the import duty on gold (and platinum) to 6% from 4%; (2) linking Gold Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) with the Gold Deposit Scheme QUICK NUMBERS (GDS) to enable mutual funds to unlock their physical gold and divert their investment in gold- linked schemes offered by banks and (3) changing GDS norms for retail investors by reducing the • Import duty on gold minimum quantity of gold to be deposited (currently 500 gms) and the tenure of deposits to six hiked to 6% from months from a minimum of three years, earlier. 4% CAD containment the key: Jewelry demand may hold up… • Attempt to make Gold imports amounted to US$56.5 bn in FY2012 and are estimated at US$38 bn FYTD13. While Gold Deposit no details are available yet, anecdotal evidence indicates the demand for gold from jewelers Scheme more increased significantly in anticipation that the Government may raise customs duty. Thus, we investor-friendly believe jewelry demand may be largely unaffected by the increase in duty. • Revenue gains for … but investment demand for gold may fall the Government The increase in the tariff barrier may affect investment demand for gold in the economy. estimated at Rs40- Investment demand of gold in the Indian economy is estimated at ~30% of last year’s imports of 45 bn in FY2014 ~950 tons. While some part of the investment demand could have been affected by the previous increase in customs duty to 4% from 2%, the reduction in investment demand for gold could be 70-100 tons. At the current gold price of ~US$1,690/oz, this could lead to a saving of US$4-6 bn. Besides, ~40 tons of gold are with mutual funds as part of their physical holdings against gold ETFs. Even if 50% of this is transferred to GDS it could lead to savings of US$1 bn more on the CAD.

Fiscal math may not be impacted much

While garnering revenue was not the intention of the Government, there could be some positivity for the fiscal math. However, there could be some leakage on the revenue front as we expect investment demand of gold to be curtailed on the official channel. We estimate lower investment demand and lower imports due to monetization of domestic holdings could lead to an erosion of ~100 tons in gold imports in FY2014. On the basis of this erosion in gold imports, the revenue upside for the fiscal is estimated at Rs40-45 bn for FY2014. Variations in this amount will depend on the (1) dollar price of gold and (2) USD/INR.

Intention is right, will have to wait for the actual outcomes

While the increased import duty may help to curb gold investment demand through the customs route, the effectiveness of these measures could depend heavily on policing to check inflows through alternative routes. The success of the GDS scheme in channelizing gold holdings into institutional channels depends heavily on the minimum size of deposits and returns payable on the deposits. With the Government showing its intent to control gold imports, further measures in this direction could be expected in the Union Budget.
