REDUCE Larsen & Toubro (LT)

Industrials OCTOBER 04, 2012 UPDATE Coverage view: Cautious

So far so good. While L&T inches closer to Rs200 bn inflows/quarter run-rate in 2Q also, Price (Rs): 1,634 note that 45% of this was from real estate with attendant concentration risks. Several Target price (Rs): 1,515 headwinds remain pertinent to (1) replacing in-house inflows (15% of total) with reluctance BSE-30: 19,058 to commit fresh capital, (2) sweet spot in real estate has helped but PSU/Govt tendering (about 50%) is quite competitive with L&T win rate being quite low (0-35%, 5-7 bidders), (3) valuations at 15.5X one-year forward P/E (adjusted standalone) seem full considering slower earnings growth (10-14% vs 30% CAGR till FY2012). Retain REDUCE (TP: Rs1,515).

Strong inflow momentum but too much dependence on urban real estate driven by sweet spot

L&T announced orders to the tune of Rs158 bn in 2QFY13 (reported Rs196 bn in 1QFY13) of which about 44% of orders were from urban real estate (40% in residential itself). We understand that L&T enjoys a sweet spot in urban real estate with developers having an opportunity to boost project credentials (and pricing) by using L&T as the construction contractor. However, urban real estate may have its own risks related to clearances, completion timelines and developer finances.

Sweet spot does not apply to other areas, particularly in Government/PSU contracts

A similar sweet spot does not seem to exist in other areas, particularly in Government contracts. Business originating from this segment is highly competitive—L&T’s strike rate from clients such as NPCIL (36%), NMDC (nil), ONGC (27%), NTPC (nil in bulk tender), etc. has been relatively low. While we do not expect L&T to win 100% of these orders, we note that order wins may not be an easy walk in this segment. Public sector orders (including in-house) formed about 50% of inflows over the past 2-3 years. While balance sheet stress may inhibit some contractors from bidding for development projects, these players would still bid for cash contracts.

Several headwinds remain related to inflows mix, slow investment pick-up in power, metals, O&G

We also note headwinds related to (1) high proportion of orders from highly competitive (T&D) and plain vanilla (buildings, roads) segments may adversely impact margins, (2) potential difficulty in replacing in-house orders (17% of backlog) in context of incremental reluctance to take up more development jobs; NHAI also shifting gears towards EPC versus BOT, (3) sustained weak investment cycle (power, metals, hydrocarbons, etc.) and (4) lower-than-expected scale-up in international orders.

Even with limited capital commitments, consolidated returns may remain range-bound till FY2015E

Despite limited incremental capital commitments, we believe that the consolidated returns of L&T may still remain range-bound (RoE at 14-15% and RoCE at 6-7%) till FY2015E.

L&T is trading at relatively full 12-month forward valuations of 15.5X P/E (standalone adjusted for Rs420/share value and dividend income from subs), 13.3X EV/EBITDA (consol.) and 2.5X P/B (consol.).

Retain REDUCE (TP: Rs1,515) on weak cyclical outlook creating risk for inflows, margins and working capital. Key upside risks relate to potential stake-sale transactions at higher-than-attributed values and higher-than-expected margins.

Strong inflows momentum so far though primarily driven by urban real estate

L&T announced orders to the tune of Rs158 bn in 2QFY13 (versus reported number of Rs196 bn in 1QFY13 and announcements of Rs156 bn in 1QFY13). Of the Rs158 bn announced in 2QFY13, Rs69 bn is from the industrial & commercial buildings segment, about Rs22 bn from water segment (water supply schemes) and Rs16 bn from T&D sector (file contains the detail list and segmental split of the orders). L&T had guided for 15-20% growth in order inflows—which implies Rs800-850 bn of orders in full-year FY2013E (our estimate of Rs765 bn).

L&T has reported 44% of orders out of total of Rs158 bn from urban real estate (with 40% in residential alone). We understand that L&T enjoys sweet spot in urban real estate with developers having an opportunity to boost project credentials (and pricing) by using L&T as construction contractor. However, we believe that urban real estate has its own risks related to clearances, completion timelines and finances of developers.

Sweet spot may not be present in other areas particularly Government/PSU contracts

Similar sweet spot does not seem to exist in other areas particularly in Government and PSU contracts. We highlight that business originating from these clients is highly competitive. L&T’s strike rate (orders won versus bids placed) from clients such as NPCIL (36%), NMDC (nil), ONGC (27%), NTPC (nil in bulk tender), etc. has been relatively low in the past 12-18 months. While balance sheet stress (on high debt levels) may inhibit some contractors from bidding for development projects, these players would still bid for cash contracts (which may in fact help relieve some of the balance sheet stress).

Public sector orders (including in-house development projects) constituted an average of about 50% of inflows over the past two-three years.

Several other headwinds related to inflow mix, capex slowdown remain

We also note several other headwinds related to (1) high dependence (17% of backlog) on in-house orders in context of incremental reluctance to take up more development jobs to preserve capital and boost returns; NHAI also shifting gears in preference of cash contracts versus BOT contracts, (2) investment cycle remains weak and may take some time to pick up in several areas like power, metals, hydro carbons oil & gas, etc., (3) international orders have also remained lackluster in FY2013E so far and may take time to scale up and (4) high proportion of orders from highly competitive (T&D) and plain vanilla (roads, buildings) segments may adversely impact margins.

17% from in-house development projects may be difficult to replace

We also note that in-house development projects contributed an average of about 10-15% of total order inflows in the past three years and constitute about 17% of the 1QFY13-end order backlog. These development projects were primarily related to L&T’s road projects and Hyderabad Metro project.

These order inflows are likely to slow down significantly on the back of (1) sedate ordering by NHAI in 1QFY13; furthermore, NHAI may be shifting gears with a larger proportion of incremental contracts to be awarded on cash-basis versus BOT earlier, (2) company’s own stance to not bid for any new BOT projects with an aim to preserve capital commitments and boost consolidated returns and (3) significant proportion of Hyderabad Metro project has already placed on L&T.

The company would have to replace these orders by other segments which may be difficult to achieve, especially in a slow capex environment.

International orders have also not scaled up as yet

Order inflows from international geographies is yet to scale up in FY2013E—international orders constituted about 9-11% of total inflows in FY2013E so far. L&T management has earlier shared that they expect international orders to lead the yoy growth in FY2013E (expected to grow by about 35% yoy in FY2013E).

Investment cycle may take time to pick up in power, metals, hydrocarbons

We also believe that investment cycle may take time to pick up in:

` Power. Power may remain subdued based on (1) large pipeline of under construction contracts amounting to >100 GW, (2) lack of clarity on fuel availability, pass through, cap on merchant, review of block allocations etc., (3) some State Government contracts may offer opportunity however states may be keen to tie available power in case 1 bids rather than develop green-field projects. Most of current pipeline from states is based on captive coal allotted to their mining corporations and thus they may wait for clarity on coal blocks before committing to develop plants.

` Metals, other resource-intensive sectors. Similarly capex cycle in metals and other resource intensive areas may take time to take off as Government may have to establish clear guidelines for resource allocations in light of recent Supreme Court judgment. Capex attractiveness in several areas may go down if resource is fully priced.

` Hydrocarbons and oil & gas. Our energy team believes that there is limited fresh capex planning in hydrocarbons (no new refinery on anvil right now post Paradip as Bina, Bhatinda are completed) and oil & gas (GSPC KG project is nearing completion, relatively smaller redevelopment contracts from ONGC in Mumbai High and other marginal fields).

Despite limited capital commitments, consolidated returns may remain range- bound till FY2015E

We believe that despite limited incremental capital commitments, the consolidated returns of the company may remain range-bound (RoE at about 14-15% and RoCE at about 6-7%) till FY2015E. The increased profits from finance and IT subsidiaries are likely to be offset by (1) recently commercialized shipbuilding and forgings facilities likely to make losses in the first few years of operations and (2) potential incremental losses from commissioning of road projects in the portfolio.

Marginally revise estimates; reiterate REDUCE with a TP of Rs1,515

We marginally revise our consolidated estimates to Rs84.6 and Rs93 (from Rs83.2 and Rs90) and our standalone estimates to Rs79.7 and Rs88.4 (from Rs79 and Rs86.3) for FY2013E and FY2014E respectively on slightly higher order inflows assumption and shift in inflow mix for FY2013E.

We revise our SOTP-based target price to Rs1,515/share from Rs1,475/share earlier based on marginal revisions to standalone estimates and 6-month forward rollover for valuations of services and manufacturing subsidiaries. Value for infrastructure SPVs is based on potential invested book value at end-FY2013E and other subsidiaries value is based on invested equity at end-FY2012.

Our SOTP-based target price of Rs1,515/share is comprised of (1) Rs1,097/share from the standalone EPC business (on 14X 12-month forward EPS), (2) Rs184/share from the service subsidiaries (Finance, Infra Finance and Infotech), (3) Rs38/share from the manufacturing subsidiaries and associate companies), (4) Rs144/share from 1.25X FY2013E book value of infrastructure SPVs and (5) Rs52/share from other subsidiaries and investments.

We retain our REDUCE rating on the company based on (1) weak trends in margins and working capital (at 15.3% of sales), (2) inflows outlook remains weak with deterioration in inflow mix (increased share from roads, buildings, T&D sectors) and (3) full valuations— standalone trades at 15.5X one-year forward P/E (adjusted for Rs420/share for subsidiaries).

Potential upside risks relate to private equity/strategic investor transaction in the Infrastructure development business, higher-than-expected margins, slightly better outlook on new areas like shipbuilding and better-than-expected order inflows in the power sector (even on BTG/EPC order can be meaningful based on absolute size of the orders).

NEUTRAL Automobiles

India OCTOBER 04, 2012 UPDATE BSE-30: 19,058

2QFY13 results preview. We expect a weak quarter for auto companies despite strong revenue growth due to pressure on EBITDA margins, largely because of currency headwinds and weaker product mix. Revenues are expected to rise by 18% yoy for the companies under our coverage universe driven by M&M and Tata Motors. We expect M&M to outperform peers while Hero and Maruti will have a tough quarter.

M&M is likely to outperform peers while Hero and Maruti are likely to face currency headwind

We expect M&M + MVML profits to rise by 18% yoy in 2QFY13, outperforming its peers by a wide margin. We expect M&M + MVML’s revenue growth of 24% yoy driven by strong growth in UV volumes and addition of XUV500 volumes. We estimate EBITDA margins to decline by 70 bps qoq due to lower share of tractors in the product mix and deterioration in tractor margins due to 16% qoq decline in tractor volumes.

Hero Motocorp’s and Maruti Suzuki’s profits are likely to decline by 28-30% yoy in 2QFY13E due to significant decline in volumes and pressure on operating margins, driven by lag impact of currency headwind and negative operating leverage. We expect Hero Motocorp’s and Maruti Suzuki’s EBITDA margins to decline by 200-230 bps sequentially.

Negligible volumes of Range Rover to impact JLR’s profitability

We expect Tata Motors’ consolidated profits to decline by 10% yoy despite a 22% yoy growth in revenues. The key reason for this decline is the sharp rise in interest expenses in the standalone operations due to increase in working capital requirements and subdued growth in JLR EBITDA (+2% yoy). JLR’s EBITDA margins are likely to decline by 160 bps qoq in our view, driven by negligible volumes of Range Rover in the product mix. We expect a revenue loss of GBP553 mn due to lack of Range Rover in the product mix, but we expect revenue loss to be offset to some extent by higher volumes of Freelander and Discovery on a sequential basis.

Bajaj Auto’s profitability is likely to remain intact on a qoq basis

We estimate Bajaj Auto volumes to decline by 10% yoy in 2QFY13E, driven by 12% yoy decline in three-wheeler volumes. Despite weak volume growth, we expect Bajaj Auto’s EBITDA margins to remain flat qoq driven by (1) 200 bps positive impact of pricing/product mix (higher share of three- wheelers and addition of Pulsar 200NS, Discover 125ST sales in the mix) offset by (2) 200 bps impact on margins due to price cut in the Sri Lankan market. We estimate Bajaj Auto profits to remain flat qoq.

We maintain Tata Motors as our top pick in the sector

We maintain Tata Motors as our top pick in the sector followed by M&M as we believe New Range Rover and Range Rover Sport will be key contributors towards improving JLR’s profitability in

FY2014E. We believe the SUV share in luxury car market will continue to increase and JLR will be a key beneficiary of this trend.

Our top sell idea is Maruti in the sector as we expect volume growth to remain subdued while EBITDA margins are unlikely to improve significantly due to sluggish market growth and increase in competition.

2QFY13 results preview

We expect a weak quarter for auto companies despite strong revenue growth due to pressure on EBITDA margins, largely because of currency headwinds and weaker product mix. Revenues are expected to rise by 18% yoy for the companies under our coverage universe driven by 24% yoy growth in M&M revenues and 22% yoy growth in Tata Motors revenues. We expect EBITDA margins to decline by 150 bps qoq primarily due to deterioration in margins of Hero Motocorp, Maruti Suzuki and Tata Motors. We expect raw material costs to remain stable during the quarter; however, currency headwinds could impact Hero Motocorp’s and Maruti Suzuki’s margins during the quarter.

Key highlights of companies

` Ashok Leyland. We estimate Ashok Leyland’s MHCV volumes to decline by 17% yoy which will be a key pressure point for the operating margins. Addition of Dost volumes would boost overall volumes but due to low contribution of Dost in the revenues, we believe EBITDA margins are likely to decline by 230 bps yoy. We expect profit to decline by 54% yoy due to sharp rise in depreciation and interest expenses.

` Bajaj Auto. We estimate Bajaj Auto volumes to decline by 10% yoy in 2QFY13E driven by 12% yoy decline in three-wheeler volumes. Despite weak volume growth, we expect Bajaj Auto’s EBITDA margins to remain flat qoq driven by (1) 200 bps positive impact of pricing/product mix (higher share of three-wheelers and addition of Pulsar 200NS, Discover 125ST sales in the mix) offset by (2) 200 bps impact on margins due to price cut in Sri Lankan market.

` Hero Motocorp. We expect Hero Motocorp’s EBITDA margins to decline by 200 bps qoq driven by (1) 7% appreciation of JPY versus INR in 1QFY13 versus 4QFY12 which is likely to result in increase in vendor import costs as it is passed through with a quarter’s lag (we estimate -100 bps impact due to currency) and (2) we reckon EBITDA margins could also decline further by 100 bps due to negative operating leverage as volumes have declined by 19% qoq.

` Maruti Suzuki. We believe Maruti’s EBITDA margins are likely to decline by 230 bps qoq driven by (1) -90 bps impact due to inferior product mix (lower diesel sales) and increase in discounts on petrol models, (2) -100 bps impact due to 7% appreciation of JPY versus INR in 1QFY13 versus 4QFY12 which is likely to result in increase in vendor import costs as it is passed through with a quarter’s lag and (3) -40 bps due to negative operating leverage.

` Mahindra and Mahindra. We expect strong topline growth (24% yoy) driven by strong growth in UV volumes and addition of XUV500 volumes. We estimate EBITDA margins to decline by 70 bps qoq due to lower share of tractors in the product mix and deterioration in tractor margins due to 16% qoq decline in tractor volumes.

` Tata Motors. We expect standalone business to remain under pressure driven by very low profitability of passenger vehicle business and decline in commercial vehicle volumes. Jaguar and Land Rover will also have a weak quarter due to negligible volumes of high- margin Range Rover in the product mix due to model change. We estimate JLR’s EBITDA margins to decline by 160 bps qoq.

` Exide Industries. We expect a stable quarter for Exide due to strong growth in the inverter business but we expect EBITDA margins to decline by 40 bps qoq due to rise in lead prices and lower share of inverter business in the product mix.

CAUTIOUS Metals & Mining

India OCTOBER 04, 2012 UPDATE BSE-30: 19,058

2QFY13E preview—metal stocks stare at weak operational quarter. We expect a weak operational quarter for Indian metal and mining names due to (1) a decline in commodity prices—1-3% in non-ferrous and 9-13% in the steel segment, and (2) increase in conversion costs. Reported net profit may however appear better on forex gains on unhedged FX borrowings. JSPL would be the only company to report yoy and qoq growth in earnings. We retain our Cautious coverage view on the sector.

A weak operational quarter for Indian metal stocks

2QFY13 had it all—resurfacing of Euro debt crisis, slowdown in China without any adjustment in production and a freefall in commodity prices. Commodity prices rebounded in September led by the announcement of a bond-buying program by ECB, open-ended monetary easing by FED and stimulus measures in China through approval of US$125 bn of infrastructure projects. Despite the rebound, commodity prices would be down on a sequential basis—1-3% for nonferrous and 9- 13% for steel products. We forecast sequential EBITDA decline for all companies (except JSPL and Hindalco) under our coverage due to (1) a decline in commodity prices and (2) cost push with increase in power & fuel and employees costs.

Non-ferrous segment to be impacted by price decline and cost inflation

While lower commodity prices is a common underlying theme for a weak quarter, there are additional concerns in each of the segments—(1) aluminium producers would have a seasonally weak quarter due to the monsoon that impacts availability of coal to fire power plants. As a result, expect sequential spike in coal costs. We expect yoy and qoq EBITDA decline for Nalco and muted performance from Hindalco, (2) deterioration in ore grade will impact production, costs and EBITDA of Hindustan Zinc for the quarter and (3) Sterlite will be impacted by the above factors. In addition, the power segment may also be impacted by lower availability of coal for the Jharsugda power plant. We expect yoy and qoq EBITDA decline of 10.7% and 4% respectively.

Steel companies—fine for a seasonally weak quarter

Steel prices have declined by Rs1,500-1,800/tonne in the flats segments and Rs2,000-2,500 in the long products. We expect a marginal uptick in steel deliveries though continuation of inventory build-up is a source of concern. However, a combination of strong volume growth (JSW Steel and

JSPL) and benefit of Rupee depreciation (all companies) shall ensure flattish-to-marginal growth in EBITDA on yoy comparison.

Currency to the rescue at the operational and net income level

Indian metal companies would have the best of both worlds—average currency depreciation of 2.1% in 2QFY13 over 1QFY13 and appreciation at the end of the quarter period (September 30 over June 30) that shall ensure large forex gains on unhedged foreign currency borrowings. We expect gains of Rs0.2-2 bn for companies under our coverage universe.

Retain Cautious view on the sector—overcapacity and excess inventory to hurt

We maintain our Cautious coverage view on the sector. We believe that slowdown in China, overcapacity, lack of production discipline, especially in steel, and excess inventory will keep commodity prices under check and impede any recovery in stock prices. India-specific factors of projects that are stuck due to lack of availability of raw material, environmental clearances and mining ban are additional headwinds. Highly leveraged balance sheet of select companies in a weakening cycle does not help either.

INDIA Strategy

India Quantitative OCTOBER 04, 2012 UPDATE BSE-30: 19,058 Sentiments drive alpha in CYTD12 even as value flourishes in September. While value-based investing continues to exhibit a high risk-reward profile, sentiment as an investment style has flourished in CYTD12 yielding 14% during the period. Three out of the five companies in the sentiment-based portfolio for October 2012 are from the Cement sector.

Introducing eXtractor, KIE’s proprietary data-analytics tool We introduce KIE’s proprietary data-analytics tool, eXtractor, which mines a universe of Indian stocks based on nine factors: value, relative value, growth, profitability, momentum, leverage, size, sentiment and our proprietary factor iQ, or investment quotient. The data-mining is comprehensive in nature with iQ, deriving higher concepts from basic financial parameters by unifying various traditional investment parameters under a single factor. This bridges the gap between data and QUICK NUMBERS inference. eXtractor will soon be available on our website, where clients can screen and test • In September 2012, various investment styles, using their own parameters for universe, investment horizons, churn periods, portfolio size and more. portfolios based on value and relative September 2012 portfolio performance—value dominates while iQ lags behind value returned 13% With the broader markets rallying ~8% during the month, most of the investment styles failed to and 18% outperform the CNX Nifty 50. Value and relative value dominated in terms of outperformance respectively with the respective portfolios yielding 13.3% and 17.9% respectively (see Exhibit 1). The value portfolio benefited with the presence of PSU banks like PNB (up 24% mom) and BoB (up 26% • Value-based mom) which saw a reversal in sentiments in September as India witnessed strong FII inflows. iQ investing has and growth lagged the broader benchmark with TCS disappointing in both portfolios (down 3.6%). underperformed Since June 2012, investment styles based on value and relative value have shown considerable the CNX Nifty 50 by volatility (see Exhibit 2). Momentum and KIE’s composite factor, iQ, have disappointed while a 6% in CYTD12 portfolio strategy based on sentiments has shown relative consistency during the same period. CYTD12 investment trends—sentiments have been a driving force again • Sentiment has been the best performing For CYTD12, portfolios based on sentiments like EPS and rating revisions have been the best investment style in performers, outperforming the CNX Nifty 50 by ~14% (see Exhibit 3). This is similar to the trend CYTD12 witnessed in CY2010 and CY2011 where sentiment-based investments outperformed the broader index and other traditional investment styles. While value gained dominance in June 2012 and September 2012, the investment style has underperformed the broader index on a CYTD basis. These current trends for sentiment and value seem to verify the historical trend witnessed for each of these styles since April 2006. Sentiment has historically shown alpha-generating accuracy with a hit ratio of ~70% (see Exhibit 4) while value has a coin-toss probability of outperforming on a monthly basis. Value picking’s unimpressive hit ratio is compensated by its high risk-reward balance with a historical profit factor of ~1.5X (see Exhibit 5) implying that expected returns from a value-picking strategy are usually 1.5X the downside risk.

Portfolio changes for October 2012—Cairn enters the value and relative value portfolio While Exhibit 6 showcases the different portfolios based on the traditional investment styles for the previous month (September 2012), refer to Exhibit 7 for the October 2012 portfolios for the same. With a strong rally witnessed in September, the portfolio based on relative value has three replacements. Jaiprakash Associates, Hindalco and Sterlite have been replaced by Cairn, Sesa Goa and Axis Bank. JPA and Hindalco rallied 27% and 16% in September while Sterlite gets removed from the portfolio as it has exited the CNX Nifty 50. ONGC replaces TCS in the iQ-based portfolio while Cairn continues to exhibit a high iQ-score on the back of growth, value and profitability. Cement companies dominate the sentiment portfolio with three out of the five companies coming from the sector (Ambuja Cements, Ultratech Cements and Grasim Industries). The portfolio based on sentiment is already up 2.8% in October 2012.
