Higher raw material costs and other expenses were key contributors to the lower margin profile PAT for the quarter was at | 23.1 crore, up 7.5% YoY Monsoon progress loses steam, sowing activity yet up pick up pace As per the latest release by IMD, cumulative rainfall activity in the ongoing monsoon season 2018 as of July 30, 2018 was at -6% of long period average (LPA). Cumulatively, rainfall activity was healthy in the southern (+2% of LPA), central (+6% of LPA) and northwest (-1% of LPA) region while it is muted in the eastern region (-28% of LPA). A pick-up in monsoon activity around mid-July has led to smart repletion of water levels in national reservoirs, with water levels above last year as well as 10-year average levels. Sowing activity is, however, muted and yet to pick up pace with cumulative sowing in the ongoing Kharif season 2018 as on July 27 at 73.4 million hectare (MH), down 7.5% YoY.

Domestic tractor industry to lose pace post stellar growth in FY17 & FY18 The domestic tractor industry has been at the forefront of farm mechanisation in India. The tractor industry posted record sales volume of 711,478 units (up 22.1% YoY) in FY18 after ending FY17 at 582,853 units (up 18% YoY). We expect the growth momentum to slip a bit tracking high base. As per industry sources, domestic tractor industry growth rate in FY19E is estimated at ~12-14% while in FY20E it is expected in single digits.

Result Update

Muted growth to weigh on premium valuation

Swaraj Engines (SEL) reported a steady Q1FY19 performance with

engine sales volume coming in at 26,742 units, up 14.8% YoY

This lags the tractor volume growth of ~19% at its parent in the

corresponding period, signalling some loss of market share by

Swaraj brand of tractors in the domestic market

Consequent sales in Q1FY19 were at | 264.5 crore, up 20.9% YoY

EBITDA in Q1FY19 was at | 36.6 crore with corresponding EBITDA

margins at 15.6%, down 100 bps YoY. Higher raw material costs and

other expenses were key contributors to the lower margin profile

PAT for the quarter was at | 23.1 crore, up 7.5% YoY

Monsoon progress loses steam, sowing activity yet up pick up pace

As per the latest release by IMD, cumulative rainfall activity in the ongoing

monsoon season 2018 as of July 30, 2018 was at -6% of long period

average (LPA). Cumulatively, rainfall activity was healthy in the southern

(+2% of LPA), central (+6% of LPA) and northwest (-1% of LPA) region

while it is muted in the eastern region (-28% of LPA). A pick-up in

monsoon activity around mid-July has led to smart repletion of water

levels in national reservoirs, with water levels above last year as well as

10-year average levels. Sowing activity is, however, muted and yet to pick

up pace with cumulative sowing in the ongoing Kharif season 2018 as on

July 27 at 73.4 million hectare (MH), down 7.5% YoY. Swaraj brand of

tractor that uses engines manufactured at SEL is a leading tractor player

domestically with market share of ~14-15%. It will be a key beneficiary of

increase in farm mechanisation domestically amid government’s thrust on

increasing farm income through higher MSPs and irrigation penetration.

Domestic tractor industry to lose pace post stellar growth in FY17 & FY18

The domestic tractor industry has been at the forefront of farm

mechanisation in India. The tractor industry posted record sales volume

of 711,478 units (up 22.1% YoY) in FY18 after ending FY17 at 582,853

units (up 18% YoY). We expect the growth momentum to slip a bit

tracking high base. As per industry sources, domestic tractor industry

growth rate in FY19E is estimated at ~12-14% while in FY20E it is

expected in single digits. SEL’s parent, however, is growing strong and

maintained its leadership position with market share in excess of 40%. In

the long term, tractor industry is expected to grow at ~8-10% CAGR.

Healthy balance sheet, robust return ratios, assign HOLD

Swaraj Engines has a healthy balance sheet with cash surplus of ~| 180

crore as of FY18. It has one of the most capital efficient business models

in the listed space, with RoICs in excess of 200% largely due to negative

working capital cycle and high dividend payout ratio (~75%). Average

RoCE & RoE in FY18-20E are expected at 49% & 37%, respectively. SEL

also generates healthy CFO, with average CFO of ~| 112 crore over FY18-

20E thereby offering a healthy CFO yield of 5%. At the CMP, it also offers

a healthy dividend yield of ~3%. Going forward, however, with limited

growth prospects in the tractor segment in FY18-20E post stupendous run

in FY17-19E, we downgrade our valuation multiple (23x now vs. 30x in

the past) and consequent rating on SEL to HOLD. We expect SEL to clock

engine sales volume CAGR of 10.3% in FY18-20E to 112,033 units in

FY20E (92,022 units in FY18). We expect sales, PAT to grow at a CAGR of

13.2%, 12.0%, respectively, in FY18-20E. Conservatively, we keep EBITDA

margins largely flat in the aforesaid period. We value SEL at | 1900 i.e.

23x P/E on FY20E EPS of | 82.8.

Monsoon progress loses pace, at -6% of LPA as on July 30

The South West Monsoon, which accounts for ~70% of annual rainfall

domestically, has been forecast to be normal in nature. The initial onset

with a flourish was followed by a prolonged dull period (mid-June).

Currently, as we stand today, total cumulative rainfall in the ongoing

monsoon season as of July 30 was at -6% of LPA. The rainfall is in the

normal range in the southern, central as well as northern region while is

muted in the eastern region.

Company Analysis

SEL is a joint holding of Kirloskar Industries (KIL) (17.4% stake) and a

leading tractor player (33.2% stake) with the latter the main promoter

consequent to its acquisition of Punjab Tractors in 2007-08. The

Government of India originally set up the company in 1985 for

manufacturing diesel engines for Punjab Tractors, which marketed their

products under the Swaraj brand. SEL commenced production at its

facility in Mohali in 1988 and has been a profitable entity since then. Since

inception, the company also had a technical collaboration with KIL that

also bought ~17% stake in SEL, thereby partnering with SEL in all its

technical, designing and functional needs. However, from 2005-06, the

company ended its technical collaboration with KIL and developed in-

house capability and facilities for modernisation and technological

upgradation of its products.

SEL serves the engine requirements of the Swaraj brand of tractors. The

company manufactures engines catering to tractors in the 20-50 hp

segment and caters to ~85-88% of the total engine requirement at

parent’s Swaraj tractor division. SEL has a current installed capacity to

manufacture 120,000 units of engines. The company also manufactures

hi-tech engine components for commercial vehicles for SML Isuzu

(erstwhile Swaraj Mazda). The contribution to the topline, however,

remains limited (<3%).

As far as segmental sales are concerned, SEL manufactures ~10%

engines catering to the <=30 hp tractor segment, ~50% engines catering

to the 31-40 hp tractor segment and ~40% engines catering to the 41-50

hp tractor segment. SEL’s margins vary across the hp segment with

margins more accretive in the higher hp segment.

Domestic tractor market on strong footing; penetration set to increase

The domestic tractor industry has been at the forefront of farm

mechanisation in India with tractor sales increasing at a CAGR of 7.4% in

FY10-18 to ~7.1 lakh units in FY18 (~4.0 lakh units in FY10). Within

segments, main growth was witnessed in the segment of 41-50 hp, which

has grown at a CAGR of 17.2% to 3.4 lakh units over FY10-18 (94

thousand units in FY10). This reflects the preference towards tractors for

farming as well as other allied services like haulage of construction

material and personnel. On the other hand, sales of small hp tractors i.e.

<= 30 hp & 31-40 hp, which are primarily meant for agricultural activities,

have grown at a CAGR of -0.2% & 3.4%, respectively, in FY10-18.

In terms of composition, robust growth was seen in the 41-50 hp segment

leading to significant market share gains of 2380 bps to 47.2% in FY18

from 23.4% in FY10. On the other hand, a maximum drop in market share

was observed in the 31-40 hp segment wherein the percentage share

dropped 1250 bps to 35.8% in FY18 from 48.3% in FY10.

Going forward, on the back of the central government’s thrust on

augmenting the farm income through both increases in productivity and

better farm realisations, we expect the domestic tractor industry to

witness healthy double digit growth in FY19E. Long term growth of the

domestic tractor industry is, however, pegged at 8-10% (as per industry

estimates) primarily on the back of the government’s thrust on increasing

crop yields through greater farm mechanisation, increasing penetration of

tractors in low tractor density states mainly southern & western regions,

replacement demand from high tractor density states (mainly the

northern region) and a pick-up expected in domestic construction

industry. This will increase tractor demand for haulage/commercial

usages (non-farm usage comprises ~30% of tractor demand

domestically).

SEL: Expanding capacity; sales & profitability to follow

Post acquisition by parent (i.e. post FY08), SEL has always operated at

optimal capacity utilisation levels with utilisation levels at 88% (average)

in FY10-18. During the aforesaid period, the company has consistently

undertaken five expansion programmes from its first increase in capacity

from 36,000 units to 42,000 units in FY11, to finally augment its capacity

to 120,000 units in FY19E.

Going forward, we expect sales volumes to grow at a CAGR of 10.3% in

FY18-20E to 112,033 units in FY20E vs. 92,022 units in FY18. The

company is expected to augment its capacity to 120,000 units in FY19E

incurring a capex of ~| 25 crore, funded through internal accruals.

Working capital - key hallmark of SEL!

SEL, after being acquired, has drastically improved its working capital

cycle with net working capital days reducing from 42 days in FY08 to four

days in FY09. Thereafter, the net working capital has either been

marginally negative or zero, thereby implying prudent capital

management. This has resulted in strong cash flow generation for the

company with five-year average CFO: EBITDA at 1.1x in FY14-18.

Going forward, we conservatively build in a negative working capital cycle

of 20 days over FY19-20E. NWC days further improved to negative 28

days in FY18 from negative 21 days in FY17.

SEL also undertakes continuous innovation and technology

upgradation to meet the changing engine requirements at

the Swaraj division. The company is also developing

engines in the >50 hp segment that will further help

augment sales at SEL. All expenses for the aforesaid

expansion were undertaken from internal accruals

All capacity additions were undertaken under the

supervision of the main promoter group as and when the

parent sensed the greater demand for the Swaraj brand of

tractors

Superior return ratios; high dividend payouts!

The return ratio profile of SEL has been superior with five-year average

RoCEs and RoEs at 34% and 27%, respectively, in FY14-18. Going

forward, post the blip in FY16 (volume de-growth of 1%) on the back of a

pick-up in tractor (Swaraj) demand/capacity expansion and consequent

engine sales, we expect return ratios to inch up in FY18-20E. The core

return ratio i.e. RoICs has, however, been above 100% post acquisition

with five-year average RoICs at 194% in FY14-18.

Dividend payout has been excellent with the company’s average dividend

payout in the last five years (FY14-18) at ~75%. SEL has increased its

dividend per share from | 33/share in FY14 to | 50/share in FY18. We

expect this healthy dividend to continue, going forward. Dividend/share is

expected at | 55/share in FY19E, | 60/share in FY20E, thereby offering an

attractive dividend yield of ~3%.

Revenues to grow at 13.2% CAGR in FY18-20E

We expect SEL to clock modest revenue growth at 13.2% CAGR in FY18-

volumes of engines at SEL to grow at a CAGR of 10.3% in FY18-20E to

112,033 units in FY20E (92,022 units in FY18). On the realisations front,

we expect realisations to grow at a CAGR of 3.0% over FY18-20E.

Sales Volume Realization

Source: Company, ICICI Direct Research

For full year FY18, SEL reported volume growth of 12% at 92,022 units.

Going forward, amid the government’s thrust to augment farm income;

we expect sales volume growth of 10.3% CAGR in FY18-20E.

ICICI Securities Ltd | Retail Equity Research Page 8

This would primarily be on the back of good brand recall of Swaraj

Tractors, increasing sales of Swaraj Tractor in low tractor density regions

domestically and new product launches by parent under the Swaraj

brand. SEL in the recent past has developed and started supply of 54 hp

engine to Swaraj tractors thereby upgrading its capabilities. Hence, it is

well poised to encash the underlying growth in the tractor industry

domestically.

EBITDA, PAT to grow at 13.5%, 12.0% CAGR, respectively, in FY18-20E

We expect EBITDA to grow at a CAGR of 13.5% in FY18-20E to | 156.6

crore in FY20E (| 121.7 crore in FY18), primarily on the back of sales

growth (13.2% CAGR) and nearly flat EBITDA margin profile at ~15.8%.

On the PAT front, we expect PAT to grow at a CAGR of 12.0% in FY18-

20E to | 100.4 crore in FY20E (| 80.1 crore in FY18).

Outlook and valuation

Swaraj Engines has a healthy balance sheet with cash surplus of ~| 180

crore as of FY18. It has one of the most capital efficient business models

in the listed space, with RoICs in excess of 200% largely due to negative

working capital cycle and high dividend payout ratio (~75%). Average

RoCE & RoE in FY18-20E are expected at 49% & 37%, respectively. SEL

also generates healthy CFO, with average CFO of ~| 112 crore over the

FY18-20E thereby offering a healthy CFO yield of 5%. At the CMP, it also

offers a healthy dividend yield of ~3%. Going forward, however, with

limited growth prospects in the tractor segment in FY18-20E post a

stupendous run in FY17-19E, we downgrade our valuation multiple (23x

now vs. 30x in the past) and consequent rating on SEL to HOLD. We

expect SEL to clock engine sales volume CAGR of 10.3% in FY18-20E to

112,033 units in FY20E (92,022 units in FY18). We expect sales, PAT to

grow at a CAGR of 13.2%, 12.0%, respectively, in FY18-20E.

Conservatively, we keep EBITDA margins largely flat over the aforesaid

period. We value SEL at | 1900 i.e. 23x P/E on FY20E EPS of | 82.8.
