Kaycee ResearchInvestment rationale Thrust on T&D in the XIth and XIIth planGovt. has planned huge capex in the Transmission & Distribution (T&D) space in the power sector. Areva T&D which is one of the leaders in the same would benefit from the investments planned. Investments planned by PGCIL and investments on the back of APDRP scheme would result in benefit for players like Areva T&D. Areva T&D is present in Transformers, Switchgears and EPC work for power plants.

Better product mix and enhanced project management to increase the margins going forwardThe company’s operating margins has increased by 480 basis points by FY07 due to better product mix and enhanced project management. With the focus now on reducing T&D losses, higher KV orders are being planned which would increase the order inflow for players like Areva which have the capability for executing such higher KV orders. Areva is the first player to have executed 765kv substation in the country for NTPC’s Sipat power plant in Jan, 2007. Areva has good execution capabilities and we expect that these turnkey high end value projects will improve the operating margins as well as increase the bottom line over the period of three years.

Stepping up investments across product categoriesAreva is spending Rs 700cr for green field and brown field expansion. It currently has 8 facilities and is planning 3 more facilities in Hosur, Chennai and Baroda. Areva is setting up a 765KV transformer facility at a cost of Rs 5bn. The company is also setting up a R&D lab and an HV switchgear facility. With the commencement of these operations we expect that company’s turnover will double in FY10 that is the target set up by the management.

ValuationAreva T&D trades at 20.3x EPS of Rs 81.7 for FY09E and 16.0x EPS of Rs 103.7 for FY10E and at a substantial discounts to its closet comparable ABB. We are initiating our coverage on the stock with a BUY rating and a target price of Rs 2080 over a period of 18 months (20x its FY10E Earnings).

The deficit in power supply in terms of peak availability and of total energy availability during the current year was 14.8 per cent and 8.4 per cent, respectively. According to our latest estimates India added 24GW of capacity in the Xth Plan (65% achievement). Further we expect India to add 54GW in the XIth Plan an achievement of 78% against the targets. Inspite addition of this capacity, India would continue to have a peak load deficit of 9.7%, also have base demand deficit of 7.6% in FY12E.

The power capex cycle will be stronger for the long period as the Ministry of Power’s (MoP) has set up generation targets for the XI Plan (FY07-12E) is 79GW and for XII Plan (FY12-17E) is 87GW.This implying that the capacity addition target in the next 10 years from FY07E-FY17E is likely to be 166GW up 89% vis-à-vis that in FY97A-FY07E.

In order to optimize the utilization of generation capacity, PGCIL is executing the build out of the National Grid to enable the transfer of power from surplus to deficit regions. The National Grid, when fully operational, is expected to have a total inter regional transmission capacity from 17000 MW currently to 37150 MW by 2012. Setting upa National Grid requires the gradual strengthening and improvement of regional grids and their progressive integration, through extra high voltage and HVDC transmission lines. This would be entail investments of Rs 710bn, as shown below

Kaycee ResearchAccelerated Power Development & Reform Programme

Transmission & Distribution losses have been consistently on higher side, and reached to the level of 32.86% in the year 2000-01 due lack of adequate investment in this sector. Government of India and States has launched the Accelerated Power Development & Reform Programme (APDRP) in 2001, for the strengthening of Sub Transmission and Distribution network and reduction in AT&C losses with an objective of the programme was to bring Aggregate Technical & Commercial losses below 15%.

Extension of Accelerated Power Development Reforms Programme (APDRP) rural electrification scheme (RGGVY) in the 11th plan shows the government intent to improve the condition of AT&C losses and the last mile connectivity. These two schemes together will require an investment of Rs 3070bn which will provide an impetus to all T&D equipment manufacturers.

PGCIL is in process to open tender in the month of Dec. to set up four to five 765kV substations. Areva is the solely master to set up these high end projects in the country and we expect that the company will get these projects. The total cost to set up one 765kV substations is Rs 150cr to Rs 300cr with the execution period of 20 to 24 months.

Areva has good execution capabilities and we expect that these turnkey high end value projects will improve the operating margins as well as increase the bottom line over the period of three years.

The company operating margins has increased by 480 basis points by FY07 due to product mix and enhanced project management. The contribution of systems business and service business is expected to be higher going forward, as high growth is envisaged in this segment. The EBITDA margins are expected to be stable in the range of 18% over the FY09E & FY10E as commodity prices will soften in FY09E & FY10E, product mix of high ends value projects and enhanced project management.

In this inflationary period the company has put a price escalation clause with the clients, thus company will pass the rise in price of material cost to clients.

Better product mix & enhanced project management results in improved operating margins

Kaycee ResearchKey concerns

Slowdown in investments in generation, transmission and distributionThe power sector in India is highly politicized given the number of employees and the poor financial situation of the State Electricity Boards (SEBs). Sector reforms progress in fits and starts, though there is perceptible change post the awarding of the first 3 Ultra Mega Power Projects (UMPPs).

Efficient implementation of APDRP and RGGVY programmeThe company’s growth is mainly dependent on the efficient implementation of APDRP & RGGVY programme by the government. Thus the business as whole is sensitive to the actions of the Government which can prove to be risky.

Execution and management of projectsThe execution and management of projects is the most important part of the company’s business any delay in projects execution lead to delay in conversion of the order book into revenues.

Substantial increase in input pricesThe key inputs are steel, copper and aluminum. A substantial increase in raw material prices could affect profitability. Turnkey contracts expose Areva’s business to raw material increases. Further, though there is a raw material price pass-through on domestic orders, export orders are typically at fixed prices.
