Preferred distribution partner with MNCs

RAIL has one of the best distribution networks in the country with approximately 40,000retailers covering around 80% of India's districts. RAIL derives around 65% of its Revenues fromits domestic business through sale of own branded formulations (55%) and supply of bulk (10%)to other branded sellers.We believe that RAIL's distribution network is its key strength and thedifferentiating feature vis-a-vis competition. Hence, many MNC global players have inkedstrategic alliances with RAIL for distribution of their products (pesticides and seeds) in thedomestic market. strategic alliance contributes 1/3rd of domestic formulation.

Business restructuring aids turnaround

During FY2001-04, the company was involved in too many businesses which dilutedmanagement's focus and was in the red. Since then, it has come a long way. RAIL initiatedseveral measures to restructure its business following which it managed to turn the corner.Some of the measures initiated by the company included the following:

Selling of non-core business like Pharma and Gelatin;

Merger of subsidiaries to reduce operating expenses;

Disposing land to generate cash; and

Issuance of Preference share worth Rs88cr to Tata group companies.

We believe that RAIL'sdistribution network is its keystrength and thedifferentiating feature vis-a-viscompetition

Investment Argument

Set to seize rising opportunities in the Domestic Pesticides market

India's pesticide consumption stands at an abysmal 0.48kg per hectare (ha) compared to11kg/ha for Japan and 4.5kg/ha for USA. We believe RAIL is well placed to seize the opportunityon account of having a well-spread distribution network, strong brands and robust new productpipeline. Moreover, according to industry estimates, counterfeit, fake and unorganised marketaccounts for another 50% of the industry. Nonetheless, we believe that RAIL has immenseopportunity to wrest marketshare as well as charge a premium for its products on account of itsstrong reach and goodwill among the farmers and the Tata brand.

Strong New Product Pipeline

New product launches has been a key strategy behind RAIL's turnaround performance. On anaverage, the company has been registering 5-6 products and launching 3-4 products every year.Pertinently, new product launches were possible due to RAIL's strong reach and goodwill amongthe farmers and the Tata brand associated with it which has enabled it to conduct the field trials.The Indian registration process is regarded as one of the most stringent ones in Asia (excludingJapan). Each new formulation typically takes 2-3 years for approval from the time of registration,as it has to undergo extensive field trials with respect to chemistry, toxicology, metabolism,efficacy, soil residue and packaging/labelling.

The company’s New product sales contribution has been in the range of 24-31% of its TotalSales over FY2001 to FY2009. Currently, the company's Top-5 products contribute almost25-30% of Sales. Of this, two brands are less than four years old while the balance three havebeen in the market for over four years. This indicates RAIL's strong capability to innovate andmarket new products. We believe RAIL's constant focus on new products would continue toyield results going ahead on the back of its strong R&D and registration pipeline.

Exhibit 7: New Products - Sales contribution

R&D - Eight new molecules in pipeline

RAIL has a robust pipeline of eight new molecules under the Fungicide category. Rallis and theCouncil of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR), New Delhi jointly hold commercial rights ofthese molecules, as this project is initiated under the Public-Private-Partnership (PPP) schemeof New Millennium India Technology Leadership Initiative. The government through soft loans(3% interest rate) funds this research. These molecules are at various stages of field trials.Agrichemical R&D is very similar to that of pharmaceutical, any molecule can turnout to be amulti-billion dollar opportunity or prove to be a complete failure. Given RAIL's strong R&D trackrecord, management expects to launch at least one successful molecule from its pipeline overthe next 2-3 years. Success of a single molecule, we believe, will put the company into analtogether new growth trajectory. However, we have not factored in the same, which poses anupside risk to our estimates.

Exports to register steady growth

Over FY2004-09, RAIL's Exports registered a decent CAGR of 27.7%. However, FY2009 was anexceptional year where the company's exports spiked a significant 80% to Rs295cr andcontribution to Total Revenue stood at around 35% compared to 21% and 22% in FY2007 andFY2008, respectively. Thus, excluding the phenomenal growth registered in FY2009, thecompany's Exports CAGR during FY2004-08 stood at 10.3%.

The company's exceptional FY2009 performance was driven by a combination of factorsincluding:

Closing down of capacity in China before the Olympics 2008Closing of many manufacturing units on ecological ground created overall shortage.

Diversification of manufacturing base globallyMany global MNCs were dependent on Chinese manufacturing base for supply of their

product. To mitigate risks arising from such dependence, they started sourcing from the Indianmanufacturers.

Post the Olympics, the scenario has changed with many closed capacities coming on stream.Besides, overall slowdown in the global economy has also resulted in sluggish demand theworldover. It is against this backdrop that we estimate RAIL to post a decent CAGR of 17.7% inExports over FY2009-11E.

Contract Manufacturing - Cumulative Revenue target of Rs1,000cr over nextfive years

Currently, RAIL is an exclusive contract manufacturer and supplier of two agrichemicals andone speciality polymer to a global player. RAIL has entered into long-term (5-7 years) supplyagreement with global MNCs. Revenue and Profit visibility is usually high in such dedicatedmanufacturing supply agreements. Hence, going ahead, we expect this Segment to be the keygrowth driver for the company.

Global supplier for AI

Global agrichemical companies have been reducing manufacturing capacity of low valueproducts to concentrate on higher-value products. Conversely, they are maintaining their stronghold on off-patent AI through outsourcing the same. For example, Germany's BASF has cut itsrange of AI from 300 in 2001 to 130 in 2006. Syngenta has also reduced its portfolio from 120 to80. Bayer CropScience reduced its portfolio by 29 actives between 2000 and 2006. Total globalsales of agrichemicals were estimated to be worth US $41bn in CY2008. Sales of patentedproduct constituted approximately 1/3rd of the total and another 1/3rd is proprietary off patent(Patent of molecule has expired but no credible generic brand has been able to garner significantmarketshare from patented brand). Opportunity of even 10% of the total market size wouldtranslate into US $4bn. Hence, RAIL plans to selectively target this opportunity by supplying AIto the industry top players. Overall, RAIL is targeting cumulative Revenues of Rs1,000cr overthe next five years from this Segment alone.

Targeting niche high-Margin Agrichemicals

Agrichemicals being crop specific have varying demand based on the specific type of pest thathampers growth of the crop. Hence, one crop might need different type of insecticides or fungicideor herbicide in different regions. In addition, there are many crops that are grown in very specificregions and may require less amount of agrichemicals which may not be economical to produceand profitable to sell to the big global players. Therefore, the smaller regional players very oftendominate these niche segments. RAIL plans to meet the requirements of such niche demand,as it commands higher Margin.

Setting up new plant for CM

RAIL is setting up a new plant at Dahej for manufacturing AI for the export market as well as tomeet its own formulation consumption. Total capex of the Dahej plant is estimated at Rs150cr.The company has already incurred Rs40cr in FY2009. The plant is likely to be up and ready byJune 2010. The plant will enjoy SEZ status and avail tax exemptions. We expect this plant tocontribute Rs450cr to the company's Total Sales at peak capacity utilisation.

Formulation Exports - Still at investment stage

The company sells formulations under its own brand name post registration in the respectivecountries. Currently, the company sells its formulations in almost 25 different countries acrossthe world in regions like Latin American, USA, Japan, South East Asia, Australia and Africa.Registration and distribution network are the key requirements for this business. In line withthis, the company has tied up with local distributors for the supply of its product. However, webelieve that this business is still at the investment stage as the company is building its productportfolio through registrations, branding and network tie-ups. Nonetheless, we believe that exportformulation will be the next growth driver for the company post CM. We expect sustainablecontribution from this business to start trickling over the next 2-3 years. We believe that RAILmight acquire a company with a strong distribution network to meet its targets in the Segment.However, this seems sometime away as it is still in the process of building its product portfolio.

Hidden Gems

Advinus Therapeutics

During 2005, the company transferred its Knowledge Services Business, a Research &Development Centre at Bangalore to Advinus Therapeutics Pvt Ltd for a consideration of Rs26cr.Advinus is India's finest Clinical Research Organisation (CRO) involved in business of New DrugDiscovery (Pharma & Agriculture) and clinical trials. The company is the first of its kind in Indiato offer end-to-end development services to the global Pharma, Agro and Biotech industries.Advinus was named as India's best emerging CRO in drug discovery services, according to asurvey conducted by Proximare, a management consulting firm based in New Jersey thatexclusively serves pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies with strategic issues. Webelieve Advinus has one of the best management teams in place to capitalise on the R&Doutsourcing opportunity.

The Tata group is a major shareholder in Advinus while RAIL holds 15% stake in it while thecompany management holds minority stake. As per media reports, Advinus Revenues are in theregion of Rs80-100cr, while total investment are estimated at around Rs200cr. Advinus iscurrently loss making and under investment mode. RAIL does not plan to sell its stake as itconsiders it as a strategic investment. We have not taken any value of Advinus in our valuationof Rallis however any developments on this front would have ripple effects on Rallis.

Real Estate

RAIL has considerable amount of surplus real estate that it can divest if the need arises. Thecompany in the past had sold real estate to raise funds for its core business. As per mediareports, the company currently has excess land of 85 acres in Hyderabad and 22 acres inThane, Maharashtra. We have conservatively estimated value of the same in the region ofRs300-400cr translating into Rs250-334 per share. Our valuations are in line with the historicdeal done by RAIL wherein it had sold 31 acre property at Hyderabad for Rs90cr to Peninsula inFY2008. We have not factored any value of Real Estate in our valuation.

Miscellaneous

RAIL derives a small amount (3% of Total Revenues) of revenue through sale of seeds, plantnutrients and leather chemical. In case of its Seeds business, the company markets hybrid,high yielding and genetic modified seeds of different crops (Bt Cotton, Wheat, Paddy, etc). RAILalso has a small presence in the Leather Chemical business through its brand Vegtan for theTannery Industry. Vegtan holds 45% marketshare in the domestic market.

Financial Performance

Revenues to post moderate yoy growth

Notably, in FY2009, RAIL logged one of its best performances in the current decade driven bystrong Exports that led to Total Sales growth of 24% to Rs837cr. Overall, RAIL logged 16.5%CAGR in Total Sales over FY2007-09, wherein Exports posted a CAGR of 36.8% over thementioned period. Going ahead, we expect the company's Total Revenues to post moderateCAGR of 14% over FY2009-11E on the back of 17.7% growth in Exports. We estimate RAIL’sExport to receive a major leg up once its new plant at Dahej comes on stream in June 2010.

Profitability to improve marginally

RAIL improved its Profitability substantially during FY2007-09. EBITDA posted a CAGR of 187.5%over FY2007-09 as EBITDA Margins improved from 2.2% in FY2007 to touch an all-time high of13.3% in FY2009 on the back of strong pricing power. We expect RAIL to further improve itsEBITDA Margins to 14% and 15.1% in FY2010E and FY2011E respectively, due to continuingbenefits of its restructuring exercise. We believe our EBITDA Margins are achievableconsidering that peer, Nagarjuna Agrichem, posted 19.2% EBITDA Margins in FY2009. Weestimate EBITDA to register a CAGR of 21.7% over FY2009-11E compared to Sales CAGR of14% over same period.

RAIL's Net Profit registered sluggish CAGR of 12.4% over FY2007-09 primarily due to the risingTax outflow owing to reducing carry forward Losses. However, going ahead, we estimate thecompany's Net Profit to almost mirror EBITDA growth and post a CAGR of 24.3% overFY2009-11E.

Stabilising Debt:Equity ratio

Post restructuring, RAIL was able to trim down its Debt-to-Equity ratio from 6.1x in FY2003 to2x in FY2004. Thus, FY2004 onwards the company's debt levels have been on a declining trendtouching an all-time low of 0.2x in FY2008. Nonetheless, we estimate the Debt-to-Equity ratioto see a spike to 0.6x in FY2010. Key reasons for increase in the Debt-to-Equity include:

1) Redemption of Preference shares to the tune of Rs88cr; and

2) Capex of Rs150cr being incurred for the new manufacturing unit at Dahej

Return Ratios set to improve

The company’s RoE soared to 45.2% in FY2008 on the back of exceptionally high OtherIncome arising from sale of assets. In FY2009, the company recorded RoE of 19.6% on theback of expansion in EBITDA Margins. Going ahead, we estimate the company to furtherimprove its RoE to 21.9% and 26.7% in FY2010 and FY2011E respectively, following animprovement in EBITDA Margins due to continuing benefits of restructuring.

Downside risks to our call

Growth challenge in Exports: If the company is unable to meet our export target due to anyunforeseen external factors, the company may post dismal performance and pose a downsiderisk to our estimates.

Vagaries of Monsoon: Agrichemicals are the last input in any agricultural operation andprotect the final output ie. crop. In case of India, most of the agricultural production is rain fedand hence highly dependent on monsoon. Hence, vagaries in season could affect the demandfor agrichemicals and in turn impact our estimates.

Outlook and Valuation

The Agriculture Sector has seen rejuvenation of government interest since the past couple ofyears. Food security is also top priority for the government while reduction in food loss is one ofthe easiest ways to boost food production. Usage of Pesticides or agrichemicals can reducethe loss of food production. However, consumption of agrichemicals has been restricted to therich farmers. Hence, to increase and eliminate the disparity in agrichem consumption, thegovernment has been making concerted efforts to make the farmers aware of the benefits (higherincome) of using agrichemicals apart from enhancing allocation to schemes like RashtriyaKrishi Vikas Yojana.

We believe that RAIL is well placed to capitalise on these emerging opportunities. Besides, thecompany had also undertaken a restructuring exercise post FY2004, which resulted in it clockingall-time high EBITDA Margins in FY2009. Going ahead, we expect Contract Manufacturing todrive the company's next level of growth particularly with its new plant coming on stream byJune 2010. We also expect the company to register steady CAGR of 17.7% in Exports overFY2009-11E. Overall, we estimate RAIL to register a CAGR of 14% and 24.3% in Net Sales andProfit over FY2009-11E, respectively.

On the valuation front, at Rs735, the stock is trading at 8.9x FY2011E Earnings and 5.4xFY2011E EV/EBITDA. Historically, RAIL has traded in the 3-11x one-year forward PE band, andat an average 8x over the last couple of years. Going ahead, on account of improving ReturnRatios and higher Net Profit growth, we expect the stock to trade at higher valuations than itshistorical average. We Initiate Coverage on the stock with an Accumulate rating andTarget Price of Rs796.

Industry Overview

Agrichemicals also known as Pesticides are substance or mixture of substances that are usedto avert, destroy or control any kind of pests or unwanted type of plants or animals that causeharm to crops or hampers the normal growth process of a crop. As per a Government of Indiaestimate of 2002, value of crop losses caused due to non-usage of pesticides was aroundRs90,000cr. Thereon, assuming losses grew at an average 2%, total losses would have amountedto Rs101,355cr in FY2009, a staggering 2.2% of India's GDP. Pesticides are the last input inany agricultural operation, which protects all the other inputs as significant investment arealready committed by then.

Size

Global Agrichemical industry has grown at an average 7.1% over CY2001-08 to US $41.7bn.For CY2008, the industry registered outstanding growth of 25% yoy on the back of volumegrowth and increase in price. On the other hand, the Indian Agrichemical Industry wasestimated at around US $1bn (Rs5,000cr) at the end of FY2009. In FY2009, overall industrywitnessed marginal volume decline, but saw a price increase of 10-12%.

Agrichemicals

India's consumption of agrichemical is one of the lowest in the world, standing at 0.48kg perhectare. This compares very poorly with other countries that have less arable land undercoverage. For instance, countries like Taiwan, Japan, Holland and Korea have higher consumptionthan India. We believe this again highlights the under usage of agrichemicals by Indian farmersand unexploited opportunity at bay for the agrichemical companies. India produces approximately16% of the world's total food grain production and uses only around 2% of pesticides. Lowconsumption can be attributed to: a) fragmented land holdings, b) low level of irrigation, c) highdependence on monsoons and d) low awareness among farmers about the benefits of usingpesticides.

In India, Andhra Pradesh (AP) is the single largest consumer of pesticides, with a total share ofaround 22%. Including AP, eight states consume 83% of total agrochemical sold in India. If onecompares the consumption pattern of CY2006 with CY2001, contribution from other states hasdeclined from 19% to 17%, meaning usages has increased in existing states while other statesremain unexploited.

India's consumption ofagrichemical is one of thelowest in the world at0.48kg/ha

Key Markets and Consumption

North America, with a share of 26% in total consumption, is the largest consumer of agrichemicalsglobally. The Asia-Pacific and EU regions consume almost the same amount of agrichemicals.

In case of India'sAgrichemical market, insecticides constitute the largest share at 67% compared to the globalconsumption of 33%. Globally, herbicides constitute the largest consuming agrichemical with ashare of 45%. We believe dichotomy in higher consumption of insecticides in India is due tolower labour cost that replaces use of herbicides and due to the tropical climate.

Key consuming crops

Rice is the largest consumer of total pesticides followed by Cotton. Cotton used to be thelargest consumer, but introduction of Bt Cotton in the Indian market had reduced dependenceon agrichemicals for crop protection. However, in recent times, a new pest has been plaguingthe Bt Cotton crop, which has in turn benefited the Agrichemical industry.

Competition and Players

Globally, six major innovators control 75% of the total market, while 4-5 generic players control10% and the balance 15% is controlled by hundreds of small regional players.

Key opportunities and challenges for industry

Low penetration of pesticides - Estimated size of the Indian economy is US $1trn of whichAgriculture accounts for 18%. The Agrichemical industry's size is estimated at US $1bn(Rs5,000cr) i.e. 0.1% of the country's total GDP and 0.6% of Agriculture GDP. Meanwhile, thesubsidy burden of urea for FY2009 is estimated at US $21.2bn or 2% of the total GDP and 12%of agriculture GDP. We believe this demonstrate the gross under penetration of agrichemicaland the opportunity that is available to the companies in the Sector.

Off patent proprietary: Global Agrichemical companies have been reducing manufacturingcapacity of low-value off patent proprietary products (ie. patent of molecule has expired, but nocredible generic brand has been able to garner significant marketshare from the patented brand).BASF has cut its range of AI from 300 in 2001 to 130 in 2006. Syngenta has reduced its portfoliofrom 120 to 80. Bayer CropScience reduced its portfolio by 29 actives between 2000 and 2006.Most of these off patent products are outsourced to third party manufacturer. Approximately,1/3rd of the total agrichemical sales are estimated to be that of proprietary off patent.

Diversification of manufacturing base: China has come to be known as factory of the worldand this fact remains the same for agrichemicals. However, to diversify risks arising out of singlelocation manufacturing base, many MNCs have been looking at other countries. Here, theIndian agrichemical manufacturers can position themselves as suitable alternatives to theirChinese counterparts.

Biotech seeds threat to agrichemicals: Scientific research has come up with seeds thathave self-immunity towards natural adversaries. This can be a potential threat to the business ofagrichemicals. Best example of such an introduction in the Indian market is "Bt Cotton", whichresulted in a decline in the consumption of agrichemicals by cotton crop. However, off late therehave been few reports of Bt Cotton unable to develop immunity towards new type of pests.

Patent expiry of molecules: Agrichemicals are protected by patents to encourage innovationakin to the Pharmaceutical industry. Going ahead, many molecules are likely to go off patentthrowing the market open for generic players. As per estimates, total likely available opportunitythrough patent expiry stands at US $3.6bn.
