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.
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-
20E to | 988.3 crore in FY20E (| 771.2 crore in FY18). We expect sales
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.
