India Defence Sector
Here come the champions
INDIA | Sector Initiation
27 March 2018
In this report we highlight four government owned defence companies that are national champions in their respective domains. We expect these companies to thrive irrespective of upcoming risk from the private sector. Their domain expertise, investments in R&D and a robust pipeline of projects will help them stave off competition. We reiterate our BUY rating on Bharat Electronics (BEL) and initiate coverage on Hindustan Aeronautics (HAL), Cochin Shipyard (CSL) with BUY ratings and on Bharat Dynamics (BDL) with a Neutral. Profile of our coverage list BEL is India’s leading defence electronics company with presence in Radars, Surface to Air Missiles, Avionics, Strategic communication and Electro optics. HAL is India’s sole fighter aircraft and helicopter manufacturer with experience in both Western and Russian origin platforms. BDL is India’s only Anti Tank Guided missile and Surface to Air missile manufacturer. CSL is the most efficient government shipyard, which is building India’s first indigenous aircraft carrier and is India’s largest public shipyard by capacity and has a largest market share in domestic ship repairs. $ 80bn of opportunities within touching distance The top down thesis of India’s need to grow defence spending and resort to import substitution is well documented and we will not be dwelling on that in this report. Instead we forecast a bottom up derived opportunity pipeline of US$ 80bn spread over a five to ten year period for our coverage against their cumulative FY18E revenues of just $ 5.5bn. Projects in the pipeline are for products already developed or transfer of technology from foreign OEM’s, hence the tangibility of these orders is high. HAL accounts for bulk of the opportunities at $ 43bn, followed by BEL ($ 26bn), BDL ($ 8bn) and CSL ($ 3bn). Risk of competition is low We believe that the level of system maturity required to stabilize complex defence products such as aircrafts, radars and missiles is still nascent in the private sector and will take time to ramp up. Hence we see limited threat of competition from the private sector on our coverage companies. We believe HAL, BEL and BDL are most immune from competitive pressures while CSL would face high competition to secure its project pipeline. Would margins pay the price for long term revenue visibility? We think not While we acknowledge that EBITDA margins of all the four companies under coverage are at cyclical highs and in the near term could see downside risks on account of adverse sales mix or higher employee cost. However, we clearly do not see a challenge in retaining their organic margins on their core products due to efficiencies developed over years. From FY20 we expect margins to expand for BEL and HAL and from FY22 for BDL. In case of CSL higher share of cost plus revenues on the IAC may suppress the positives of growing high margins ship repair business until FY22. Attractive valuations + robust order pipeline + cash generation = ripe for re-rating After the recent stock price correction in BEL (-23% in 3M) and CSL (-12%) valuations now price in the near term headwinds of adverse sales mix and its impact on margins. However, they do not reflect emerging positives of strong order inflows (for BEL and CSL) and margin recovery (in BEL). At its IPO price HAL trades at 18x PE FY20E, inline with global peers, for a higher earnings growth (17% CAGR in FY18-22) and a robust order pipeline. BDL trades 13x PE FY20E which adequately captures the near term risk of earnings decline (FY18-21) and back ended order inflow. The key rerating catalysts for all companies would be realization of order inflows and margin recovery and strong growth capital generation.

Bharat Electronics (BHE IN)
Thesis intact; will help ride through short-term dissonance
INDIA | CAPITAL GOODS | Company Update
27 March 2018
Order inflows to pick up after a lacklustre FY18 We expect BEL’s order inflows to pick up in the next 12 months, as much-delayed projects are awarded after a poor show in FY18 (-30% yoy). We now expect BEL to win Rs 210bn of orders in FY19 against our earlier estimate Rs 170bn. Based on our interactions with the company, Akash (seven squadrons) and LRSAM (seven ships) orders should be awarded in 1HFY19. In addition, relatively smaller projects, such as electronic warfare suites, commander sights, and night vision devices, should also flow through in FY19. Long-term order opportunity continues to build Our list of long-term order opportunities for BEL (over the next 10 years) has now swelled to US$ 26bn vs. US$ 24bn at the start of FY18. Large projects such as DFCC for LCA Mark 1A and CIWS for IAF have led to a majority of the increase. Order book will continue to accrue until FY22 Based on our estimates of yearly phasing of the opportunities listed above, we believe BEL’s order book should easily continue to accrue until FY22. We expect BEL’s order book to increase by 75% from Rs 409bn in FY18 to Rs 710bn in FY22, still providing a robust 4.8x book-to-bill even in FY22. Pace of execution to help sustain 12% CAGR in revenues We expect BEL’s current order book to support a 12% CAGR in FY18-20 revenues. We additionally derive confidence on our revenue estimates through a bottom-up project-wise revenue estimation for large projects in BEL’s order book. Near-term margins could be lower due to fast-paced execution of EVM order Over the next three quarters, we expect BEL’s margins to have downside risk due to the fast-tracked execution of EVM/VVPAT orders (Rs 30bn). These are fixed-price contracts to be executed by 2QFY19 and BEL should ideally derive operating leverage benefits. However, upfront investment in testing lines due to increased size of the project coupled with unfavourable payment terms should impact profitability. This in turn would drag company-wide margins, particularly in 1HFY19, as this order should account for 35-40% of 1H revenues. However, margins should revert to 19% in FY20 After the completion of the EVM order in 1HFY19, we expect the sales mix to improve. Though share of revenues from integration projects such as IACCS and LRSAM will be higher in overall revenues vs. FY17, their impact on margins has already been built into our estimates. Our FY20 EBITDA margin estimate (19%) implies a 300bps contraction compared to the FY17 cyclical high margins but should be higher than FY19 margin of 18.5%. Recent price correction factors in lower FY19 margins and loss of scarcity premium BEL’s stock price has corrected by 26% in 3 months, and we believe that it now adequately prices-in the impact of the EVM order on FY19 margins and loss of scarcity premium that BEL used to enjoy (being the only pure-play listed defence company). Though we argue that listing of other defence PSUs (HAL and BDL) should not impact BEL’s standing, since it provides a linear visibility in order inflows and revenues, which is not the case for both HAL and BDL, and should generate Rs 22bn of growth capital over FY18-20 with 19% ROE. Maintain BUY with revised target price of Rs 190 We maintain our Buy rating with a revised target of Rs 190 (earlier Rs 200). We base our target price on 25x FY20 PE. BEL is our top pick within our coverage. We have cut our FY19/20 estimates by 8%/5% respectively to factor in lower margins.

Hindustan Aeronautics (HNAL IN)
No risk of a ‘dog fight’ – open skies ahead. BUY INDIA | DEFENCE | INITIATING COVERAGE
27 March 2018
We initiate coverage on Hindustan Aeronautics (HAL), a government-owned enterprise engaged in the manufacturing and overhauling of fighter aircrafts, helicopters, and avionics, with a BUY rating and a target price of Rs 1,470. HAL is currently India's only fighter-aircraft manufacturer. As of December 2017, it had an order book of Rs 685bn, implying a book-to-bill of 3.9x FY17 revenues. Over FY18-22, we expect HAL to report a strong 17% CAGR in earnings, and generate Rs 64bn of growth capital. Lastly, HAL is backed by a robust order inflow opportunity of US$ 43bn over the next ten years. About Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd (HAL) Incorporated in 1963, HAL is a government-owned defence company with 'Navratna' status. It designs, develops, and manufactures aircrafts, helicopters, aero-engines, avionics, accessories, and aerospace structures. It is also provides upgrading, maintenance, and repair and overhaul (ROH) services.
Key investment arguments Over time, HAL has developed strong moats in terms of design and development capabilities (R&D expenditure at 7% of revenues), deep knowledge of both Russian- and Western-origin fighter-aircraft platforms, and an ability to provide low-cost life-cycle support. These strengths would deter competition from the private sector in the long term. In addition, a US$ 43bn opportunity pipeline for products that it has already developed, provides sustainable visibility of order inflows and revenues. After a decline in FY18, operating profitability should improve led by benefits from cost savings on raw materials for the light-combat aircraft (LCA) program, coupled with increasing share of ROH revenues – to 39% in FY21 from 30% of sales in FY17. Lastly, over FY18-22, we expect HAL to generate Rs 64bn of growth capital (residual cash flow after capex and dividend, but excluding working capital). Key risks Paucity of government funds could delay awards of large projects such as the Rs 600bn LCA Mark1A project. In addition, long gestation timelines increase risk of liquidated damages. Higher than expected provisioning for liquidated damages could negate our margin expansion thesis. Initiate coverage with a BUY rating and target price of Rs 1,470 We believe that the following factors should lead to a rerating – (1) visibility on HAL’s ability to grow earnings despite low revenue growth, (2) catalysts such as actual placement of the Rs 600bn LCA Mark 1A order, (3) visibility on follow on orders for LCA, and (4) higher-than-expected EBITDA margin expansion.
We advise investors to take a five-year view on HAL, mainly because: (1) it is an aircraft manufacturer whose order-award timelines and execution are spread over 10-15 years, and (2) the true return profile of these projects will be seen over a five-year block, which is the usual time taken to stabilise production of an aircraft and reap size benefits. Therefore, in all our financial analysis, we have based our comments on the time horizon FY18-22, over which period HAL’s earnings CAGR should be 17% and it should generate Rs 64bn of growth capital. Our confidence on HAL’s ability to deliver long-term steady growth in operating earnings stems past track record - its revenue and EBITDA have grown at 12% CAGR over FY96-17.
At the higher end of its IPO price band of Rs 1,240, HAL trades at an FY20 PE of 18x. We value HAL at 21x FY20 PE to arrive at our target price of Rs 1,470. Our target PE is at a 20% premium to global peers, given HAL’s strong order visibility over the next ten years, coupled with earnings growth. Due to the long gestation cycles in the aerospace industry, we also support our valuation with a DCF-based target price.

US$ 43bn opportunity over 10 years...for products already developed Based on our estimates, HAL has a US$ 43bn (Rs 2,780bn) pipeline of orders over the next ten years for products that it has already developed. Our estimates exclude any orders for Su-30 upgrade, HTT-40 (basic trainer), and intermediate jet trainer (IJT), which only add to the opportunity list once there is greater clarity on these programs. The overarching demand driver for fighter aircrafts is India’s depleting fleet of squadrons, which currently stands at 31 against the desired 42. MIG’s (21 and 27), which currently account for 40% of India’s fighter aircraft fleet, will be fully phased out of active service by 2025, and will have to be mostly replaced with single-engine fighter aircrafts such as LCA Tejas. In the helicopter segment, HAL has clear visibility for ALH, LCH, LUH, and Kamov. More than 1,300 helicopters are required by India in the 3- and 5-tonne segments.

Limited threat of competition in its area of competence
We believe that capabilities developed by HAL over the past five decades will keep it ahead of the domestic private sector, which is nowhere close to achieving that kind of knowhow in aircraft manufacturing, assembly, and overhaul.
HAL has been involved in manufacturing both Russian- and Western-origin fighter aircraft platforms, which gives it a unique advantage that new entrants from the private sector are unlikely to achieve.

Where do HAL’s competencies lie? 3-5 tonne helicopter segment: HAL’s home turf HAL is the leader in the 5-tonne helicopter category, with almost a 100% market share across all three forces, with ALH-Dhruv and Rudra variants. Additionally, with its new light-utility helicopter (LUH) and its joint venture with Russian helicopters to locally manufacture the Kamov 226T, HAL will take the lead in the three-tonne helicopter segment. LUH and Kamov will replace India’s aged fleet of Chetak and Cheetah. LCA Tejas: Building a fighter aircraft ground up HAL’s involvement in the LCA is majorly in manufacture and assembly. However, it has also participated with the Aeronautical Development Agency (ADA) in designing the aircraft. Learning’s from the LCA will be a template for HAL to replicate in future indigenous programmes such as the AMCA (Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft). Sukhoi-30 MKI: Twin-engine aircraft in the +30 tonne category Even though Su-30 is a ToT project, in phase-6 manufacturing, HAL has built the plane right from the raw material stage, thereby giving it a deep knowledge of manufacturing a twin-engine heavyweight fighter aircraft.

Repair and overhaul Having delivered about 600 aircrafts in the past 10 years, HAL has developed a strong repair and overhaul business, which overhauls about 200 aircrafts and helicopters p.a.; it contributed 30% to its FY17 revenues in addition to the sale of spares. In terms of capabilities, HAL pulls apart a plane or helicopter, and repairs and overhauls the airframe, engine, and every part of the plane that undergoes active wear and tear.
HAL's own (produced) aircrafts and helicopters account for a significant portion of the fleets of the Indian defence forces. It supports around 75% of the Air-Force’s fleets, 66% of the Navy’s, and 100% of both Army and Coast-Guards fleets.

Strong in-house design and development capabilities HAL has eleven dedicated R&D centres, which are capable of developing a wide range of products, upgrading them, and maintaining a pipeline of products to meet future needs. Also, it has two trademarks, seven patents, 11 design registrations, and 77 copyrights. Its board has mandated 10% of HAL's operating net profit for company-funded R&D expenditure. HAL is currently pursuing the design, development, and production of the LCH, LUH, Intermediate Jet Trainer (IJT), HTT-40 basic trainer aircraft, and a mini UAV. Additional opportunities include co-development programmes such as Fifth Generation Fighter Aircraft (FGFA) and research, design, and development of the HTFE-25 and HTSE-1200 engines. HAL’s consistent investment in R&D (~7% of revenues) helps it deploy funds in building a pipeline of future projects. Helicopters such as ALH, LCH and LUH are some of the products that it has developed. In FY17 alone, HAL achieved the following R&D milestones:
First flight of basic trainer aircraft (HTT-40)
First flight of light utility helicopter (LUH)
Full operational capability (FOC) for upgraded Mirage 2000
FOC for advanced jet trainer Hawk-i

Going back to its roots...focus on design, development, and assembly
In its early years of inception (1950 to the 1960s) HAL’s focus was on the indigenous design and development of aircrafts. This led to development of programs such as the HT-2 trainer, HF-24 jet fighter (Marut), and HJT-16 basic jet trainer (Kiran). However, from mid 1960s until 1980, with the license production of MIG-21, followed by Chetak and Cheetah helicopters, HAL’s focus shifted to technology-transfer projects that led to an increasing manufacturing footprint into the lowest component manufacturing. Since the 1990s, with the LCA and ALH programs gaining momentum, HAL began to focus on indigenous design and development. With the LCA Mark 1A, HAL will transition to the role of an assembler, as it has outsourced manufacturing almost 75% of the LRUs. Key suppliers for the LCA Mark 1A program are:
Wings: Larsen & Toubro
Central fuselage: VEM Technologies
Rear fuselage: Alpha Tocol
Front fuselage: Dynamatic Technologies

Service revenues to grow to 39% of sales in FY21 from 30% in FY17
Based on our interactions with industry experts, we gather that typically the capital cost of an aircraft accounts for less than 1/3
rd of its lifecycle cost. Hence, overhaul
and repairs over the life of an aircraft (usually 30-40 years) would entail 2x the capex over the capital cost of an aircraft. For programs such as Su-30, where HAL manages end-to-end repairs, it derives three revenue lines viz. 1. Airframe overhaul: Typically done after an aircraft completes 1500-2000 hours
of fly time. 2. Engine overhaul: Also after 1500-2000 hours of fly time and 3. Rotable spares: LRUs that have seen wear-and-tear before the mandated hours
of fly time.
Repair and overhaul revenue mix: HAL overhauled 197 aircrafts/helicopters and 473 engines in FY17
Source: RHP, PhillipCapital India Research
We expect HAL’s repair and overhaul revenues to increase to 39% in FY21 from 30% of total sales in FY17, driven by increased volumes from Su-30 repair programme. We believe ROH revenues should also entail higher margins since HAL amortises the fixed asset cost alongwith its normal man-hour rates to bill for ROH.
Expect ‘repair and overhaul’ revenues share to increase to 39%
Source: RHP, PhillipCapital India Research
Additionally, HAL has recently decided to increase its scope in overhaul and has started to undertake responsibility for performance-based logistic (PBL), which includes guaranteeing the readiness (uptime), and performance objectives of the aircraft. HAL recently signed its first contract for PBL with the Indian Coast Guard to manage 16 ALH Dhruv. Depending on its experience with the Coast Guard order, HAL will consider implementing PBL across other repair contracts as well. PBL should offer

higher profitability, given that the risk of uptime of the asset would now move to HAL from the client.
We forecast 17% CAGR in FY18-22 earnings with improving quality HAL’s revenues should see 10% CAGR over FY18-22 driven by a growing share of service revenues and a pick up in the execution rate of LCAs even as the Su-30 program come to an end in FY20. Higher proportion of service revenues coupled with higher non ToT products on its manufacturing line should expand EBITDA margins by ~330bps over FY18-22 leading to a 16% EBITDA CAGR. In addition, the quality of earnings should improve as other income as a % of earnings declines to 26% in FY22 from 57% in FY13. Consequently, we expect HAL’s recurring earnings CAGR at 17%, though earnings could decline in FY21 because of the transition to manufacturing LCA-Tejas from Su-30.

We estimate HAL to generate Rs 64bn of operational cash flows (excluding the impact of working capital, which tends to be volatile due to addition/depletion of customer advances) and after accounting for capex and dividends over FY18-22 (operational cash flows were Rs 55.5bn over FY13-17).

Key risks
Lack of funds could delay order award timelines HAL depends primarily on a single customer – the Indian armed forces through the Ministry of Defence – which contributes more than 90% of its revenues. As growth in India’s capital defence budget has been a measly 2% in the past five years, there is limited headroom each year to place new orders; a majority of the budget (~84%) is set aside for meeting committed liabilities. With such a backdrop, we believe that awards of large projects (such as LCA Tejas Mark1A, Rs 500-600bn) could face delays, as it would imply Rs 50-60bn of customer advances to HAL. Our current estimates build in the LCA order in FY19, benefits of higher cash balances in FY20, and meaningful contribution to sales by FY22. Any deviation from these timelines would imply downside risks to our estimates.

High imports due to significant contribution from ToT (Transfer of Technology) products HAL is significantly dependent on imports for the supply of critical components and raw materials due to licensed production of aircrafts, particularly Sukhoi-30, which accounted for 44% of its FY17 sales. Imports formed 86% of its raw material cost in FY17. However, imports should decline from their peak in FY11 (95%) due to completion of the Hawk Mk 132 program and with the completion of the Su-30 program in FY20.
Higher share of imported material due to dependence on ToT products
Source: RHP, PhillipCapital India Research
Long gestation cycle of defence contracts Typically, HAL receives large contracts from the Indian defence forces for manufacturing aircrafts and helicopters at a fixed price. These contracts are generally executable over a longer period, and hence, they are prone to various execution-related risks such as delays in technology absorption (Su-30 MKI) and production stabilization (LCAs).
Delay in execution may lead to liquidated damages HAL has provided/booked Rs 26.5bn of liquidated damages due to delayed deliveries since many of its contracts are fixed-price. For example, it provided Rs 11bn in FY15 for an ‘onerous contract’ on account of cost overruns due to delay in the delivery of 140 Sukhoi-30 (Block-IV) aircrafts. The schedule of delivery under the contract was FY13 to FY15; it is now expected to be delivered over FY18-20. Meeting timelines of delivery is hence essential to avoid large punitive levies by the end customer.

Our take on issues specific to HAL How should one analyse HAL’s cash? In FY17, HAL had a net cash of Rs 102bn, equivalent to 70% of its capital employed, or Rs 305/share. This may look high, and could prompt many investors to value the cash separately. However, we believe that a bulk of the reported cash balance is basically un-deployed advances from customers. Majority of the net cash flow generated by HAL in the past five years (~Rs 55bn) has been repatriated to the government in the form of share buy backs (Rs 61bn). Hence, we choose not to value cash per share separately, while we do acknowledge that our PE-based valuation does include impact of interest income generated on un-deployed advances on PAT. This, we believe, is part of the business model of defence PSUs, as MOD includes interest income in its margin assumptions while placing an order on defence PSUs.
65-70% of gross customers’ advances pertain to inventory, special tools, and various other receivables...

No trend that links higher ROH revenues to higher gross margins - for a reason In order to back-test our thesis that increasing ROH revenues coupled with growing share of revenues from indigenous products lead to higher gross margins, we analysed data between FY10 and FY17, but the results were inconclusive. The reason for the benefits of higher ROH revenues not being visible in gross margins is on two counts
HAL has increased its provisions for liquidated damages from Rs 1.2bn to Rs 3bn between FY10-17; in FY15 it was even higher at Rs 7.3bn.
HAL is currently booking zero margins on the LCA Mark-1 as its cost of production is higher than the ASP. HAL has asked for a cost escalation which it expects should be approved by the government shortly.

In absence of these negatives (Rs 4-4.5bn annual drag on EBITDA in FY17-18) HAL’s profitability would adequately represent higher margins which would then correspond to increasing share of ROH sales.

Outlook and valuation
Initiate coverage with a BUY rating and target price Rs 1,470
We initiate coverage on HAL with a BUY rating and a PE-based target price of Rs 1,470. HAL is India’s only fighter aircraft and helicopter manufacturer; we expect it to maintain it near monopoly in these segments due to the strong moats that it has built over time in the form of:
Capabilities to design and develop aircrafts ground up,
Handling complex ToT projects of both Western and Russian origin, and
Its ability to offer life-cycle support over a prolonged period. In addition, we expect HAL to seamlessly transition from the ramp-down of Su-30 manufacturing and ramp up in the production of LCAs in FY21-22, also supported by a growing share of high-margin service revenues. This should help HAL’s earnings CAGR to touch 17% over FY18-22 (vs. an 11% decline over FY13-17). Lastly, HAL should generate strong growth capital of Rs 64bn over FY18-22, excluding the impact of customer advances, after accounting for capex and dividends.
Valuations: Ample scope for re-rating At the higher end of its IPO price band of Rs 1,240, HAL trades at 18x FY20 PE. We value HAL at 21x FY20 PE to arrive at our target price of Rs 1,470. Our target PE is at a 20% premium to global peers, given its strong visibility on orders over the next ten years, coupled with earnings growth. We believe that a rerating will be led by – (1) visibility on HAL’s ability to grow earnings despite low revenue growth, (2) catalysts such as actual placement of the Rs 600bn LCA Mark 1A order, (3) visibility on ‘follow on’ orders for LCAs, and (4) higher-than-expected EBITDA-margin expansion. Due to the long gestation cycles in the aerospace industry, we also support our valuation with DCF-based target price.
Long term is the only way to play HAL We advise investors to take a five-year view on HAL, which is more than the traditional two-year view that we typically take on stocks. This is mainly because: (1) HAL is the first aircraft manufacturer to list, and the timelines on order awards and execution are spread over 10 to 15 years, and (2) the true return profile of these projects are seen over a five year block, which is the usual time to stabilise production of an aircraft and derive size benefits. Hence, in all our financial analysis, we have based our comments on FY18-22 rather than FY18-20.

HAL vs. BEL vs. BDL vs. CSL With the recent IPOs of HAL, BDL (Bharat Dynamics), and Cochin Shipyard (CSL), investors have multiple avenues to play the defence theme in India. So far, BEL was the only pure play defence company. So comparisons between the three companies –HAL, BDL, and BEL – is inevitable, even though they each address completely distinct opportunities in the defence ecosystem.
Our take on this peer comparison is to BUY HAL, BEL and CSL while we have Neutral rating on BDL.
While we have detailed our rationale to BUY HAL, our thesis for BEL is also linked to the long-term visibility on new orders leading to linearity in revenues, aiding a 15% earnings growth over FY18-20. However, BEL could underperform in the near term, as it faces an adverse sales mix on execution of EVM orders, which would account for about 25% of its sales for the next three quarters. Hence, the surprise element on margins is limited in the near term.
In case of CSL we believe that execution of the IAC-1 will pick up pace over FY18-21. CSL is pursuing a intelligent geographic expansion in its ship repair segment that can potentially double its segment revenues over five years. Lastly, its efficient cost structure puts it at the top rank when compared to other defence shipyards of the government making it a contender for larger defence orders.
For BDL though, gains from new orders will be back-ended, while its near term earnings over FY18-21 should see -4% CAGR. Hence Neutral.

trainer aircraft. It is proposed to be used for stage II training of pilots. IJT has a cockpit with twin
tandem seats with good visibility for the pilots, modern active matrix liquid crystal displays and head-
up display. It is equipped with a mission computer and integrated avionics system. IJT has up to
1,000Kg of external stores carrying capacity which allows the fitment of various armaments and fuel
drop tanks on the aircraft for training.
Helicopters under development
Light Utility Helicopter (LUH)
LUH will be a single engine helicopter under development in the 3-tonne helicopter segment for the
IDS and will replace the fleet of Cheetah and Chetak helicopters. It is a lightweight helicopter with
design features to serve as a reconnaissance helicopter with high-end technology and to meet the
specific high altitude requirements.
Indian Multi Role Helicopter (IMRH)

Cochin Shipyard Ltd (COCHIN IN)
Keeping choppy waters at bay INDIA | DEFENCE | INITIATING COVERAGE
27 March 2018
We initiate coverage on Cochin Shipyard (CSL), a government-owned company engaged in ship building and ship-repair, with a BUY rating. With a cost efficient structure and a proactive management we expect CSL to be one of the prime beneficiaries of the future shipbuilding capex of the Indian Navy. In addition, CSL’s strategy to geographically diversify its ship repair business should help double its segment sales in five years. We expect CSL’s revenue/EBITDA to grow at 25%/18% CAGR over FY18-21E backed by a robust order book (4.1x revenues). Recent stock price correction makes CSL the cheapest stock amongst our defence coverage despite a strong growth outlook.
CSL is India’s largest public-sector shipyard by capacity CSL is the second-largest shipyard and the largest public-sector shipyard in India with a dock capacity to accommodate vessels up to 110,000 DWT. CSL also has the second-largest ship-repair capacity and largest among the public sector in India, which can accommodate vessels up to 125,000 DWT. Even though it is registered as a commercial shipyard, it derived 85% of its FY17 revenues from building/repairing defence ships. CSL is currently building India’s first Indigenous Aircraft Carrier (IAC-1) for the Indian Navy.
CSL is the most efficient amongst all government shipyards Due to its strategy to rely on contractual workforce rather than permanent employees, CSL is by far the most efficient shipyard amongst its public sector peers. Its employee cost accounted for 11% of revenues compared to 20%/31%/15%/22% for MDL/GRSE/GSL/HSL.
Geographical expansion to help double ship repair revenues in five years CSL is already the largest ship repair company in India by revenue (~40% market share). To further consolidate its leadership position CSL is embarking on a geographical expansion, which in our view should help it double its ship repair revenues in five years. Its recent arrangement with Mumbai Port Trust gives CSL access to service the western command ships of the Navy. Similarly it is looking to set up ship repair facilities in Kolkata, Andaman & Nicobar and per media reports even in Goa. This should allow CSL then to cater to the demand not only from commercial ships but also by the Indian Navy, which currently depends majorly on its own dockyards for ship repair.
Ship building should not just be about the IAC Even though IAC-1 will be a major revenue driver for CSL’s ship building segment over FY18-21, a robust pipeline of Rs 124bn in addition to Rs 58bn projects wherein CSL is the lowest bidder should also support its ship building business.
Expect strong 25%/18% CAGR in FY18-21E revenues/EBITDA We expect CSL’s revenues and EBITDA to grow by 25% and 18% respectively over FY18-21E driven by a 30% CAGR in ship building revenues. However earnings growth over this period will be a modest 12% due to declining other income as funds are deployed in capacity expansion projects. ROE’s should also be subdued on this count as revenues from its new capacities will be back ended.
Initiate coverage with a BUY rating and SOTP based target price of Rs 595 We initiate coverage on CSL with a BUY rating as we believe that over the next five years CSL will emerge from the shadows of just being seen as the ship yard that is building the IAC to a more diversified company. After the recent stock price correction, CSL trades at 13x FY20E, it is the cheapest stock amongst our defence coverage despite its healthy growth outlook. We derive our target price of Rs 595 by a sum of parts valuation. We value ship building at 14x PE FY20, a 30% premium to its regional peers. We assign a 25x PE to its annuity like ship repair business part of the premium is also to capture CSL’s expansion strategy in this segment.

Key investment arguments
Pace of execution on the IAC-1 to pick up Based on our interactions with the management we gather that the issue pertaining to non availability of aeronautical equipment is now resolved. As a result we expect pace of execution on the IAC-1 to pick up. We estimate revenues from the project to grow at 21% CAGR over FY18-21 vs. 10% over FY15-18 as CSL looks to deliver the ship by FY21 (we have built in delivery by March 2022). The outstanding order book on the project as of 9MFY18 was Rs 81.5bn (Rs 9bn fixed price + Rs 73bn cost plus). In addition, CSL will be awarded the phase-3 fixed price portion of the IAC (Rs 30bn) in FY19. This healthy orderbook of Rs 110bn should support the revenue growth.
IAC project revenues to register a strong 21% CAGR
Source: Company, PhillipCapital India Research
Ex-IAC pipeline is also robust in the near term... In the past six months investor concerns have partly been allayed as CSL has won Rs 58bn of orders that should provide revenue visibility beyond the IAC. In addition, based on our checks we have identified a Rs 124bn (US $ 1.9bn) of projects that should translate into a opportunity pipeline for CSL over the next two years. This should further ease concerns of revenue visibility.

Recent TPCR highlights long term opportunity pipeline from Navy In the recently published Technology Perspective and Capability Roadmap (TPCR-2018), which highlights the requirement of the Indian armed forces over the ten years, the Navy has identified a need for ~190 vessels of which 22 vessels have already been ordered based on our checks still leaving a strong pipeline. With its recent win to build eight Anti Submarine Warfare Corvettes (ASW), CSL should be a contender for future defence orders which until now was only restricted to the IAC-1.

Initial signs of IAC-2 emerging but still a long way to go
In the TPCR-2018 the Navy has also highlighted that it would require another aircraft carrier. This in a way is the initial acceptance that a IAC-2 would be required and should in a way address concerns of the need of the project at all. Though we do agree that the actual order for the IAC-2 still has a long way to go as the design and technology has not yet been selected. In addition the high cost of the platform (estimated ~Rs 500-600bn) would also be a near term deterrent given the limited headroom for new projects in the defence budget over the next few years.
JV with Hooghly docks to tap into the inland waterway opportunity
CSL has formed a joint venture with Hooghly Docks & Port Engineers, Kolkata to take over the operations at two of its (HDPE’s) facilities viz. Salkia and Nazirgunge. With this CSL will now be able to address opportunities for shipbuilding for the government’s inland waterways program. The JV would incur a capex of Rs 1-1.3bn to upgrade its facilities and should start yielding annual revenues of Rs 500mn from two years of start of operations.

Geographic diversification will help 2x ship repair revenues CSL ship repair revenues have grown at a 30% CAGR over FY12-17, accounting for 26% of CSL’s total revenues in FY17. CSL is a market leader in the domestic ship repair industry. Going forward CSL has adopted a strategy to increase its presence further with arrangements in Mumbai, Kolkata and Andaman & Nicobar and as per media reports could also expand to Gujarat and Goa. CSL is also adding new capacity at Cochin with the new International Ship Repair Facility (ISRF) which is likely to be commissioned by FY21. These initiatives in our view should help CSL double its ship repair revenues in five years.

Western command Navy and Coast Guard ship repair now a tangible opportunity
With its MOU with Mumbai Port Trust to utilise the Indira dock at Mumbai, CSL would now be within touching distance to service Western command naval ships. Until this arrangement CSL did not have access to this opportunity due to the distance between Mumbai and Kochi. CSL would have to invest on a floating dock to repair large naval vessels. Based on our interaction with the management of CSL, it expects this venture to generate Rs 2-2.5bn of revenues from year four of operations. It expects to commence operation in early FY19.
Eastern seaboard now on the horizon?
Currently, the Indian Navy currently has a fleet of 272 vessels (excluding Submarines) while the India coast guard has 152 ships and use services of its own dockyards in Mumbai, Karwar, Kochi, Vizag and Port Blair. They also use services of other government yards such as CSL, HSL and GSL to meet their repair requirements.
CSL is still lacking considerable presence on the eastern seaboard; this in our view would then help consolidate its position as a leading ship repair company. Currently Naval vessels use the facilities of HSL's and Indian Navy’s own yard in Vizag.
We believe that as CSL expands its reach and maintain its efficiency levels that it has achieved in its mother yard in Kochi, garnering incremental repair business from Navy will be relatively easy.

Efficient and cost-competitive compared to other public shipyards
CSL is able to execute projects efficiently due to its system of sub-contracting, which helps it in ship-repair projects and production planning. Against a full-time employee size of 1,824 (May 2017) it employs 612 contract employees and 3,178 daily sub-contract workers, which allows it to maintain a flexible work force. Its integrated structure (build yard and repair facilities in the same location) allows inter-changeability of employees, depending on workload on either business segments.
In our view, CSL is the most efficient shipyard among all public sector ones. We analysed its employee-cost intensity to revenues and gather that employee costs accounted for 11% of sales in FY17 vs. 20%/31%/15%/22% for MDL/GRSE/GSL/HSL. Also on the revenue per employee parameter, CSL ranks higher than all other shipyards at Rs 11.3mn vs. Rs 4.1/3.8/6.4/3.2mn for MDL/ GRSE/GSL/HSL. Its EBITDA margins are also better than the next public yard. Even compared to global listed shipyards, CSL’s margins are significantly higher than mean margins.

COCHIN SHIPYARD LTD INITIATING COVERAGE
Focuses on engineering heavy products The global ship building-industry is dominated by Asian shipyards in South Korea, Japan, and China due to their sheer size, government subsidies, and low interest costs to manage working capital. Asian shipyards accounted for 91% of global ship deliveries in CY15. This puts India at a disadvantage in bidding for large-sized ships such as VLCCs and LNG carriers.
However, the commercial shipping industry is in a prolonged downturn due to weak economic activity (mainly in China) and low oil prices. This has led to high competition among shipyards, leading to lower margins and even losses in some cases. As a result, CSL does not focus on aggressively bidding for standard commercial ships (bulk carriers or merchant vessels) but rather on engineering heavy products such as dredgers. This helps it to maintain high profitability, short construction timelines, and higher throughputs.
Robust revenue and EBITDA growth over FY18-21E
Backed by a 4.1x orderbook, pick up in execution of IAC-1 and steady growth in its ship repair sales we expect CSL’s revenues to grow at 25% CAGR over FY18-21E (vs. 7.5% FY14-18). Higher share of revenues from the cost plus contract on the IAC-1, should lead to a margin contraction of 330bps between FY18-21. Consequently, CSL’s EBITDA should grow at 18% CAGR (vs. 13% FY14-18), lower than the growth in revenues. Reported earnings growth would be impacted by lower other income due to utilizations of funds for capex as a result earnings growth would be relatively muted at 11.5% CAGR.

Key risks
Risk of stranded asset in case of delay or cancellation of IAC-2 CSL is investing Rs 18bn in building a new dry dock, in anticipation of the IAC-2, which due to its large size would not have fit in the existing dry dock where IAC-1 was built. This investment we believe is at risk of becoming a stranded asset until the IAC-2 is awarded to CSL. Though, CSL would look to utilise the new dock temporarily but the ROI would be minimal.
Over dependence on a single project (IAC) IAC forms a significant portion of CSL's current order book. This project has contributed 55% to company's revenues during FY13-17 and we expect it to contribute 53% of its FY18-21 revenues. A significant part of the contract is on a fixed-price basis. Consequently, any delays in execution and cost overruns may have a significant bearing on CSL’s profitability.
IAC continue to be the major contributor to CSL's revenues over FY18-21
Source: Company, PhillipCapital India Research
Variability in profitability due to long execution period in shipbuilding Most of CSL's contracts are fixed-price, and all costs are forecasted at the time of entering into the contracts. Typically, its contract periods vary (depending on the size of vessels) from 18 to 24 months for small ones, 20-36 months for medium vessels, and 40-72 months for large ones. Given, the long execution cycle of the contracts, any adverse movement in the costs brings a risk to profitability.
Increased competition due to opening up of defence shipbuilding to private sector
CSL faces competition from both domestic and global players (particularly from South Korea, Japan, and China). Due to recent policies, private companies have been allowed to bid for vessels used in defence-related projects. In a first, recently, the Indian Coast Guard awarded an order for a series of FPVs to a private shipyard.

Capacity expansion plans
CSL is the largest public sector shipyard by capacity
CSL has an existing ship building capacity of 110,000 DWT, the largest amongst public sector shipyards. The dry dock measures 255 x 42.9 x 9M and follows the Japanese system of construction using the Integrated Hull Outfit and Painting (IHOP) system. Currently the company can cater to Aframax-sized tankers (ranging from 80,000 to 120,000 DWT).
Integrated shipbuilding infrastructure at the shipyard allows CSL to undertake structural, machinery, and electrical design and to prepare detailed production engineering drawings. During the shipbuilding design process 3D hull, piping and electrical models are created, ensuring optimum, error-free ship designs.
Its ship repair yard is also the largest within the public sector with a capacity of 125,000 DWT with a 270 x 45 x 12M size.
CSL is India's 2nd largest shipyard and largest among public sector
...and also has the 2nd largest in ship repair facility

New dry dock: Getting ready for IAC-2? The new dry dock will enable the company to build larger ships (such as Suez-size vs. Aframax presently) by using the ‘stepped’ dry-dock method. This method enables longer vessels to fill the length of the dock and wider, shorter vessels and rigs to be built or repaired at the wider part. The company will be investing Rs 18bn to construct the new facility.
The new dry dock will enable CSL to…
Construct complex technology-intensive vessels such as LNG carriers, large dredgers, high-end research vessels etc.
Venture into the entire LNG vessel spectrum of the country soon.
Construct the second Indigenous Aircraft Carrier (IAC-2) of a much larger capacity than IAC-1 for the Indian Navy (national interest).
Building ‘Green Ships’ such as LNG carriers in the country.

ISRF: Increasing the throughput of a profitable business The new International Ship Repair Facility will allow the company to increase its repair throughput by 60-70% as it includes a ship-lift and transfer system. It will allow CSL to repair 72 additional ships in the new ISRF and an additional 12 in the new dry dock. CSL will spend Rs 10bn on the ISRF.

Outlook & Valuation
SOTP based target price of Rs 595 We use SOTP based valuation to arrive at our target price of Rs 595. We value CSL’s two primary businesses, i.e. Ship Building and Ship Repair, separately.
Our key assumptions to arrive at the respective segment earnings were
to allocate the other income to ship building segment since it is a beneficiary of long cycle customer advances.
Equally distributed unallocated expenses to both the segment and
allocated interest expenses to Ship repair.
Rationale for segment valuation Shipbuilding: We ascribe a target PE of 14x to our FY20 segment earnings. Our target multiple implies a 30% premium to its South East Asian peers due to CSL robust revenue visibility upto FY22, but at a 20% discount to the average PE of domestic defence companies such as BEL, HAL and BDL given a larger opportunity size for the latter.
Ship repair: We value CSL’s ship repair business at a 25x FY20 PE for its annuity kind of characteristics with higher margin profile. In addition our target multiple also tries to captures the efforts of the company to geographically diversify to garner a greater market share of the ship repair business in India.

Initiate coverage with BUY rating We initiate coverage on CSL with a BUY rating as we believe that over the next five years CSL will emerge from the shadows of just being seen as the ship yard that is building the IAC to a more diversified company.
CSL is by far the most efficient ship yard amongst its public sector peers. Its strategy to expand the reach of its high margin ship repair business should yield benefits over the next five years. A strong order book, which is 4.1x FY18 revenues should aid a 25%/18% revenue/EBITDA CAGR over FY18-21E.
After the recent stock price correction, CSL trades at 13x FY20E, it is the cheapest stock amongst our defence coverage despite its healthy growth outlook.
CSL currently trades at below -1SD of its one year forward PE

Business segments CSL has two major business segments: (1) Shipbuilding, which has contributed 82% of its revenues over the last five years (FY13-17), and (2) ship repair (18% of revenues). It caters to clients from the defence sector in India and clients from commercial sectors globally for shipbuilding and ship repair. Defence shipbuilding is a complex and time-consuming activity. While commercial shipbuilding is relatively less complex, it is subject to cyclical weaknesses. Over the last five years, CSL’s defence clients have contributed to 80% of its revenues and have helped the company to overcome cyclical fluctuations or weaknesses in commercial shipbuilding.
Shipbuilding contributed 82% of its last five years revenues…
...driven by 80% contribution from defence-sector clients
Source: Company, PhillipCapital India Research
Shipbuilding (82% of last five years’ revenues): CSL has begun its shipbuilding operations in 1975 and has transformed its capability from building bulk carriers to building smaller and more technically sophisticated vessels such as PSVs and AHTS’. It has built a wide range of vessels including bulk carriers, tankers, platform supply vessels (PSVs), anchor-handling tug-supply vessels (AHTSs), launch barges, tugs, passenger vessels, fast-patrol vessels (FPVs), and roll-on/roll-off (Ro-Ro) vessels. It has also worked with several leading technology firms including Rolls Royce Marine (Norway), and GTT (Gaztransport & Technigaz SA), which helped increase its credibility in international markets.
Defence shipbuilding: Indian Navy and Indian Coast Guard are its two clients from the defence sector. CSL is currently building India's first indigenous aircraft carrier (IAC-1) for the Indian Navy, which is a major contributor (79%) to its defence shipbuilding revenues. It has already completed phase-1 contract of IAC-1 and currently executing phase-2 contract. The phase-3 contract is yet to be signed, and as per CAG, the delivery of IAC-1 is likely to be completed by 2023. CSL has also completed the delivery of FPVs to the Indian Coast Guards. Defence has contributed 85% of its shipbuilding revenues in the last five years.
Commercial shipbuilding: CSL has derived 15% of its shipbuilding revenues in the last five years from this segment. Currently, it is constructing four passenger-cum-cargo vessels for the Andaman and Nicobar administration and a vessel for one of GoI's projects. It has delivered two of India's largest double-hull oil tankers to SCI. It has also exported 45 ships to various international clients such as NPCC, Clipper Group (Bahamas), Vroon Offshore (Netherlands), and SIGBA AS (Norway).

Ship repair (18% of last five years’ revenues): CSL started its ship-repair operations in 1978, and since then it has developed adequate capabilities to handle complex and sophisticated repair jobs. It has undertaken repairs of various types of vessels, including upgradation of ships for the oil-exploration industry and periodical maintenance, repairs, and life extension of ships. It has also partnered with Techcross Inc. for technical support, engineering, service support, and sharing of information in relation to the Ballast Water Treatment System (BWTS)’s products.
Defence ship repair: CSL undertakes ship repair for the Indian Navy. In FY14-16, it repaired about 15 naval ships with scope of work varying from routine to complex. It has also completed refits of INS Aditya, INS Sukanya, INS Shardul, INS Viraat, and INS Vikramaditya for the Indian Navy. It is the only commercial shipyard to have undertaken repair work of Indian Navy's aircraft carriers - INS Viraat and INS Vikramaditya.
Commercial ship repair: It has also undertaken major revamping and refurbishing of oil rigs in almost all major offshore vessels and rigs of ONGC, involving steel renewal, upgradation of drilling, cementing, mechanical, HVAC, and piping systems. It has MoUs with the Lakshadweep Development Corporation Ltd (LDCL), Directorate General of Lighthouses and Lightships (DGLL), and Dredging Corporation of India (DCI), to undertake ship-repair work on a bulk-volume basis. Key clients from the commercial sector include SCI, ONGC, and DCI.

Business segments’ outlook
Commercial shipbuilding Even as the global market for commercial ships is undergoing a prolonged downturn, the domestic-market outlook is buoyant. The government’s key initiatives should drive demand for small and midsized commercial ships. CSL is banking on the following to drive demand for ships in the domestic market:
Shipbuilding policy, 2015
Development of inland water ways
Sagarmala project
Make in India
Shipbuilding policy, 2015 The government approved the new shipbuilding policy in December 2015, granting financial assistance and infrastructure status to the industry. The government has set aside Rs 40bn to implement the scheme over the next 10 years. Key features of the policy include:
Granting infrastructure status to shipbuilding and ship-repair industry, making it entitled to various government incentives and tax benefits.
Financial assistance to both state-owned and private shipbuilders on each ship that they build, except for smaller boats and fishing vessels.
Financial assistance granted will be 20% of the lower of 'Contract Price' or the 'Fair Price' of vessel built commencing FY17 and will be reduced by 3% every three years.
Development of inland waterways Inland waterways account for only 3% of India’s total transport compared with about 9% in China, 8% in the USA, and 7% in the European Union. Inland-waterways transport is a viable alternative for existing modes of transportation, as it helps decongest these and results in fuel and cost savings. The government’s initiative to develop inland waterways is a big business opportunity for the Indian shipbuilding industry in the form of future orders for building dredgers and small bulk-carrier vessels. India has identified 111 inland waterways that will be developed progressively, depending on the financial viability of each project. The World Bank will fund 1,620kms National Waterway-1 on the Ganga from Haldia to Allahabad. Sagarmala project India’s Sagarmala project is expected to tackle underutilised ports by focusing on port modernisation, efficient evacuation, and coastal economic development. It will also complement the Golden Quadrilateral project and provide sea connectivity to major industrial centres. In the future, higher marine-transport activity will also lead to increased demand for commercial vessels. Notably, the project envisages setting up a shipbuilding and repair cluster. Make in India initiative Under the Make in India programme, Indian shipyards will have the right of first refusal for government purchases, implying that even if the shipyard is not the lowest bidder, an option is provided to the shipyard to match the lowest foreign bid and secure the contract. This is part of the New Shipbuilding Policy, 2015.

Defence shipbuilding Navy’s capital budget has seen 9% CAGR in the past 10 years... The CAGR for India’s allocation to the navy for capital expenditure has seen a decent pace of 9% in the past 10 years (FY09-19). …but the share in the total budget has largely been stagnant The navy’s share in the total capital budget, at 23% in FY19, is virtually the same as in FY09 (while the navy’s share did increase to 30% in FY12, it subsequently fell to current levels).

Huge deficit in navy’s vessel strength, based on its 2027 perspective plan Navy’s aspirational force strength, as per a 2012 directive of the Defence Acquisition Council, is 198 ships and submarines by 2027 against a current strength of 121 ships and 15 submarines. This leaves a gap of 62 vessels to be constructed and delivered in the next 10 years. Based on our checks, 42 vessels are under construction, still leaving a deficit of 20 ships. This, we believe, offers an efficient shipyard like CSL a very strong opportunity for future orders.

Ship repair: A potent opportunity Global ship-repair industry According to the Ministry of Shipping, the global ship-repair market is approximately US$ 12bn. Shipyards in Singapore, Bahrain, Dubai, and the Middle East account for a major share of this market. These locations have achieved a dominant position despite higher cost of ship-repair services compared with other Asian countries, largely due to the availability of a skilled workforce and latest technology, which allows these shipyards to attract demand from other low-cost locations like India, Malaysia, and Indonesia. Indian ship-repair industry Cochin Shipyard (39% revenue share of India’s ship repair industry in FY15) leads in ship repairs, followed by Goa Shipyard (20% revenue share in FY15). Private-sector shipyards in this segment include Sembmarine Kakinada, Larsen & Toubro, and ABG Shipyard.
CSL has the highest domestic market share in ship repair
Source: Company, PhillipCapital India Research
India’s strategic positional advantage and relatively low-cost structures makes it a viable option along the east-bound and west-bound international trade routes. Indian yards are also expected to benefit from the increasing strength of the Indian Navy along with the Coast Guard’s operational and support fleet, which will drive the repairs business. Moreover, higher indigenization in ships, for clients engaged in the defence sector, are likely to augment revenue per refit and repair – driving growth and increasing the proportion of defence repairs over the next five years. To cater to the growing demand for ship repairs, CSL is setting up an International Ship Repair Facility (ISRF) with a capex of Rs 9.7bn. It will take three years to complete and it will be funded through IPO proceeds and internal accruals. This new 130-mtrs facility will enable CSL to increase its annual throughput by 70-90 ships, translating into a 60-70% increase in volumes. According to the Ministry of Shipping, the Indian ship-repair industry’s market potential is approximately US$ 1.5bn (Rs 100bn). The domestic ship-repair industry is expected to see 8-10% CAGR in FY16-21 (Source: CRISIL).

Bharat Dynamics Ltd (BDL IN)
Order inflows and ROEs offer valuation support despite weak earnings INDIA | DEFENCE | INITIATING COVERAGE
27 March 2018
We initiate coverage on Bharat Dynamics (BDL), a government-owned company engaged in the manufacturing of missiles and torpedoes, with a NEUTRAL rating. We expect BDL to report an earnings decline over FY18-21E on depletion of its current order book. However, BDL has significant order prospects over the next five years that can grow its order book by 5x over FY18-22. Additionally, despite the weak earnings outlook in the near term, BDL’s ROEs would still be at 19% on bottom-cycle earnings and should support valuations. Sole manufacturer of SAMs, ATGMs and torpedoes in India = robust order pipeline... BDL is currently the sole manufacturer for Surface to Air Missiles (SAMs), Anti Tank Guided Missiles (ATGMs), and torpedoes in India. It can address 54% of India’s US$ 24.5bn missile demand over the next 10 years (2017-26). It is nominated to win the following large projects over the next five years – VSHORAD (very short-range air defence systems), MRSAMs (medium-range surface-to-air missiles), and Akash SAM for the Army. With these, BDL can expand its product base in SAMs and torpedoes; its revenues will then be spread across multiple projects (currently, Akash is the only major project in its order book). ...however, large projects = Prone to delays. TOT = Lower initial profitability BDL is likely to win: VSHORAD (US$ 5bn order, including foreign OEM’s share), MRSAM (US$ 1.5bn), and Akash (US$ 1.8bn). However, large contract values and limited headroom in the defence capital budget could delay timelines beyond those baked into our estimates. In addition, VSHORADs and MRSAMs are transfer of technology projects (ToT); their execution should be back-ended and we believe that the initial profitability for these projects should be low, as there will be a steady ramp up in ToT and a learning curve impact for BDL. Weak financial performance in the near term but return ratios are still high... We estimate BDL’s revenues/EBITDA/PAT to decline by 12%/16%/4% over FY17-21, based on depletion of its existing order book. The decline in earnings is lower than EBITDA, mainly due to an increase in the interest income from customer advances on new orders. The share of other income is likely to increase to 63% of earnings in FY21 from 20% in FY18. However, ROE at 19% in FY21 (bottom-cycle earnings) vs. 33% in FY17 would still be reasonable compared to peers, despite an earnings decline over this period. ROE would be supported by other income, even as fixed-asset turns decline sharply on lower sales. Initiate coverage with a NEUTRAL rating In the near term, risks do overshadow rewards for BDL; but, its inexpensive valuations limit the downside risks. Even after our assumption of a decline in earnings over FY17-21, BDL would still trade at reasonable valuations of 15x FY20 PE vs. peers such as BEL (18x), HAL (18x), and Cochin Shipyard (14x). BDL should trade at a discount to local and global comparables due to its weak financial outlook; at the same time, we do not see a further de-rating risk as strong order inflows and healthy ROEs support its valuations. We use a mix of PE, DCF and EV/Orderbook to value BDL; Target price Rs 445 BDL faces a unique scenario – where earnings will be on a negative trajectory over the next three years, but the company could potentially multiply its order book. In order to capture this peculiarity, we adopt a hybrid valuation methodology, valuing the company on a mix of PE, DCF, and EV/orderbook. We currently assign 80% weight to PE and DCF-generated valuation and ascribe a 20% weight to EV/OB. Based on this method, we arrive at a FY20-based target of Rs 445, implying an exit PE of 18x. However, sometime over the next 18 months, BDL’s valuations will switch to EV/OB from PE, as pace of orders increase but earnings remain suppressed (due to execution of its legacy orderbook). At that point, we will increase the weight of our EV/OB valuation in our valuation methodology.

Indian guided missile and torpedo market outlook
As per Frost & Sullivan, the Indian guided missiles and torpedoes market will be US$ 24.5bn during 2017-26, driven by: 1. Committed and planned missile procurement underway such as S-400 Triumf
advanced air defence systems, Barak-8 SAMs, Hellfire ASMs, Harpoon anti-ship missiles, and heavy weight torpedoes, etc.
2. Modernisation and refurbishment of deployed and stored missile systems used on existing air, land, and sea-based platforms such as missile system upgrades in existing Talwar class frigates (FFGs), ATGM upgrades, etc.
3. Missile procurements expected as a result of procurement programs initiated during the forecast timeline such as new fighter procurements, Project 28A (Next Generation Missile Corvette), Project 17A (FFG), Project 75I (Diesel Electric Submarines with Air Independent Propulsion), etc.
The Indian guided missile market will be dominated by Tactical missiles during 2017-26, with a share of 80%, followed by torpedo (9%) and cruise missile (7%) segments. Within tactical missiles, SAM (US$ 9.8bn, 50% share) and ASM (31%) will be the key contributors.

Competitive landscape and BDL's positioning
Global competitive landscape The guided missile and torpedo systems’ competitive landscape is dominated by 22 global players. However, most companies do not offer solutions across the entire gamut of guided missile product segments, and tend to specialize in segments where revenue opportunities are high. Also, export restrictions on theatre warfare weapons such as ICBMs and IRBMs prevent many firms from developing newer solutions in this segment as there is a constraint on realizable opportunities. In such cases, OEMs only start developing solutions as and when there is an explicit demand from respective MoDs for such systems.
Guided missile and torpedo market landscape
Source: RHP, Frost & Sullivan, PhillipCapital India Research
Ballistic missile: There are over 60 solutions available globally, with majority of solutions provided by Tactical Missiles Corporation (a holding corporation comprising over 20 Russian specialized munitions solution providers).
In the cruise missile segment, about 26 solutions (includes variants) are marketed today by eight major firms.
Tactical missile segment has a large expansion in terms of the number of solutions and the companies providing them.
ATGM is the most competitive, within the tactical missile segment, with majority of the companies having at least one solution because of the high demand and relatively low costs associated to it. It is also the segment straddling the lowest price points vis-à-vis other segments.
Surface-to-air and air-to-surface segments are both broad product lines indicating a high variation in customer requirements. There are over 480 solutions available for these two segments globally.
Air-to-air and anti-ship missile segments also exhibit similar characteristics. Increasing demand is also driving the production of specialized solutions within the segment. Also, as improved electronic countermeasures systems are deployed on aircraft, smarter new age air-to-air missiles impervious to jamming are being developed. Today, there are about 166 air-to-air missile solutions available in the market.
Within the surface-to-surface segment, there are more solutions and market players in the medium-range category as opposed to the long-range category. The two categories combined present over 250 solution types globally.

Indian competitive landscape Presently, the Indian guided missile and torpedo market is dominated by DPSU produced missiles and foreign solutions. Solutions from Russia, Israel, Europe, and US are well entrenched in the Indian market.
Indigenous development and manufacturing is carried out by three DPSUs – DRDO, BDL, and BEL. Amongst the three, BDL is the main player in manufacturing and is the sole manufacturer in India for SAMs, torpedoes, and ATGMs.
However, there is a drive within the establishment to indigenize missile production as much as possible in order to extricate the armed forces from any external dependencies for missile systems in the future.

Key risks
Large contracts could be prone to delays BDL is set to win three large contracts in the next three years – VSHORADS, a US$ 5bn project (including share of foreign OEM), MRSAM-Army, US$ 1.5bnm and Akash-Army, US$ 1.8bn. Given the large contract values, we see a risk of delays in award timelines, which is typically the case with such projects. In addition, the limited availability of funds for new schemes in the defence capital budget could further exacerbate delays. In fact, as per the recent Standing Committee report submitted to the parliament on the FY19 defence budget, the Army highlights that under-funding its budget share could result in the postponement of the VHSORAD program’s placement.

Execution of new projects should be back ended Even though BDL would start winning mega projects from FY19 itself, material revenue contribution from these orders would only start from FY22. This is mainly because in the ToT projects (such as VSHORAD and MRSAM-Army) initially, execution happens directly by OEMs followed by domestic lead integrator – in this case BDL.

Risk to margins, which are at cyclically high levels We see a two-pronged risk to BDL’s EBITDA margins viz. a) Share of revenues from indigenously developed Akash SAM is expected to
reduce over the next two years, as the project reaches completion and the follow up order is still some time away. Akash contributed about 75% of BDL’s sales in FY17. Ever since its execution picked up, BDL’s margins have expanded 1,900bps between FY13 and FY17.
b) New order wins in the near term, such as VSHORAD (Rs 130bn) and MRSAM (Rs 100bn) would involve transfer of technology (ToT) initially, and should be low-margin projects.
BDL's EBITDA margins expanded 1,900bps over FY13-17, led by a pick up in execution of Akash
Source: RHP, PhillipCapital India Research
An example – look at the difference in work share in a ToT project currently being executed by BEL. As seen below, the value addition by the Indian lead integrator in the initial stages of the project is materially lower than the follow-on order.

Relies on DRDO designed projects, no captive R&D strength to speak of BDL benefits from a strong relationship with DRDO and is part of the design and development stage of a project giving it a competitive advantage against other players. However, BDL has not yet developed in house design and development capabilities; its R&D expenditure is a meagre 0.7% of sales. This is low when compared to other DPSUs such as BEL (8.8% of sales) and HAL (7.4% of sales). In the long term, lack of contribution to a project’s know-how should reflect in a lower margin profile for BDL vs. other DPSUs that incur R&D investments.

Delay in execution may lead to a penalty
Any delay in the supply of goods by BDL may lead to customers levying a charge of liquidated damages or invocation of the indemnity bond / performance bank guarantee (5-10% of the contract value). Moreover, BDL's contracts with MoD permit the latter to terminate the contract for any delay of more than 24 months after the scheduled delivery (unless attributable to force majeure) as well as for default in the event of any breach.

BHARAT DYNAMICS LTD INITIATING COVERAGE
Outlook and valuation
Initiate coverage with a Neutral rating In the near term, we believe that risks outweigh rewards for BDL. However,
reasonable valuations of 15x PE FY20 despite assuming an earnings decline over FY17-21,
coupled with decent ROEs of 19% even in FY21 at bottom-cycle earnings, and
prospects of Rs 475bn of order opportunities keep us at Neutral, as we believe that the above rationale would limit downside risks to valuations.
We use a mix of PE, DCF, and EV/OB to value BDL; target price of Rs 445
In BDL’s case, we face a unique scenario where earnings will see a negative trajectory over the next three years, but the company could potentially multiply its order book. In order to capture this peculiarity we adopted a hybrid valuation methodology – a mix of PE, DCF, and EV/Orderbook.
We currently assign 80% weight to PE and DCF-generated valuation, and ascribe a 20% weight to EV/OB. Based on this, we arrived at a FY20 based target price of Rs 445, implying an exit PE of 18x.
However, sometime over the next 18 months, BDL’s stock valuations will switch to EV/OB from PE, as the pace of orders increase, but earnings will remain suppressed due to execution of its legacy orderbook; then, we would increase our weight of the EV/OB valuation in our valuation methodology.

PE based valuation: 40% weight, Rs 330 We value BDL on 13x FY20 earnings at a 20% discount to global peers, to arrive at a target of Rs 330. We ascribe a higher weight of 40% to PE as it would reflect on the weak earnings profile of the company in the near term.
DCF based valuation – 40% weight – Rs 468
Given the long gestation timelines of execution for defence projects, we used DCF to capture the impact of execution of new orders – which is expected to be back-ended from FY22. Using 5% terminal growth and a WACC of 11.5%, we arrive at a value of Rs 468 and assign a 40% weight to this valuation.

We even looked at EV/OB: 20% weight, Rs 640 We believe that as visibility on new orders increases, the stock valuation would follow orders and not near-term earnings. In order to capture this swing, we value BDL on EV/orderbook and pegged it at a 25% discount to BEL’s two-year forward EV/OB. We also assigned a lower weight of 20% compared to traditional valuation methods of PE and DCF to reflect the current lack of visibility on new orders.
BEL: Two-year forward EV/order book – average 0.4x
Source: Company, PhillipCapital India Research
What would make us revisit our stance? BDL’s key valuation support is its strong order pipeline of Rs 495bn (US$ 7.6bn) over FY19-22. Any change in award timelines (advances or delays) will have a material impact on BDL’s stock price. We would closely monitor its order prospects for any change in our view.
