IRB is also comfortably placed in terms of funding requirement (all projects have achieved financial closure and internal accruals are more than sufficient to fund equity commitment). In the construction business, a strong and financially closed captive order book provides healthy revenue visibility. Given its leadership position in road development, comfortable funding position and strong construction division providing revenue visibility, we are initiating coverage on IRB with a BUY recommendation and a price target of | 216. Leading road BOT player IRB is one of the largest BOT toll operators with 16 projects under its portfolio covering 5,735 lane km. Out of this, 3413 lane km are operational, generating net daily BOT collection of | 2.3 crore per day (highest among leading players). Once all projects get operational, we anticipate IRB’s net daily BOT collection would increase to | 4.5 crore in FY14E translating into two fold jump in BOT revenues to | 1604 crore in FY14 from | 721 crore in FY10. Comfortable funding situation IRB has achieved financial closure for all projects. In terms of equity commitment, we believe IRB’s internal accruals from BOT and construction division (| 3652 crore during FY11-14E) are more than sufficient to fund its equity commitment (| 2215 crore) during FY11-14E.

    Company background Incorporated in 1998, IRB Infrastructure (IRB) is a leading infrastructure development and construction company involved predominantly in the road and highways sector. The company through its various SPVs currently has a road project portfolio of 16 projects aggregating 5,735 lane km. Out of this, 3,413 lane km are operational generating net BOT collection of | 2.3 crore per day, which includes the marquee project Mumbai Pune Expressway. IRB is also credited with executing India’s first BOT project (Thane Bhiwandi Bypass). The company has 9.31% share in the total Golden Quadrilateral length and ~6.7% in the NHDP programme. IRB, through its wholly owned subsidiary Modern Road Makers (MRM), predominantly carries out in-house engineering, EPC and operation & maintenance work. As on Q3FY11, MRM’s order book stands at | 8986 crore, 3.6x FY11E consolidated revenues providing strong revenue visibility over the next couple of years. IRB also enjoys better EBITDA margins compared to its peers (24.8% in 9MFY11) on account of strong execution, ownership of a large base of construction equipment and supply of construction aggregates from its owned quarries, which are based in Maharashtra and Gujarat where most of IRB’s projects are based. In addition to the above, IRB through its subsidiary Aryan Infrastructure Investment Pvt Ltd (IRB’s stake – 66%) owns ~1250 acres of land bank along the Mumbai-Pune Expressway. However, given the slowdown in the real estate industry, the company is planning development at a later stage. Furthermore, IRB, through its wholly-owned subsidiary IRB Sindhudurg Airport Pvt Ltd is also looking to develop the Sindhudurg Airport project on a design, build, finance and operate (DBFO) basis for a concession period of 95 years in 2009.

    Geographical de-risking – Expanding beyond Gujarat & Maharashtra

    Till FY09, IRB had a presence only in two states i.e. Maharashtra and Gujarat. We highlight that IRB has also successfully diversified its road assets portfolio geographically by spreading beyond Maharashtra and Gujarat through projects awarded in FY10 and FY11 in areas such as Goa, Karnataka, Punjab and Rajasthan, which collectively constitute ~35% of the road portfolio now. As per our working, these new projects, once operational, would mitigate the company’s net daily BOT toll collection concentration in Maharashtra from ~69% in FY09 to ~48% in FY14E.

    Robust growth in vehicle sales supports our traffic growth assumption Given the lack of historical traffic and traffic growth rate data, we have looked at automobile volumes and growth rate, which are key variables for traffic and traffic growth on the road in our view.

    Overall domestic auto sales have witnessed a healthy growth at a CAGR of 13.5% during FY04-10. While passenger vehicle domestic sales have grown strongly at a CAGR of 13.7% during FY04-FY10, domestic sales of commercial vehicles, which have higher tolling rates, have witnessed a robust growth at a CAGR of 12.6% during FY04-FY10. The unabated growth of auto sales has picked up its pace in FY11 and overall growth YTD is ~28% for domestic auto sales.

    Going ahead, Indian macro variables such as demographics and per capita income point out that the Indian automobile sector is set for a structural demand across segments similar to what was witnessed in China from FY03 onwards. Hence, we expect the Indian automobile sector to sustain its healthy growth rate. This, in turn, supports our traffic growth estimates of 5-7% across projects.

    Comfortable funding requirement for current road portfolio…

    In order to understand the funding requirements of IRB’s equity commitment towards new project awarded in FY10 and FY11, we have analysed the equity requirement at each and every project level based on construction schedule as well as cash profit at every project level. As per our analysis, we anticipate IRB would have enough cash profit from all BOT projects to fund its equity commitment towards new projects. We also understand from the cash flow analysis that IRB would require peak funding requirements during FY12-FY13. We derive comfort in IRB from the fact that it would not face any problem in funding requirement due to i) all BOT projects being financially closed, ii) its ability to generate significant cash flows from its BOT assets and iii) debt-free status of some of the projects whose cash flows can be utilised for other projects.

    Comfortably placed to fund projects worth ~ | 4000 crore in future

    In order to understand IRB’s equity commitment towards new project wins in FY12E, we have built up a scenario where we anticipate 6750 km of projects would be awarded by NHAI in FY12E. Then we have assumed IRB’s market share at 6% (in line with share in NHDP programme so far). Based on these assumptions, we anticipate that IRB could win new projects to the tune of ~| 4000 crore in FY12E. Then, assuming debt to equity of 70:30, we anticipate cumulative equity requirement of ~| 1,200 crore during FY12E-FY14E for new project wins. Henceforth, analysing the company’s cash flow we find that the company should not face any problem in funding its equity requirement internally for these projects. We anticipate that IRB should have a cash surplus of | 46 crore in FY14E despite having funding equity requirement of ~| 1200 crore for projects, which could get awarded in FY12E. However, we highlight that so far we have not incorporated this scenario either in our valuation or in our financials.

    Forging partnership for mega projects

    NHAI has identified nine mega projects that will be awarded for building long highway stretches (300-700 km) and would involve a cost of ~ | 5,000 crore each on an average. Out of these projects, NHAI has already invited bids for the Kishangarh to Ahmedabad (via Udaipur) project, where media reports indicate that as many as 13 firms have submitted bids (including one each from Britain, France and Australia). Request for quotation (RFQ) has also been invited for the Ichapuram-Rajahmundry project (436 km) of NH-5 in Andhra Pradesh, costing | 3,550 crore. These projects, mainly in high traffic areas, are lucrative from the point of view of toll revenue and a handful of international players have joined the fray.

    IRB has joined hands with Reliance Infrastructure in a 50-50 JV for these projects. The partnership with Reliance Infra would provide dual benefits to IRB in terms of execution efficiency of a domestic partner as compared to an international player who would have only provided financial support and met the networth criteria as laid by NHAI for project bidding.

    Favourable macro opportunities in road segment in long run

    The government’s flagship road development platform is the National Highway Development Programme (NHDP), which aims to upgrade or build ~54,500 km of highway by FY15 in seven phases with contracts for ~31,300 km yet to be awarded. NHDP work includes six-laning and four-laning of the Golden Quadrilateral, North-South and East-West Corridors, widening of two-lane highways and construction of expressways and national highways. IRB, being the early entrant and leading player in this segment, coupled with strong entry barriers is well poised to be the key beneficiary from this trend.

    Construction – moving along the value chain IRB has also moved along the value chain through its subsidiary Modern Road Makers (MRM). It predominantly carries out in-house EPC and operation & maintenance work.

    Healthy order book to drive strong topline growth IRB has a strong in-house EPC division and carries out the EPC and operation and maintenance work for own road projects as well as NHAI funded projects thorough its 100% subsidiary Modern Road Maker (MRM). As on Q3FY11, its EPC order book stood at ~| 8,986 crore, 3.6x FY11E consolidated revenues. Additionally, most of its BOT projects have achieved financial closure and IRB is also well placed in terms of equity requirement.

    Enjoys better margins than its peers; expects it to come down in future MRM is owner of a large base of construction equipment and has strong execution capabilities and supply of construction aggregates from its owned quarries, which are based in Maharashtra and Gujarat where most of IRB projects are based. Hence, it enjoys better EBITDA margins (24.8% in 9MFY11). However, we anticipate that the margin would not sustain at current levels due to: i) IRB expanding its presence in other geographies, which may impact its efficiency in project management and ii) MRM may not pass on the entire hike in commodity price. Hence, we anticipate MRM’s margin will come down to 17% in FY13E from 23.9% in FY11E. Exhibit 24: Superior margins from EPC division to drive earnings

The land acquisition of approximately 1,250 acres is complete and the company would further acquire approximately 150-200 acres of additional land for the same. The total saleable area comprising residential and commercial projects would be ~30 million sq feet and the development is planned over eight to 10 years. However, given the slowdown in the real estate industry, the company is planning to develop it at a later stage. In terms of valuation, we have just considered IRB’s 66% stake at 1x P/BV will contribute | 2.6 per share in our target valuation.

    Sindhudurg Airport

    IRB, through its wholly owned subsidiary IRB Sindhudurg Airport Pvt Ltd is also looking to develop the Sindhudurg Airport project on a design, build, finance and operate (DBFO) basis for a concession period of 95 years in 2009. IRB bagged the Sindhudurg Airport Project from Maharashtra Industrial Development Corporation (MIDC) at an estimated cost including land premium of | 200 crore. The project involves design, build, finance and operation of the Greenfield airport on a developable area of 670 acres in the Sindhudurg district in Maharashtra. IRB has already approached concerned government authorities for necessary approvals and permissions required to commence construction on the project. In terms of financials and valuations, we have neither considered execution nor development of the same in our estimates.

    Hotel in Kolhapur

    IRB is also looking to develop a four star hotel in Kolhapur on 30,000 sq metre of plot received as part of the concession agreement of IRDP Kolhapur BOT project for 99 years. It has tied up with the Indian Hotel Co Ltd to operate and maintain the same. The estimated construction cost for the proposed 120-130 room hotel is around | 40 crore. We have neither built in any value from this development into our valuation nor considered capex and revenues from this development.

    The total saleable area comprising residential and

    …and BOT revenue growth of 16.2% CAGR in FY1O-FY13E...

    We anticipate IRB’s toll revenues will grow at a CAGR of 16.2% during FY10-FY13E on the back of increment toll contribution from new projects. Furthermore, the hike in toll rate at the Mumbai Pune Expressway (18% in FY2012) coupled with toll rate hike of ~5% per annum in various other projects would aid topline growth.

    Revenue mix to lead to lower consolidated EBITDA margin over FY10-13E Higher revenue growth in the construction business during FY10-FY13E (52.2% CAGR vs. 15.6% CAGR for BOT revenues) would mean the share of low margin construction revenues in total revenues would rise from 57.7% in FY10 to 75.7% in FY13E. Consequently, the overall EBITDA margin is expected to decline from 46.9% in FY10 to 33.9% in FY13E.

    Return ratios to come down marginally in FY10-FY13E Lower margins would also mean that that the return ratios would taper down marginally over FY10-13E. We estimate IRB’s RoNW and ROCE will decline from 18.9% and 12.3% in FY10 to 17.2% and 11.1% in FY13, respectively. Going ahead, however, the same should stabilise at those levels with incremental BOT revenue growth ensuring healthy return ratios. Exhibit 31: Return ratios trend

    Risk & concerns Interest rate risk

    Increase in interest rates can have an adverse impact on cash flows since most of the projects have a reset clause. However, there is some respite on this front since the Mumbai Pune Expressway has a fixed rate for the remaining period and most of the recently awarded contracts have a fixed interest rate for the construction period (typically two or three years).

    Execution delay

    Although IRB has a strong track record of executing projects within time, any delay in execution by the company would lead to cost overrun and loss of toll revenues. With issues such as environment clearances and land acquisition slowing down the process, execution delay remains a key concern.

    Slowdown in awarding

    NHAI's awarding activity has been sluggish in the second half of CY10 with awarding of only ~4,000 km in 9MFY11 as against the FY11 target of 9,000 km due to administrative delays, lack of clarity about the NHAI chairman's appointment and bottlenecks associated with land acquisition. Continuance of this sluggish awarding, therefore, is a major concern for road developers.

    Adverse regulatory changes

    Any adverse regulatory changes in term of bidding process, toll rates, etc, which is decided by government, can adversely impact the company.

    Traffic risk

    We have built in a traffic growth range of 6-8% for road projects. Lower traffic growth can adversely impact the revenue growth for the projects since all of IRB’s projects are toll-based and revenue is directly dependent on traffic unlike annuity based projects.

    Rise in key raw material prices

    Rising raw material prices pose a risk for IRB since all in-house EPC contracts undertaken by MRM are fixed price contracts. Any significant rise in raw material prices would pose a risk in valuation either to MRM or its BOT SPV.

    Valuation At the CMP, the stock is trading at 12.3x FY12E EPS and 2.1x FY12E P/BV. IRB, being one of the leading BOT road players, would be the key beneficiary of the huge opportunities in the road sector. Hence, we are initiating coverage on the stock with a BUY recommendation and a price target of | 216/share based on SOTP valuation.

    BOT projects: We have valued road BOT projects using the FCFE methodology. The total BOT projects have been valued at | 143/share. We have considered cost of equity of 12% for operational projects and 13% for construction/development stage. We have considered cost of equity of 15% for Goa Panaji as there are environment clearance issues for one of the land parcels. We have considered a traffic growth assumption of 5-7% depending on the project and have factored in a delay in projects by three to six months. We also highlight that we have not built up any new project wins in our valuation. Based on new project wins worth | 4000 crore (discussed on page 6), these projects can add value of | 240 crore for FY 12 or | 7 per share (based on 1x FY12 P/BV), which is not considered in our valuation.

    Construction business: We have valued the standalone construction business at | 70/share (9x FY12 EPS, at a discount to midcap construction companies).
