Source: Company, Angel Research; Note * not comparable due to SPIL merger

Favorable forex and SPIL merger drives performance: For 1QFY2014, Maruti Suzuki (MSIL) reported strong results on the operating front, which was in-line with our estimates; however, net profit was slightly lower-than-expected due to higher tax rate (at 25.3% as against expectation of 21%). The quarterly results are not comparable on a yoy as well as sequential basis as 1QFY2014 and 4QFY2013 results reflect the impact of the consolidation of Suzuki Power Train India (SPIL) operations. The top-line for the quarter declined 5% yoy to `10,237cr and was in-line with our estimate of `10,284cr. The performance was aided by a strong 5.4% yoy growth in net average realization driven by a better product-mix and price increases which although were partially offset by higher discounts (up ~15% yoy). Volumes however posted a decline of 10% yoy due to demand slowdown in the domestic (down 6.8% yoy) as well as export (down 35.4% yoy) markets. On the operating front, the EBITDA margin stood at 11.4% (significant expansion of 410bp yoy), in-line with our estimate, largely led by favorable impact of forex movement and also supported by the ongoing cost reduction initiatives and re-distribution of expenses owing to the SPIL merger. Net profit surged 49% yoy to `632cr aided by strong operating performance and also due to higher other income (up 81.9% yoy). However, a higher tax-rate and increase in depreciation expense (up 41.3% yoy) due to SPIL merger restricted bottom-line growth.

Outlook and valuation: While rural sales for the company continue to grow at a robust pace (up ~19% yoy), urban sales witnessed a high single digit decline during 1QFY2014. The Management stated that the demand for diesel vehicles too has turned weak and expects average discounts to inch upwards in 2QFY2014. We revise our FY2014 volume estimates downwards to ~2% from ~7% earlier to factor in the weak demand environment that the industry is currently facing. Nonetheless, we retain our EBITDA margin estimates and expect an expansion of 150bp in FY2014, driven by favorable currency movement, easing of commodity cost pressures, ongoing cost reduction initiatives and also on account of the SPIL merger. We increase our tax-rate assumptions to 24% from 21% earlier as guided by the Management. Consequently, we revise downwards our earnings estimates by 11.3%/9.5% for FY2014/15 respectively. We expect MSIL to register a strong earnings CAGR of ~18% over FY2013-15. We maintain our Buy rating on the stock with a target price of `1,648.

Top-line growth on expected line: The top-line for the quarter declined 5% yoy to `10,237cr and was in-line with our estimate of `10,284cr. The top-line performance was aided by a strong growth of 5.4% yoy in net average realization, driven by better product-mix and price increases which although were partially offset by higher discounts. Average discounts for the quarter stood at `13,426/ unit up from `11,646 in 1QFY2013 and `10,597/ unit in 4QFY2013. Volumes however posted a decline of 10% yoy due to slowdown in demand in the domestic (down 6.8% yoy) as well as export (down 35.4% yoy) markets. The sale of diesel cars as a proportion of total sales stood at 34% as against 36.3% in 4QFY2013. The export revenue for the quarter stood at `907cr registering a decline of 17.5% yoy following a 35.4% yoy decline in export volumes. Nonetheless, export realization continued its strong momentum and registered a robust growth of 27.6% yoy on the back of better product-mix and better realization on the forex front.

Favorable currency impact and SPIL merger boost margins: On the operating front, EBITDA margins stood at 11.4% (significant expansion of 410bp yoy), in-line with our estimates, largely led by favorable impact of forex movement and also supported by the ongoing cost reduction initiatives and re-distribution of expenses owing to the SPIL merger. For 1QFY2014, the reported raw-material expense as a percentage of sales stood at 71.9% as against 77.8% in 1QFY2013; it benefitted from the SPIL merger to the tune of 3.5%. The Management stated that the company’s average Yen/USD rate was ~94 during the quarter. Going ahead, 52% of the balance Yen/USD (direct - 80% hedged and indirect - 30% hedged) exposure for FY2014 has been hedged at close to the current market rate. However, USD/INR exposure remains unhedged which along with higher level of discounts could pose a risk to margins. The operating profit for the quarter surged 48.3% yoy to `1,166cr.

Conference call – Key highlights

According to the Management, the current demand for passenger vehicles remains muted and is not witnessing any material uptick. The retail sales for the company in the month of April, May and June stood at 67,000, 80,000 and 90,000 respectively. Going ahead, the company intends to start building up inventory ahead of the festive season.

The Management has guided for a 0-5% volume growth for FY2014 in the domestic markets. However, it expects volumes to decline by 0-5% in the export markets.

Rural sales now account for ~30% of overall volumes for MSIL and grew robustly by 19% yoy during the quarter. Urban sales however, declined in high single digits. MSIL expects the momentum in rural sales to continue in 2HFY2014 on the back of good monsoons.

Export demand has deteriorated sharply due to slowdown in Europe and specific issues in some countries.

The average discounts for MSIL stood at `13,426/vehicle during the quarter as against `10,600/vehicle in 4QFY2013 and `11,646 in 1QFY2013. Going ahead, MSIL expects average discounts to inch upwards as discounts are now being offered even on diesel models.

Average JPY realization for 1QFY2014 stood at `94/USD and is expected to be around `98/USD during 2QFY2014. The company has hedged around 52% of USD/JPY exposure for the remaining 9MFY2014. This largely covers the company’s direct imports and 2QFY2014 imports for the vendors.

The royalty expenses as a percentage of sales stood at 6.1% as against 6.2% in 1QFY2013 and 4.8% in 4QFY2013.

The import content for MSIL has come down to 19.6% (excluding royalty) from 26% in FY2012 on account of Yen depreciation and the ongoing localization initiatives. The Management expects to improve localization by 8-10% over the next 2-3 years.

MSIL’s third plant at Manesar is expected to commission from September 2013. The new diesel engine capacity is also expected to come on stream around the same time.

According to the Management, tax rate going forward, is expected to remain in the range of 24-25%.

The capital expenditure planned for FY2014 stands at `4,000cr. However, this can be scaled down or postponed depending upon the demand scenario.

Investment arguments

Per capita car penetration near inflexion point: In FY2009, car penetration in India was estimated at around 12 vehicles/1,000 people compared to around 21 vehicles/1,000 people in China. Moreover, India’s PPP-based per capita is estimated to approach US$5,000 over the next four to five years, which is expected to be the inflexion point for the country’s car demand. Further, MSIL has a sizeable competitive advantage over new foreign entrants due to its widespread distribution network (nearly 3,000 and 1,000 service and sales outlets, respectively), which is not easy to replicate.

Suzuki focusing to make Maruti a a small car manufacturing hub: Suzuki Japan is focusing to make MSIL a global small car manufacturing hub to cater to the increasing global demand for small cars due to rising fuel prices and stricter emission standards. Thus, we believe there is a huge potential for the company to increase its market share in the export market. Moreover, R&D capabilities, so far largely housed at Suzuki Japan, are progressively moving to MSIL. The company is aiming to achieve full model change capabilities over the next couple of years, which will enable it to launch new models and variants at a much faster pace. This is expected to reduce its royalty payment in the medium-term (2-3 years).

Merger with SPIL to be positive in the long run: MSIL has merged its associate company, SPIL with itself. SPIL, a 70:30 JV between Suzuki Motor Corporation (SMC), Japan, and MSIL, manufactures and supplies diesel engines and transmission components for vehicles. SPIL currently supplies ~90% of its production to MSIL. We believe the merger of SPIL with MSIL is positive for MSIL given that MSIL itself is setting up a new diesel engine facility (capacity of 300,000 units by FY2014) in Gurgaon. Further, with increasing trend of dieselization, the integration of SPIL will result in better control over diesel engine sourcing, flexibility in production planning, and managing fluctuations in market demand. Additionally, single management control of diesel engine operations will result in better sourcing, localization and cost-reduction.

Outlook and valuation

While rural sales for the company continue to grow at a robust pace (up ~19% yoy), urban sales have witnessed a high single digit decline during 1QFY2014. The Management indicated that the demand for diesel vehicles too has turned weak and expects average discounts to inch upwards in 2QFY2014. We revise our FY2014 volume estimates downwards to ~2% from ~7% earlier to factor in the weak demand environment that the industry is currently facing. As a result, our top-line estimates are revised slightly downwards. Nevertheless, we expect a revival in demand in FY2015 after three years of weak performance that the industry has witnessed. We expect MSIL volumes to grow by ~11% in FY2015. We retain our EBITDA margin estimates for FY2014/15 and expect an expansion of 150bp in FY2014, driven by favorable currency movement, easing of commodity cost pressures, ongoing cost reduction initiatives and also on account of the SPIL merger. We also revise upwards our income tax-rate assumptions to 24% from 21% earlier as guided by the Management. Consequently, our earnings estimates are revised down by 11.3%/9.5% for FY2014/15 respectively.

We continue to remain positive on the long-term volume growth potential of the domestic passenger car industry, driven by economic growth and low penetration levels in the country. We expect MSIL to be the primary beneficiary of this and expect the company to register a strong earnings CAGR of ~18% over FY2013-15. Our revised EPS estimates for MSIL (including the impact of SPIL merger) for FY2014/15 stand at `94.6/`109.8 respectively. At `1,375, MSIL is trading attractively at 12.5x FY2015E earnings (including the impact of SPIL merger). We maintain our Buy rating on the stock with a target price of `1,648 (`1,822 earlier), valuing the stock at 15x FY2015 earnings.
