1 Company Update Excellent Margins Led by Strong Revenue Growth Revenue Analysis: Total order backlog as on Oct 1, 216 stood at Rs. 347 Bn, out of this, export order back log is US$.1 Bn. Incremental orders received during Q2FY17 was to the tune of Rs. 41 Bn. BEL s standalone Revenue for Q2FY17 grew by 16.2% (YoY). On the back of Indian government s focus on defense and increasing reforms in the defense sector, we expect the BEL consolidated revenues to grow at a CAGR of over 9.5% during FY16-18E to reach Rs Mn in FY18E. EBITDA and Margin Analysis: BEL s standalone EBITDA during Q2FY17 increased by 87.4% (YoY). EBITDA margin increased to 18.9% which was the highest in the last 5 years in the same corresponding quarter. We expect the EBITDA to grow at a CAGR of over 6.9% during FY16-FY18E to reach Rs Mn in FY17E and Rs Mn in FY18E while maintaining the EBITDA margin of 19.4% in FY17E and FY18E. PAT Analysis: Standalone PAT for the quarter without giving the effect for changes in other comprehensive income (on account of IndAS adoption) has grown by 68.2% to reach Rs Mn on account of healthy revenue growth and improved operating margins led by operating efficiencies. Outlook and Valuation We have rolled out FY18E estimates. BEL, the pure defense play in this sector, with its consistent track record in terms of execution and performance along with healthy balance sheet with almost zero debt, it is likely to benefit in terms of its performance. With the company s focus on indigenization along with indigenous R&D, collaborative R&D Tie-ups, partnership with academic institutions, selective tie-ups with foreign OEMs along with focus on modernization, consistently increasing the investment in capex backed by the healthy order book provides the long term visibility for the company s revenue growth. We have rolled forward our valuation to FY18E EPS and assigned a 21.x P/E to value BEL based on a 1 year forward FY18E EPS of Rs to arrive at an upwardly revised target price of Rs for a time frame of 9-12 months. Key Risks Any slowdown in Government s reform process or increasing competition from private players entering the defense business can put pressure on revenue growth as well as on the earnings.

Incremental orders received during Q2FY17 were to the tune of Rs. 41 Bn. Major orders obtained amongst the product lines during the quarter were Electronic warfare suite (shakti and nayan), Advances composite communication system, Ship data network and Annual Maintenance Contract for Rohini radar. Revenue Analysis: BEL s standalone Revenue for Q2FY17 grew by 16.2% led by some major supplies from 3D Tactical Control Radar, Akash Weapon System (Army), L7 Gun Upgrade, Weapon locating radar and Hand held thermal imager with laser range finder. As of FY16, around 82% of the revenue has been from defense while the rest 18% has come from civilian products. Nearly 7% of the Indian defense requirements are met through imports. According to the officials at the Ministry of Defense, though the exports from India were only to the tune of Rs. 6.7 Bn in FY15, the government has simplified and streamlined the No Objection Certificate (NOC) processes to encourage Defence Public Sector Undertakings (DPSUs). We expect the BEL consolidated revenues to grow at a CAGR of over 9.5% during FY16-FY18E to reach Rs Mn in FY18E. This is on account of increasing reforms in the Indian defense sector backed by the increasing Make-in-India focus along with the increase in the order book while maintaining the execution pace against the order back log of.25 in FY17E and.26 in FY18E. Major orders expected in FY17E include Akash missile system (7 sqdn), Mobile cellular communication system, Commander TI sights, Samyukta upgrade, Long range surface to air missile and L-band tropo upgrade. EBITDA and Margin Analysis: BEL s standalone EBITDA during Q2FY17 increased by 87.4% (YoY) led by decrease in the cost of goods sold whereby witnessing an improvement in gross margins to 52.5% from 45.3%. EBITDA margin increased to 18.9% which was the highest in the last 5 years in the same corresponding quarter. We expect the EBITDA to grow at a CAGR of over 6.9% during FY16-FY18E to reach Rs Mn in FY17E and Rs Mn in FY18E while maintaining the EBITDA margin of 19.4% in FY17E and FY18E. PAT Analysis: Standalone PAT for the quarter without giving the effect for changes in other comprehensive income has grown by 68.2% to reach Rs Mn on account of healthy revenue growth and improved operating margins led by operating efficiencies. R&D expenditure as a % of revenue for FY16 stood at 9.4% which has increased from 7.7% in FY12. With the company s focus on increasing the spend towards R&D (which is Department of Scientific and Industrial Research (DSIR) recognized under Section 35(2AB) of the Income Tax Act, 1961), effective income tax rate for the quarter stood at 25.4% which made the PAT margin increase to 17.6%. We expect the PAT to grow at a CAGR of over 5.3% to reach Rs Mn in FY17E and Rs Mn in FY18E, while maintaining the PAT margin of 16.2% in FY17E and 16.% in FY18E. Update on Buy-back offer: During the month of Oct 216, BEL announced the buy-back of 166,37,27 shares at a price of Rs. 135/- per share of face value of Rs. 1 each leading to an estimated cash outflow of Rs. 21,711.5 Mn. This will be made out of its well-built reserves and increased cash balance. Post buyback, it is expected to witness a drop in its Networth leading to reduction in book value and simultaneously increasing the earnings per share and return ratios in terms of RoE and RoCE. We have factored in the amount spent on the buy-back in our estimates. 3

The government s recent decision to raise cap on Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) from 26% to 49% in the defense sector, allowing foreign manufacturers to build more defense components without licenses will further make it easier for Indian firms to partner foreign firms. With the Prime Minister of India laid down an ambitious plan to sharpen the country s combat capabilities and transform India from the world s largest arms importer to a major defense equipments manufacturer, this provides visibility for the companies engaged in the defense activities. BEL, the pure defense play in this sector, with its consistent track record in terms of execution and performance along with healthy balance sheet with almost zero debt, it is likely to benefit in terms of its performance. With the company s focus on indigenization along with indigenous R&D, collaborative R&D Tie-ups, partnership with academic institutions, selective tie-up with foreign Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) along with focus on modernization, consistently increasing the investment in capex backed by the healthy order book provides the long term visibility for the company s revenue growth.
