1 Management Meet Update Institutional Equities KEC International Reuters: KECL.BO; Bloomberg: KECI IN Healthy Order Inflow Traction Expected To Continue We had a meeting with the management of KEC International (KEC) recently to get the latest business update. The management is optimistic about healthy order inflows continuing from domestic as well as international markets. Following are the key takeaways: Improved execution pace in PGCIL projects: While order placement traction from Power Grid Corporation of India (PGCIL) remains steady at Rs2bn per year, the pace of execution of projects improved significantly. PGCIL s focus on commissioning its high capital work-in-progress of Rs56bn as well as a significant improvement in the pace of receiving last-mile clearances from the Central government led to faster completion of projects. KEC completed 15 projects for PGCIL last year. The annual addressable opportunity size for KEC from PGCIL orders stands at Rs7bn-Rs8bn in case of transmission lines and Rs5bn-Rs6bn in case of sub-stations. In FY15, KEC s market share in PGCIL tenders stood at 15%, which it aims to scale up further. Healthy order inflow from SEBs: KEC is witnessing healthy order placement activity from the state electricity boards (SEBs) of Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, West Bengal, Orissa, Bihar, Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh. The total T&D capex outlay of SEBs is Rs2bn- Rs25bn per annum. The terms of trade in certain SEBs have also improved with timely payment, focus on faster execution and incentivising contractors by offering bonus for before-time completion (a case in point is Karnataka, where KEC completed a project two months ahead of schedule and will get a bonus for it). SEB projects are also larger in value compared to those of PGCIL as they are lump-sum turnkey contracts with supply of equipments (eg. conductors) also included in the scope of work. Also, the margins are 5bps-1bps higher compared to PGCIL tenders. Consequently, the share of orders from SEBs in the order book of KEC has equaled the share of PGCIL contracts. International orders to remain steady: KEC expects its international order inflows to remain steady driven by the Middle East, Africa and SAARC countries. In the MENA region (17% of FY15 order book), KEC is exposed to primarily three countries Saudi Arabia, Abu Dhabi and Oman where order placement traction has not been affected despite the recent fall in crude oil prices. With the continuous thrust on investment in public infrastructure projects in these three countries, a robust growth in order inflows is expected, especially from Saudi Arabia which has increased its public infrastructure capex multifold. In Africa and Central Asia (11% of FY15 order book), creation of power infrastructure through various multilateral agency-funded projects will drive good order inflows for KEC, particularly from countries like Kenya, Uganda, Mozambique, Ethiopia, Zambia and Tanzania. In the SAARC region excluding India (driven by Bhutan and Bangladesh), KEC has received healthy orders (9% of FY15 order book). The only geography where KEC has not been able to scale up much is the Far East (2% of FY15 order book) where it had limited success in four countries (Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines and Laos).

Its Brazil manufacturing plant (65,mt capacity), which services only Brazil market, suffered inventory pile-up following slowdown in economic activity because of national elections in November 214, leading to unabsorbed overheads and thereby hurting margins. While the inventory dispatch problem has not been completely resolved yet, the outlook for FY16 is better because of a healthy order book. The second manufacturing plant of SAE Towers in Mexico (35,mt capacity), which services the US, Mexico and Canada markets, continues to remain badly impacted by: (a) Predatory pricing by a new entrant in Mexico, and (b) Slowdown in Canada and some parts of North America because of the fall in crude oil prices. Overall, the management expects low single-digit margins for SAE Towers for FY16. Update on railway and water segments and BOOT projects In the railway segment (1.6% of FY15 revenue), KEC is focusing on mid-to-large sized projects worth around Rs1bn with a clear benchmark on minimum threshold margin. In the long run, railways can offer good opportunities for KEC in verticals like DFCCs (dedicated freight corridors), metro rail and railway electrification. In the water segment (1.6% of FY15 revenue), KEC wants to focus solely on waste water treatment projects and is executing four projects currently two each in Uttarakhand and Bangalore. KEC expects the scale-up to be gradual in the water segment. For the transmission line BOOT (Build, Own, Operate and Transfer) projects, KEC is bidding for smaller projects valued at ~Rs3bn for gaining experience, but it is not looking to create a significant portfolio of BOOT projects. It is also entering in pre-bid tie-up with other BOOT players to offer EPC services. Outlook and valuation Driven by better margin transmission orders, stabilisation of SAE Towers & cable business and completion of legacy projects in railway & water segments, KEC is poised to register a healthy expansion in its operating margin profile. We have factored in margin recovery of 7.2%/8.1% for FY16E/FY17E, respectively, leading to a 21bps operating margin expansion over FY15-FY17E. A 1% CAGR in adjusted earnings over FY15- FY17E (on a suppressed base), a healthy rise in return ratios (RoE likely to rise from 5.6% in FY15 to 17.8% in FY17E), reasonable valuation (current P/E of 1xFY17E earnings versus past eight years median P/E of 13.6x), high scalability potential owing to a strong transmission capex outlay likely over the next five years in India and strong international order inflow makes us positive on the stock. We have retained Buy rating on KEC with a target price of Rs131 based on 12xFY17E earnings.
