We believe that this buyback was to support the disinvestment programme of the government and does not change the fundamentals of the company. However, unfavorable domestic macro environment, lack of fresh order inflow especially from the government and weaker global equity sentiment compel us to cut earnings by 1 to 7% for FY19 and FY20 and also lower the target multiple for Cosh. Maintain BUY with a lower TP of Rs 520 at 16x FY20E (from Rs 610 at 18x) Cosh announces buyback of stock worth Rs 2 bn Cosh has announced a buyback of 3.23% of its equity or 4.4 mn shares at a price of 455 per share aggregating Rs 2 bn, in which the government of India would also participate. We believe that this buyback was to support the disinvestment programme of the government. Small investors (with investment of less than Rs 2 Lakh) hold 7.4 million shares as per the FY18 annual report of Cosh. Assuming a 15% allocation for retail investors, the acceptance ratio calculated is ~9% for small investors. We do not see the buyback as a stock price supportive event for investors. Details of the buyback No of Equity Shares (mn) 4.4 Buy back price per share (Rs) 455 Total amount (Rs bn) 2 Buy Back Equity (%) 3.23 Record date 31 st October Promoter Holding (%) 75 Valuation & outlook We believe that Cosh is well placed and is ahead of the curve to exploit the massive opportunity that India's defense sector offers in the next few years. Commercial shipbuilding, offshore vessels and ship-repair helps the company beat the cyclicality associated with any one sector. It also has the requisite and best-in-class tie-ups. Also, Cosh offers the only credible shipyard for investors to India's defense business. However, high bureaucracy/slowness in awarding defense orders from the government, continued weakness in the commercial shipbuilding space, higher commodity prices, INR depreciation, weaker domestic macros and low appetite for PSU stocks compel us to cut earnings by 1 to 7% and lower the multiple for Cosh from 18x to 16x on FY20 earnings. Maintain BUY rating with a revised TP of Rs 520 (from Rs 610). Order-book situation is not healthy Amit Agarwal agarwal.amit@kotak.com +91 22 6218 6439 Cosh currently has a shipbuilding order book of Rs 19.62 bn which gives investors revenue visibility of only one year. Almost 80% of the order-book involves complex work refurbishment of an aircraft carrier, which is a high margin business, estimated to be completed by December 2020. Kotak Securities Private Client Research Please see the Disclosure/Disclaimer on the last page For Private Circulation 6

The company is also a L1 bidder for an order worth Rs 54 bn for 8 Anti-Submarine Warfare- Shallow water vessel from the Indian navy. Management of Cosh expects to convert this L1 bid to actual orders within FY19 post completion of formalities with the Indian Navy. This would give revenue visibility upto FY22 for Cosh. We estimate any additional flow of fresh orders, especially from the Navy and Coast guard to come to Cosh post the general elections in CY19. We believe this to be a political risk for the company. Current order book Segment Rs bn Confirmed shipbuilding order book 19.6 Ship-repair order book 3.5 L1 Bid 54.0 Source: Company Focus on Ship-repair segment Cosh currently has an order-book of Rs 3.5 bn in the ship-repair segment. The company intends to expand in ship-repair segment with an international shiprepair center and increased geographical reach. It has signed up MOUs with various port trust for creation of captive ship-repair facilities in the respective ports with a revenue potential of Rs 16 bn.

Kotak Securities Private Client Research Current capacity to double in 3 years COSH currently has two docks dock number one, primarily used for ship repair (Ship Repair Dock) and dock number two, primarily used for shipbuilding (Shipbuilding Dock). The Ship Repair Dock is one of the largest in India and is capable of accommodating vessels with a maximum capacity of 125,000 DWT. While the Shipbuilding Dock can accommodate vessels with a maximum capacity of 110,000 DWT. The company had raised Rs 9.8 bn through fresh issue of shares leading to 17% dilution. The company would be ramping up its capacity with a third dry-dock (measuring 310 x 75 x 13 Meters) and an international ship-repair center at Kochi. The capacity addition will enable the company to construct bigger and complex vessels as well as undertake repairs of vessels like LNG carriers, semisubmersibles, jack up rigs, and drill ships. We estimate the new facilities to comeup in the 3 to 5 years and double the capacity of the company. We have drawn a capex plan of Rs 13 bn for the company over FY18 to FY20E for the same. We estimate the balance capex to spill-over beyond FY20E. Outlook and valuation Cosh is one of the best companies to invest to play in the India s defence sector. We estimate company to report sales CAGR of 8.1% over FY18 to FY20E to Rs 27.9 bn and report earnings CAGR of 3.3% over the same period to Rs 4.26 bn. However, we are concerned with the high bureaucracy/slowness in awarding defense orders. For instance, Cosh is still L1 for eight anti-submarine shallow Kotak Securities Private Client Research Please see the Disclosure/Disclaimer on the last page For Private Circulation 7

water craft ships worth Rs 54 bn (since October 2017) and still awaiting final confirmation on the order from the government. Weak domestic macros, increasing country risk and lack of fresh orders compel us to cut earnings by 1 to 7% for FY19E and FY20E and lower the multiple accorded to Cosh from 18x to 16x on FY20 earnings. Maintain BUY rating with a revised TP of Rs 520 (from Rs 610). Lack of fresh orders is the biggest risk for the company. Upside to the stock would come from conversion of L1 order and fresh orders.
