June 15, 2016 Atul Auto (ATUAUT) 500 Atul Auto s Q4FY16 revenues were at 130 crore, up 5.9% YoY (volume up 2.5% YoY to 10,251 units) vs. our estimate of 128 crore EBITDA margins contracted 321 bps QoQ to 13.4% vs. estimate of 15.1% largely on the back of higher other expense, up 205 bps QoQ to 7.6%. Also, higher raw material cost (up 52 bps QoQ) & employee expense (up 64 bps QoQ) impacted margins. PAT was at 10.9 crore (up 25.7% YoY) vs. our estimate of 12.2 crore The management has clarified that the tax issue has been sorted out in Gujarat and volumes are likely to normalise, going forward. However, we believe the damage has largely done for Q1FY17E in the middle of a sluggish demand (both domestic & export) scenario Further, we believe margins are likely to flatten out as the benefit of higher ASPs & product mix would largely be offset by higher raw material cost, going forward. Hence, we cut our earnings estimates and multiple Domestic environment remains challenging amid stiff competition Atul Auto s growth trajectory has been impressive with volumes growing at ~29% CAGR in FY09-16 even as the domestic three-wheeler (3-W) segment has grown at ~6% CAGR in the same period. However, in the last two years, the company s growth has largely moderated (for FY15 & FY16 domestic volumes grew 8% & 6%, respectively), mainly attributable to lower rural demand (due to lower monsoons). Despite expectations of better monsoon in 2016, higher volume growth would remain a key challenge mainly due to intensifying competition (market leader Bajaj Auto has entered the 3-W goods space). In the current fiscal, tax issue in Gujarat & BAL entry in 3-W goods has led to a decline in AAL s market share by ~700 bps to 13.5%. Thus, we expect domestic volume growth of 6%, 11% to 44,902 units, 46,939 units for FY17E, FY18E, respectively. Double whammy = Delayed launch of vehicle + sluggish export market AAL took more time for testing and approval for the launch of its new petrol vehicle (largely to cater the export market) thereby delaying the launch of the product by eight to 12 months. Further, when the product was launched, the 3-W export market was and continues to face a downturn due to lower availability of dollar and currency depreciation in exporting nations. For FY16, industry volumes of 3-W exports declined 0.8% YoY to 404,441 units. We believe the near term challenge in terms of export market is likely to persist. It would be a key challenge for AAL to grab market share of well established players. Thus, the delay in launch of its new petrol vehicle & challenging time in export market would consequently impact its export volumes in the near term. Thus, we expect flattish export volume for FY17E to 1,527 units. Demand moderating while margins seem to have peaked out! Atul s specialised focus has clearly paid rich dividends as evidenced by market share gains in the past. However, currently, we believe AAL being a small player would face key challenges in both domestic and export market amid stiff competition in the 3-W space (with BAL entering the goods segment). Capacity addition in a subdued environment may result in higher overheads cost along with raw material prices, which seems to have peaked out. This would largely offset the benefit of higher ASPs and better product mix leaving lower scope for margin expansion. Thus, we cut our estimates & multiple. Hence, we revise our target price downward to 505, (valuing 17x its FY18E EPS) with a HOLD rating on the stock. ICICI Securities Ltd Retail Equity Research

Key conference call takeaways The management expects double digit volume growth for FY17E. Volumes are likely to remain subdued in H1FY17E and are expected to pick up from H2FY17E onwards. On the EBITDA margin front, the management expects 50-100 bps of margins expansion on a yearly basis The management has clarified that an increase in VAT (from 15% to 20%) at dealer level by Gujarat government earlier has been rolled backed now. Hence, volumes that were impacted in April 2016 (down 50.4% to 1,242 units) would gradually normalise, going forward According to the management, the 3-W industry, similar to other auto segments, would also move to BS IV norms from April 2017. The quantum of the price hike is yet unknown. However, the same is expected to be seen in H2FY17E For FY16, AAL sold 43,893 units with overall production capacity of 60,000 units taking the utilisation level to 73%. Export volumes and revenue accounted for ~3% of total revenues. Overall margins for FY16 expanded 263 bps to 14.4% mainly on account of lower commodity price and operational efficiency. AAL has 200 primary dealers, 120 secondary dealers and eight overseas distributors The company has a pan-india presence (except in Tamil Nadu & West Bengal). According to the management, AAL is largely penetrated in western and northern regions of India while it has a lower presence in South India ICICI Securities Ltd Retail Equity Research Page 3

Company Analysis Revenues continue to grow as volumes remain on uptrend Atul Auto is the only pure play 3-W manufacturer in India. With ~21% share in the goods carrier segment and 5% share in the passenger carrier segment, Atul has reached a respectable size in the market. Atul has also gone pan-india with a presence across almost all states. We expect volumes to remain on the uptrend though the pace is likely to soften due to a sluggish demand scenario and stiff competition. The petrol engine variant launched in the export has, however, received good consumer feedback. However, it is expected to penetrate gradually, going forward. Thus, we build in revenue growth at ~12% CAGR in FY16-18E with volume growth of ~8% in the same period.

Atul s main forte has been rural markets, especially the large diesel segment, which is a ~2.5-3 lakh strong market. The company has a significant market share in the goods carrier segment in which it is a strong player. The increase in dealerships across the country could propel faster volume growth Exhibit 4: Segmental volumes dominated by goods carrier segment 50,000 40,000 (units) 30,000 20,000 10,000 4350 7330 7153 5015-8895 13084 14773 10511 13916 17264 15917 17851 20162 21640 23747 23731 FY09 FY10 FY11 FY12 FY13 FY14 FY15 FY16 Passenger Carriers Goods Carriers Atul s market share has grown in its target market across the years. It is interesting to note that Atul earlier was only able to target ~60% of the domestic market due to the absence of a petrol variant. The entry into petrol segment, increasing capacity and footprint could lead to faster growth in market share in the coming years Exhibit 5: Atul market share movement over the years in domestic market 6 20.6 (%) 5 5.5 17.8 16.7 5.2 15.2 5.1 4 3 12.2 3.9 3.4 8.2 8.8 2 5.5 2.4 1 1.4 1.0 - FY09 FY10 FY11 FY12 FY13 FY14 FY15 FY16 24 21 18 15 (%) 12 9 6 3 0 Passenger Carriers Goods Carriers ICICI Securities Ltd Retail Equity Research Page 5

EBITDA margins to stabilise at current levels Despite continued volume growth, we believe EBITDA margins are likely to stabilise, going forward. This is after the capacity addition (phase one of 30,000 units likely to commence in FY18E) in a subdued environment may result in higher overheads cost along with raw material prices, which seems to have peaked, is likely to drag the overall profitability. On the other hand, benefit of higher ASPs and better product mix would cushion margins, which are expected to stabilise going forward. Thus, we expect margins to remain at ~14.5% over the next two years.

Both these factors could aid in improving average realisations from present levels 150,000 140,000 135,008 140,640 144,834 ( ) 130,000 127,246 127,663 129,544 121,847 120,000 110,000 FY12 FY13 FY14 FY15 FY16 FY17E FY18E ASPs ( ) ICICI Securities Ltd Retail Equity Research Page 6

Profitability to improve! Profitability is likely to remain on an uptrend as the management focus on growing profitably remains intact. With increasing volumes and stabilised margins, profitability is likely to remain on an uptrend. We expect PAT to increase at ~17% CAGR to 65 crore in FY16-18E.

For the major capex planned in FY17E, FY18E, the management has guided at meeting the capex need by using existing cash as well as CFOs. We believe that in the next two years, with CFO generation likely to remain robust as the demand scenario improves, Atul s debt-free status is likely to sustain.

Return ratio to moderate albeit to stay at higher level With the planned capex in FY17E, FY18E, return ratios are likely to moderate, going forward. We expect RoE, RoCE to remain above 25%, 35% for FY17E, FY18E, respectively. Exhibit 10: Return ratios to remain buoyant! 60 (%) 50 40 30 20 48.0 34.9 42.5 31.6 43.2 33.5 45.9 30.6 39.7 37.0 27.4 26.6 10 0 FY13 FY14 FY15 FY16E FY17E FY18E RoCE RoE ICICI Securities Ltd Retail Equity Research Page 8
