Net revenues at 6098 crore (up 2.3% YoY, 8.6% QoQ), were marginally above our estimates of 6064 crore on account of the beat on ASPs in the domestic market Reported margins were at 21.6% (up 270 bps YoY, 130 bps QoQ), against our estimates of 21.1%, mainly on account of higherthanestimated gross margin expansion and a richer product mix (higher share of sports segmentpulsar & Avenger) Reported PAT grew 57.9% YoY to 933 crore. Growth appears optically higher due to an exceptional loss of 340 crore in Q2FY15 Regaining lost ground through right strategy BAL s domestic 2W volumes remained flat in FY10FY15, when the industry grew ~11% in the same period. In the same period, BAL s market share declined from 19.1% to 11.1%. The decline in market share was on account of BAL s absence in the scooter segment, which grew at a CAGR of 25.2% in FY1015. In the domestic motorcycle segment, BAL s market share declined from 24% in FY10 to 16.5% in FY15. This decline was due to discontinuance of CT100 (affordable bike in economy segment) & Boxer and wrong brand positioning of the Discover brand. However, BAL has shown signs of a recovery in FY16, led by relaunching of CT100, introducing electric start feature in Platina and launching variants of the Pulsar brand. The management expects to regain the market share lost in the last two years by focusing on the entry level segment (CT100, Platina) and premium/sport segment (Pulsar, KTM, Avenger), which together form ~40% of the market. These initiatives have led to an increase in market share from ~15% in Q4FY15 to ~18% currently. The management is aiming to increase the domestic market share in the motorcycle space to ~24%. Growth in high margin 3W segment BAL has guided for 3W volume of ~260000270000 units in the domestic 3W market & ~325000 in the export market. We expect the new permit order for ~100000 3W in Mumbai region to be a positive for BAL. The impact of this order in 3W domestic sales will be seen in Q4FY16E and FY17E. The 3W currently accounts for 13.6% of total BAL volumes, which we expect to increase to 14.6% in FY17E. Given that 3W commands 25+% EBITDA margins, this increase of 3W in the product mix would be positive for BAL. Overall, we expect 3W volumes to grow at a CAGR of ~15% in FY1517E. IndianGlobal manufacturing OEM BAL is one of the few Indian manufacturing OEMs with a global presence/market share coupled with global R&D standards along with quality management. On the financials front, ~82% of the business operates at ~20% EBITDA margin. The company is following the right strategy, by launching new products in higher growth segments (economy & premium). We believe the earnings trajectory will remain strong at a CAGR of ~30% in FY1517E and remains a lowrisk, high RoCE business. We value BAL on an SOTP basis, valuing the core business at 17x FY17E EPS and investment in KTM to arrive at a target price of 2910. We have a BUY rating on the stock ICICI Securities Ltd Retail Equity Research

Key conference call takeaways Gross blended realisations grew 4.5% QoQ (against our estimates of 3%) to ~ 58936. Higher realisation can be attributed to better product mix (higher share of sports segmentpulsar & Avenger), price hike taken across board in September ( 5002000/ per unit in motorcycle segment & 2000/ unit in 3W segment) and favourable exchange rate The company does not expect a significant benefit of a fall in commodity prices in H2FY16 For Q2FY16, dollar realisations were at 65.2 vs. 63.9 in Q1FY16. Sales have been subdued in the festive season so far. Sales have declined ~78% if we compare the Ganesh Utsav & Navratri on a YoY basis BAL has lined up launches in H2FY16, with the launch of three Avenger variants in sports segment in Q3FY16 and an unnamed product in the M3 segment. Further, the management expects the volume of the Avenger to increase from current level of ~3500/month to ~12,000/month by February in CY16. The management expects the product to be successful on account of competitive pricing & strong demand for leisure bikes. In the domestic 3W market, ~150000 new permits in Maharashtra & reentry of 3W in goods segment will lead to increase in volumes in Q4FY16E and FY17E The total spare part revenues in Q2FY16 was 569 crore of which export revenues was 154 crore. Spare part revenues are skewed towards motorcycle segment (70:30 in favour of motorcycle segment) The favourable benefit of the forex movement is expected to be passed on in the export market to grow the market & maintain leadership. The quadricycle Qute has been dispatched to countries for initial market development where EU certification is valid The new IND AS accounting standard from FY17 will lead to accounting of returns from FMP on accrual basis against cash basis currently. Also, the MTM losses/gains on unrealized hedges will flow into the Balance Sheet instead of the P&L. Going ahead, this will reduce the volatility in other income.

Company Analysis Revenue growth to pick up as uptrading to begin in motorcycle space! The revenue growth of BAL in the coming years is expected to be driven by volume growth across twowheelers (2W), threewheelers (3W), product mix improvements and less by pricing. However, we have factored in moderate revenue growth at ~15.7% CAGR (FY1517E) with the domestic segment expected to be up ~16.6% to 16,674 crore and exports up ~15.6% to 13,034 crore. We expect the domestic motorcycle market share to increase to ~2324% in coming years from the current share of ~1819%. The 3W (including RE60) business is also expected to grow at ~15% CAGR in FY1517E.

EBITDA margin to remain high! Looking at BAL s financial performance, we can clearly see that strong consistency is almost synonymous with the company. Currently, BAL faces a margin challenge on the Discover family, which we believe would improve by H2 in terms of market share. However, there will be an enrichment of product mix towards premium segment in H2FY16. We believe BAL will continue to reap the benefit of depreciating currency in FY16E, thereby causing a profitability impact in export markets. Exhibit 3: EBITDA margins to remain steady!

BAL remains a cash generating franchise, which has an annual CFO of ~ 2520 crore and CFO/EBITDA ratios of ~88% (five year average). The company has extremely tight control on working capital and has already worked towards reducing the system inventory in FY15. We believe the cash accumulated in BAL s balance sheet could be better utilised via higher dividend payout as capex requirements are just ~13% of CFO generated annually.

Outlook and valuation With a strong global outlook, BAL s profile strongly resembles an MNC player, with low dependence on a single market. As the rupee continues to remain under pressure, BAL s competitiveness has improved in export markets, along with an improvement in realisations and margins. BAL currently derives margins of 2730% in the export market. With an upside potential in the form of improvement in the domestic demand scenario coupled with the launch of the RE60, we believe a lot of negatives are already priced in BAL s stock price. Despite its absence in the fast growing scooter segment, we believe BAL s focus remains on the global motorcycle space, which differentiates it from others. We feel it has some aces up its sleeve in the 150 cc+ category in the form of new Pulsar/Avenger launches (in competition to Royal Enfield). Both of these could, in any case, provide volume surprises in FY16E and FY17E. Though the market constantly looks at revenue growth possibilities for BAL and cringes today, we feel strategies to chase revenues (e.g. possible scooter entry) while sacrificing profits are not beneficial to shareholders. On the financials front, BAL highlighted the fact that ~82% of business operates at >20% EBITDA margin while for the remaining Platina (7%) and Discover (11%), BAL expects the latter to improve in line with industry averages. The company has one of the lowest fixed cost structure (~7%) in the industry, thus leading to negative working capital and >200% operating RoCE (current). BAL is one of the few Indian manufacturing OEMs with a global presence/market share coupled with global R&D standards along with quality management. We believe BAL s earnings trajectory will remain strong at a CAGR of ~30% in FY1517E and remains a lowrisk, high RoCE business. We value BAL on an SOTP basis, valuing the core business at 17x FY17E EPS and investment in KTM to arrive at a target price of 2910. We have a BUY recommendation on the stock.
