Engineers India reported a bad set of numbers : IndiaNivesh Securities


Engineers India reported a bad set of numbers. The reported top-line of the
company was at Rs 6.0 bn way below our expectations of Rs 7.4 bn. Reported
top-line declined by 23.7% on year-over-year basis (32.8% & 10.4% fall in
Turnkey & Consultancy business, respectively).
 At the EBITDA front, company reported an EBITDA of Rs 1.3 bn against our
expectations of Rs 1.9 bn. On other hand, reported EBITDA margins of the
company were at 21.7% (vs. 23.0% a year ago & 25.3% in previous quarter).
 32.8% fall in year-over-year Turnkey business top-line led to 44.1% fall in the
year-over-year sub-contracting charges (to Rs 871.8 mn). Increased
contribution of Consultancy business (47.9% in Q3FY13 vs. 40.8% in Q3FY12)
coupled with marginal cool-down in raw material prices, translated to 25.3%
year-over-year fall in construction materials (to Rs 1.9 bn).
 If we look at Q3FY13 segment-wise EBIT margins, both, Consultancy & Turnkey
business on a year-over-year basis, witnessed margin compression scenario.
Unadjusted EBIT margins of Consultancy business declined from 45.0% a year
ago to 41.5% in Q3FY13. Further, Turnkey business witnessed 261 bps
unadjusted EBIT margin compression on a year-over-year basis to 7.6%.
 EIL reported a PAT of Rs 1.3 bn, below our expectations of Rs 1.7 bn. Despite
EBITDA margin compression, PAT margins expanded on a year-over-year basis
by 279 bps to 21.9%. PAT margin expansion has been on a/c of (1) 50.6%
surge in other income (to Rs 669.3 mn), (2) 12.8% decline in tax expenses (to
Rs 632.9 mn).
Update on Order Book
During the quarter EIL reported Rs 544 mn of Order Inflows (OI’s). In the first nine
months of FY13E, EIL has reported OI to the tune of Rs 12.8 bn. With 1 more quarter
to go in FY13E, EIL would have a daunting task of reporting OI’s in the range of
Rs 17.2-22.2 bn to attain its FY13E OI guidance of Rs 30-35 bn. In our opinion the
company will miss-out on the guidance if no quick decission is taken by various
govt. agencies, through which it gets orders

Engineers India Ltd.(EIL) :: CENTRUM WEALTH: Top 10 Diwali Picks


Engineers India (EIL), a PSU with 80.4% government stake, is the only player in India providing complete ‘concept to commissioning’ engineering project services across hydrocarbon value-chain. India needs investments to the tune of Rs.27 lakh crore by 2030, in order to become self reliant in the hydrocarbon sector (ASSOCHAM), which is expected to provide stable order inflows for EIL;
EIL is closely working with the government’s ambitious Rs.55,000 crore project for creating additional 12.5 million tonne (MT) strategic crude oil storage facilities, which would increase India’s total strategic crude oil storage capacity to 17.8MT. EIL also has a contract from GSPL India Transco Ltd, for its 2,000-km natural gas pipeline project and a consultancy contract from Cairn Energy Pty Ltd. for its Mangala Polymer Project. In July, 2012 it secured a Rs.720 crore consultancy contract from BPCL for its $2.6 billion Integrated Refinery Expansion Project at Kochi. EIL’s total order inflow was Rs.938 crore during Q2FY2013 taking the outstanding order book to Rs.4,353 crore, which provides revenue visibility for more than one year;
We believe the Finance Ministry’s new roadmap to boost investment, along with cash-rich public sector companies (PSUs) utilizing surpluses for expansion and overseas acquisition, would be a positive development for EIL;
EIL’s revenue and PAT are expected to grow by 23% and 17% CAGR respectively for FY2012-14E. The company is in a position to earn higher margins (~22%-24%), as its turnkey orders are on Open Book Estimates Basis, wherein the entire raw material cost is borne by clients, resulting in huge cash flow generation at the operating levels;
On a standalone basis for Q2FY2013, while revenues declined by 19.3% YoY to Rs.668 crore, the net profit grew by 10% YoY to Rs.161 crore. The increase in profitability of the company was contributed by higher contribution from high margin – consultancy business (PBIT margin of 43.3%) as compared to 8.3% margin in turnkey business. Revenue from consultancy & engineering projects increased by 24% YoY to Rs.353 crore while that from turnkey projects declined by 42% YoY to Rs.315 crore for Q2FY2013;
EIL is a ‘zero debt company’ with cash and liquid investments of Rs.2,300 crore (~30% of market cap) which translates into cash per share of Rs.68 as on September 30,2012. EIL had a negative working capital (Rs.784 crore for FY2012) due to milestone based payments and back-to–back credit lines from suppliers available to the company. Adjusted for the Rs.4 final dividend in August 2012, the stock is trading at about 20% below its 52 week high price of Rs.289 and at current price trades at 10.6x FY2013E EPS of Rs.21.70. We recommend Buy with a target price of Rs.349 valuing the stock at 16.1x its FY2013E EPS;

SELL Engineers India; TP: INR 190.00 :: religare research,


Weak orders to hobble growth; downgrade to SELL
ENGR’s revenue growth profile is likely to remain weak over FY13-FY14 due to anaemic order inflows, with the order book unlikely to scale prior peaks in the medium term (Rs 75bn in FY11). We expect revenues to decline at an annual run-rate of 14% over FY12-FY14E (down 16% in Q1FY13), though profitability should be supported by margin improvement and higher other income. We cut our September’13 TP to Rs 190 and downgrade the stock to SELL.

ENGINEERS  INDIA LTD (EIL)
PRICE: RS.273 RECOMMENDATION: BUY
TARGET  PRICE:  RS.320 FY13E P/E: 13.7X
Engineers India Ltd (EIL) is India's leading publicly held company engaged in
the areas of Hydrocarbon, metal and infrastructure consultancy. The
company has a healthy market share in the Hydrocarbon consultancy
segment and enjoys entrenched relationship with few of the major oil & gas
companies like HPCL, BPCL, ONGC and IOC. Driven by increased activity in
global energy scenario and rapid development in Indian Hydrocarbon space,
we believe that the company is well poised for 13% CAGR in net profits
between FY11-13E.
In our estimates, we project a 21% CAGR in consolidated revenues between
FY11-13E from Rs.28 bn in FY11 to Rs. 41.6 bn in FY13E. Within the revenue
streams, we expect consultancy & engineering business to grow at 6% CAGR
and Lumpsum turnkey project segment (LSTP) to grow at 30% CAGR
between FY11-13E mainly driven by 1) current order book at Rs 57 bn 2)
continued momentum in the domestic Hydrocarbon Industry mainly refining
and petrochemicals 3) pick up in investments in projects in power and
infrastructure space 4) company's new initiative adding to revenues and 5)
meaningful contribution from overseas Hydrocarbon markets mainly Middle
East.
At the current price, company's stock looks reasonably valued on  a
discounted cash flow basis. We therefore initiate coverage on EIL stock with
a BUY rating and one year DCF based target price of Rs.320.

Engineers India: Buy:: The real Indian engineers ::Ambit

Please Share:: Bookmark and Share India Equity Research Reports, IPO and Stock News
Visit http://indiaer.blogspot.com/ for complete details �� ��



The real Indian engineers
Amongst its Engineering & Construction (E&C) peers, EIL has an
unmatched cash flow profile and RoEs (37%-40%). Specific, yet
scalable, hydrocarbon engineering and project management skills, a
large talent pool and Government ownership drive its competitiveness.
Rising investments in the hydrocarbons sector by Government related
companies (XIIth 5-year plan suggests 2x XIth plan investments) will
fuel EIL’s growth. Whilst there can be near-term growth deceleration,
the present valuations (12x FY13 core eps) do not reflect the firm’s
competitiveness and its cash flow generating capability.
Competitive positioning: STRONG Change to this position: POSITIVE
The E&C sector’s overhang has led to EIL’s stock price declining 37% over the
past year despite revenue growth remaining strong (up 40% YoY in 1HFY12)
and the firm’s business capabilities being robust. In an industry where
companies are shedding strength with rising debt, we recommend EIL due to:
Government sponsored enterprises to invest twice in the XIIth plan v/s
the XIth plan: The cyclical nature of refinery and petchem investments can
lead to a lack of orders for a brief period. But Government sponsored plans to
increase their refinery capacity [by 60% (74mmtpa) by investing US$18bn in
greenfield capacities and US$13bn in upgradations] will provide EIL with
growth visibility over FY12-FY17. Further, greenfield petchem capex is
expected to be closer to US$8bn. Slippage risks are low owing to Government
support for energy PSUs and fewer procedural problems in expansions.
Superlative capabilities with flexibility: EIL’s scalable hydrocarbon
engineering/project management skills, extensive experience and Government
ownership make its offerings flexible — not only E&C services across the
contracts spectrum (design to EPC) but also critical path projects, tweaking the
usual EPC models (offering open book estimates, OBE) and entering into longterm
relationships (MoUs, nominations) with energy PSUs. The cost-sensitive
nature of large projects keeps the threat from the high-cost global majors low.
Unrivalled CFOs and RoEs: Over FY08-FY11 EIL leveraged its rising
investments by capturing a bigger share of hydrocarbon spend by taking up
low EBITDA margin (10%-12%) high volume lumpsum turnkey (LSTK) jobs
(144% CAGR) instead of high EBITDA margin (40%) low volume consulting
jobs (22% revenue CAGR). Hence, op cashflows (CFO) rose and RoEs moved
to 37%-40% from mid-teens earlier, overriding the declining EBITDA concerns.
Valuations projecting near-term concerns into long-term? Despite a
radically better CFO/RoE profile, EIL’s stock trades in line with peers. Paltry
orders in FY12 and a growth deceleration beyond FY13 have led to a gradual
derating. We do expect lower revenue growth over FY13-FY15, but believe
EIL’s multiple should retrace lost ground as the refinery opportunity gets
supplemented with fertilizer capex, thus addressing growth concerns. A higher
investible float than many peers addresses low free float concerns.

Please let me know the short- and medium-term targets for South Indian Bank and Jet Airways.
John
South Indian Bank (Rs 23.6): After retracing 38.2 per cent Fibonacci retracement level of the stock's prior up move from its lifetime high of Rs 29.7 in November 2010, the stock found support at around Rs 19 in February. The price band between Rs 19 and Rs 20 is a significant support band from a long-term perspective.
This support band cushioned the stock from declining further in late August this year. Building a strong base at around Rs 20, the stock resumed its long-term uptrend that has been in place ever since bottoming out in the first quarter of 2009.
The stock is presently testing a key medium-term resistance level around Rs 23.5. Emphatic breakthrough of this level will take the stock northwards to Rs 25.5-26 range in the short-term. Investors with short-term horizon can hold the stock with stop loss at Rs 22. However, a fall below Rs 22 will mar the short-term positive view and pull the stock down to Rs 20.
Strong move beyond Rs 26 will pave the way for a rally to Rs 30 in the medium-term. Investors with a medium-term perspective can consider holding the stock with stop-loss at Rs 20. On the other hand, breach of Rs 20 can drag the stock down to Rs 17 or to Rs 15 in the coming months.
Jet Airways (Rs 251.3): Ever since encountering resistance in the range between Rs 900 and Rs 925 in November 2010, Jet Airways resumed its long-term downtrend. Following a sideways consolidation phase between February and August in the band between Rs 400 and Rs 515, the stock breached southwards.
Subsequently, the stock landed at its long-term significant support at around Rs 220 in early October and is reversing upwards. The stock is currently testing its immediate short-term resistance (late August trough) at Rs 253. Decisive jump above this level will give short-term targets of Rs 285 and Rs 308.
Short-term investors can hold the stock with stop-loss at Rs 230. Medium-term investors can hold the stock with deeper stop-loss at Rs 215. Strong move beyond Rs 308 will take the stock higher to Rs 335, Rs 373 and Rs 400 in the medium-term.
Nevertheless, dive below Rs 215 will pull the stock down to Rs 178 or even further down to its long-term support at around Rs 130.
I got PFC (Power Finance Corporation) through the FPO (Follow-on Public Offer). Please advise if I can buy more shares now.
Srinivasan
PFC (Rs 155.1): In our previous review of this stock in July this year, we had mentioned that inability to move above Rs 250 will mean that the stock can head lower to Rs 150 or Rs 125 over the ensuing months. In line with our view, the stock failed to rally and declined to Rs 150 and then found support just above Rs 125, at Rs 130 in late August 2011.
The support zone between Rs 125 and Rs 130 is an important zone from a long-term perspective. The short-term trend is a sideways consolidation. Investors with higher penchant for risk can consider buying the stock with stop-loss at Rs 125. Strong penetration of resistance at Rs 170 will lift PFC higher to the Rs 215-220 range in the ensuing quarters. The next target is at Rs 250.
However, breach of Rs 125 downwards will reinforce the downtrend that has been in place from its lifetime peak of Rs 383; the stock can roll down to Rs 107 or even to Rs 86 in the long-term.
Kindly let me know the long-term prospects of CanFin Homes and MTNL.
Shantha.D. Pai
CanFin Homes (Rs 103.7): After retracing 61.8 per cent Fibonacci retracement level of the prior up move (from the October 2008 low of Rs 37.5 to August 2010 peak of Rs 172), CanFin Homes took support at its long-term support zone between Rs 85 and Rs 90 during February to August this year, and bounced upwards. Subsequent supports are at Rs 77 and Rs 67.
The stock has been on an intermediate-term downtrend from its August 2010 peak. This trend remains in place as long as the stock trades below Rs 130. Strong weekly close above this level will strengthen the stock's long-term uptrend and take the stock higher to Rs 150 and then to Rs 170. Nonetheless the stock has immediate resistance at Rs 110.
MTNL (Rs 30.9): MTNL has been on a long-term downtrend from its January 2008 peak of Rs 219. Medium- as well as short-term trends are also down for the stock. However, after recording an all-time low at Rs 29.15 on October 24, the stock found support around this level and is on the brink of reversing, triggered by positive divergence in weekly indicators. Only a strong move above Rs 37.5 will signal that the stock has bottomed out, and it can then rally to Rs 41, Rs 48 and 52.
Next significant resistance is at Rs 68. Emphatic breakthrough of long-term key resistance at Rs 90 will reverse the stock's intermediate-term downtrend and lift the stock higher to Rs 110 or Rs 124.
Conversely, inability to rally beyond Rs 37.5 will pull the stock down to Rs 29. On a breach of immediate support level at around Rs 29, will drag the stock to new lows.
I purchased GMR Infrastructure at Rs 70, and Engineers India at Rs 300. I see the prices of both the stocks going down. Could you please let me know the latest supports and resistances?
Pavan
GMR Infrastructure (Rs 27.7): Ever since peaking out in June 2009 at Rs 91, the stock resumed its long-term downtrend. Trends in all time frames are down for the stock, and it is still in the bear's grip. Nevertheless, last week the stock found support just above its long-term support level of Rs 23 (October 2008 trough), and bounced up sharply.
The stock has resistance ahead at Rs 30; a conclusive penetration of this level will take the stock northwards to Rs 34 and Rs 37. Strong rally above its long-term resistance at around Rs 45 is needed to alter its intermediate-term downtrend and take the stock higher to Rs 55-58 range.
Investors can consider switching from the stock in rallies. Tumble below Rs 23 will drag the stock down to Rs 20 and to fresh lows.
Engineers India (Rs 239.8): After peaking out in May 2010 at Rs 538, the stock has been on an intermediate-term downtrend forming lower peaks and lower troughs. In April this year, the stock resumed its downtrend after testing important long-term resistance in the band between Rs 310 and Rs 315.
Since then, it has been on a medium-term downtrend. The stock has retraced 61.8 per cent Fibonacci retracement level of its prior up move from October 2008 low of Rs 50, to its May 2010 peak. Investors with long-term perspective can hold the stock with stop-loss at Rs 215.
A reversal from current levels will face resistance at Rs 260, Rs 290 and Rs 315. Decisive breakthrough of Rs 315 will pave the way for an up move to Rs 350-360 band in the long-term; investors can take partial profits off the table at that juncture. On the other hand, fall below Rs 215 can pull the stock down to Rs 180 and then to Rs 150 levels in the ensuing months.
Please review the long-term prospect of Dishman Pharmaceuticals and Chemicals as earlier stated (May 2011).
Mukesh Kumar
Dishman Pharmaceuticals and Chemicals (Rs 53): In our review of this stock in May this year, we had mentioned that there are no signs of reversal in the stock as yet, and it is likely to breach a low at Rs 87, and decline to the 2004 low of Rs 72 or even Rs 61. Investors should have divested their holding on a decline below Rs 87.
In line with our expectation, the stock breached Rs 87 and continued to decline. It has even declined below Rs 61 to register its lifetime low at Rs 52.3 on October 28. The stock is in a longer-term downtrend. Upward reversal will encounter resistances at Rs 61, Rs 72 and Rs 87.
Dynamic move above Rs 87 will take the stock higher to Rs 110 or Rs 120. Failure to surpass Rs 87 will reinforce the downtrend. Investors can make use of rally to switch out of the stock. Only on a strong close above Rs 250 will reverse the long-term downtrend.

Engineers India: Buy:: Business Line

Visit http://indiaer.blogspot.com/ for complete details �� ��


Investors with a three-year perspective can consider buying the stock of Engineers India. Catering to the entire hydrocarbon value chain, dominant market position through its unique business mix of high-end engineering consultancy and turnkey projects, and the ability to quickly tap new business opportunities make Engineers India a superior play in the engineering and infrastructure space.
At the current market price of Rs 280, the share trades at 11 times its expected per share earnings for FY-13. The price is close to the follow-on offer price in July 2010. A marginal premium to peers is justified on account of superior profit margins, return on equity as well as zero-debt status. Investors can consider accumulating the stock on any steep declines linked to broad markets.

UNIQUE PLAY

Engineers India is a play on the technology and engineering segments in the oil and gas and other infrastructure industries. The company's presence in the lucrative hydrocarbon industry spanning commissioning of refinery and petrochemical units, consultancy services for offshore and onshore oil and gas and laying of pipelines have provided it a market leadership in the local arena. Besides, it has emerged as a sound competitor for overseas projects.
This has led to the company enjoying high EBITDA margins hovering over 20 per cent; such profitability is uncommon in the infrastructure space. With hardly any peers with similar skill sets in the domestic arena, Engineers India can be expected to be a beneficiary of upgradation and capacity additions in the refinery space under the Plans. Such activity is set to increase by 25 per cent (capacity) in the 12th Plan.

CHANGING MIX

Engineers India is known to have lumpy revenues across quarters as a result of its consultancy division accounting for a chunk of revenues compared with lump sum turnkey (called LSTK or engineering procurement and construction) projects. In FY-07, for instance, consultancy accounted for as much as 85 per cent of the revenues. This has now shrunk to 40 per cent in FY-11. There are both benefits and disadvantages to such a change in mix.
For one, consultancy jobs offer high margins in the range of 30-40 per cent, this explains why the company has so far enjoyed superior operating margins. This shift towards EPC would mean a reduction in profit margins. EBITDA margins for FY-11, in fact, fell 2 percentage points to 23 per cent over a year ago.
On the positive side, focus on EPC projects provides a wider universe and larger opportunity for Engineers India to participate in projects that it was only advising earlier. It has also helped the company to diversify in infrastructure and water and waste management projects.

SURGE IN ORDER FLOWS

A faster increase in top line growth could, perhaps, ensure that margins do not suffer much. The EPC segment's contribution to revenue would also be relatively steady, based on the proportion of work completed. Revenue has, in fact, grown at a compounded annual rate of 55 per cent to Rs 2823 crore in FY-11, since EPC contracts saw a gradual increase in sales contribution over the last four years. Revenues remained volatile over 2005-08 when consultancy dominated income flow.
The above shift in focus also resulted in a surge in order flows by 166 per cent in FY-11, taking the order book to Rs 7,500 crore or 2.6 times sales in the latest ended fiscal. The mix of 65:35 in favour of EPC and consultancy can be expected to provide sound top line growth and support to margins as well.
Engineers India, interestingly, has a slightly varied approach to its EPC/LSTK contracts. Called Open Book Estimate convertible to LSTK, the contracts entail a quick preliminary design that would suffice for entering into a contract.
This is said to reduce the bidding period, after which prices governed by market conditions are decided. Design too is left open to change. This is a key positive as contractors often reach a deadlock with owners of projects due to freezing of designs and any changes required at a later stage. This often leads to cost-overruns and delays; an issue prevalent in projects awarded by the likes of ONGC or refineries.
The OBE-LSTK combination, therefore, balances the requirements of owners of the project as well as the contractor. Such a strategy has helped the company deal with high-end projects without major disputes.
Engineers India has re-entered the fertiliser space, bagging a brown-field project and has also plans to tap in to opportunities in the nuclear and gas distribution space. With sufficient accruals and debt-free status, an approach of taking strategic stakes in the above businesses may help the company cautiously test waters in new areas
