Bajaj Electrical Limited (BEL) posted subdued 4QFY12 performance wherein weak revenue growth in fans and E&P overshadowed the strong growth registered by the lighting business. Volatile currency and input cost coupled with soaring interest cost weighed on profitability. Higher working capital and delayed execution of projects dented E&P margins, while moderation in demand, high input costs and rising competition kept the consumer durable business margins under tab. We expect BEL to continue to face challenges in both the businesses over the medium term. We prune our earnings estimates and downgrade the stock to Sell. Muted top-line growth: Revenues grew 8.1% to `10.6bn, aided by the 23% growth in the lighting business. The consumer durable segment logged mere 10.4% growth. While consumer appliances like mixer, toaster, induction cookers, water heaters, irons and the Morphy Richards brand posted strong growth of 20-35%, tepid growth in fans (6%) and decline in room cooler segment dragged overall growth. The E&P segments revenues dipped 2.2% owing to slow execution of projects. Margins continue to be under pressure: High RM cost and forex volatility took a toll on margins. Though the lighting business posted EBIT growth of 42%, the consumer durable segment margins were compressed resulting in EBIT declining by 8.7%. BEL imports many appliances from China on account of which it was hit by rupee depreciation (forex loss of `30mn for 4Q and `60mn for FY12). The Company had huge inventory pile up leading to 132% increase in the segments capital employed. The E&P segment was severely hit by high WC and rising interest cost causing 48% drop in EBIT. Overall, EBIDTA fell by ~13% to `862mn with EBIDTA margin dropping to 8.1% (10.1%). PAT fell by ~15% to `490mn burdened by high interest cost (up 58%). Debt as on Mar12, swelled to `1.9bn v/s `1.1bn as on Mar11.

E&P business still witnessing stress: The segments order book has been shrinking over the last one year and further declined during 4Q to `6.10bn as on Mar12, down 19% yoy. The slow pace of project awarding owing to macro headwinds is likely to impact the Sep11 segments revenue growth over ensuing quarters. Contribution of the segment fell to 27% 65.6 from 30% from a year earlier. We expect the business to struggle over the medium term, in 6.5 turn impacting overall RoCE and RoE.
10.1 Moderation in growth, profitability likely; downgrade to Sell: FY12 is the fifth 17.8 consecutive year when the companys RoAE has fallen (from 50.2% in FY08 to 19% in

FY12) and EBIDTAM has shrunk from 10.6% in FY08 to 7.7% in FY12. Of the three business segments, consumer durables and E&P (constituting 75% of total revenues) have been witnessing stress on the growth and margins fronts. Going ahead as well, we expect inflationary pressures, intensifying competition and tough business environment to cap growth. We forecast revenue and PAT growth of 9% and 20% respectively, for FY13 yielding EPS of `14.6 (`16.9 earlier). The stock trades at 18.2x and 14.7x FY12 and FY13 EEPS, respectively. We expect the stock to underperform over the medium term and recommend Sell, with a Target Price of `189, based on 13x FY13 EEPS. Exhibit 2: Key Indicators

Bajaj Electricals Limited/4QFY12 Result Update Business Review: Facing multiple headwinds Lighting - Strong traction: Of the three businesses, lighting is the only business that is doing well for BEL with strong revenue and profitability traction. Consumer Durables Dipping margins: The consumer durable business is growing well, but with lower profitability. Rising competition, volatile currency and high input cost are the key deterrents. BEL sourced 15% of the total products through imports (mainly from China), which reduced to 10% in FY12. Yet EBITM fell to 9.5% in FY12 from the peak of 12.7% in FY10. Fan business - Tapering growth: Another matter of concern for BEL is tapering growth in its fan business. Management cited moderation in fan demand due to the cold weather in 4Q. However, competitors Crompton and Orient posted healthy revenue growth of 10% and 23% respectively, in their fan business in 4Q. Havells is also growing fast, though on a low base. The long-term trend suggests competition is catching up in the fan market and impacting BEL, which is losing market share. Exhibit 6: Fan's share in Consumer Durable Segment

E&P Sharp decline likely: For FY12, the E&P business posted flat revenues, while EBIT halved to 3.2%. Order book of the segment stood at `6.1bn, down 18% yoy and signaling de-growth in revenues in FY13. We forecast 15% lower revenue for the segment, though margins are expected to improve.
