Mahindra & Mahindra Sowing seeds for next harvest Initiate with Outperform, TP of Rs740, upside of 22% We initiate coverage on Mahindra & Mahindra (M&M) with an Outperform rating and target price of Rs740, providing 22% upside from current levels. We rate M&M as a top pick in the Indian auto space. With leadership in the utility vehicle and tractor segments and a robust estimated 13% CAGR in earnings over the next three years, at 9.3x core auto FY12E PER, we think M&M remains one of the most attractively valued stocks in our coverage universe.

Strong brands, new products to drive growth in auto space Strong products catering to all consumer segments, increasing urban demand backed by bank financing and benign competition, should help M&M’s utility vehicle segment to grow at a CAGR of 14% over next couple of years. In the light commercial vehicle (LCV) space, recently launched Gio and Maxximo have garnered good response and should help the segment grow by 40% in the FY11.

Tractor segment to benefit from Punjab Tractor merger We expect the farm equipment segment (FES) to see 13-15% p.a. growth in the coming years, supported by rising rural income and increasing agricultural credit. M&M recently launched a new small tractor, targeting the small and marginal farmers. With tractor penetration of only 1%, the segment has strong growth prospects and could provide significant upside to volume assumptions. M&M’s dealer and vendor rationalisation programs post the merger of Punjab Tractor should also improve tractor business profitability in the medium term.

The company has also invested ~US$1bn in setting up a new plant, which should support its auto business expansion for the next 5 to 7 years.

Mahindra and Mahindra (M&M) Company profile Mahindra & Mahindra is the flagship company of the Mahindra group. It is

India's leading utility vehicle (55% market share) and tractor manufacturer (40% market share). The company has recently made an entry into the two-wheeler segment and the medium and heavy commercial vehicle space, which will see it emerge as a full-range player with a presence in almost every segment of the automobile industry. Over the years the company has also diversified into various sectors such as IT, financial services, automotive components, real estate, etc.

Sowing seeds for next harvest Initiate with Outperform We initiate on Mahindra & Mahindra (M&M) with an Outperform rating and target price of Rs740, providing ~22% upside from current levels. The company has strong brands in the key bread-and-butter businesses, i.e., utility vehicles and tractors. With a robust 13% CAGR in earnings expected over the next three years, at 9.3x core auto FY12E PER, M&M strikes us as one of the most attractively valued stocks in our coverage universe.

Strong brands, new products to drive growth in auto space M&M has a significant presence in the utility vehicle and the light commercial vehicle segments through its auto division. We expect overall auto volumes to grow at a CAGR of 15.5% for next 3 years. The key factors supporting the growth are:

Strong brands in the utility vehicle space catering to all consumer segments. M&M is the only player with products spread across the spectrum, catering to both the rural populace and high-end urban segments.

Increasing urban demand for auto products, backed by higher bank financing

Key new products, Gio and Maxximo, launched in the LCV segment

Tractor segment to benefit from Punjab Tractor merger Mahindra’s Farm Equipment Sector is one of the world’s top tractor brands and has been the undisputed market leader in India for 25 years (FY10 market share of 41%). The company has consolidated its leadership position in the tractor space (53% of EBIT) with the acquisition of Punjab Tractors. We expect the tractor segment to witness 13-15% p.a. growth in the coming years, supported by the following key factors:

Increasing rural wealth due to rising minimum support prices and larger spending by government on rural development schemes and employment guarantee schemes

Expanding credit availability through private and public sector banks

Rising trend of tractors being used for commercial purposes like transportation of material over short distances, utilization for construction activities, to ferry water tankers etc

M&M has also recently launched a new small tractor, Yuvraj, targeting the bottom of the pyramid, i.e. small and marginal farmers. With tractor penetration of only 1%, the segment has strong growth prospects and can provide significant upside to volume assumptions. Further M&M’s dealer and vendor rationalisation programs post the merger of Punjab Tractor should improve tractor business profitability in the medium term

New businesses to add value in the medium term M&M has recently entered the US$7.5bn Indian M&HCV segment through a JV with US based Navistar Inc (NAV US, US$51, not rated) and has forayed into the two-wheeler space through acquisition of assets of Kinetic Motors (KNH IN, Rs20, not rated). Further it plans to enter the US light truck market with the Scorpio pick-up. Acceptance of the company’s products in these categories, we believe, will drive growth in the medium term. The company has also invested ~US$1bn in setting up a new plant, which should support company’s auto business expansion for the next 5 to 7 years.

Solid earnings growth in coming years We forecast the company’s earnings to grow at a CAGR of 13% over the next three years, backed by volume growth of 15%. The existing strong product portfolio in the tractor and utility vehicle spaces, along with key new product launches (Gio and Maxximo) in the LCV segment should drive this growth.

Strong brands, new products to drive growth in auto space M&M’s automotive business (57% of revenues and 47% of EBIT) remains on a strong footing, with leading brands across segments. We expect overall auto volumes to grow at a CAGR of 15.5% for the next 3 years. Recently launched new products in the LCV space and robust demand in the utility vehicle segment, on the back of improving consumer sentiment and easy availability of bank finance, should drive this growth.

M&M has a significant presence in the utility vehicle and the light commercial vehicle segments through its auto division. The company has improved its position in the three-wheeler space through new model launches in the last year. M&M has also entered the two-wheeler space through acquisition of assets of Kinetic Motors, garnering ~6% market share in the scooter segment in the first year of operation. The company has a miniscule share in the car space, where it was present through a JV with Renault (RNO FP, €30.42, Neutral, TP: €41.00, Jens Schattner) until last month with a single product, an entry-level sedan–the Logan.

Leader in utility vehicles for over a decade; to maintain market share M&M has been a leader in the Indian utility vehicle space (current ~270k units pa market) for over a decade. On the back of a strong product portfolio, the company has been able to increase its market share in FY10 to 55% from 47% in FY09. M&M is probably the only company which has reasonably successful products in the utility vehicle space for every consumer segment. Key brands in the M&M utility vehicle portfolio are:

We expect the UV segment to grow by 13-15% over next couple of years. The key reasons why we believe demand will witness good growth in the UV space are as follows:

Revival in overall economic growth outlook and improving consumer sentiment, especially amongst the salaried class

Widening of income tax slabs (rates) should help to offset increase in overall cost of ownership due to a rise in excise duty, raw material prices, increased costs of meeting new emission norms, fuel prices and higher interest rates

Increasing financial penetration, which currently stands at ~70%, should help growth rates as both private and public banks remain focused on the four-wheeler space.

Demand for utility vehicles for commercial use should be supported by improved business confidence and higher profitability of companies. The recovery in the business environment for IT and BPO companies and growth in tourist arrivals should also be positive for UV demand.

With no significant increase in competition expected for the key models of M&M, we expect the company to easily maintain its leading market share position in the UV space. Further the company is working on an all-new utility vehicle which is likely to hit markets in the next couple of years, and it will be introducing first diesel compact pick-up truck in the US market early next year. Success of these products should help the company to significantly grow its UV business in the medium term.

New products to drive growth in LCV space Around 95% of the M&M total LCV volumes is accounted for by the less-than-3.5ton category, one of the fastest growing segments in the Indian automobile space over the last five years (~30% CAGR). The segment has witnessed strong growth post the introduction of India’s first mini-truck with a sub one-ton payload, the Tata Ace, in May 2005. The product took away business from three-wheelers as it provided better economies to fleet operators for last mile transport. Further with development of road infrastructure, the hub-and-spoke model gained importance, leading to strong demand in the heavy truck segment on the one hand and for small LCVs for intra-city transport on the other. However, the success of the Ace also meant a decline in market share for M&M.

Source: Company data, Macquarie Research, June 2010 Source: Company data, Macquarie Research, June 2010

M&M has introduced many new products over the last couple of years to take on competition in the LCV space. The latest product launches, Gio and Maxximo, we believe should help the company increase its market share significantly from current levels and will be the key drivers of growth in the LCV space for M&M.

M&M created a new category, the compact truck segment, with the launch of the ‘Gio’ in October 2009. The product has a payload of 500kg, with maintenance and running costs similar to that of a three-wheeler and safety and comfort of a four-wheeler. The vehicle is also priced attractively at ~Rs170k. Further M&M launched the Maxximo, in direct competition to the segment leader Ace in February 2010. The product has a higher payload of 850kg and relatively better fuel economy at ~20kmpl, but at the same price as the market leader. Both these products have gotten good response and we expect the company’s LCV segment to see growth of 36% next year, driven largely by these new products.

Three-wheelers to grow in line with industry The domestic three-wheeler market has grown at a 10% CAGR over the last six years, while M&M has been able to grow at over 20% in the same period. Thus the company has increased its market share by over 350bps in the three-wheeler market. Today M&M is the third-largest player in the domestic three-wheeler space, with market share of around 10%.

Growth in the three-wheeler space is largely driven by the passenger segment, a CAGR of 16% over the last six years, as compared to decline of 2% in the goods segment. The decline in the goods segment was mainly due to increasing usage of low tonnage four-wheelers for last-mile transportation. Mahindra’s presence in three-wheeler space was largely in the goods segment till it launched the Alpha range of three-seater passenger vehicles in early 2008. Today around 60% of company’s three-wheeler volumes comes from the passenger space.

FES to benefit from Punjab Tractor merger M&M has consolidated its leadership position in the tractor space (53% of EBIT) with the acquisition of Punjab Tractors. We expect the tractor segment to witness 13-15% p.a. growth in the coming years, supported by rising rural income and increasing agricultural credit. M&M has recently launched a new small tractor, Yuvraj, targeting the small and marginal farmers. With tractor penetration of only 1%, the segment has strong growth prospects and can provide significant upside to volume assumptions.

Mahindra’s Farm Equipment Sector is one of the world’s top tractor brands, and has been the undisputed market leader in India for 25 years (FY10 market share of 41%). It is also the only tractor company to win the Deming Application Prize and the Japan Quality Medal, two of the highest quality accolades that can be won by any organization. Mahindra Tractors has two JVs in China which manufacture tractors for the growing Chinese market, as well as export tractors to the US and other western nations.

Tractor demand supported by rising rural incomes Total Tractor sales volume reached 440k units in FY10, with domestic volumes growing at a 14% CAGR since FY04 to over 402k units in FY10. While there were fears that tractor sales could be affected by severe drought last year, we believe that tractor growth was supported by increasing financial penetration, low growth in last few years and improved farm income supported by rising minimum support prices and higher crop output for the rabi season.

Some of the key factors that we believe are likely to benefit tractor sales in the medium term are as follows:

Increasing production + Rising MSP = Higher rural wealth: Key wheat and paddy production has seen a steady increase over the last few years, and the government-announced Minimum Support Prices (MSP) for key crops, like paddy, wheat, sugarcane, groundnut etc, have increased at a CAGR of 11-12% from 2003-04. This has significantly contributed to rural wealth. The increase in MSP alone has been more than the increase in tractor realisations, up by ~7-8%, thus making tractor usage more affordable.

Government’s rural development initiatives: Increasingly, government policy decisions have been directed at having inclusive growth, and the rural population has been a major beneficiary of various schemes. Key among these initiatives have been:

⇒ NREGS: The National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (NREGS) assures a minimum 100 days employment in a year at a minimum wage of INR 100. Up to 2009-10, around 29m households have benefited from the scheme and over Rs920bn have been disbursed.

⇒ Farm loan waiver: The agriculture debt waiver announced by the government in 2008 has helped bring down Non Performing Assets (NPA) levels of banks and has also provided access to valuable credit to the farming sector. Loan waiver disbursements are pegged at Rs710bn.

⇒ Increasing rural development spending under various schemes like Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY), Rajiv Gandhi Grameen Viduytikaran Yojana (RGGVY), Indira Awaas Yojana (IAY), etc also have an indirect positive impact on rural income.

NREGS improving feasibility for tractors: The NREGS has indirectly lead to significant increase in wage rates, even for the farming sector, as people in rural areas have better employment opportunities, thus automatically making use of tractors more economical.

Increased disbursals by banks for rural credit: Governments emphasis on increasing bank credit through priority-sector lending has played a crucial role in boosting tractor demand, as around 75-80% of tractors are financed. Disbursement to agriculture by banks has increased at a CAGR of over 20% since 2004 and is targeted to reach Rs3,250bn for 2010. Agriculture credit usage for farm mechanisation has been increasing steadily over the years thus improving farmer’s ability to buy tractors. While financing norms were made more stringent over the last few years due to increasing NPAs, norms have been relaxed and rates have been reduced by banks in early FY10.

Fig 27 Increasing agriculture credit supports tractor demand

Increasing spend on irrigation: Indian agriculture is still dependant on the monsoon due to low irrigation facilities. Irrigation intensity is estimated to be below 50%. Availability of irrigation facilities is a key driver for tractor demand, as it ensures water supply for harvesting and thereby income. Through the various five-year plans, the government has tried to expand irrigation facilities, along with consolidating existing systems, for increasing the production of food grains. This in turn should lead to greater demand for tractors.

Use of tractors for commercial activities: In rural areas, tractors are increasingly being utilized in many activities other than farming, including the transport of materials and passengers over short distances, construction activities, to ferrying water tankers etc. Further, with labour costs rising, even farmers that traditionally hired labour rent tractors for a certain period of time. All these factors have helped to increase hourly tractor rentals by 20-25% in the past two years and the number of days a tractor can be employed during offseason periods has increased substantially, thus leading to higher tractor demand.

Infrastructure investments & allied activities aiding rural income: Lastly, increasing investments being made by governments, companies and co-operative societies in improving rural infrastructure, storage etc have lead to better realisation and lowered overall wastage of agriculture produce. Rural wealth has also increased due to income from other occupations like horticulture, poultry, fish farming, floriculture etc.

We believe that all of the above factors will have a positive impact on farmers’ income in the medium to long term. Given the normal monsoon expected in the current year, the tractor industry should see strong growth of ~12-14% in the current fiscal.

New products to drive growth, targeting bottom of pyramid M&M has refurbished its entire range of tractors in the last year and has launched few key models in the domestic and international areas which should support growth in the tractor segment. Key amongst these are:

Yuvraj 215 – targeting farmers with small land holdings

Swaraj 843 – High HP tractors

Export market – compact tractors and high HP tractors

The Yuvraj 215, which has haulage capacity of 1.5tons, is specially designed for farmers with small land holdings. Through this product, M&M is looking to expand the tractor market at the bottom end of the pyramid. It is expected to cater to the demand from small and marginal farmers suffering from a lack of financing options and affordable products and looking to upgrade from power tillers and bullocks. According to a study by the NSSO, small (2.5-5 acres of land) and marginal farmers (<2.5 acres of land) account for 82% of the 82m farm households in India.

Fig 30 Yuvraj–targeting bottom of pyramid

Source: Company data, Macquarie Research, June 2010

M&M is currently test marketing the tractor in small numbers in Gujarat and then plans to sell it across the country in 16-18 months. We believe that this product could lead to strong volume growth in the medium term, as overall tractor penetration in this segment is only ~1%.

Competitive intensity declining, M&M to benefit from PTL acquisition The tractor industry has seen a couple of acquisitions in the last few years, reducing the competitive intensity. M&M has taken over Punjab Tractors (PTL), whilst TAFE has acquired Eicher Motors. Competition is unlikely to increase in the medium term as no major player is expected to enter the space. Also, the impact of foreign players has been fairly limited, as they lack strong products in the lower-horse-power segments that dominate India’s tractor market.

PTL acquisition benefits M&M significantly

M&M acquired Punjab Tractors (PTL) in 2007 by buying out 43% stake from the Actis group and the Burman family for around Rs10bn, later merging the company with its farm equipment division in August 2008. PTL sold its products under the Swaraj brand, which had good a reputation in market and M&M also added products in the 50HP+ category through this acquisition. M&M has improved its market share position post acquisition of Punjab Tractors and currently dominates the domestic tractors market, with ~41% market share. It commands over 50% market share in the South and East markets and enjoys a strong position in West and North India, with respective market shares of 42% and 36%. Further, the company also improved its position in the largest 31-40HP category.

Thus the PTL acquisition has strengthened M&M’s position in the key North Indian market, as well as in the lower HP market, where it was weak. The PTL manufacturing plants and foundry facility had lower utilisation, which should help M&M to improve its cost structure. M&M is also looking at dealer and vendor rationalisations, which should improve overall tractor business profitability in the medium term

New initiatives to add value in medium term M&M has entered into new business areas like Medium and Heavy Commercial Vehicles (M&HCV), two-wheelers, aerospace, etc and has enhanced its presence in defence and auto ancillaries, all of which could add significant value in the medium term. The company has also recently inaugurated a new plant at Chakan which should take care of company’s expansion plans in the automotive business for the next 5 to 7 years.

M&HCV – strong growth prospects in medium term In 2005, M&M and International Truck and Engine Corporation — the operating company of Navistar Inc (NAV US; $53.15; not rated) — entered into a JV to manufacture light, medium and heavy commercial vehicles for India as well as export markets. The joint venture aims to be present in every segment of the commercial vehicle market, from 3.5 tonne Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW) to 49 tonne GVW, with variants of passenger transport, cargo and specialized load applications. These products will be manufactured at M&M’s new Chakan plant, which has initial annual production capacity of 50,000 medium and heavy commercial Vehicles. M&M has a 51% stake in two JV’s, Mahindra Navistar Automotives Ltd and Mahindra Navistar Engines Ltd.

Gradual roll out of product range

M&M Navistar has so far displayed different products in the 25T, 31T, 40T and 49T segments. The company plans to introduce its entire product range in the next couple of years as follows:

Commercial launch of 25T is expected by June 2010 followed by 31T.

40 & 49T products by end of the current fiscal year.

Lower tonnage vehicles will be launched in due course of time from FY12

Thus by FY13 the company plans to have all products in the market right from 9T to 49T in both the trucks and bus segments and to emerge as a full-range commercial vehicle player.

Building distribution network, increasing localisation

The company is setting up an alternative distribution network for the truck venture, after having added ~100 new dealers. It may also look at its existing dealerships in rural/semi-urban areas as points of servicing for its trucks. M&M is also ensuring that designing of the CV product range is done to fulfil the requirements specific to Indian business, with the technological support of Navistar. Further the company aims to have high localisation levels so as to ensure that pricing remains competitive.

Strong growth prospects in medium term

We believe that it will be challenging for M&M to make inroads into the Rs350bn Indian CV space which is currently a virtual duopoly. However with strong economic growth and government’s focus on road development, the space provides strong medium-to-long-term-growth opportunities for M&M. Having a strong technical partner, good understanding of local markets, wide distribution and service networks, and ensuring products meet local needs and aim for high levels of localisation should aid the company’s efforts to gain respectable market share in the CV space in the next 3-5 years.

Mahindra two-wheeler – entry through acquisition of Kinetic M&M entered the Indian two-wheeler market by acquiring the business assets of Kinetic Motor for Rs1.1bn in July 2008. M&M holds an 80% stake in the new company – Mahindra Kinetic Scooters and Motorcycles Ltd, with Kinetic accounting for the remaining 20%. The company has state-of-the-art manufacturing facility at Pithampur, Madhya Pradesh, with a capacity to assemble 500-600k units p.a. on a three-shift basis. Taiwan’s Sanyang Industry Company Limited (SYM) Sanyang Industry Co Ltd (2206 TT, Not Rated) is a technical partner in the alliance. M&M has also recently acquired Engines Engineering, Italy, specialised in designing two-wheelers.

Mahindra Two-Wheelers is currently present in scooters segment and has already launched three 125cc scooters since acquisition.

Mahindra Rodeo – specifically for males

Mahindra Duro – targeting the entire family

Mahindra Flyte – specifically for women commuters

Post acquisition and launch of new products, M&M has been able to steadily improve volumes for the scooter business. M&M’s total scooter sales for FY10 stood at over 70k units, more than double of what Kinetic was able to sell in FY08 prior to acquisition. The company’s market share now stands at ~6% in the domestic scooter segment.

Management expects strong growth in coming years

M&M targets double-digit growth for the two-wheeler business for the next couple of years. The company also plans to enter the motorcycle space in the current fiscal year. We expect M&M to take time to find its foothold in the two-wheeler space, especially faced with challenges from well-entrenched players like Hero Honda (HH IN, Rs2013, UP, TP: Rs1630) and Bajaj Auto (BJAUT IN, Rs2284, UP, TP:Rs1850). However, given M&M’s track record of new launches, good understanding of local market in particular rural markets and strong distribution and service networks, the returns on its small investments may be substantial over the medium term.

Renewed focus on defence Mahindra Defence Systems provides total solutions for the entire range of light combat / armoured vehicles and their derivatives for defence and security forces. It also addresses specific segments of the Government's import-substitution programmes like small arms and sea mines. Mahindra’s defence business is targeting revenue of Rs20bn in five years from Rs1 bn currently, which we believe is achievable given India’s huge defence spending. India’s total defence allocation currently standing at ~US$30bn and there is a separate allocation for Para-military and police forces thus providing a huge market. Further, the current offset clause, which mandates 30% of the overall expenditure in defence sector from a foreign company to be sourced from Indian companies, itself provides around US$10bn market over the next five years.

JV’s and new plant to support growth in defence

In March 2009, M&M inaugurated a defence-vehicle manufacturing plant in Haryana’s Prithla region. The Rs400m facility is expected to roll out 200 vehicles in a year’s time. In Nov 2009, M&M (74% stake) entered into a JV with BAE Systems (UK) (BAE LN; not rated; 321p) to focus on the manufacture of up-armoured light vehicles, specialist military vehicles, mine protected vehicles, artillery systems and other selected land system weapons and the upgrades. The JV is focusing on the India’s artillery system requirement which currently is ~US$4bn.

Entered aerospace, boat manufacturing and electric vehicle space Mahindra Odyssea

M&M entered the fibreglass power boat and catamaran industry through its product offering Mahindra Odyssea in 2009. In Feb 2009, Mahindra Odyssea unveiled its 22-foot and 33-foot fibreglass power boats at the Mumbai International Boat Show. Initially the company is targeting custom-designed fibreglass power boats ranging 20-40 feet and then expand into cabin cruisers and catamarans in the future. Mahindra Odyssea’s products are expected to attract the paramilitary and defence forces.

Mahindra Reva

M&M recently acquired a controlling stake in electric car manufacturer Reva and established Mahindra Reva Electric Vehicle Company. M&M will own 55.2% equity in Mahindra Reva by a combination of equity purchase from the promoters and a fresh equity infusion of over Rs450m into the company. Currently, Reva sells electric cars in 24 countries and has around 3500 vehicle on the road. A new manufacturing facility at Bangalore has expanded company’s production capacity from 6,000 to 30,000 vehicles.

Leveraging Reva’s technology for UV products in medium term

M&M will look to utilising REVA's technology for its products, including UVs, three-wheelers and mini-trucks. Further, M&M’s distribution network will be used to market REVA's products across the globe. This is a small investment from M&M’s overall perspective, but it gives the company a good start in the electric vehicle field, as REVA is a proven leader; in the medium term the company can benefit from leveraging REVA’s technology. The long -erm potential of electric vehicles can be big, and M&M expects the electric car market in India to grow to 80,000 cars by 2020, with Mahindra Reva accounting for at least 20,000.

Chakan to meet capacity needs for the medium term In March 2010, M&M inaugurated its new auto manufacturing plant in the industrial hub of Chakan in Maharashtra. Set up with a phased investment of over Rs40bn, the plant is spread across 700 acres. The plant’s initial capacity is slated at 300k vehicles p.a, 50k units of M&HCV and 250k for the rest of yhe automotive division, and it can be scaled up further to meet future growth. Thus Mahindra Chakan will manufacture Mahindra’s entire range of automotive products, from the 0.75-tonne Maxximo to the 49-tonne Mahindra Navistar truck. The company’s new SUV and Pik-Up range and product line for the US market will also be manufactured at this facility. These investments should help M&M meet all their automotive capacity needs for the next 5-6 years. Also such investments at one single location would provide flexibility to the company to manage production of its various new products and also provide benefits from economies of scale.

Solid earnings growth for coming years We estimate the company’s earnings to grow at CAGR of 13% over the next three years, backed by volume growth of 15% but seeing a minor decline in margins. We are 5-7% ahead of consensus earnings estimates, mainly on account of higher volume assumptions.

Volume growth to be supported by new products We expect M&M volume to grow by 15% over the next three years. We estimate the utility and tractor segments to witness sales growth of ~11-15%, in-line with industry growth rates. The three-wheeler segment is expected to see lower growth as there is a shift to more robust lo- tonnage four-wheelers in the goods segment. With two key new product launches (Gio and Maxximo), we estimate the LCV segment will show solid growth of over 25%. Better-than-expected response to these products and acceptance of the Scorpio pick-up in the US market could be a big driver to our overall volume growth assumptions.

Margins to decline due to rising RM costs, earnings growth robust We expect increasing prices of key raw materials like steel, aluminium and tyres to negatively impact margins in the coming fiscal year. However with strong growth in volumes, we expect some of the impact to be negated by the positive effect of operating leverage. Further, with a strong product portfolio in both the UV and tractor space and relatively subdued competition, we believe that some of the cost hikes will be passed on to consumers. Thus, overall we expect operating margins to go down by ~50-60bps in FY11. The impact could be larger if RBI becomes aggressive in tightening interest rates, as this may limit company’s capacity to increase prices. Further, taking into account the increased depreciation on account of the ramp-up of new Chakan plant, we expect overall earnings to grow by ~14% over the next three years.

Robust balance sheet, comfortable cash flows despite huge capex M&M has planned huge capital expenditure of Rs70bn over the next three years (including investments in JVs and subsidiaries). Most of this will be on new plant at Chakan and new product developments. Despite this huge capex spending, we do not see any issue with the cash-flow situation, as the standalone business generates around Rs20-25bn of operating cash flows on annual basis and the company has over Rs17bn in cash and liquid investments. Further, the company’s total debt-to-equity ratio stands at very comfortable 0.4:1, and thus even if there is any significant decline in operating cash flows, the company can easily manage its investments through some additional debt.

There are no directly comparable companies with a presence in both the auto and tractor segments; thus, we have taken the entire group of large-cap Indian auto names and also regional players in UV, M&HCV and tractor spaces for comparison. We see that M&M appears very attractively valued not only with respect to Indian auto companies, but also compared to auto companies from China, Korea and Japan,.

Key risks and catalysts Key risks Increase in taxes on diesel vehicles: The Kirit Parikh committee report on oil sector

reforms has suggested an excise duty of Rs 80,000 on diesel vehicles. If implemented, the recommendation is expected to adversely affect M&M as it would lead to higher costs of diesel-based products and hence impact demand for same. However, the probability of the committee recommendation being carried out in its current form is low, with the industry players opposing it and putting their suggestions through the industry forum to the government for consideration.

Significant jump in raw material prices: An increase in the prices of key raw materials like steel and aluminium would lead to decline in margins and profitability. However with a leadership position in key segments and a strong product portfolio, M&M should be able to pass on most of the rise in prices on to customers and thus reduce the impact on margins.

Faster than expected hardening of interest rates: An increase in interest rates would negatively impact M&M’s sales, since around 70-80% of the tractor and UV sales by the company are purchased via the financing option. Further, this can also limit the company’s ability to increase prices to offset rising raw material prices. However, our economists expect a gradual increase in interest rates, which can be absorbed.

Lower demand due to less than normal monsoon: M&M tractor sales and also sales of key products like Bolero in the automotive division can be affected if the monsoon is less than normal or its distribution affects rural income. While the Indian meteorological department has forecasted a normal monsoon, two continuous years of drought can severely impact rural spending.

Managing diverse business: M&M is well-diversified and is entering new businesses and markets, like M&HCV, two-wheelers and the US. This clearly adds to the complexity of the business and requires strong systems and management band-width. Though the company has so far been able to manage its operations well, a stretch in management band-width remains a risk.

Key catalysts Stronger-than-expected sales in the domestic market: A widening in the direct tax

slabs in India would lead to an increase in disposable income for consumers and might result in higher UV sales. Similarly, a bumper crop or acceptance of the new tractor targeted at the bottom of the pyramid can lead to stronger-than-expected growth in the tractor space.

New LCV products garnering significant market share: With the launch of Gio and Maxximo, M&M has entry into the fast-growing low-tonnage LCV segment. If the company manages to take away around 15-20% market share from the lone player in the segment, it can meaningfully add to overall volumes for the company.

Positive response from the US market: M&M is looking to launch the Scorpio pick up in the US by the end of 2010. The company has already tied up with a US distributor having alliances with around 300 dealers. A positive response from the 4.5m US light truck market will pave the way for an increase in revenue from international operations.

Appendix I: Tech Mahindra Crown gems Tech Mahindra, the ~44% owned IT services subsidiary of M&M, is one of the leading IT services outsourcing firms in India (amongst top 10 IT companies by market cap). It provides Telecom IT Services and Solutions to global communications industry, with a presence across the telecom value chain and operates through 16 regional offices and 11 delivery centres. The company, with a talent pool of ~30,000, has a long history of serving major global telecom service providers, with BT Group (BT/A LN, £1.32, Underperform, TP: £1.10, Guy Peddy) as the key customer. Although dependence on BT for business has reduced over the years (from 64.1% in FY07 to 48.2% in FY10), top ten clients still contribute ~82.3% of the revenue in FY10. We believe that, with continued focus on diversification, the share of non-BT revenue would continue to rise in the coming years.

As growing competition impacts profitability, telcos are more inclined towards reduction in time to market and shifting focus from managing services to offering value-added services. This, in turn, is encouraging outsourcing of telecom services and is likely to benefit Tech Mahindra over the medium and long term due to their long-term growth strategy and unique delivery capabilities.

Tech Mahindra has added ~6,000 employees over the last seven quarters with peak utilization rate of ~75% in 2Q’10. With traction of the business ramp-up improving due to a better macro outlook, we believe utilization rates will remain high in the medium term.

With an eye to diversifying its presence across verticals and expanding client base, the company has acquired 42.7% stake in scandal-ridden Satyam Computers (renamed Mahindra Satyam) in CY09 to gain foothold in the BFSI, manufacturing, healthcare and retail/travel/logistics verticals apart from its traditional stronghold of telecom. Since Satyam was poorly governed, Tech Mahindra is focusing on improving the operating matrix and cost rationalization in order to optimize the full potential of Satyam. As the customer stability and financial restatement concludes, Satyam could be a feather in Tech Mahindra’s cap, given its strong and diverse customer base, coupled with various fast-growing vertical capabilities.

Domestic tractor sales growth in FY10 is attributed to lower base in FY09 and rising rural wealth over the years. However, export growth was under pressure due to slow economic revival in developed nations, particularly the US, which accounted for more than 50% of total tractor exports from India.

In terms of HP, the lower HP segment up to 40HP dominates due to small farmsteads in India. The 31-40HP is the largest segment, accounting for 46% of the sales in FY10. Also foreign players have key products in the higher-HP segments and hence account for lower market share in overall tractor sales in India.

In terms of various states, Uttar Pradesh, with its emphasis on agriculture, accounts for 18% of domestic sales in FY10, followed by Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra and Rajasthan.
