Ambuja Cement
Shree Cements net profitability for Q1FY15 (June year ending)

declined 36.8% YoY mainly due to higher depreciation charge (with
respect to new commissioning of new plants) and lower other
income. However, sales growth remained healthy in the quarter due
to better sales volumes growth in the cement and power segments
Cement revenues grew 30.5% to | 1418.4 crore (volumes up 18.6%
YoY to 3.8 MT, realisation was up 10.0% YoY to | 3736/tonne).
Power segment revenues grew 18.3% YoY to | 189.7 crore led by
17.0% YoY growth in volumes and 1.1% YoY improvement in
realisation to | 3.89/unit
While lower employee and other cost led to 118 bps YoY margin
expansion, higher depreciation charge with respect to new capacity
& lower other income led to 37% fall in net profit during the quarter
Healthy expansion plans to fuel future growth

We believe Shree Cement would continue to remain ahead of its peers in

terms of capacity expansion (to add 5 MT i.e. a third of its capacity over
the next two or three years) and operating efficiency leading to better
volume growth and higher profitability. The company has commissioned
a 2.0 MT grinding unit each in Ras, Rajasthan and Aurangabad, Bihar.
Shree Cement has also initiated work on the 2.5 MT integrated unit in
Raipur, Chhattisgarh. Further, the company is also setting up a 2.0 MT
plant in Uttar Pradesh. We think the managements proactive approach in
cost-saving initiatives and significant expansion plans will help it to join
the large capacity league sooner than later.
Best midcap player in terms of cost efficiency in northern India
Shree Cement is one of the low cost producers of cement in India with
total cement capacity of 17.5 MT. It has been operating at over ~90%
capacity utilisation for the last couple of years with healthy operating
margins vs. industry. Its cost efficiency emanates from high usage of
alternate fuel (pet coke), logistic advantage and self sufficiency in power
with capacity of 560 MW. Due to this, it earns highest EBITDA/tonne in the
industry. For FY14, the company generated higher EBITDA/tonne of
| 933/tonne vs. industry EBITDA/tonne of | 692/tonne mainly due to an
advantage of low cost production and best regional mix.
Better demand-supply dynamics to keep utilisation levels healthy in north
We expect utilisation of players in the north to stay healthy due to steady
growth of capacity addition. While we expect capacity to grow at a CAGR
of 6.4% in FY14-16E, we expect demand growth to remain ahead of
supply growth (i.e. at CAGR of 7.5% over FY14-16E). Shree Cement,
being a north player, will likely remain a key beneficiary of the same.
Timely commissioning of new capacity remains key value driver
Given the upcoming new capacity and healthy demand environment, we

expect profitability growth to remain healthy over the next two years. On
39.4 the back of timely expansion, we expect volume CAGR of 14.2% during
JY14-17E to 21.1 MT with healthy realisation growth. Further, a strong
balance sheet and better efficiency in terms of cost remains a key positive
for this company. We roll over our valuation base to FY17E and upgrade
our target price to | 9,850/share with a HOLD rating on the stock [i.e. at
13.5x FY17E EV/EBITDA, $205/tonne on FY17E capacity (25 MT)].

Company Analysis
Strong presence in northern region
Revenue share in northern region
Others
(Delhi,
Bihar, J&K)
14%
The company is one of the major players in the northern region with a
market share of ~20%. Rajasthan is the highest revenue generator state
for the company followed by Haryana and Punjab. The company has a
total capacity of 17.5 MTPA most of which is located in Rajasthan except
capacity of 1.2 MTPA, which is in Roorkee, Uttarakhand and 2.0 MTPA in
Bihar (commissioned during the quarter). Shree Cement distributes
cement under different brand names; Shree Ultra, Bangur and
Rockstrong. In FY09-13, sales and PAT have grown at a CAGR of 20% and
14.8%, respectively, while plants are operating at over 90% utilisation.

Power business: Not just another segment

Haryana
20%
Uttranchal
17%
The company is among the first companies in the cement industry to

have entered the power business. Leveraging its capabilities and strength,
it has evolved from a mere captive power producer to a major merchant
power player and is also a Category I power trading licensee. Currently,
the company has a total power generation capacity of 560 MW (300 MW
commissioned at Beawar in 2011-12) with plants located in Beawar and
Ras in Rajasthan, including waste heat recovery power plants of 46 MW
capacity. Sales from the power business contribute more than 10% to
total revenues of the company. Moreover, the company is also one of the
most efficient users of fuel in the industry. Captive capacity along with
better efficiency results in lower P&F cost per tonne for the company. It is
the first company in the world to utilise 100% pet-coke in all its operations
for both cement and power plants.

Cement capacity to expand over 48% over next two years

The company has commissioned 2.0 MT grinding unit each in Ras,
Rajasthan and Aurangabad, Bihar. The company has also initiated work
on the 2.5 MT integrated unit in Raipur, Chhattisgarh. Further the
company is also setting up 2.0 MT plant in UP. Post these expansions, the
capacity of the company will reach ~23 MTPA i.e. over ~48% of capacity
addition from the FY14 level.
Comfortable D/E along with healthy operating cash flows
While the debt-equity ratio was at 2.1x in FY07, at the end of FY14, it has
reduced to 0.4x and is expected to remain at this level in the coming
years. Operating cash flow has also remained healthy for the company
with FY14 operating cash flow of | 1191 crore. With the lower D/E ratio
and healthy operating cash flow, going forward, further expansion will not
create any balance sheet burden.

Better demand-supply dynamics keeps utilisation levels healthy in north

We expect utilisation levels of players in the northern region to remain
healthy due to steady growth of capacity addition. While we expect
capacity addition growth at a CAGR of 6.4% during FY14-16E, we expect
demand growth to remain ahead of supply growth (i.e. at a CAGR of 7.5%
over FY14-16E). Shree Cement, being a north player, will likely remain a
key beneficiary of the same.

Expect revenue CAGR of 17.5% during FY14-17E

Revenues have grown at a CAGR of ~29.5% during FY11-14 mainly led
by robust growth in the power segment due to commissioning of the 300
MW power capacity at Beawar in FY12 while the cement segments
revenue grew at a CAGR of 28.1% during the same period. Due to
moderate growth in the power segment, we expect capacity expansion in
cement to drive revenue CAGR of ~17.5% during FY14-17E. The
company is expanding its capacity and is expected to reach total capacity
of ~20 MT by FY15 and 23 MT in FY16 from current capacity of 17.5 MT.
Shree Cement is venturing into the eastern region where cement prices
have been higher than the northern region historically, which will lead to
an improvement in realisation for the company. Considering this, we
expect realisation CAGR of 4.3% for FY14-17E.

The companys acquisition of the 1.5 MTPA cement grinding unit of

Jaiprakash Associates in Panipat, Haryana (total consideration | 360
crore) is awaiting regulatory approval. Once approved, this plant would
save time to build new grinding capacity (since it has excess clinker
capacity). Further, this acquisition would likely help the company in
saving ~| 150-200/tonne on freight costs at that location.

Margins to improve led by price hikes and stabilisation in cost structure

We expect operating margins to improve given the healthy pick-up in
prices in the northern region coupled with operating leverage benefits.

Exhibit 20: Profitability trend
Outlook and valuation

Shree Cement would continue to remain ahead of its peers in terms of
capacity expansion (to add 5 MT i.e. a third of its capacity over the next
two or three years) and operating efficiency leading to better volume
growth and higher profitability. We think the managements proactive
approach to cost-saving initiatives and significant expansion plans will
help it join the large capacity league sooner than later.
Given the upcoming new capacity and healthy demand environment, we
expect profitability growth to remain healthy over the next two years. On
the back of timely expansion, we expect volume CAGR of 14.2% during
JY14-17E to 21.1 MT with healthy realisation growth. Further, a strong
balance sheet and better efficiency in terms of cost remains a key positive
for this company. We roll over our valuation base to FY17E and upgrade
our target price to | 9,850/share with a HOLD rating on the stock [i.e. at
13.5x FY17E EV/EBITDA, $205/tonne on FY17E capacity (25 MT)].
