Ashok Leyland’s (AL) Q4FY17 EBITDA at INR7.3bn (down 7% YoY) was in line with Street estimates, albeit lower than ours. That said, management’s guidance stays very robust; a) 10‐15% M&HCV industry growth in FY18 (GDP, infra and mining revival) – we are at 8%; b) market share gain—across regions and segments—to continue (up 100bps in FY17 to 34%); c) strong response for new launches (Sunshine, GURU and Oyster) and sustained network expansion (5x over FY12‐17) to aid market share gains; d) non‐cyclical businesses gaining traction—new orders in defence, bigger scale of spares business and focused product strategy across export markets. We believe, this business momentum, a cohesive strategy that we like and AL’s unwavering profitability focus should drive industry leading margins, RoE and stock performance. Maintain ‘BUY’.
Weak product mix and higher input costs dent gross margin
AL’s Q4FY17 revenue at INR66bn (up 11% YoY) came in line with Street’s estimate.
However, EBITDA missed our estimate by 14% due to gross margin miss (28.1% versus
30.6% estimate) led by delay of export/defence and commodity cost impact. We
expect gross margin pressure to ease going forward with softening of steel prices and
normalisation of export orders. Reported PAT, at INR4.7bn, was aided by higher other
income and negative tax (INR3.25bn tax benefit from Hinduja Foundries’ merger).
New launches and reach expansion to sustain market share gains
Addressing white spaces in product portfolio coupled with dealership expansion across
non‐South regions will help sustain market share gains going forward. We believe the
company’s strategy of increasing local presence across export markets and product
launches comparable to global peers to help drive export growth. AL is targeting 30%
market share in ~500‐600K export opportunity
Outlook and valuations: Strategy on track; maintain ‘BUY’
Focus on widening product offerings & deepening distribution to propel current 15‐
year high market share and industry leading margin/RoE. We estimate ~25% EPS CAGR
over FY17‐19 and maintain ‘BUY/SO’ with INR125 TP (10x FY19E EV/EBITDA and assign
INR6 to Hinduja Finance stake. At CMP, the stock trades at FY19E PER of 13.7x.

Q4FY17 conference call: Key highlights
Demand outlook
• Expects M&HCV industry to grow 10‐15% in FY18 led by anticipated revival in GDP,
infrastructure and mining. GST to have positive impact on GDP.
• Q1FY18 will be challenging given steep price hikes post BS‐IV transitions and supply‐
side issues at Bosch. But AL expects strong revival in demand in H2FY18.
• Mining industry is seeing signs of demand revival.
o AL is present in soft mining applications like cement and limestone mining (~75%
of addressable market), but not in deep mining applications.
• Tipper industry volumes in FY17 were ~51K units, up 30% YoY.
• Expects LCV industry growth to recover in FY18.
o With increase in number of highways and proliferation of hub‐and‐spoke
models, demand for LCVs should increase going forward.
o Globally, the share of LCVs to total CVs is ~75%; in India, the share of LCVs is much
lower at ~60%.
Market share
• AL’s overall M&HCV market share improved to 34% in FY17 from 33% in FY16.
• Gain in market share has been broad based across regions and segments.
• Focus on gaining market share on profitable basis.
o Aims to sustain market share momentum by focus on product & service quality
and strengthening distribution network.
o Service quality: AL promises service response time of 4 hours and pays a penalty in
case of delay all over India.
o Improving product quality: New iEGR technology in BS‐IV products is better suited
to Indian conditions than SCR technology of peers; it is easier in terms of
maintenance (lesser electronics). Fuel efficiency is ~10% better than AL’s
corresponding BS‐III variants. Has not test the fuel efficiency versus SCR product as
they are not yet available in the market.
o Network expansion on track: Network has improved to ~2,500 touch points from
500 in FY12. Strategy is to defend leadership in South and challenge the leadership
in other regions.
• Product pricing: EMI accounts for only 10% of total cost of a fleet operator. AL’s focus is
on balance costs like fuel, parts, etc.
Margin
• Gross margin impacted on account of weaker product mix (exports), lower defence
sales and higher commodity costs impact (steel prices).
• Effected average price hikes of ~4% in mid‐February, which could not entirely offset the
commodity inflation impact in Q4. Seeing some softening in global steel prices.
• Product mix: Lower exports in Q4FY17 was a timing issue, as certain shipments to Ivory
Coast (earlier scheduled for Q4FY17) will now be dispatched in Q2FY18.
• Did not resort to aggressive discounting to gain market share, but offered some
discounts to a few critical customers.
Ashok Leyland
3 Edelweiss Securities Limited
• Gross margin for Hinduja Foundries business are healthy and accretive. It has been
EBIDTA positive for FY17 with marginal loss. Working hard to ensure PAT positive in
FY18.
LCV business
• Making good gross margins similar to M&HCV.
• Strategy to launch 1 model each quarter; the company remains positive on growth
prospects of the business.
New launches
• Sunshine has evinced strong response and currently enjoys waiting period; only bus
that meets frontal crash and anti‐rollover norms.
• GURU ICV receiving good response as well.
• In export markets (Middle East) has launched a new bus Oyster, which is compliant with
frontal crash and anti‐rollover norms and priced at par with Japanese offerings.
• 3‐pronged strategy for electric vehicles.
o Designing European styled Electric Vehicles based on the Optare technology.
o Working on in‐house ‘Circuit’ technology.
o Working with the government on the battery swapping technology.
Exports
• Reiterated strategy of exports to account for 1/3rd of total revenue over 3‐5 years.
Addressable market size ~600K units.
• Has targeted market share of 30% in each region and each segment it operates in with
a focused 4 to 5 products in each market.
• Export growth drivers:
o New launches (Oyster bus in Middle East) and new LCV bus (expected in 6 months)
to drive growth.
o Focus is to have 4‐5 products but make them world class to compete with
Japanese and European players. Pricing strategy will be at a discount to European
players, instead of cost plus basis.
o Started investing in local assembly plants (Bangladesh, Ivory Coast and Ras‐Al‐
Khaimah), which is helping improve visibility and leading to increased penetration.
o Focusing on expanding the distribution network across export markets.
o New products have better margins; with increase in share of new products,
exports’ profitability should improve going forward.
Defence and spares
• Has won more than 19 tenders in defence. Though orders’ size is small as these are trial
orders, the opportunity pie can be big.
• Most of the orders are for new products including armored protected vehicles, mine
protected vehicles , 8x8 gun carriers, 10x10 bridge launchers etc, which traditionally AL
did not participate in.
• Spares revenues for the year crossed INR10bn and maintained margins as well.
Hinduja Leyland Finance (HLFL)
• Healthy loan book growth of 40% with total book size of INR140bn and RoE of ~3%.
• 50% of the loan book is truck financing and balance is diversified across 3Ws, auto loans
and loans against property.
Automobiles
4 Edelweiss Securities Limited
• Financing by HLFL will not be more than 15% AL’s volumes. AL’s stake is 57% and
investment is valued at INR7bn.
• HLFL through its subsidiary has forayed into housing (low cost housing). Profitability is
good and the housing book is around INR7bn in the first year.
BS‐IV transitioning

• According to the company, iEGR technology is best suited for Indian conditions. The
technology allows to easily replace the engine and the older engine can be sold in the
aftermarket.
• Has retrofitted 2,000 units to BS‐IV and may take 5‐6 months to retrofit the rest.
Around 1,000‐2,000 BS‐III vehicles will be exported as well.

• Technological prowess:
o AL is the only player with iEGR with power output up to 400HP.
o AL was the only BS‐III player with a mechanical fuel pump.
Others
• Hinduja Foundries business turned EBITDA positive and AL expects it to turn EPS
accretive by end FY18.AL posted INR3.25bn tax benefit on account of the HFL merger
(given its accumulated losses), which have been accounted in Q4 itself.
• Turnaround of HFL is on track and losses in the past 12 months are down to INR1.03bn
versus INR3.87bn in previous 18 months.
• Impairment of subsidiaries:

Company Description
AL is the second‐largest commercial vehicle manufacturer in India. Hinduja Group holds 51%
stake in the company through the holding company, Hinduja Automotive (UK). The company
has six manufacturing plants at four locations in India—Ennore (Tamil Nadu), Hosur (Tamil
Nadu), Alwar (Rajasthan), Bhandara (Maharashtra) and Pantnagar (Uttaranchal). It focuses
on the M&HCV segment and has a significant presence in the bus segment. Investment Theme
AL is a pure play on the M&HCV segment. It has been a key beneficiary of sharp recovery in
higher tonnage segment/South region and has commendably improved balance sheet
(better FCF/ lower debt). We expect market share gains to sustain led by expanding product
portfolio in small and intermediate ICV segment and expansion of dealership network across
non‐South regions. Sharpening focus on high margin‐businesses like spares, defence and
exports is a potent margin trigger. Additionally, sharp recovery in demand over FY16‐19
versus our 9% estimate will aid margins further.
Key Risks
Pressure on fleet operators’ profitability
Capacity utilisation and freight rates are among the key drivers of profitability of fleet
operators. In light of the recent demonetisation move, any prolonged slowdown in demand
across sectors could adverse impact freight demand and rates, which could hit fleet
operators’ profitability and consequently truck demand. A longer than expected delay in
cash availability in the economy could also impair the ability of fleet operators to buy trucks.
Intensifying competition in M&HCV
Competitive landscape of the domestic truck industry is evolving from a duopoly structure
to a 4‐5 players market with emergence of newer players like Eicher Motors (VECV) and
Mahindra & Mahindra (M&M). AL is focused on gaining market share profitably, but
aggressive discounting by competition could hamper its efforts.
Commodity price inflation
Any adverse fluctuation in the prices of key raw materials (steel and aluminium) could hit
margins, if AL is unable to pass on the higher costs through price hikes in a weak demand
environment.
