The company recently raised Rs 2970 mn through IPO which shall be deployed for promotion of planned product launches and acquisitions. We expect revenue to grow at CAGR of 15.7% over FY10FY13E and PAT to grow at CAGR of 11.8% over FY1013E. Key Highlights Bajaj Almond Drops Hair Oil – Key brand in the portfolio: Leader in its segment, the product dominates with over 52% market share in the Rs 7.5 bn Light Hair Oil segment. This single brand contributes approximately 95% to the total topline and has exhibited valuebased CAGR of 39% over FY07 to FY10. Premium positioning and customer loyalty has helped the product to command higher price in the market, which in turn has aided in earning high margins. Going ahead, we believe Bajaj Almond Drops as a brand will be instrumental in launching the planned future products. Right mix available to successfully launch future products while acquisition is on the horizon: The Company plans to launch 4 new products in the personal care segment to leverage its vast distribution network and to capitalise upon its existing brand equity. It possesses sufficient cash to meet its objective and has an experienced management team to devise an efficient strategy for a successful launch of new products. The management is also looking around for acquisition of a strong regional brand which it can place on a national platform. Trend towards ‘Premiumization’: Increasing urbanization along with improvement in per capita disposable income has accelerated the trend towards buying premium products. Coupled with ‘Premiumization’, retail expansion (particularly large format stores) will drive demand for consumption of premium products. We believe Bajaj Corp Ltd with its offering in hair oils is well positioned to benefit from this favourable change. Negative working capital & margins sustainable in future: The Company runs on negative working capital cycle because of its policy of selling on cash. We expect the company to maintain the margins for FY12E & FY13E in the range of 25 – 26% at EBITDA level. Rising prices of LLP which forms major part of raw material is a challenge, but we believe Bajaj Corp would be able to pass on the cost pressure by price hikes as it exhibited in the past without affecting the market share. On account of nil debt, PAT margins are likely stabilise at 23% for FY12E & FY13E.

Investment Rationale

Bajaj Almond Drops Hair Oil (BAHO) – Key brand in the portfolio

Leader in its segment, the product dominates with over 52% market share in the Rs 7.5 bn Light Hair Oil segment and contributes approximately 95% to the  topline of Bajaj Corp Ltd. The LHO  segment grew  at CAGR  (FY06  to FY10) of  16%  in volume  terms  and  24%  in value  terms  against which  the sales of BAHO grew at 29% and 39% respectively. BAHO is the brand which is driving LHO segment and in turn the overall market. Strong presence in the market  along with  high  brand  equity  of  Bajaj Almond Drops will  be instrumental in launching the future products. 

I. Strong Pricing Power

BAHO is placed in the premium segment and currently sells at Rs 42 for 100 ml which  is  higher  than most  of  its  competitors.  The  company  has  been successful in increasing its prices from Rs 28 for 100ml in March’03 to Rs 42 in May’10 (CAGR of 6%), without disturbing the popularity of product. The brand’s strong pricing power is evident from its market share growth from 31.4%  in  FY06  to  52.3%  till Dec  2010.  In  future, we  believe  the  company would  be  able  pass  on  input  cost  pressure  to  the  customers  through  an annual average price increase of 6 to 7%.

III. Targeting market share of 65%

The management has  indicated  that  the product  is  currently  in  its growth stage and has an ambitious plan  to  increase  the current market share  from 52.3% to 65% by FY15. This figure can be achieved by exploring the eastern and  southern  region  of  India  where  the  current  penetration  is  low. Geographically eastern region contributes 17.8% to the total sales of BAHO where  more  headroom  for  growth  is  available  while  southern  market contributes  a  meager  2.6%  which  is  a  difficult  market  to  penetrate  as consumers have strong inclination towards coconut oil.

IV. Unique Selling Proposition (USP)

Identified by its unique selling proposition of real almond extracts and 300% more Vitamin E  than  coconut oil,  it has  created high brand  equity  for  the product. Packaging in glass bottle sets it apart from the competitors giving it a  rich  look  and  the  feel  of  a  value  product.  It  also  helps  in  retaining  the aroma, the essential qualities of Almond extract & Vitamin E. 

Right mix available to successfully launch future products while acquisition is on the horizon

The Company plans to launch 4 new products in the personal care segment to  leverage  its  vast  distribution  network  and  to  capitalize  on  its  existing brand equity. It possesses sufficient cash which was raised through the IPO to meet its objective and has an experienced management team to devise an efficient  strategy  for promotion of new products. The management  is also eyeing  an  acquisition  of  a  strong  regional  brand which  it  can  place  on  a national platform.

IV. Efficient management team & existing brand equity

The  company  possesses  an  efficient  team  of  professionals  with  rich experience in their respective field who will be involved  in devising a well organized strategy  in successfully  taking  the company  towards  its goal.  In addition,  the  strong brand equity of Bajaj Almond drops,  created over  the years  since  its  inception  in  1991, will be  instrumental  in  launching  future products.

Trend towards ‘Premiumization’

Increasing urbanization with improvement in per capita disposable income has  accelerated  the  trend  towards  buying  premium  products.  The ‘premiumization’  trend  can  be  observed  primarily  in  the  top  two  income groups,  the  rich  and  the  upper  middle  class.  Coupled  with ‘premiumization’,  retail  expansion  (particularly  large  format  stores)  will drive  the demand  for consumption of premium products. We believe Bajaj Corp Ltd with its offering in hair oils is well positioned to benefit from this favourable change.

I. Benefit from organised retail expansion

The  organized  retail  sector  is  witnessing  high  growth  and  the  share  of organized retail players in the retailing industry is expected to rise from 5% of the total market  in 2008 to 14  ‐ 18 per cent of the total retail market and reach US$ 450 billion by 2015, according  to Mckinsey & Company  report. Large  format  stores  like  super market  and hypermarket  coupled with  the

retail expansion will be beneficial in increasing the penetration and drive the demand for consumption. Margins sustainable in future & Negative working capital cycle: The company recorded high margins of 29.5% at EBITDA level and 25.4% at PAT  level  for  FY10.  It  continued with  improved  performance  during  the period 9MFY11 recording 31.1% EBITDA margins and 23.0% PAT margins. The relative fall in the PAT margin was on account of one time write off of IPO expenses.  

Rising  prices  of  LLP  (Light  Liquid  Paraffin), which  is  a  crude  oil  linked product, forms major part of raw material and is a challenge in the near term due  to Libya & neighboring  country  crisis. Apart  from LLP, packaging  in form of glass bottles and vegetable refined oil also forms major part of raw material. We believe Bajaj Corp would be able to pass on the cost pressure by price hikes as it exhibited in the past without affecting the market share. The company makes close 57% at gross margin levels. On conservative note, we expect the EBITDA margins to remain within the range of 25 – 26% for FY12E & FY13E. On account of nil debt, PAT margins are likely to stabilise within the range of 24‐25% for FY12E & FY13E. Light Liquid Paraffin – Historical price trend

The company proposes to expand the market share of its product including flagship product Bajaj Almond drops and other products like Brahmi Amla and Amla Shikakai. The company intends to make this possible by pursuing a strategy to convert the coconut oil users to light hair oil; since coconut oil users consume close to 60% in volume terms of the overall hair oil market.   

The management has indicated that the Bajaj Almond Drops is currently in its  growth  stage. Once  it will  enter maturity  stage,  they will  strategize  to reduce the dependency on it by bringing down the contribution to revenue at 70% from current 95%. 

Rural markets have emerged as strong consumers on the back of rising per capita disposable income and changing preferences towards branded quality products.  This  benefit  of  this  opportunity  will  be  taken  by  increased promotion of smaller SKU’s of 2 ‐ 5 ml (sachet) which provides affordability. For Bajaj Corp, sales contribution of sachets to total sales has increased from 0.6% in FY06 to 9.7% for 9MFY11. 

In addition  the management has  indicated  that  future products  it plans  to launch very soon will target the major SEC’s (Socio Economic Class) groups and not just the premium class.

Board approves Sub-Division of Shares

Bajaj Corp Ltd has informed BSE that the Board of Directors of the Company at its meeting held on February 11, 2011, have decided to seek the approval by shareholders through Postal Ballot pursuant to the provisions of Section 192A of  the Companies Act, 1956 read with  the Companies  (Passing of  the Resolution by Postal Ballot) Rules, 2001, for the following: 

1. Sub‐division of each of the Ordinary (Equity) Shares of the face value of Rs. 5 each in the Equity Share Capital of the Company fully paid‐up into 5 Ordinary (Equity) Shares of the face value of Re. 1 each fully paid‐up. 

2. Amendment  to  the Capital Clause of  the Memorandum of Association of the Company to reflect the aforesaid sub‐division. 

Key Risk & Concerns Dependence on single brand

The company receives 95% of its total sales from one product which makes it vulnerable. Brand value erosion or decrease in sales can significantly impact the  performance  of  the  company.  The  company  is  in  the  process  of diversifying  the  risk  by  increasing  its  product  portfolio  through  new launches.  Rising raw material prices

Light Liquid Paraffin  forms  a major part of  its  raw material and occupies close  to 35% of  its  total cost. LLP being a crude oil derivative  is subject  to changes in international crude oil prices. Any sharp increase in its prices can contract  the margins  of  the  company  and  thus  have  an  adverse  effect  on EPS.  

Future products may not succeed

As the company is in process of launching the planned products it runs the risk of unproductive and  failed  launch. The  consumer may not accept  the new product which can also have an adverse  impact on  its existing brand value.  Cost  incurred  in  promotion may  not  generate  the  required  return which again will impact its profitability.  

Acquisition may be EPS decretive

As a part of the growth strategy, the company is on a lookout for acquisition of strong regional brand which it wants to place on a national platform. The company may  fail  to  identify  a  fine  tuned  player  for  acquisition  or  after successful acquisition may fail to market it at national level. This can result in EPS decretive acquisition and impact the company’s sound working.

Financial Outlook

Revenue growth to be 15.9% and 17% in FY12E & FY13E: We expect Bajaj Corp’s revenue  to grow at a CAGR of 15.7%  in FY10‐13E. After exhibiting a high growth rate of 35% in FY10 and a slower growth of 14% in FY11E on account of  high  base, we  expect  annual  growth  to  gradually  improve  to  15.9%  in FY12E  and  17%  in FY13E. The gradual  improvement  in growth would be driven by 8.4% & 10.4% volume growth and realization growth of 7% & 6% for FY12E & FY13E respectively.

High EBITDA & PAT margins: We  expect EBITDA margins  to  contract by 370 bps in FY12E at 25.3% on the back of rising LLP prices. As shown below, the sharp expansion in margins for FY10 was on account of LLP prices cooling down  after  2009  crude  oil  crisis.  Going  ahead  in  FY13E,  we  expect  the EBITDA margins  to  improve marginally  to  25.9%  and  PAT  to  remain  at 23.0%. At these levels the margins are one the highest in FMCG industry.

Hair Oil Industry

Usage  of  hair  oil  is  ingrained  into  Indian  traditional  habit.  Unlike  the western world where  hair  oil  is more  of  cosmetic  product,  in  India  it  is perceived to offer nutritional benefits like hair strengthening, faster & better growth, and reduce hair fall.  There are two main types of hair oil available in the Indian market, coconut hair oil and perfumed hair oil. 

Coconut hair oil finds its deep rooted presence in the south Indian market as  the people consider  the same  to be sacred and  interchangeably use  it as edible oil. The coconut hair oil consists of approximately 51% of the overall Rs 50 bn hair oil market. Perfumed hair oil segment  includes Amla based hair  oils,  cooling  oils  and  light  hair  oils which make  up  rest  half  of  the market. 

Light hair oil segment (LHO)

Amongst the perfumed hair oil segment, the light hair oil segment make up 14% of  the hair oil  industry. The  sector has  exhibited high growth  rate of 24% CAGR  (value  based) during  the period  FY06  to  FY10  against  overall hair oil market growth rate of 17.6% (value based) for the same period. The high  growth  can  be  attributed  to  changing  consumer  preference  towards branded quality products,  favorable demographic profile of  India,  increase
