We believe the slowdown is short-lived (led by stable government, hot summer 2019 and recovery in trade liquidity) and Havells will resume its outperformance. We maintain our NEUTRAL stance as we believe most of the near-term positives are priced-in. We value at 36x on Mar-21 EPS, arriving at a TP of Rs 743. HIGHLIGHTS OF THE QUARTER Net revenues grew by 9% (35% in previous 4 qtrs.) vs. exp of 17%. Core biz was up by 14% (18% in 4QFY18; 24% in previous 4 qtrs.). Core biz growth moderated on account of (a) Impending elections (curtailed B2B spend), (b) Liquidity crunch and (c) Extended winter. Switchgears/Cables/Lighting/ECD/Lloyd grew by 11/17/7/9/-9% respectively. Lighting was impacted by lower project orders, while ECD was impacted by late onset of summer (fans). We believe both these segments will bounce back shortly. Lloyd’s performance was muted in FY19 (2% comparable growth) owing to weak RAC industry offtake. During the year, co. took steps in the right direction which will pay-off in the medium term i.e. (a) Commissioned RAC plant (benefit to accrue next season), (b) Focused on R&D (more product features) and (c) Repositioned brand towards premium segment. Contribution margins for cables expanded by 40bps, while for Switchgears/Lighting/ECD/Lloyd declined by 67/509/100/698 bps owing to delay in price hikes and modest volume growth. GM declined by 85bps to 37.1% (vs. exp of -26bps). Employee/other expenses grew by 35/11% resulting in 10% decline in EBITDA. In FY19, Havells focused on new launches which were supported by up-front investments at a time when commodity prices were volatile. As a result, EBITDAM declined by 100bps. We expect this to reverse over FY20-21E and therefore build 170bps EBITDAM expansion during this period. STANCE In FY19, Havells attained great success in its ECD segment (up 30% despite a base of 21% in FY18) which consistently led to revenue beat. However, EBITDA growth was challenged (14%). In FY20, we expect the co. to continue to scale its new launches, improve Lloyd’s performance and benefit from higher B2B spend. We also expect segment margins to revive (FY17-FY18 band) resulting in robust EBITDA growth. We don’t expect a re-rating in the stock (high implied valuation for ECD) and believe most near term positives are factored in the stock.

Havells India NEUTRAL

HDFC securities Institutional Research is also available on Bloomberg HSLB <GO>& Thomson Reuters

Seasonality blip Havells 4Q performance was weak owing to extended winter and liquidity crunch in the trade. We believe the slowdown is short-lived (led by stable government, hot summer 2019 and recovery in trade liquidity) and Havells will resume its outperformance. We maintain our NEUTRAL stance as we believe most of the near-term positives are priced-in. We value at 36x on Mar-21 EPS, arriving at a TP of Rs 743.

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE QUARTER Net revenues grew by 9% (35% in previous 4 qtrs.) vs.

exp of 17%. Core biz was up by 14% (18% in 4QFY18; 24% in previous 4 qtrs.). Core biz growth moderated on account of (a) Impending elections (curtailed B2B spend), (b) Liquidity crunch and (c) Extended winter.

Switchgears/Cables/Lighting/ECD/Lloyd grew by 11/17/7/9/-9% respectively. Lighting was impacted by lower project orders, while ECD was impacted by late onset of summer (fans). We believe both these segments will bounce back shortly.

Lloyd’s performance was muted in FY19 (2% comparable growth) owing to weak RAC industry offtake. During the year, co. took steps in the right direction which will pay-off in the medium term i.e. (a) Commissioned RAC plant (benefit to accrue next season), (b) Focused on R&D (more product features)

and (c) Repositioned brand towards premium segment. Contribution margins for cables expanded by 40bps,

while for Switchgears/Lighting/ECD/Lloyd declined by 67/509/100/698 bps owing to delay in price hikes and modest volume growth.

GM declined by 85bps to 37.1% (vs. exp of -26bps). Employee/other expenses grew by 35/11% resulting in 10% decline in EBITDA.

In FY19, Havells focused on new launches which were supported by up-front investments at a time when commodity prices were volatile. As a result, EBITDAM declined by 100bps. We expect this to reverse over FY20-21E and therefore build 170bps EBITDAM expansion during this period.

STANCE In FY19, Havells attained great success in its ECD segment (up 30% despite a base of 21% in FY18) which consistently led to revenue beat. However, EBITDA growth was challenged (14%). In FY20, we expect the co. to continue to scale its new launches, improve Lloyd’s performance and benefit from higher B2B spend. We also expect segment margins to revive (FY17-FY18 band) resulting in robust EBITDA growth. We don’t expect a re-rating in the stock (high implied valuation for ECD) and believe most near term positives are factored in the stock.
