India Equity Research Agri Input & Chemicals January 25, 2016 Result Update Coromandel International Results impacted by subdued demand Emkay Your success is our success CMP Target Price Rs165 Rs225 ( ) Rating Upside BUY ( ) 36.7 % Result highlights Subdued demand in both fertiliser as well as non fertiliser business affects revenues which declined 7%yoy to Rs 27.5bn (above our est Rs23.9bn) EBITDA margins at 6% missed our est of 7.1% on account of higher sale of low margin products like DAP coupled with lower production (down 10% yoy) leading to higher fixed cost. EBITDA at Rs 1.7 in line with est while PAT at Rs 554mn below est of Rs 736mn Exports from Sabero witnessed robust growth led by 25% volume growth for Mancozeb and better realization along with currency tailwinds improved profitability for Sabero While we cut our FY16/17 earnings estimate by 29%/21%, we believe the company s strong market share in key markets and diversification into non-fertiliser business should drive revenue growth under normal monsoon condition. Retain Buy reco Low demand and high inventory continues to hurt fertiliser business Coromandel posted weak set of numbers on the back of demand pressure in both fertiliser as well as non-fertiliser business. Revenues were down 7% yoy to Rs 27.5bn (higher than est Rs 23.9bn) with fertiliser business coming under serious pressure due to weak demand which has led to high channel inventory coupled with falling chemical prices globally. Weak demand also impacted non-fertiliser business which saw higher sales returns and price erosion. Split between fertiliser and non-fertiliser revenue stood at 82% - 18%. Margins decline on the back of forex volatility and higher other expense EBITDA margins contracted 160bps to 6% below our estimates of 7.1% led by higher trading of low margin products like DAP, higher staff costs and lower operating leverage. Consequently, EBITDA dropped by 27% to Rs 1.6mn in line with estimates. However, APAT saw a sharp decline of 54% to Rs 554mn (below est) on account of higher interest cost due to increased working capital as subsidy receivable continues to increase and higher tax rate. Market leadership in key markets and diversification into non-fertiliser business to drive growth We cut EPS estimate by 29%/21% for FY16/17 on the back of weaker than estimated performance. However, we believe, Coromandel s strong leadership in key markets of Southern India and entering into northern markets should significantly benefit its fertiliser business while diversification into non-fertiliser segment will drive revenue growth under normal monsoon condition. We reduce target price to Rs 225 (15xFY17E EPS) while retaining Buy reco.

Strong performance at Sabero supports non-fertiliser business While Coromandel s domestic non-fertiliser business remained under stress owing to weak demand due to depleting water levels and saw significant sales return, export business at Sabero showed healthy growth along with improved profitability. Export business was largely driven by increased demand for Mancozeb where volumes increased by 25% led by label expansion in Brazil and demand supply mismatch in key export markets. Consequently, Sabero enjoyed healthy realizations and improved its margins to 16-17% which was also supported by currency tailwinds. Management expects export business to continue to record robust growth led by increased demand for Mancozeb, while domestic business could pick up if monsoon situation normalizes during upcoming kharif. Continues to gain market share in key markets amid poor demand environment Coromandel continues to maintain its leadership position in its key markets of southern India amid falling volumes and poor demand environment. In its key market of Andhra Pradesh and Telengana its market share increased from 61% to 68% even as volumes dropped by 21-22% indicating Coromandel s brand strength in these states. However, pan-india market share fell from 16.5% to 13.9% due to its weak presence in north and central India where the season was better than the southern region. Channel inventory remains bloated with higher concentration in northern region As per the management, channel inventory continues to remain bloated at 4.5-5 mn tonne. However, this is largely due to higher DAP (60% of total) in the system and remains concentrated in northern region where Coromandel does not have strong presence and will not hurt the company in the upcoming kharif season. During the quarter, company s own manufactured phosphatic volumes stood at 0.58mn tonnes including 60,000 tonnes of traded DAP. Management has indicated that the capacity utilization at TIFERT has increased from 30-35% to 40-45%. As a result availability of phosphoric acid has improved and should not see any supply pressure during Q4FY16. Subsidy at the end of 31 st Dec 2015 stood at Rs 15.8bn against Rs 14bn in Q2FY16. Steady increase in subsidy has impacted working capital leading to increased interest expense. Cut estimates owing to weaker than estimated performance We cut our FY16/17 earnings estimate by 29%/21% on weaker than estimated performance. We have reduced our revenue estimates by 14%/25% for FY16/17 as near term outlook remains challenging owing to weak demand for fertiliser in key markets of Southern India. However, revival of monsoon in the upcoming kharif season could see recovery in demand for both fertiliser as well as non-fertiliser business. We expect 135 bps improvement in margins for FY17 on the back of higher operating leverage and soft raw material prices. We reduce our target price to Rs 225 (15xFY17E P/E) while retaining our Buy rating on the stock.
