​CG Power and Industrial: Above-estimate op. performance led by Industrial segment 

(CGPOWER IN, Mkt Cap USD0.7b, CMP INR76, TP INR80, 4% Upside, Upgrade to Neutral)

  • Standalone operating performance exceeds estimate: Sales rose 12% YoY to INR12.6b (est. of INR11.7b), driven by growth of 19% in Industrial segment and 6.5% YoY in Power segment. EBIDTA grew 5% YoY to INR0.7b (est. of INR0.6), with the margin of 5.2% in line with our estimate of 5.1%. Adj. PAT of INR0.2b missed our estimate of INR0.4b due to higher-than-estimated interest cost (INR525m v/s est. of INR267m) and tax charges (43% of PBT v/s est. of 20%).
  • Consol. perf. impacted by loss of sales in Indonesia and US trading arm: Consol. revenue (incl. Indonesian subsidiary) fell 6% YoY to INR14.4b in 1QFY18, impacted by loss of sales in Indonesia (USD20m) due to Ramadan, and US trading arm (USD10m). Power Systems sales declined 17% YoY, while Industrial segment grew 13% YoY. EBIDTA declined 67% YoY to INR0.5b, with the margin contracting 590bp YoY to 3.1%. Adj. loss for the quarter was INR0.5b, as against profit of INR0.7b in the year-ago period. An impairment loss of INR0.4b was booked in 1QFY18 due to sale of power business in the US in 1QFY18 (INR0.2b), while the balance is accounted for by overseas Power T&D subs.
  • Sale of power business in US concludes; receives binding offer for sale of power business in Hungary: CRG concluded the sale of its power business in the US for USD37m in July 2017, and has also received binding offer for the sale of its power business in Hungary for a consideration of EUR38m. CG Power expects the deal to conclude by November 2017.
