MOSL: CONTAINER CORPORATION (Buy)-Higher profits led by SIES income

Container Corporation: Higher profits led by SIES income

(CCRI IN, Mkt Cap USD4.6b, CMP INR648, TP INR769, 19% Upside, Buy)

 

  • EXIM segment drives margins: Revenue (excluding SIES income) grew 3% YoY to INR14.98b (our estimate was INR16b), led by volume growth of 11% YoY. Realization declined 3% YoY due to lower lead distance. Adjusted EBITDA margin contracted 1.1pp YoY and 0.9pp QoQ to 21.4% (our estimate was 23.9%). Adjusted EBITDA declined 2% YoY to INR3.2b (our estimate was INR3.83b), as the impact of higher tariff was negated by 25% YoY increase in land license fees. Tax rate for 1QFY19 was 28% (our estimate was 20%), higher than 25% in 1QFY18 due to booking of SIES income in 1QFY19. Reported PAT grew 4% YoY to INR2.52b (our estimate was INR2.67b) due to higher than estimated tax rate. CCRI has booked SIES incentives worth INR700m in 1QFY19.
  • Management commentary: (1) CCRI initiated tariff hike of INR1,000/TEU with effect from 15 May 2018, whose full impact will be seen in subsequent quarters; (2) Land license fees grew 25% YoY in 1QFY19, impacting margins; (3) CCRI has gained 4% market share in the domestic segment and lost 1% market share in the EXIM segment on a YoY basis; (4) Empty running charges for CCRI declined 14% YoY to INR582m, driven by higher exports and double stacking; (5) Double stacking trains increased by 52% YoY.
