Engineers India: Execution on track; OMC-led business potential attractive

(ENGR IN, Mkt Cap USD1.0b, CMP INR117, TP INR155, 33% Upside, Buy)

 

  • Weak performance at operating level: Sales increased 59% YoY to INR6.8b, ahead of our estimate of INR5.7b. EBITDA declined 34% YoY to INR915m, with the margin of 13.4% coming in below our estimate of 17.3% due to a higher share of EPC sales at 51% (v/s 22% in 2QFY18). EBIT margin shrank by 270bp YoY to 29% in Consulting and by 520bp YoY to 6.5% in EPC (after adjusting for provision write-back of INR374m in 2QFY18) due to an adverse revenue mix. PAT fell 18% YoY to INR978m, as against our estimate of INR939m.
  • EPC/Turnkey project sales increased 263% YoY to INR3.5b, driven by healthy execution of orders in hand for BS-VI upgrades. On the other hand, Consulting sales were flat YoY at INR3.3b.
  • Order inflow was healthy at INR56.1b (+249% YoY); order book of INR114.6b (+29% YoY) provides robust revenue visibility. Key orders won during the quarter: (a) HPCL Rajasthan refinery Limited EPC order (INR43b), (b) PMC services for execution of Rajasthan refinery project (INR11.8b) and (c) EPCM services for bio refinery project at Numaligarh (INR440m). Order book at INR114.6b stands healthy, with revenue visibility of 5.1x its TTM revenue.
