MOSL: SRF (Neutral) - Beat on estimates led by Technical Textiles

SRF: Beat on estimates led by Technical Textiles

(SRF IN, Mkt Cap USD6.3b, CMP INR7926, TP INR7230, 9% Downside, Neutral)

 

  • SRF reported a strong operating performance on a YoY basis in 1QFY22, on a lower base in 1QFY21, led by margin expansion in Technical Textiles and Chemicals, but offset by a contraction in Packaging Films. Margin in the Chemicals segment contracted QoQ due to higher raw material prices and export freight rates.
  • SRF’s reported EBIT was higher v/s our estimate. The incremental EBIT of 60%/22% over our estimate was mainly contributed by Technical Textiles/Packaging Films, while the rest is from the Chemicals segment.
  • Factoring in its 1QFY22 performance and margin improvement in the Technical Textiles segment, we have increased our earnings estimates for FY22E by 12% and maintained the same for FY23E.
  • We are encouraged by the long term structural opportunity in the Chemicals sector. We maintain our Neutral stance on SRF owing to higher valuations, which seem to fully price in the near term upside
