Bajaj Auto 2QFY12 results are above estimates, with EBITDA margins at 20.1% (est 19.4%) and adj PAT at INR7.9b (v/s est INR7.6b). Key highlights: Volumes grew by 16.3% YoY (6.5% QoQ) to 1.16m units. Realizations up 4.3% YoY (~3.5% QoQ) to INR45,246/unit (v/s est INR43,834) driven by improvement in product mix. Net revenues grew by 21.3% to INR52.7b (v/s INR51b). EBITDA margin improved by 100bp QoQ (~60bp YoY decline) to 20.1% (v/s est 19.4%), benefiting from lower than estimated RM cost (-120bp QoQ, +70bp YoY). Lower than estimated other income, higher depreciation and interest restricted adj PAT to INR7.9b It reported MTM Fx loss of INR954m (~INR640m post-tax) on its outstanding hedges. The management indicated 2HFY12 EBITDA margins to be better than 2QFY12 margins, driven by a) benefit of weak INR, b) full benefit of higher export incentives and export price increase and c) full benefit of domestic price increase. We upgrade our estimates by ~7% to INR108.7 for FY12 and ~3% to INR124.0 for FY13 to model a) robust volumes, b) higher domestic as well as export realizations on account of price hike taken, weak INR and higher export incentive and c) lower tax in FY12, however we increase our tax assumption for FY13 as we factor in for only 30% tax exemption at Pantnagar. The stock is valued at 15.6x FY12E EPS of INR108.5 and 13.6x FY13E EPS of INR124. Maintain Buy with target price of INR1,860 (15x FY13E EPS).

Price increases coupled with weak INR to result in further margin improvement in 2HFY12 It has increased prices in domestic market by INR500/unit for 2W and INR1,0002,000/unit for select 3Ws w.e.f Oct-11. Also, it has increased prices in export markets across products and markets by 3.5% w.e.f Oct-11. The management indicated 2HFY12 EBITDA margins to be better than 2QFY12 margins, driven by a) benefit of weak INR, b) full benefit of higher export incentives and export price increase and c) full benefit of domestic price increase. It does not expect to benefit from softening in commodity prices in 3QFY12 as it has not received any benefit of lower rates in quarterly contracts for steel and monthly contracts for aluminum. ~90% of FY13 exports hedged at a lower band of INR47 Exports for FY12 are totally hedged and ~90% of FY13 exports are hedged. Forex hedge is mixture of forward and range-forward contracts with minimum realization of INR47/USD and maximum of INR51. However, it has not disclosed break-up between plain vanilla forwards and range-forwards. The management indicated that its export profitability would be maintained at INR47/ USD. Additional export incentives to drive profitability Under new Foreign Trade Policy 2009-14, it would be eligible for additional 1% duty credit under Special Focus Market Scheme, which is over and above 3% credit under current Focus Market scheme. It is eligible to receive the additional 1% duty credit under Special Focus Market Scheme in all market except for Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Philippines. Additionally, it will also benefit from 1% duty credit under Special Bonus Benefit Scheme (w.ef Oct-11 to Mar-12). As a result, overall gross benefit to increase to 10.5% for 2HFY12 and 9.5% thereafter. These additional incentives would boost profitability, since price increase of 3.5% in exports was to off-set reduction in DEPB benefit. Other takeaways The company anticipates volume growth to remain strong in 2HFY12. The company indicated that production at Pantnagar in Oct-11 was impacted due to law & order situation, resulting in loss of ~20,000 units. This, coupled with lesser working days, would further impact production in the current month. Boxer 150cc is currently doing volumes of ~10,000/month, as production was impacted due to curfew in Pantnagar plant. It is aiming for volumes of ~20,000 units from Boxer. Tax rate is expected to increase from FY13 onwards, as first 5 year window of 100% income tax exemption is exhausted. It will now enjoy 30% tax exemption for next 5 years. It has received VAT refund of INR8.6b for FY11 in Aug-11. It expects to receive further INR2.4b for 1QFY12 in Oct-11 and INR2.9b for 2QFY12 by Dec-11. As of Sep-11, it had cash & cash equivalent of INR45.2b.
