    Salzer Electronics Ltd.

    14 December 2015

    Investment

    Summary

    Association with Indian industrial giant

    : Salzer Electronics Ltd. (SEL) has a marketing

    arrangement with Larsen and Tubro Ltd. (L&T) the Indian industrial giant in the field of

    Engineering, since 1993 for distribution of its switches in domestic market. SEL has

    access to L&Ts local network through more than 350 distributors and supplies 40% of

    its revenue to L&T. SEL supplies ~60% of its wire & cables, and 40% of its switchgears

    to L&T. Though L&T has completely exited its holding from SEL the management

    confirms that it will not affect its cordial business relations with SEL.

    Strong customer base with marquee clients:

    SEL is identified as the preferred supplier

    to some of the largest multinational brands like GE, Schneider as well as various local

    blue chip companies like BHEL, Nuclear Power Corporation of India, Indian Railways etc.

    SEL is a market leader in Indian Rotary Switches commanding a market share of 21%

    (largest producer in Asia).

    Augmenting product portfolio to drive growth:SEL raised Rs 63 Crs to invest in three

    different products (Three phase dry type transformer, Latching relays, Capacitors) and

    finalized technical tie-ups with multinationals. According to the management these

    products have good growth opportunities.

    Advanced engineering capabilities:

    SEL has strong engineering capabilities backed by

    in-house manufacturing and R&D team. It has technical collaboration with M/S. Plitron

    Manufacturing Inc., Toronto, Canada to manufacture Toroidal transformers.

    Financials to improve: With change in product mix and the introduction of new products

    like three phase dry type Transformer, Latching relays, Capacitors, we believe revenue

    will witness a CAGR of 25% over FY16-18E and operating profit margin (OPM) will

    improve 358 bps to 16.45% in FY18E. Along with this high growth, we expect return

    ratios to improve to teen over next three years.

    Valuation

    Augmentation of new products and increased contribution from energy saving business

    is expected to drive SELs revenue growth and improve its profitability going forward.

    Our DCF target is Rs 416 which is based on 11.60 % WACC while our relative valuationtarget is Rs 396 which is based on 12x FY17E EPS of Rs 33. Hence, we arrive at a

    weighted average target price of Rs 406 per share indicating 74% upside from current

    level. We initiate SEL with aSTRONG BUY

    .

    By 2022, the installed power capacity in India is expected to reach 350 gigawatts (GW)from 243 GW in 2014, on back of increasing industrialization and economicdevelopment. The total market size of electrical machinery in India is anticipated toreach US$ 100 bn by 2022 from US$ 24 bn in 2013.The electrical machinery sectorconsists of generation, transmission and distribution machinery. The transmission anddistribution market expanded at a CAGR of 6.7% over FY07-13. Boilers (16%), cables(10%) and transmission lines and conductors (12%) account for a large chunk of therevenue. The generation equipment market is expected to expand at a CAGR of 12.7%over FY1222. The exports of electrical machinery rose to US$ 3.9 bn in FY14 from US$

    3.4 bn in FY12 driven by demand for Boilers & parts, and electrical wires and cables.The Government of India has de-licensed the electrical machinery industry and hasallowed 100% Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in the sector. It plans to set up theElectrical Equipment Skill Development Council (EESDC) which would focus onidentifying critical manufacturing skills required for the electrical machinery industry.With many bilateral nuclear agreements in place, India is expected to become a majorhub for manufacturing nuclear reactors and associated components. Foreignparticipation in the development and financing of generation and transmission assets,engineering services, equipment supply and technology collaboration in nuclear and

    clean coal technologies is also expected to increase demand in this sector.

    Indian Electrical Equipment

    Indias electrical equipment industry is highly diverse and manufactures a wide range ofhigh and low technology products. The industry directly employs around half millionpeople and provides indirect employment to another one million people. The industrycan be broadly classified into two sectors generation equipment and T&D equipment.For 2011-12, the industry size is estimated at Rs 1.2 lakh cr (US$ 25 bn), of whichgeneration equipment segment consisting of BTG contributed Rs 31,000 cr (US$ 6.5bn) while the major T&D equipment segment of transformers, cables, transmissionlines, switchgears, capacitors, energy meters, etc., provided the larger share of Rs64,235 cr (US$ 13.4 bn). Other electrical equipment, including instrument transformers,surge arrestors, stamping and lamination, insulators, insulating material, industrialelectronics, indicating instruments, winding wires, etc., contributed Rs 25,000 cr (US$5.2 bn).

    Risk Factors

    Salzer is dependent on L&T for its business operation and distribution in the domestic

    market

    SELs relationship with L&T helped the company in introducing various products indomestic market. For the Fiscal 2013, 2014 and 2015, L&T contributed 49.6%, 45.3%and 40.0% respectively of their total sales. In products businesses, they rely on variouschannels including L&T for marketing their products. Unfortunately SEL has limitedability to control and manage the activities of sales channels of L&T which possesssignificant risk to companys top-line and profitability.

    Currency headwinds

    The company imports raw materials and components, and 20% of SELs sales are fromexport to 40 countries. Consequently, SEL faces risk from currency fluctuation.

    Working Capital risk

    Though the companys high working capital cycle of ~120 days is in line with theindustry, it may deteriorate SELs cash flow. However,the company is taking measureslike long term contracts and reducing debtors to reduce the high working capital risk.

    Guide to Khambattas research approach

    Valuation methodologies

    We apply the following absolute/relative valuation methodologies to derive the fair value of the stock as a part of our fundamental research:

    DCF: The Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) method values an estimated stream of future free cash flows discounted to the present day, using acompanys WACC or cost of equity. This method is used to estimate the attractiveness of an investment opportunity and as such provides a goodmeasure of the companys value in absolute terms. There are several approaches to discounted cash flow analysis, including Free Cash Flow toFirm (FCFF), Free Cash Flow to Equity (FCFE) and the Dividend Discount Model (DDM). The selection of a particular approach depends on theparticular company being researched and valued.

    ERE: The Excess Return to Equity (ERE) method takes into consideration the absolute value of a companys return to equity in excess of its cost ofequity discounted to the present day using the cost of equity. This methodology is more appropriate for valuing banking stocks than FCFF or FCFEmethodologies.

    Relative valuation: In relative valuation, various comparative multiples or ratios including Price/Earnings, Price/Sales, EV/Sales, EV/EBITDA,Price/Book Value are used to assess the relative worth of companies which operate in the same industry/industries and are thereby in the samepeer group. Generally our approach involves the use of two multiples to estimate the relative valuation of a stock.

    Other methodologies such as DuPont Analysis, CFROI, NAV and Sum-of-the-Parts (SOTP) are applied where appropriate.
