HAM projects to keep execution strong…

PNC Infratech’s (PNC) revenues grew significantly by 108.0% YoY to

| 558.6 crore in Q2FY19 led by strong execution. However, it was

below our expectation of | 603.3 crore

EBITDA margin contracted 142 bps YoY to 13.4% on account of

higher raw material expenses (68.3% as percentage of revenues in

Q2FY19 vs. 65.3% in Q2FY18) and in line with our estimate of 13.6%

PAT grew robustly by 110.9% YoY to | 35.1 crore in Q2FY19, below

our expectation of | 59.4 crore mainly on account of lower-than-

expected topline growth and higher tax rate of 21.6% in Q2FY19

Strong order book provides revenue visibility…

PNC’s orderbook was strong at | 6119 crore, providing strong visibility

over the next two to three years. However, this does not include some

projects viz. two EPC packages of Purvanchal Expressway worth | 2520

crore, Nagpur-Mumbai expressway EPC package worth | 2000 crore and

three HAM projects worth | 3834 crore. Including these projects, PNC’s

orderbook is strong at over | 14000 crore. The company received

appointed date for both Purvanchal Expressway packages on October 10,

2018, which may start contributing to revenues from Q4FY19E. Appointed

date for Nagpur-Mumbai Expressway is expected in December, 2018.

Taking cues from such a sharp execution pick-up in FY19E, we expect a

robust topline growth of 45.1% to | 3911.3 crore in FY18E-20E.

Healthy bid pipeline ahead...

NHAI has invited bids for 70 EPC & 30 HAM projects worth | 70,000 crore,

with due date expected in the next two to three months. These bids

include 1250 km Delhi-Mumbai Expressway (25 packages) and 1316 km

Amritsar-Jamnagar Expressway (22 packages), which are the biggest of

these. The major component of these projects is expected on an EPC

basis. PNC expects incremental | 4000 crore of opportunities in H2FY19E

from above mentioned bid pipeline.

Equity requirement worth | 832 crore for HAM projects...

PNC has seven HAM projects with bid project cost of | 8897 crore in its

kitty. While four of these projects are under execution, three are in the

process of receiving financial closure. These projects have total equity

requirement of | 832 crore of which ~| 50 crore was infused in FY18. The

company will infuse an aggregate of | 220 crore, | 250 crore & | 312 crore

in FY19E, FY20E & FY21E, respectively, which will be met through internal

accruals. Also, it has plans to monetise four of its BOT assets, of which,

Ghaziabad-Aligarh BOT asset is undergoing due diligence while talks on

the term sheet are underway. With a lean balance sheet, strong internal

accruals & inflows from monetisation of some projects, funding this equity

requirement should not be an issue for PNC.

Buoyant orderbook lends comfort for strong execution; maintain BUY…

PNC’s robust order book, strong execution capabilities and lean balance

sheet with better WC management reinforce our confidence on the future

prospects of the company. Also, we believe PNC is well poised to capture

huge opportunities ahead. We expect revenues to grow at a CAGR of

45.1% in FY18-20E given the significant ramp-up in execution from FY19E

onwards with receipt of appointed dates for several big-ticket projects.

Hence, we maintain our BUY rating on the stock with a target price of |

PNC’s robust order book, strong execution capabilities and lean balance

sheet with better WC management reinforce our confidence on the future

prospects of the company. Also, we believe PNC is well poised to capture

huge opportunities ahead. We expect revenues to grow at a CAGR of

190. We value its construction business at | 164/share (at 8x FY20E

EPC business: We value PNC’s EPC business at | 164/share (at 8x FY20E

EV/EBITDA) considering its reputation of timely/early completion, strength

in balance sheet and better return profile.

BOT projects: We value PNC’s BOT project portfolio on a free cash flow to

equity (FCFE) basis. To value it, we consider a traffic growth rate of 5%

per annum (except Ghaziabad Aligarh project where we have considered

a nil growth in FY18E traffic due to a sharp hike in toll rate following full

CoD) and then 5% per annum). We also consider the cost of equity of

13% for toll based projects and 12% for annuity projects. Based on these

assumptions, we value PNC’s BOT portfolio at | 53/share.

We value its construction business at | 164/share (at 8x

FY20E EV/EBITDA) and BOT & HAM projects at |

53/share (traffic growth assumption – 5% per annum)

We consider traffic growth assumption of 5% per

annum and CoE of 12% for annuity and 13% for toll

based projects
