Pidilite Industries Moderate revenue growth; weak industrial sales Pidilite’s 1QFY14 revenues were 4% below our estimates and PAT was in line with our estimates. Overall revenue growth of 12% YoY was supported by 14% YoY growth in the Consumer and Bazaar business. The industrial business remained weak, with revenue growth of only 1% YoY. Gross margin expansion of ~140bps flowed down to PAT, helping net income increase 27% YoY. We expect the Industrial Products segment to remain weak for a few more quarters. Pidilite remains a high-quality defensive play in the consumer sector. However, the performance of the company's foreign subsidiaries and uncertainty over the final outcome of the elastomer project does not justify the current trading multiple of 26.0x FY14 EPS. We reiterate our SELL stance with a target price of Rs227. Results overview: Pidilite’s 1QFY14 results were 4% below our estimates on revenues and 1% below on PAT. Revenues increased 12% YoY during the quarter with the Consumer and Bazaar business growing 14% YoY (we estimate ~8% YoY volume growth in the Fevicol portfolio) and the industrial products business growing at just 1% YoY. Lower raw material prices during the quarter helped gross margins expand 140bps YoY to 46%. Forex gains recorded during the quarter helped in EBITDA margin expansion of 215bps to 21%, with EBITDA growth of 25% YoY. Lower interest costs offset lower other income, leading to PAT growth of 27% YoY. The company also announced the acquisition of Suparshva Adhesives Ltd, a company with a turnover of less than 1% of Pidilite’s turnover (possibly ~Rs300mn). Where do we go from here? Whilst the Consumer and Bazaar segment remains a key strength for Pidilite, we believe the Industrial Products segment will continue to face a moderation in demand for a few more quarters. With strong brand recall in the Indian adhesives and sealants segment, lack of organised competition for its flagship product, Fevicol (accounting for more than 50% of total sales), and high customer loyalty, we continue to view Pidilite as a high-quality defensive play in the consumer sector. However, the performance of the company's foreign subsidiaries and uncertainty over the final outcome of the elastomer project does not justify the current trading multiple of 26.0x FY14 EPS. The Group has already spent more than Rs3.5bn in capex on the elastomer project over the past four years. We await clarity from the management on the outcome of the elastomer project. Valuation: The stock currently trades at 26.0x FY14 EPS and 22.5x FY15 EPS, at a ~15% discount to its FMCG peer median. Pidilite has reported revenue CAGR of 16% over FY08-13 and we expect the revenue growth momentum to continue over FY13-16. We estimate earnings CAGR of 18% for Pidilite over FY13-16 and we reiterate our SELL stance on the stock with a target price of Rs227, an implied P/E multiple of 23.4x for FY14 and 20.3x for FY15. Margin contraction (due to INR depreciation) and muted sales growth (as the construction industry and discretionary spending remain weak) are likely to be negative catalysts going forward. We do not expect any material changes to our forecasts for Pidilite following the results announcement.
