On the PBT front, it grew 107% YoY to | 17.0 crore and was significantly ahead of our expectation of | 6.8 crore The order book stands at | 8,346 crore, implying a book to bill ratio of 3.1x on a TTM basis, providing strong visibility for growth over the next few years.

We believe SEL is well placed to benefit from this huge opportunity. Currently, SEL has an equity commitment of | 250 crore (~| 85 crore already infused) over the next two years for the current BOT portfolio. To fund the same, it intends to use proceeds from securitisation of the Ahmedabad Ring Road, along with NCD proceeds of | 130 crore at SIPL. Consequently, we do not see any equity gap in the current SIPL BOT portfolio. As on date, SEL has done capex of | 98 crore and as per the management no further capex is required in any verticals.

Strong visibility in construction business… The current order book stands at | 8,346 crore, at 3.1x FY14 revenues providing strong revenue visibility.

Fund raising through QIP, warrants to boost growth…

SEL has raised | 248.4 crore via QIP by issuing ~1.2 crore shares at a fixed price of | 216/share. In addition to that, warrants conversion to 0.8 crore of equity share at the price of | 116 per share has led to infusion of | 92.8 crore by promoters, where | 23.2 crore was already received at the time of issue of share warrants. The proceeds from this would be used to meet future working capital and equipment capex. Hence, we have incorporated an increase in shareholder’s equity in our financials and valuation.

Robust construction order book to drive revenues, going ahead… Overall, SEL’s order book is currently healthy at | 8,346 crore, implying a book to bill ratio of 3.1x on a TTM basis providing visibility for the next couple of years. The strong order inflow in the irrigation and mining sector has reduced its dependence on the transportation segment. Over the past four years, SEL has improved its presence in the irrigation & mining segment from 26% of total order book as on FY11 to 56% as on Q2FY15. Similarly, the transportation segment now constitutes 44% of the order book vs. 74% in FY11. Given the strong order book, we expect construction revenues to grow at 23.7% CAGR in FY14-16E to | 3609 crore.

EBITDA to grow at 25.1% CAGR during FY14-16E with stable margins… SEL’s construction business has historically enjoyed 10.5-11% margins. The margins had dropped to 8.9% in FY13, given the unabsorbed fixed cost on account of slower execution. In FY14, it has regained its previous margins of 10.5% with a pick-up in execution, which we believe would be stable, going ahead, at ~10.7-10.8% in FY15E and FY16E. Exhibit 10: Margins to inch up…

Bottomline to grow at 25.4% CAGR during FY14-16E… The execution delay had also impacted the bottomline, which had declined 47.3% to | 74.1 crore in FY13. The earnings, however, climbed back in FY14 to | 106.2 crore with a sharp execution across BOT projects. Going ahead, given that all projects of SEL are financially closed (except one annuity based), there is no internal risk on the execution implying a healthy topline growth and stable margins. We have incorporated higher depreciation due to a change in depreciation policy as per the new Companies Act and lower tax rate as guided by the management in our estimate of the earnings. Consequently, we expect SEL’s net income to grow at a CAGR of 25.4% in FY14-16E despite higher depreciation charges. On a cash profit basis, we expect 28.6% CAGR in FY14-16E. Exhibit 11: PAT trend

In FY14, it has regained its previous margins of 10.6% with

a pick-up in execution, which we believe would be stable,

going ahead, at 10.7-10.8% in FY15E and FY16E

We have incorporated higher depreciation due to a change

in depreciation policy as per new Companies Act and lower

tax rate as guided by the management into our estimate of

the earnings. This would lead to 25.4% CAGR in bottomline

to | 166.9 crore in FY16

Return ratios to improve… The return ratios for SEL’s standalone business were in the range of ~20-21% in FY11 and FY12 given the sharp execution. The same had slumped to ~8% in FY13. With an improvement in execution and stable margins supporting the healthy bottomline growth and increase in equity base through QIP & conversion of warrants, we expect the RoE and RoCE of SEL’s standalone business to improve to 10.9% and 11.4%, respectively, in FY16E.

Conference call highlights: • The project wise equity requirement is SUTPL – | 200 crore, RPTL –

| 35 crore and MBCPNL – | 16 crore, which will be equally infused in FY15 and FY16

• The company has already done capex in equipment required for the transportation and mining segment (~| 98 crore till date). It will not be incurring any capex in FY15E for any segment. If the company bags road projects worth more than | 6,000 crore then it may need to do equipment capex

• Traffic improvement has been seen in road projects such as BHTPL, ARRIL and HYTPL. Also, a positive trend has been seen in MBCPNL

• The management has guided for revenue growth of 25% and tax rate of 33% (after completion of Chhindwara project where it enjoys 80I benefit) in FY15E

• Sadbhav Infrastructure Project (SIPL) is increasing its stake in SPVs as the management believes the worst is behind for BOT projects and higher benefits would be reaped by increasing its stake. SIPL is in the process of increasing its stake in the Mysore Bellary project by 24% (stake post acquisition: 74%) and Hyderabad Yadgiri project by 40% (stake post acquisition: 100%) from GKC. Also, 20% acquisition from the Patel Infra in the Ahmedabad Ring Road (stake post acquisition: 100%) is under progress

With an improvement in execution and stable margins

supporting healthy bottomline growth, we expect the RoE

and RoCE of SEL standalone business to improve to 10.9%

and 11.4%, respectively, in FY16E

Outlook and valuation SEL remains our top pick in the sector on the back of a strong order book, well funded equity for BOT projects portfolio, strong execution track record and better earning CAGR. We maintain our BUY recommendation with an SOTP based target price of | 290.

To value each project, we have considered traffic growth of 6% per annum and toll growth rate as per the agreement (either 5% per annum or 18% after every three years). Furthermore, we have considered CoE of 12% for operational projects and 13% for under construction projects. Construction business: We have valued SEL’s construction business at | 140/share (8x FY16E EV/EBITDA).
