Pfizer Q4CY09 Result Update ; Raising target price ; BUY; Target: Rs 1040
Pfizer Q4CY09 results were disappointing with net profit down by 6% to Rs288mn (est. of Rs366mn). This was significantly below our expectations of Rs366mn owing to lower than estimated operating margins (15% vs. est. of 21.3%). Though revenue was in-line (up by 10%) driven by 22% growth in the Animal Healthcare segment & 9% increase in Pharma business, operating margins was mainly impacted (up 50bps yoy; down 930bps qoq) because of higher raw material costs and price reduction of Becosules. Poor operating performance and lower other income (declined by 27% to Rs146mn) resulted in 6% decline to APAT. For CY09, company reported a) revenue of Rs7.7bn (up by 13%), EBIDTA margins of 19.9% (contraction of 175bps) and c) EPS of Rs48.5 vs. est. of Rs51. Going forward, we expect company to grow in-line with the industry growth on the back of a) new launches both from parent's pipeline as well as branded generic portfolio, b) focus on key brands and c) market expansion in the rural areas. Tweaking earning estimates marginally by 2% and 1% to Rs56.7 and Rs65.6 owing to lower interest income. We are of the view that Pfizer-Wyeth merger in

Tata Motors 3QFY10 Consolidated Result Update ; JLR surprises positively, Maintain SELL ; Target: Rs 606
Tata Motors' (TML) 3QFY10 consolidated results were ahead of expectation due to strong performance by JLR (net profit of GBP 55mn against expectation GBP 30mn). This was due to (1) favorable volume/region mix (higher sales of LR) (2) lower raw material cost pressure and (3) better pricing power. We had factored in a strong recovery in net residual value for JLR products in FY11 and hence not changing our assumptions for FY11. TML has provided Rs 10.9 (up 47% QoQ) in reserves as actuarial loss on pension revaluations at JLR Similarly, TML has classified financing cost of Rs 1.1bn as extraordinary expense.
We have upgraded our FY10 JLR estimates from net loss of GBP 138mn to GBP 50mn. We maintain our FY11 estimates. We expect strong show to continue for two quarters due to base effect (YoY) for volumes, pricing and lower RM cost (as contracts are due for renewal in June 2010).
We continue to have concerns with respect to the balance sheet of the company (net automotive D/E of 4.3x, ROCE of 14%, P/BV of 3.6x - before adjusting for goodwill). Hence we are not comfortable giving a higher valuation multiple to stock. We continue to value the stock at discount to other automobile stocks.
We have valued TML standalone at target EV/EBIDTA multiple of the standalone business to 7x (20% discount to M&M). We have valued JLR at 5x EV/EBIDTA and other subsidiaries (ex TMFSL) at 10% discount to TML. We maintain our SELL rating on the stock with a target price of Rs 606 (upgraded by 4%).

After the retest of the neckline, from which the inverse H & S pattern saw a breakout, Nifty never looked back during the course of the day, flourishing northward till the final minute. The hourly and daily momentum cycles indicates that Nifty has a very high probability to heighten upto 5100, which is the conservative target of inverse H & S pattern.
