**[investwise]** Anand Rathi Recommends concenterated Buying In Polyplex

 

Anand Rathi

Polyplex Industries-Sector To Re-Rate post Q2 Results

BUY

 

Based on the broad estimates of earnings for FY11 we find POLYPLEX to be the most attractive pick right now in the industry and we suggest a BUY.

 

Industry as a whole will perform extremely well, so we suggest a hold on GARWARE POLSTER, UFLEX, & JBF IND. While to get better out performance within sector, we suggest switch from ESTER & JINDAL POLYSTER to POLYPLEX.

 

POLYSTER FILM - SECTOR UPDATE:

 
 

We were bullish on Polyster Film Industry since December 2009; when we first recommended JBF Ind. (@ Rs.99/- in December 2009), after visiting JBF-RAK, Dubai facilities, engaged in Polyster Film manufacturing. There after in March 2010 we recommended Garware Polyster (@ Rs. 53.50) based on improving realisation for polyster films on month-on-month basis.

 

Again based on further improvement in realisation of Ployster Films we suggested an intregated flexible packaging player UFLEX (@ Rs. 125 in May 2010) which is big player in Polyster Film and having global manufacturing facilities also.

 

There after we suggested to buy ESTER IND. (@ Rs.30in July 2010). Since then we are tracking the price realisation in this sector along with trends in input cost which are as follows.

 

Price Trends

 

Standard PET film prices risen Month on Month since Feb'10 as follows - Rs.98/Kg in Feb'10 to Rs.101 March ;Rs.106 April ;Rs. 113 May ;Rs.125, from Mid-June ;Rs.140 in late June and Rs.145 in July'10. Now industry insiders suggest a further significant (Rs.15-20/ kg) hike in Polyster Film prices from September 2010.

 

This suggests that average realization which was Rs.114/ Kg for June'10 Qtr may go up to Rs 140 plus in Sept Qtr , so  next Qtr performance will be extremely good for the industry. (Much much better than June Qtr.)

 

This is so because inputs (MEG & PTA) prices were more or less stable since last eight months due to abundant supplies in global markets and now weak Oil prices.

 

We are expecting a quantum jump in September quarter PAT and in most cases it will be double or more then double of June quarter PAT.

 

Improving cash flow for industry will make their balance sheet much healthier (Reduction in debt burden) going forward and interest burden will come done significantly for the industry as a whole.

 

Considering the overall trend we expect the sector to be re-rate in next couple of quarters, due to extra-ordinary healthy margins, improved debt profile and good growth prospects.

 

 

Safe Harbor Statement:

Fw: Investor's Eye: Pulse - Annual supplement to Foreign Trade Policy; Update - HUL (Shift in focus to maintain profitability)

 

Sharekhan Investor's Eye
 
Investor's Eye
[August 25, 2010] 
Summary of Contents

PULSE TRACK 

  • Annual supplement to the Foreign Trade Policy 2009-14


STOCK UPDATE 

Hindustan Unilever
Cluster: Apple Green
Recommendation: Reduce
Price target: Rs243
Current market price: Rs268

Shift in focus to maintain profitability 

  • Price increases in the soaps portfolio: Hindustan Unilever Ltd (HUL) has implemented price hikes/grammage reductions in its soap portfolio to partially offset the high costs of inputs (especially palm oil and packaging). The company has hiked the price of Lifebuoy soap of 120gm stock keeping unit (SKU) to Rs16 from Rs15 earlier (that is a price increase of about 7%). It has also stopped the promotional offer on Lux soap by reducing the grammage from 110gm to 100gm, keeping the price unchanged at Rs18 (that is a price increase of 10%).
  • Shift in focus to maintain profitability: The prices of palm oil and HDPE have shown an upward trend for the past two quarters. Hence, the receding benefit of a low-cost inventory along with higher spends towards advertisement and promotional activities (to improve market share in the key categories) will put intense pressure on the profitability of the company in the coming quarter. HUL?s margin slumped by 289 basis points year on year (yoy) to 12.5% in Q1FY2011 (on account of higher advertisement and promotional spends) and to prevent any further erosion in the margin the company has shifted its focus from improving sales volume/market share (in the key categories) to maintaining profitability. 
  • Likely impact on sales volume and market share: The growth in HUL?s soap sales volume is recovering on the back of the pricing actions and promotional activities undertaken by the company. The soap sales volume of HUL grew at a lower single digit (while Godrej Consumer Products? soap sales volume declined by 9% yoy) in Q1FY2011. However, in the present competitive scenario where new entrants such as ITC have become aggressive to gain market share, the current price hikes of HUL would put pressure on the company?s soap sales volume and might also lead to a decline in its market share in the coming quarters. 
  • Outlook and valuation: The buy-back price of Rs280 per share has lent support to the stock price allowing it to stay above Rs260 levels. However the weak business fundamentals of the company do not justify this price. Thus, in view of the subdued profitability growth in the coming quarters, we maintain our Reduce rating on the stock with a price target of Rs243. At the current market price the stock trades at 26.2x its FY2011E earnings per share (EPS) of Rs10.2 and 22x its FY2012E EPS of Rs12.2.
