Higher long term Visibility Ashok Leyland (AL) is the second-largest Commercial Vehicle (CV) manufacturer in India. It has a strong presence in the truck segment with a market share of 32% as on FY20. Q4FY20 revenue de-grew by 57%YoY due to subdued demand and production lockdown. However, gross margin improved owing to lower RM cost and better product mix & supplier discount. Margin contracted to -640bps to 4.8% owing to higher other expenses. We expect the volume numbers to stabilize at current level and going forward the margin to pick up on QoQ basis. Positively, AL is carrying Nil BS–IV inventory and transition was smooth to BS-VI. We factor 78% growth in Q2 to Q3 & 40% in Q3 to Q4 due to seasonally strong quarters and historical lower base. We believe AL is likely to gain market share owing to new trucks in the modular platform and launch of LCV brand Phoenix for FY21. Considering the near term headwinds on account of limited infrastructure activities and utilization we value AL at 10x FY22 EV/EBITDA estimate and recommend Buy rating at CMP.

Management, however, believes that CV industry has bottomed out and will see some recovery from FY21 onwards. AL is using this slowdown as an opportunity to implement some structural measures including cost reduction, focus on productivity and cash flows, and new product development, which management believes will make the company more resilient. The cost reducing program (K54) is on track to save Rs5bn in FY20 and the company is looking at another Rs6.5bn saving in FY21. Management is also focusing on inventory rationalization to facilitate a smooth BS-VI transition. Total inventory (company+dealer) reduced from 27,500 units at the start of the 2QFY20 to ~6,500 now. Inventory would come down to zero by March end. The company will introduce modular platform across its entire product portfolio from April’20 along with BS-VI. Other area that management will focus on is to become asset light. Hence, this year’s capex is down to about Rs13bn vs earlier guided Rs18bn. It will focus on higher ROCE segments like exports, LCVs, defense and spare parts to drive profitability growth going forward. We believe that all these measures will help AL when the CV cycle revives. We have revised our volume forecast by -6.3%/-6.3% and PAT forecast by -15.7%/-4.3% for FY21/22E, respectively. We raise our target multiple to 20x from 17x earlier (last 5 year’s average one year forward PER is 21x) as we expect a revival in CV cycle from FY21, led by better GDP growth and lower base. Our revised target price is Rs98 and we maintain our BUY rating.

Scrap-page policy will ramp up demand: Government has taken big strides in setting up the policy framework for scrapping of old vehicles and is devising incentive plans for stakeholders so that vehicle owners find it worthwhile in scrapping their old vehicle for newer vehicles. There has already been plans by few OEM’s to set up scrap-page plants. The tentative deadline floating in the media for a formal launch is slated to be in July of 2020. Nearly, 10 million vehicles will be under the radar for scrapping in FY20 and 25 million by FY25. This may give a significant boost to demand. We reiterate a Buy on Ashok Leyland with a TP of Rs 97.

impending scrappage policy to drive volume growth in the long run. Revenue and PAT to grow by 11.4% and 20.4%YoY for FY21 and factor 9% volume growth for the same period.

Company will introduce modular platform across its entire product portfolio from April’20 along with BS-VI, which will allow customers to customize the products as per its utilization and will be an attractive value proposition for customers. New models on modular platform will come with right as well as left hand drive so it can be exported. This platform reduces manufacturing complexity and improves productivity, thus making operations more efficient. We believe that all these measures will help AL when the CV cycle revives. We have revised our volume forecast by -12%/-5%+5% and PAT forecast by -28%/-10%/11% for FY20/21/22. We raise our target multiple to 17x from 15x earlier (last 5 year average one year forward PER is 21x) as we expect a revival in CV cycle from FY21, led by better GDP growth and lower base.

Ashok Leyland has been trading at its lower end (near mean -1 SD) of its PE based valuations for past several months and even a mean reversion to its historic valuation translates to a 10-15% upside in the stock from its current levels. With the CV cycle going through its trough, government focused on demand revival (as seen through various fiscal initiatives like tax cuts, accelerated depreciation), and other demand impetus such as discounts, festive season buying & pre-BS6 buying should lead to a rebound in prices of Ashok Leyland to its mean PE valuations.

We revise Ashok Leyland Ltd (ALL) to a HOLD given the bleak demand environment on CV industry and broader economic slowdown. ALL being a dominant player in MHCV segment is well placed but the demand conditions may not pick up for entire FY20 if BS6 pre buying does not materialize. Exports would only pick up aggressively post expansion of product base and defense orders will come in H2FY20 which needs to be watched closely.

Management expects commodity prices to remain moderate, which will help stabilize margins. The company is also focusing on efficient cost management across all the functions and expects to save costs totaling to Rs5,000mn in the current year. The AL stock price has corrected 23% in the last one month and 42% in the last one year. We believe the stock post correction trades at an attractive valuation of 13x FY21E EPS and we value it at 15x to arrive at our TP of Rs80. We maintain our BUY rating.

The current pain in the market is roughly expected to continue till Q2 FY20. However, from Q2 onwards, for the next three quarters, we may see some recovery coming back in the form of BS VI pre-buying albeit at a slower rate. Good monsoon and higher influx of infra projects may drive demand. However, there lies a lot of uncertainty in demand based on current difficult market scenario. On the margin front, LCV merger, Modular program, cost cutting initiatives, price hikes etc will drive margins, however, higher discounting may steal the steam. Proactive measures taken in time to address the demand slowdown and market share gains during tough times gives us comfort. Reduction in inventories and limited capex growth will lead to maintenance of robust return ratios. With strong prospects for LCV business and increased focus from management, we still remain sanguine on the stock. We maintain BUY rating with a reduced target of ₹ 80 on uncertain volume outlook.

We value the company at 13x PE multiple on FY21 earnings. Our revised target price is Rs 100. We reiterate our NEUTRAL rating on the stock. We believe that while the stock could rally on expectations of a pickup in government’s infrastructure spend, it should be used to reduce holdings. AL has to contend with several headwinds including (1) A weakening product mix (post axle load norm change), (2) Aggressive competition (Tata Motors will launch several new variants this year) and, (3) A change in management at a time of transition to BSVI (the company is searching for a new CEO post Mr. Dasari’s departure).

While the CV space is in the midst of muted growth owing to high base, NBFC liquidity issues and revised axle load norms in the core M&HCV segment, BS-VI related pre- buying would lift industry volumes in H2FY20E. However, peculiar to ALL is the looming leadership void at the top post i.e. the resignation of its MD & CEO, with the associated uncertainty a significant overhang on the company’s prospects. We estimate sales, PAT will register 13.1% and 20.9% CAGR, respectively, in FY18-20E. Incorporating the above, we arrive at a target price of | 85 using SOTP valuation method for ALL, assigning 5x EV/EBITDA to core CV business on FY20E numbers & 0.4x P/B on its long term investments.

Ashok Leyland posted a healthy Q3FY19 with EBITDA margin of 10.3% in Q3FY19 vs 11.6% last year, it has maintained consistent double digit operating margins despite pricing pressure and higher input costs. ALL’s volumes in Q3FY19 has declined by 6% at 43,763 majorly due to fall in M&HCV by 17% on account of high base effect last year where ALL had grown by 42% however the LCV volumes grew by 28% in Q3FY19. Revenues of the company declined by 11% on a Y-o-Y basis at Rs 6,245 Cr due to slow down in CV sales and profit after tax declined by 21% at Rs 381 Crs. ALL has successfully completed the merger of its subsidiaries in the LCV business which has shown results in the form of synergy, cost reduction and market share gains. We believe ALL’s restructuring of its LCV business along with de-risking its overall product portfolio and ramp up in exports will result in higher ROEs over FY20.

While Ashok Leyland’s Q3FY19 performance surpassed our expectations with operating margins at 10.3% (80bps ahead of PLe) and PAT ~12% above our estimates, concerns regarding the liquidity issue in the industry, impact of axle norm changes and the high base of last year keep the near term volume growth outlook subdued. With the pre-buying expected ahead of BS VI implementation, FY20E should see a surge in volumes, however, industry growth beyond that is expected to remain muted (wherein increasing government focus on infrastructure activities and the anticipated scrappage policy should help negate some de-growth in FY21). Softening commodity prices will aid some margin improvement over Q4FY19 / Q1FY20 but the heavy discounting in the industry will continue to weigh on the margins. We continue to build in volume growth of 11.9/10.8%/-4.3% for FY19/20/21E and given the valuation comfort, maintain BUY with a lower target price of Rs103, at 9.5x Sep’20E EV/EBITDA (earlier 12x Mar’20E).
