Operational performance beats estimates:
COXK reported overall revenue of
INR4.6b (est. INR4.2b) in 3QFY15, as against INR4.1b in 3QFY14, marking a YoY growth
of 14.3%. EBITDA margin expanded 690bp from 25.8% in 3QFY14 to 32.7% (est. 31.7%)
led by non-consolidation of camping operations. EBITDA in Leisure business grew 3%
to INR1.11b, in Education grew 22% to INR250m and in Meininger business grew 36%
to INR190m. Hence, reported PAT stood at -INR139m (est. INR246m), against
INR309m in 3QFY14, impacted by translation related forex loss of INR652m.
Growth led by Meininger and Leisure India; Leisure International declines YoY:
During the quarter, Meininger business grew by 161% to INR810m, Leisure India grew
by 15% to INR1.10b and Education grew by 6% to INR920m. Meininger business
continues to post strong growth led by better capacity utilization which stood at 71%
during the quarter. On the negative side, Leisure International growth stood at -13%,
with a decline in business across Europe, Australia and Japan. Going forward, we
expect strong growth to continue in Leisure India and expect a 18% CAGR over FY15E-
17E, and similarly expect robust growth for Education and Meininger businesses (15%
and 22% CAGR) respectively. Given weak sentiments, especially in Europe, we expect
Leisure International business to report a muted growth of 5% CAGR over FY15E-17E.
De-leveraging process on right track:
COXK retired debt worth INR7.3b (INR6b Indian
debt and INR1.3b foreign debt) from QIP proceeds. This will result in interest cost
savings of INR150-180m per quarter going forward. Management maintains its
guidance of INR5b annual debt retirement over FY15-17, which should reduce net
debt/equity from 2.3x in FY14 to 0.4x by FY17E.
Valuation and view:
We believe COXK is on the right path of deleveraging its balance
sheet led by the sale of camping business and the recently-concluded INR10b QIP. We
expect COXK to be a key beneficiary of discretionary spends revival in India, and with
robust outlook on overseas education businesses as well as divestment of non-core
camping business, we believe the company is well placed. The stock trades at 12.4x
FY16E and 10.1x FY17E earnings. Maintain
Buy
with a target price of INR380 (valuing
the stock at 12x FY17E EPS of INR31.7).

Leisure India reports robust growth, while Leisure International disappoints
Leisure India grew by 15% to INR1,100m.
COXH launched Summer Campaign for Domestic & Outbound Holidays during
the quarter and received encouraging response to European & American
packages in the Outbound space.
Similarly it also launched a unique holiday proposition with Holiday 365 Plan for
the Domestic Market which elicited strong response.
Leisure International disappointed this quarter with growth standing at -13%
with decline in business across Europe, Australia and Japan.
For Leisure International, even as revenue growth was weak at -13%, EBITDA
decline was contained at -4% as margins expanded 300bp YoY from 37% to 40%.
Going forward, we expect strong growth to continue in Leisure India and expect
18% CAGR over FY15-17.
Given weak sentiments, especially in European markets we expect Leisure
International business to report muted growth of 5% CAGR over FY15-17.

Debt reduction on track
COXH retired debt worth INR7.3b (INR6b Indian debt and INR1.3b foreign debt)
during the quarter from proceeds of recently concluded INR10b QIP.
This will result in interest cost saving of INR150-180m per quarter.
Management has guided for annual debt retirement of INR5b over FY15-17.
Gross debt on books stood at INR40b while net debt stood at INR25b.
We believe COXK is on the right track for balance sheet de-leveraging, which will
reduce net debt/equity from 2.3x in FY14 to 0.4x by FY17E.

Valuation and view
We value COXK at a multiple of 12x FY17E EPS as against its 5 year average multiple
of 10.3x, which we believe is justified considering:
Strong brand equity with market leadership position
COXK is a 250-year-old brand in the travel and tourism industry and enjoys 30%
market share in outbound travel market which stands at USD5b. Its economies of
scale and strong brand, enable it earn higher gross margins (20-22%) in outbound
segment compared to Thomas Cook (~12%) and other small players (~8-9%
margins). COXK’s international presence brings significant value proposition as it
enables it to understand international tourist markets better and also offer lower
cost to consumers, compared to peers, due to higher scale of operations, which
ensures lower cost sourcing.
Significantly de-leveraged its balance sheet
With a view to de-leverage its balance sheet, COXK sold its camping business,
resulting in proceeds of INR8.9b and recently concluded an equity fund raising
amounting to INR10b. We expect further de-leveraging which should drive Net
Debt-Equity lower from 2.3x in FY14 to 0.4x in FY17. Similarly, we expect Net Debt to
EBITDA to decline from 4.6x in FY14 to 1.4x in FY17. Thus, in line with the
management’s stated objective, COXK has significantly improved its balance sheet
and liquidity position, enabling the management to now focus on core operations.
Discretionary spend revival, operating leverage – additional earnings levers
COXK’s travel and tourism business will benefit from revival in discretionary spends
in India, due to an improving consumer sentiment. Similarly, with concerted efforts
by management on increasing utilization in PGL and NST in the lean season, success
in these initiatives can drive strong margin improvement, and can thus surprise
earnings going forward.
