Expect demand recovery from 3QFY21 driven by festive season
While 1QFY21 is expected to be a wash-out, demand recovery should happen around the
festive season (Sep’20 onwards). Thus, we expect three opportunities to emerge from this
adversity: (a) possible reset of global automotive supply chain, (b) vendor consolidation
and M&As, and (c) shift from public to private transport. We do see value emerging across
our auto coverage universe as reflected by the substantial moderation in implied terminal
growth rates. We prefer stocks that offer higher visibility of demand recovery, better
competitive positioning, scope of higher operating leverage and strong balance sheet. EIM
and MSIL are our top large-caps picks. Among mid-caps, we prefer ENDU.
1QFY21 to be a wash-out…
“There is a good reason to
believe that people who
were availing shared
mobility because of
affordability will now avoid
public transport and
therefore look to buy a car.
But it is important to keep in
mind that affordability will
play a big factor.”

With virtually zero sales in Apr’20 and continued weakness in May-Jun'20, we
expect 1QFY21 to be a complete wash-out. We estimate 1QFY21 volumes for
2Ws/PVs/CVs/tractors to decline 57%/55%/74%/38%.
Cost structure of OEMs is variable cost oriented due to higher outsourcing,
whereas component players have higher fixed cost structure, particularly for
companies with lesser dependence on the replacement market.
In OEMs, TTMT, EIM and AL have higher fixed cost. In components, MSS, MACA,
BOS and BHFC have higher operating leverage.
While balance sheet for auto OEMs (excl. TTMT) is strong with net cash, auto
ancillaries are a mixed bag with MSS, BHFC, CEAT and MACA having net debt.
…production ramp-up to take 3-6 months after lockdown is lifted…
Indian OEMs operate primarily out of nine states, of which Maharashtra, Tamil
Nadu, Haryana, Karnataka and Gujarat are major states. Within these states,
major clusters with developed ecosystems are in Pune, Delhi NCR, Chennai and
Bengaluru. All these major automotive clusters are listed as hotspots (Red
Zone), implying gradual normalization of production.
Import content in the Indian automotive industry should range between 15-20%
for key OEMs. Large part of these imports is from China (~27% of imports), EU
incl. the UK (~23%), South Korea (~10%), Japan (~9%) and the US (~7%).
While China is returning to normalcy in terms of production, we expect impact
on imports from EU and the US to be felt in May-Jun'20.

In our base case, we are expecting 'U' shaped demand recovery for 2Ws and PVs
from Sep-Oct'20 led by festive season demand pick-up. We estimate FY21E
volumes for 2Ws/PVs/CVs/Tractors to decline 10%/6%/13%/0%.
The pace of recovery would depend on several factors such as (a) time taken to
return to normalcy, (b) stimulus from the government, and (c) extent of
job/income losses.
In India, we see limited scope for auto-focused incentives, and hence, see low
probability of 'V' shaped recovery.

Opportunities in adversity – 3 prospects due to pandemic
Reset of automotive supply chain with de-risking from China:
China is one of
the critical suppliers in the global automotive supply chain with exports of
~USD80b (incl. tyres). COVID-19 would further influence the changing geo-
political equations and enhanced focus toward diversifying away from China.
We believe India can benefit from this shift though it needs to be competitive
and requires an enabling policy framework.
M&A opportunities as weaker players exit:
History suggests that such a crisis
could provide attractive opportunities, particularly in the component space, as
OEMs would avoid disruption by weeding out weaker suppliers.
Shift from public to private transports:
Initial response from countries like
China is changing consumer preference toward private transportation. We
believe this could be a transitory benefit even in India.
Framework for identifying winners
Owing to the several moving parts and uncertainties, we have designed a
framework to identify companies that are relatively better positioned v/s peers.
We evaluate OEMs
on four parameters – (a) pace of demand recovery, (b)
competitive intensity, (c) margin drivers, and (d) balance sheet strength – and
MSIL, EIM, BJAUT and ESC appear
best positioned on this framework.
For Auto Component players, we include two more parameters – global
exposure and risk of disruption. In the component space, our framework
identifies ENDU and CEAT as better positioned component players.
What are current valuations reflecting?
For all auto companies, FY21 is contributing <5% to the DCF-based fair value.
This compares with 20-58% correction in auto stock prices in CY20YTD.
We do see value emerging as is reflected in the substantially lower embedded
growth expectations with implied terminal growth of <5% for most companies.
When we compare damage to valuations (PB as proxy) as against damage to
business (RoE as proxy), EXID and BOS stand out favorably.
Valuation and view
The COVID-19 pandemic has not only put brakes on the initial signs of recovery
seen in 2Ws/PVs, but has also brought in uncertainty considering the several
unknowns associated with its impact. This potentially deepens the impact of BS6
related price increase on FY21 demand.
Valuations appear attractive across companies, but given the uncertain macro
environment and threat of the possible prolonged impact of Coronavirus, we
prefer stocks offering higher visibility of demand recovery, better competitive
positioning, scope of higher operating leverage and strong balance sheet.
EIM
and
MSIL
are our top large-caps picks. Among mid-caps, we prefer
ENDU.

1QFY21 to be a wash-out…
The lockdown, which has stretched for over a month, would impact the entire
auto/auto component industry as all operations (factory as well as showrooms)
are shut.
Even if the lockdown is lifted in mid-May’20, some challenges would remain
such as (a) production ramp-up for OEMs/vendors due to unavailability of
migrant labor, and (b) impact on imports from EU and the US.
This should result in acute demand weakness in the near term as it would
come on the back of steep price increase due to the BS6 transition, which has
anyways kept demand under check in 1HFY21.
With zero sales in Apr’20 and continued weak volumes in May-Jun’20, we
expect 1QFY21 to be a wash-out, reflecting the worst of the COVID-19 impact.
We estimate 1QFY21 volumes for 2Ws/PVs/CVs/tractors to decline
57%/55%/74%/38%.
Cost structure of OEMs is more variable due to higher outsourcing of
components. On the other hand, component players have higher fixed cost
structure, particularly for companies with lesser dependence on the
replacement market.
In OEMs, TTMT (~19% of sales), EIM (~13.5%) and AL (~12%) have higher fixed
costs (as % of sales). In components, MSS (~34.5), MACA (~30%), BOS (~22%)
and BHFC (~21.7%) have higher operating leverage.
Balance sheet for auto OEMs remains strong with net cash at aggregate level.
The only exception is TTMT with net auto debt of ~INR163b/INR526 at
standalone/consolidated level. In the auto component segment, financial
gearing is mixed. Capex heavy/M&A focused businesses like MSS, BHFC, CEAT
and MACA have net debt balance sheets, whereas BOS, EXID, ENDU and AMRJ
have net cash balance sheets.

…production ramp-up to take 3-6 months after lockdown is lifted…
Restarting of manufacturing operations involve multiple challenges, not just at
the OEM level but for the entire supply chain as well, emanating from (a)
tighter and restricted operating guidelines, (b) availability of migrant labor, and
(c) disruption of imports, particularly from the US/EU.
Indian OEMs operate primarily out of nine states, of which Maharashtra, Tamil
Nadu, Haryana, Karnataka and Gujarat are major states. Within these states,
major clusters with a developed ecosystem are in Pune, Delhi NCR, Chennai
and Bengaluru. All these major automotive clusters are listed as hotspots (Red
Zone) with large number of coronavirus infections.
Hence, we expect gradual resumption of production in these key clusters as
restricted movement would also delay migrant labor from returning to work.
Further, import content (including vendor imports) ranges between 15-20% for
key OEMs. Large part of these imports is from China (~27% of imports), EU incl.
the UK (~23%), South Korea (~10%), Japan (~9%) and the US (~7%).

While China is returning to normalcy in terms of production, we expect impact
on imports from EU and the US to be felt in May-Jun’20.
Given the expectation of demand recovery in 2HFY21, we believe production
ramp-up is a manageable challenge for the industry.

…while earliest demand recovery expected around festive
season (Sep’20)
While the lockdown is being lifted in a phased manner starting 20
th
Apr’20 , we
believe it would take at least 4-5 months for both demand and supply side to
normalize.
While demand was expected to be weak in 1HFY21 due to the impact of BS6
price increases (particularly for 2Ws/CVs), repercussions of the COVID-19

outbreak would further deepen the pain in 1HFY21 as well as potentially delay
recovery in 2HFY21.
In our
Base case,
we are expecting ‘U’ shaped demand recovery for 2Ws and
PVs from Sep-Oct’20 led by festive season demand pick-up. In the base case,
we expect control of the pandemic and gradual recovery after initial shock of
the outbreak reduces. We estimate FY21 volumes for 2Ws/PVs/CVs/tractors to
decline 10%/6%/13%/0%.
In our
Bull case,
we could see a faster ‘V’ shaped recovery led by (a) relevant
stimulus packages by the government, (b) consumers preferring private
transport over public transport, and (c) benefit of lower interest rates/oil
prices.
In our
Bear case,
we are assuming longer time for the pandemic to come under
control. We expect deeper impact on economic activity in FY21. This in turn
would see demand for autos take a substantial step-down from the low base of
FY20.
The pace of recovery would be dependent on several factors including (a) time
taken for normalcy to return, (b) stimulus from the government, and (c) extent
of job/income losses.
If we read through the pace of recovery in countries that were ahead of the
curve in this pandemic (China, South Korea, etc.), the level of inquiries after
lifting up of lockdown has been encouraging. This is partly driven by consumers
preferring private transport over public transport as well as incentives offered
by the government for the purchase of a PV.
In India, we see limited scope of such incentives, and hence, see low
probability of a ‘V’ shaped recovery.

Opportunities in adversity: Better prepared companies to come
out winning
‘Business as usual’ is not expected in the post COVID-19 world as there would
be some structural and transitory changes globally. This would open up few
opportunities for the companies that are well prepared. We list below three
opportunities which could open up for Indian companies.
Reset of automotive supply chain with de-risking from China:
China is one of
the critical suppliers in the global automotive supply chain with exports of
~USD80b (incl. tyres). Global sourcing teams have been evaluating de-risking of
the supply chain from China after heightened fears of the trade wars for the
last few years. COVID-19 would further influence the changing geo-political
equation and the enhanced focus toward diversification away from China (for
e.g. Japan has earmarked USD2.2b for shifting production from China). While
India needs to up its game to be competitive, an enabling policy framework is
needed to benefit from this shift. India auto component players should first
focus on capitalizing the import substitution opportunity by localizing imported
components and then pursue globalization of the same components once scale
is attained from domestic consumption.
M&A opportunities as weaker players exit:
Like the past crises, we expect
COVID-19 to result in severe pressure on weaker players in the global
automotive ecosystem. This would provide opportunity for prepared players to
either consolidate their position or enter new products/markets through M&A
7 May 2020

at reasonable valuations. History suggests that such a crisis could provide very
attractive opportunities, particularly in the component space, as OEMs would
like to avoid disruption by weeding out weaker suppliers.
Shift from public transport to private transports:
Initial response from
countries like China is changing consumer preference toward private
transportation post lifting of the lockdown. We believe this could be a
transitory benefit and would last till fear of the pandemic is fresh in the minds
of people. This trend would be witnessed, particularly in urban and semi-urban
markets for 2Ws (Entry, Executive and Scooter segment) and PVs (Entry and
Compact segment).

Framework for identifying winners
Owing to the several moving parts and uncertainties, we have designed a
framework to identify companies that are relatively better positioned v/s
peers. The parameters selected for the objective analysis are different for
OEMs and component players. We would link outcome of this framework with
current valuations to select our top picks.
For OEMs, the four parameters to identify winners are (a) pace of demand
recovery, (b) competitive intensity, (c) margin drivers, and (d) balance sheet
strength. For component players, the parameters for analysis are (a) pace of
demand recovery, (b) global exposure, (c) risk of disruption, and (d) balance
sheet strength.
On the demand side, we expect recovery to be faster for tractors, followed by
PVs, 2Ws and CVs (in the same order). Within segments, apart from segmental
growth expectations, we analyze OEMs based on their product pipeline and
relative positioning under BS6, which would influence the pace of recovery for
OEMs. Our analysis suggests that EIM, MSIL and ESC are relatively better
positioned for faster recovery.
Competitive intensity analysis encompasses magnitude of pricing competition,
risk of new entrants and segmental trend changes. EIM is the best positioned
with the least competitive intensity in its segment.

Margin drivers for OEMs analyzed include pricing actions, product mix changes,
Forex influence, cost cutting initiatives, fixed cost absorption, etc. EIM and
BJAUT seem to have favorable margin drivers for the next two years.
Balance sheets are fairly comfortable for most OEMs, with major ones having
net cash balance sheets, barring TTMT, TVSL and AL. However, for the purpose
of this analysis, we have tested OEMs for relative capex intensity, potential re-
capitalization of captive NBFCs, investments in subsidiaries, etc. MSIL, EIM,
BJAUT and ESC are best positioned here.
Summing up the above parameters, EIM is best positioned followed by MSIL in
Auto OEMs based on our framework.
For Auto Component players, we include two more parameters – global
exposure and risk of disruption. In the component space, our framework
identifies ENDU and CEAT as better positioned.

What are current valuations reflecting?
The Auto sector has been an underperformer for the last 12 months as well as
in CY20 so far, with absolute decline of 31%/32% for the NSE Auto Index in 1-
year/CY20YTD as against the decline in the Nifty 50 of 18%/24%.
This is a reflection of weakening volume outlook for the sector since the last 15
months or so. While the auto sector was primed for a comeback post the BS6
transition, the coronavirus outbreak has resulted in further deterioration in the
near-term volume outlook for the sector and pushed back recovery.
For all auto companies under our coverage, FY21 is contributing <5% to the
DCF-based fair value. This compares with 20-58% correction in the auto stock
prices in CY20YTD, implying either over-reaction to the problem or structural
and long-drawn impact of the pandemic.
After sharp correction in stock prices, we do see value emerging across our
auto coverage universe as reflected in substantially lower embedded growth
expectations.
Our reverse DCF analysis suggests substantial moderation in the implied
terminal growth rates of our auto coverage. Barring MSIL, all OEMs have
implied terminal growth of <5% (MSIL is at 5.4%). In the Auto Component
space, implied terminal growth is <4% for all companies except BOS and AMRJ.
When we compare FY22E P/B based valuations vis-à-vis FY22E RoEs, all the
stocks under our coverage are trading well below 10-year average P/B as
FY22E RoEs are well below 10-year average (except for ESC). Interestingly,
barring MSIL, ESC and CEAT, all stocks are trading below 1 standard deviation
below 10-year average P/B.
When we compare damage to valuations (P/B as proxy) as against damage to
business (RoE as proxy), EXID and BOS stand out favorably with steep discount
on P/B basis (to 1SD below average P/B) but limited dilution in RoEs (<15%
lower than 5-year/10-year average RoEs).

FY21 contributes <5% to DCF-based fair value

Valuation and view
The COVID-19 outbreak has not only put brake on the initial signs of recovery
seen in 2Ws/PVs, but has also brought in uncertainty considering the several
unknowns associated with the impact of Coronavirus. This potentially deepens
the impact of BS6 related price increase on FY21 demand.
Pre-COVID-19, we were expecting recovery to be faster for Tractors (no impact
of BS6), PVs (considering lesser price inflation due to BS6), followed by 2Ws
and CVs. However, post-Coronavirus, we expect 2Ws to also see recovery
along with PVs. Our view largely remains unchanged for Tractors (limited
impact of Coronavirus) and CVs (excess capacity absorption to get further
pushed back).

On the other hand, 2Ws/CVs are likely to be the most impacted due to very
high cost inflation. The impact on CVs would be determined by economic
viability and freight availability. 2Ws could see pre-buying and consequent
weakness. However, both these segments could see possible stimulus in the
form of GST cut (for 2Ws) and scrappage policy (for CVs).
We had lowered our FY21E EPS estimates in the 4QFY20 preview for all
companies under our coverage, with a double-digit cut from 10% to 55%, with
the highest cut in EPS for companies with high operating leverage and/or high
global exposure. These estimates would see further changes as more clarity
emerges on impact of the Coronavirus.
Valuations appear attractive across companies, but given the uncertain macro
environment and threat of possible prolonged impact of Coronavirus, we
prefer stocks offering higher visibility of demand recovery, better competitive
positioning, scope of higher operating leverage and strong balance sheet.
EIM and MSIL are our top large-caps picks. Among mid-caps, we prefer ENDU.
We see deep value in global plays like TTMT and MSS as implied terminal
growth is negative for both these companies. Between these two names, we
prefer MSS due to better competitive positioning, declining capex requirement
and lesser financial gearing.
We also see high margin of safety in MM as embedded growth expectations
are low. While near-term catalysts for re-rating are not visible currently,
change in the senior management could be the turning point.
In mainstream 2Ws, we have Neutral rating on all the three OEMs due to
higher cost inflation for BS6 compliance, changing segmental trends and high
competitive intensity. Within mainstream 2Ws, BJAUT is relatively better
placed due to diversified revenue stream (exports and 3Ws), strong premium
motorcycle portfolio, possible first mover advantage in e-scooters and benefits
of favorable Forex.
