Alok Industries Ltds (Aloks) standalone Q6FY13* results were higher than CRISIL Researchs expectations. Revenues increased 12.5% y-o-y driven by the fabric and home textile business. Working capital remains under pressure despite improvement during the quarter. Alok is focusing on exports to improve its working capital cycle. Given its large integrated scale of operations, we remain positive on growth in exports. However, its stressed working capital and delay in cash collections from the sale of non-core assets may lead to liquidity constraints and delay the debt reduction plans. Working capital cycle and high debt remain monitorables for us. For now, we maintain our fundamental grade of 2/5. Export drives top line growth Revenues grew by 12.5% y-o-y to 37.4 bn driven by home textile (up by 52% to 5.21 bn) and fabrics (up by 8.7% to21.2 bn). Polyester business was flat y-o-y at 8.9 bn. Domestic business revenues increased 6.7% y-o-y to 26.5 bn (71% of total revenues). Exports grew by 30% y-o-y due to home textiles, garments, terry towel and polyester segment revenues. EBITDA margin declined by 448 bps y-o-y to 23.1% due to higher raw material cost. Raw material cost as a % of revenues grew 527 bps y-o-y to 60.1% due to increase in prices of raw material - cotton, PTA and MEG. Other expenses increased 9% y-o-y to 5.5 bn. Adj PAT margin contracted by 211 bps y-o-y to 4.6% due to lower operating profitability and higher finance cost. Debt and working capital at alarming levels: key concern Aloks gross debt, receivable days and inventory days have increased significantly in FY13 from FY12 levels. Receivables days increased from 78 days in FY12 to 130 days (last quarter 182 days) in FY13. Inventory days went up to 224 days from 204 days during the same period. Consequently, working capital days increased from 218 days to 278 days. As a result, the companys gross debt increased to 1,978 bn with debt-equity ratio of 5.1x in FY13. Earnings estimates revised downwards Revenue estimates have been increased by 3% for FY14 and by 2% for FY15. EBITDA margin estimates have been increased to 24.8% and 25.2%, respectively, to factor in benefits from savings in power cost and reduction in losses in its retail chain business. We have also built in the benefits of savings in power cost for the explicit period and expect improvement in working capital cycle with company focussing more on exports where debtor days are lower. However, we remove the benefit of land bank monetisation; Alok has not been able to monetise as the macro environment remained challenging. We factor in higher interest and depreciation as actual capex in FY13 has been much higher than our expectation. Overall, PAT estimates has been lowered to 3,415 mn for FY14 and 7,723 mn for FY15 on account of higher finance cost and depreciation. Fair value revised We continue to use the DCF method to value Alok. We revise our fair value to 9 from 8 per share. At current market price of 8 per share, our valuation grade is 3/5.

CRISIL IERIndependentEquityResearch 4 Key Developments Delay in monetisation of non-core assets to affect liquidity and gearing levels Alok has sold 18 floors (out of the 20 floors) of its real estate venture Peninsula Business Park (PSB); of the eight floors of Ashford Centre, three floors have been sold and four have been leased out. The estimated deal size of these two projects is 9.6 bn (PSB: 9 bn and Ashford: 600 mn). The company has received only 6.9 bn of the total payment. Alok has used the proceeds from PSB to repay debt of 7.5 bn in the books of its subsidiary, Alok Realtors Pvt. Ltd, and the remaining 1.5 bn to repay the debt of the parent company. Any further delay in receiving the payment will lead to higher leverage and interest cost. Also, a monetisation plan of its land in Silvassa and Vapi has not been successful due to a weak macro environment. Hence we have not factored the same in our projections.
Alok has decided to limit its capital expenditure up to 6,000 mn per year for the next few years, beginning FY14; we have factored in the same in our projections until FY20.
