Lakshmi Machine Works (LMW) posted top-line growth of 9.6% yoy to `538cr (`491cr) during 3QFY2012. However, OPM fell by 263bp yoy to 12.8%, lower than our estimates, mainly due to higher raw-material cost and other expenditure. PAT declined by 13.5% yoy to `40cr. We maintain our Buy rating on the stock. Mediocre top-line growth with order book at `4,500cr: LMW registered mediocre top-line growth of 9.6% yoy to `538cr. The textile machinery division posted sales growth of 11.0% yoy to `471cr (`425cr). The others division also reported growth during the quarter, up 3.1% to `72cr. OPM contracted by 263bp to 12.8% due to higher raw-material cost. PAT came in at `40cr, down 13.5% yoy. PAT margin contracted by only 197bp yoy. The company recorded a decline in its high order inflow during the quarter, reflecting the current weak demand scenario from textile machinery manufacturers. The companys order backlog now stands at `4,500cr, while total order inflow during 3QFY2012 stands at ~`150cr. Outlook and valuation: We remain positive on LMWs outlook, given a strong order book of `4,500cr. Although yarn prices have shown signs of correction in the recent past, overall demand, as reflected in the order inflow, is still robust. We have revised our estimates downwards, taking into consideration the weak sentiments in the textile industry. At the CMP, the stock is trading at 11.4x and 8.6x its FY2012E and FY2013E EPS, respectively, which we believe is attractive. We continue to maintain our Buy rating on the stock with a revised target price of `2,214 (`2,780 earlier).

Sales growth momentum remains strong

LMW has consistently posted strong sales growth over the past eight quarters, after emerging from the lows of the global economic crisis. This trend was maintained in 3QFY2012 as well, with the company posting 9.6% yoy growth in its sales. Going ahead, we expect sales to remain high, although the rate of growth is expected to remain at current level.

OPM declines yoy

LMW reported a dip in its OPM during 3QFY2012 to 12.8%, as compared to 15.4% in 3QFY2011. During the quarter, the company witnessed margin pressure despite hiking its product prices in June, as the rise in commodities prices was more than the price hike taken by the company. We do not expect any further price hikes by the company and expect margins to remain similar to 3QFY2012 levels going ahead.

Investment arguments
Ability to defend market share: LMW is one of the largest players in the world and one of the only three players globally that manufactures the entire range of spinning machinery. In India, the company has a high market share of around 70% in yarn spinning and preparatory machines. The company has been able to sustain this market share on the back of strong after-sales service coupled with providing the worlds best technology to customers at the cheapest rates. LMW has service centers at all textile hubs across the country, which gives it a strong advantage over its European peers, who at the most have service centers in only 34 cities. LMW also enjoys an edge over competition as it caters to 1,300 domestic textile players, out of the total universe of around 1,600. The company has been innovating on technology for the past 15 years. In terms of prices, LMWs products are at least 10% cheaper than its European peers, who have a manufacturing base in India. Strong order book to translate into robust sales growth: LMW has a strong order book of `4,500cr. The upturn in the spinning industry has lent a boost to LMWs order inflow. This indicates that there is a low probability of order deferments and the companys robust order book is expected to result in strong growth.

Outlook and valuation

We remain positive on LMWs outlook, given its strong order book of `4,500cr. The companys order inflow has remained firm, with the total order inflow for FY2011 coming in at ~`3,000cr. Although yarn prices have shown signs of correction in the recent past, overall demand, as reflected in the order inflow, is still robust. The announcement on the TUFS scheme is another positive for the textile industry, which would further benefit LMW. We have revised our estimates downwards, taking into consideration weak sentiments in the textile industry. At the CMP, the stock is trading at 11.4x and 8.6x its FY2012E and FY2013E EPS, respectively, which we believe is attractive. At the end of 1HFY2012, LMW had net cash worth `642cr and investments worth `154cr. The combined value of cash and investment works out to `707/share. We continue to maintain our Buy recommendation on the stock with a revised target price of `2,214 (`2,780 earlier).
