Buy Anupam Rasayan Ltd For Target Rs.666 - Centrum Broking
Next growth avenue – Fluorination products
Anupam Rasayan (Anupam) reported better than estimated operating performance with consolidated Rev./ EBITDA beating our estimates by 3%/ 1% while PAT missed by 7%. The company reported Q3 cons. revenues of Rs3.8bn (Rs2.7bn), EBITDA of Rs1,019mn (Rs751mn), and PAT of Rs429mn (Rs379mn). However, YoY numbers are not comparable due to Tanfac consolidation from Q2FY23. Q3 Standalone numbers remained muted YoY with Rev./ EBITDA/ PAT growth of 8%/6%/2% owing to the impact from closure of Sachin plant due to accident. Anupam’s incremental foray into fluorination products is expected to drive growth apart from scale up of LOIs entered in FY22. Based on 9M numbers and management guidance, we have lowered our FY23E/ FY24E/ FY25E consolidated earnings estimates by 5%/8%/9%. Since our initiation in November, the stock has corrected by ~20%. Based on our revised estimates, keeping valuations constant, we upgrade the stock from Reduce to Add with a revised TP of Rs666 (earlier Rs725)
Sachin plant closure impacted Q3 performance, restart benefit from Q4
Due to closure of Sachin facility owing to an accident, Anupam’s Q3 revenues were impacted to the tune of ~Rs450mn. Anupam received regulatory approval to commence one plant from early January and expects to receive approval for second plant soon. Plant restart shall start reflecting from Q4
Robust product launch pipeline, 90+ molecules in R&D and pilot
Anupam plans to commercialise a total of 7 products in FY23E of which 4 have been commercialised in 9M. Additionally, it plans to commercialise 5 molecules in fluorination during Q4FY23E which shall be scaled up over the next couple of years. During 9M, the company garnered ~Rs800mn from LOIs signed in FY22 which shall attain full revenue potential of ~Rs4.3bn+ in FY25E.
Improving WC, capex momentum to continue
With a focused WC management, Anupam generated Rs1.6bn CFO during 9M and expects to reduce its inventory days to 230?240 by end?FY23E with further reduction going ahead. Capex outlook remains strong with FY23?25E standalone capex of ~Rs7.2bn (including fluorination capex) which shall be funded through internal accruals.
Fluorination products offer future growth potential
Anupam is commercializing fluorination products from Q4 with a potential market opportunity of over USD200mn+. With ongoing capexes, these products will be scaled up offering growth for the company. Key RM supply security from Tanfac has placed Anupam in a sweet spot thus reinforcing its growth journey. Based on 9M numbers, we have estimated consolidated financials vs. standalone earlier. Also, based on management guidance, we have lowered our consolidated FY23?25E earnings estimates by 5?9%, keeping standalone EBITDA margins at ~28%. We have valued Anupam with SOTP methodology and upgraded the rating to Add with a TP of Rs666 (earlier Rs725).
Risks – Delay in scale up of new products, high WC
