We believe the decorative segment recorded muted growth (2% YoY) during Q3FY15 while a revival in automotive paints segment demand helped in achieving Industrial paint volume growth of ~11% YoY • Operating margins increased 162 bps YoY to ~12% mainly due to a 243 bps YoY dip in raw material cost on account of benign raw material prices. Earnings growth of 34% was due to higher EBITDA and an increase in other income • We have modelled volume growth of 12.8% YoY and 13.8% YoY for FY16E and FY17E, respectively, on the back of a revival in the industrial paint segment. For FY17E, we build industrial and decorative paint segment growth of 16% and 12% YoY, respectively Increasing focus on decorative paints KNL is India’s largest industrial paint company with ~35% market share in industrial paints and third largest player with overall 14% market share. With sustainable growth in decorative paints and subdued industrial demand, KNL has increased its revenue contribution in decorative paints from 50% in FY09 to 55% currently. It has strong brands in interior, exterior and metal paints like Impressions, Excel, Surkasha, Satin Enamel, Lotus Touch, Beauty, Pearl and Little Master. KNL continues to invest in brands with 4-5% of sales going into advertisement and promotion. We believe decorative paints would continue to grow strongly with the presence of limited players and strong repainting demand. We expect a revival in industrial paints demand (75% automotive paints), led by a recovery in the automotive segment. We expect blended volume growth of 12.8% and 13.8% YoY in FY16E and FY17E, respectively. Leader in industrial paints KNL is a leading industrial paints player with ~35% market share. The company supplies paints to many automobile players. They account for 30-35% of its sales with Maruti Suzuki being its largest client. Automobile demand has been subdued in the last two years as Maruti has seen ~1% volume CAGR in FY12-14. However, we believe a revival in industrial paints would lead to a recovery for KNL in industrial paints. Going forward, we believe there should be a resumption in industrial paints growth as automobile growth is likely to be ~15% YoY in FY16E and ~16% in FY17E. We expect revenue, earnings to grow at a CAGR of 18%, 32% respectively, during FY14-17E. Beneficiary of strong revival in industrial paint demand: reiterate BUY Despite KNL consciously increasing its decorative paints contribution to 55% of sales from 50%, we believe the stock is still trading at a discount to Asian Paints. With improving margins, higher free cash flows and expanding return ratios, we believe the discount to Asian Paints would shrink and it would command a premium to its historic average of 22x. Further, with an improvement in automotive paint demand supported by higher demand for autos due to lower base effect, we expect industrial and decorative volume growth of 16% and 12% YoY, respectively, in FY17E. Simultaneously, higher operating leverage coupled with stable raw material prices are expected to lead to an expansion in operating margins by 200 bps by FY17E over FY15. At the CMP, the stock is trading at 34x its FY16E & 27x its FY17E earnings. We reiterate our BUY rating on the stock with a revised target price of | 2671 (30x FY17E earnings).

We expect the volume growth of the decorative segment to have been close to its peer of ~2% YoY, due to muted demand during Q3 Sharp growth in other income on the back of gains from investments Benign raw material prices led 244 bps YoY decline in raw material prices We expect 65 bps YoY increase in other expenses to hav been largely driven by higher advertisement and promotion expenses In spite of slower volume growth, saving in raw material cost helped increase margins by 162 bps YoY Higher depreciation charges due to expansion in Hosur, Tamil Nadu Sharp growth in PAT is attributable to expansion in EBITDA margin Key Metrics Volume Growth (%) 6.0 12.0 3.0 14.0 Realisation Growth (%) 2.0 3.0 4.5 3.0 With ~45% of sales contributed by the industrial segment, a revival in demand from the automotive segment (up ~11% YoY) helped in achieving 6% YoY growth during Q3FY15.

For FY17E, we build in industrial and decorative paint segment growth of 16% and 12% YoY, respectively. The assumption in the 15.5 industrial paint segment is based on Maruti's overall volume growth while decorative paint volume growth estimates are based on growth of the leader in the decorative paints segment, Asian Paints We believe the company would take a price hike of ~4% in FY17E to offset rising input cost 4.0 Source: Company, ICICIdirect.com Research ICICI Securities Ltd | Retail Equity Research Page 2 Company Analysis Increasing focus on decorative paints Kansai Nerolac is the largest industrial paint company in India with more than 35% market share in industrial paints and third largest player with an overall market share of 14%.

We believe decorative paints would continue to grow at a faster pace with the presence of limited players and strong repainting demand. We expect a revival in industrial paints demand (which contains 75% automotive paints), led by a recovery in the automotive segments. We expect blended volume growth of 14.5% and 15.5% YoY in FY16E and FY17E, respectively. With the sustainable growth in decorative paints and subdued industrial demand, the company has increased its revenue contribution of decorative paints from 50% in FY09 to 55% currently.

With the substantial increase in urban income from 2004 to 2011 and rural income in 2007-12, decorative paints demand has witnessed double digit growth over the last four or five years. With more than 65% of decorative paints demand contributed by repainting demand, reduction in duration of repainting activity from eight or nine years to four or five years has also been the reason for strong decorative paints demand. Simultaneously, premiumisation, specifically from distemper to external emulsion, is the new trend. This has led the higher realisations for decorative paints. As the phenomenon continues, this would also help the industry to command higher margins, going forward. We expect operating margins of the company to improve from 13.2% in FY15E to 15.2% in FY17E.

Kansai is supplying to many automobile players with Maruti Suzuki the biggest client and accounts for ~30-35% of its sales.

However, with titanium di-oxide price and currency stabilising, we expect a revival in automotive demand and improvement in operating margins from 11.5% in FY14 to 14.1% in FY17E. Given the strong balance sheet, zero debt on the books, higher operating margins and sustainable free cash flows, we expect return ratios to improve (RoCE at 27.9% and RoE at 20% in FY16E) from the current RoCE of 20.1% and RoE of 14.5%.
