Q4FY2015 earnings preview
Another quarter of weak performance but outlook remains encouraging
Q4FY2015 result expectations
The Q4FY2015 performance of the Sensex companies
would reflect the impact of several unfavourable factors
like (1) cross-currency movement (appreciation of the
dollar and the rupee against the euro which adversely
affected the financials of the export-oriented companies,
ie information technology [IT] and pharmaceutical
[pharma] companies); (2) weak rural demand
(plummeting agri-commodity prices along with crop
damage due to unseasonal rains); (3) inventory losses
(mark-down of inventory to fully reflect the plunge in
the prices of crude oil and other inputs); and
(4) moderation in government spending in a bid to adhere
to the fiscal deficit target for FY2015.
largely in line with the long-term average price/earnings
(P/E) multiple of 15x FY2017 consensus earnings estimate.
Though there is scope for some estimate downgrades in
the forthcoming result season, the valuations are still in
a comfortable zone. We re-iterate our prognosis that given
the weakness in the corporate results, mounting pressure
from the opposition parties, unseasonal rains that
damaged the rabi crop and global uncertainties, the
benchmark indices would slip into a consolidation phase
with sideways movement in a range for some time before
the earnings growth trajectory revives again.
Sensex’ one-year forward P/E band
Consequently, the aggregate revenues of the Sensex
companies are estimated to decline by 4.7% whereas their
aggregate net profit is likely to remain flat or show a
marginal decline in Q4FY2015. The key drag on the
earnings would come from the metal, capital goods and
some of the energy companies.
Outlook
Weakness more of an aberration; earnings revival
ahead: In spite of the weak quarterly results for the second
consecutive quarter, the consensus is building on a 1617% compounded annual growth in the earnings of the
Sensex over the next two years. That’s because some of
the negative factors are temporary and the macro scenario
favours a revival in economic growth and corporate
earnings in terms of higher government spending on
infrastructure, a low energy cost, easing interest rates
and an improving policy environment.

Auto
Barring a few bright spots, a relatively weak quarter for the sector
Q4FY2015 result expectations
Mid-single digit growth for the auto universe in Q4FY2015: The automobile companies (ex Tata Motors) are expected to report a modest
4.9% growth in revenues for Q4FY2015. The growth is on the lower side primarily owing to a slowdown in the two-wheeler and tractor
segments. Given a fall in their volumes, original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) such as Bajaj Auto and Mahindra & Mahindra (M&M) are
expected to report a decline in revenue. Ashok Leyland Ltd (ALL) is expected to outperform the industry with a growth of 52%. Riding on
the continued popularity of Royal Enfield, Eicher Motors too is expected to post an impressive growth of 29.3%. In the ancillary space, aided
by a strong growth in exports Bharat Forge’s revenues are expected to grow by 32.8%. Tyre manufacturers are expected to post a marginal
decline in revenues due to a drop in the realisations.
Margins improve YoY due to stable raw material prices and favourable currency: On a Y-o-Y basis, the margins of the OEMs (ex
Tata Motors) are expected to expand by 50 basis points (BPS). ALL, deriving the benefit of operating leverage and price hikes
undertaken, is expected to report the highest expansion in the operating profit margin (OPM). The depreciation of the yen against
the dollar is expected to boost the margins of Maruti Suzuki. The tyre manufacturers, aided by a sharp fall in the prices of the key
raw materials, are expected to report a 200-BPS Y-o-Y margin expansion. Automobile companies (ex Tata Motors) are expected to
report a 3.3% growth in the net profit for Q4FY2015.
Outlook
The weak monsoon rainfall last year, damage to the rabi crop due to unseasonal rains in this year and a lack of growth in the farm income
has weighed heavily on rural demand especially for motorcycles and tractors. Meanwhile, the urban demand-led scooter segment
continues to outperform and its contribution is bound to increase going forward. A regular monsoon rainfall will re-kindle the rural
demand. While the passenger vehicle (PV) segment has grown by 10% in FY2015, the growth has been driven by a discount push and excise
duty cut. The lower fuel prices coupled with expectation of interest rate cuts should spur demand in FY2016. Meanwhile, the CV segment
is expected to continue to grow in double digits, albeit at a slower pace.
Valuation
The auto stocks have been re-rated significantly in the last one year and most of them are trading at a premium to the average
valuation multiple. Thus, it is essential to be selective now. From an investment perspective, we continue to prefer Maruti Suzuki
in the four-wheeler space and Hero MotoCorp in the two-wheeler space. In the CV segment we like ALL and in the ancillary space
we like Apollo Tyres and Gabriel India.
Preferred picks this earnings season: ALL, Maruti Suzuki, Eicher Motors and JK Tyres

Slower credit growth and higher provisioning to affect earnings growth
Q4FY2015 result expectations
Earnings growth of PSBs to be subdued: We expect the aggregate earnings of the banks under our coverage to grow by
about 11% year on year (YoY) in Q4FY2015. However, despite the benefit of treasury gains and the utilisation of floating
provisions the public sector banks (PSBs) are expected to report a marginal growth (of about 6% YoY) in their earnings due to
a higher provisioning for the non-performing assets (NPAs), employee expenses and a slow core income growth.
Asset quality remains key monitorable: Stress on asset quality will persist in Q4FY2015 as well, largely due to higher
additions to the restructured book since this was the last quarter of regulatory forbearance on restructured loans. Overall,
fresh NPA additions may remain elevated (ie remain near Q3FY2015 levels) partly because of rising NPA additions from the
restructured portfolio which would keep the provisioning high.
Outlook
While the concerns persist in the near term (a slow credit growth, stress on asset quality and weak capital position) we
believe a pick-up in the economy, easing of the interest rates by the Reserve Bank of India and some structural reforms in the
financial sector could ease the challenges in the medium term.
Valuation
The PSBs trade at a discount of about 30% to the 12-month forward book value because of the concerns in the near term
(weak asset quality, low capital ratio, etc). A revival in the economy will improve their valuations though. The private banks
will continue to trade at premium valuations due to their superior performance and better operating metrics compared with
the PSBs.
Preferred picks this earnings season: Axis Bank, HDFC Bank and Yes Bank (private banks); State Bank of India and
Bank of Baroda (PSBs); LIC Housing Finance and PTC India Financial Services (non-banking finance companies [NBFCs])

Q4FY2015 earnings preview
Consumer goods & services
Sustained volume growth and margin expansion to drive earnings
Q4FY2015 result expectations
Double-digit revenue growth in Q4 also: In spite of signs of weakness in rural demand, most of the fast moving consumer
goods (FMCG) companies under our coverage (barring Marico, which is likely to report a growth of over 20%) are expected to
announce a revenue growth of 10-14% for Q4FY2015. The revenue growth would be led by a growth in volumes during the
quarter. On the other hand, the leisure & travel majors like Thomas Cook India and Cox & Kings are expected to report a
relatively higher revenue growth of 37% and 18% respectively for the same quarter.
Low input prices to keep GPM high: The third quarter of FY2015 had marked the beginning of an improvement in the gross profit
margin (GPM) of the FMCG companies due to a decline in the raw material prices. However, the larger benefits of lower raw
material prices were expected to flow in from Q4FY2015. For Q4FY2015 the GPM of the FMCG companies is expected to show an
improvement of 100-300 BPS (barring Marico, which will see a marginal improvement only). However, we expect the FMCG players
to deploy some of the savings from the reduced raw material cost for advertisement and promotional activities, thereby limiting
the margin expansion to 75-150BPS at the operating level. Given the improving profitability, the earnings growth of most of the
FMCG companies is likely to be higher than the revenue growth.
Outlook
Soft input prices and improving demand to support earnings growth: Unseasonal rains in February and March damaged the
ready-to-reap Rabi crop this year. This will dampen the rural sentiment and affect the sales of certain FMCG products in the rural
markets. On the other hand, moderation in inflationary pressures, savings from reduced fuel prices and improving income levels
(especially after an upward revision of the pay of government employees in keeping with the recommendations of the Seventh Pay
Commission) are likely to sustain the revival in urban consumption.
Valuation
Premium valuations make us selective: We maintain our selective stance on the FMCG sector due to the premium valuations
of some companies and retain Marico as our top FMCG pick due to a better visibility of its future earnings compared with the
rest. The recent correction in the stock price of Jyothy Laboratories has made it one of our preferred picks in the mid-cap
FMCG space. In the discretionary services segment, we continue to like Cox & Kings and Thomas Cook India because their
growth prospects are better from the medium- to long-term perspective.
Preferred picks this earnings season: Marico, Jyothy Laboratories, Cox & Kings and Thomas Cook India

*Thomas Cook India’s FY2015 estimates are for 15 months due to a change in the accounting year from December 2014 to March 2015
Capital goods & engineering
Delay in investment cycle revival; be selective
Q4FY2015 result expectations
Double-digit growth driven by smaller companies: Excluding Bharat Heavy Electricals Ltd (BHEL), the financial performance
of the capital goods and engineering companies under our coverage is encouraging with the aggregate revenues and earnings
of our capital goods and engineering universe estimated to grow by 20% and 16% respectively in Q4FY2015. Incidentally, the
mid-caps like Finolex Cables Ltd (FCL), Kalpataru Power Transmission Ltd (KPTL), V-Guard Industries (V-Guard) and Skipper
are likely to witness a sound growth. On the other hand, the bellwethers like BHEL, Crompton Greaves Ltd (CGL) and
Thermax continue to suffer from the weakness in the investment cycle.
Margins under pressure only for large players under coverage: Even on the margin front, the large power equipment
companies are facing pressure due to negative operating leverage (lower execution and higher fixed cost leading to lower
profitability) especially in BHEL. On the other hand, smaller companies like Skipper, Triveni Turbines Ltd (TTL) and KPTL are
expected to witness an improvement in the margins as compared with Q4FY2014.
Outlook
Order inflow picks up but demand environment still challenging: Though some of the large companies like BHEL and
Larsen & Toubro (L&T) received some large orders from the power generation segment, the demand outlook remains challenging.
On the positive side, the order flow in the power transmission sector has been quite healthy domestically. Internationally,
the weakness in Europe and the rising volatility in the currency movements are putting pressure on the order flow from the
overseas markets.
Valuation
Valuations factor in expected revival; be selective: Industrial companies had witnessed a sharp re-rating after the majority
mandate given to the Narendra Modi-led government on hopes of an early revival in the investment cycle. Though the new
government has taken steps to remove bottlenecks and improve the policy environment, the delay in the revival of the
investment cycle is likely to limit the upside for some of the large companies in the near term. Thus, it is advisable to be
selective.

Players with exposure to south and west to outperform their peers in Q4
Q4FY2015 result expectations
Revenue growth to be driven by rising capacity: We expect the revenues of the cement companies under our coverage
(both active and soft) to increase by 13% largely supported by a growth in volumes (due to capacity expansion) and price
hikes (in the western and southern regions). Consequently, we expect the companies from the west and the south to show an
improvement in the OPM for the quarter.
Southern players to benefit from strong pricing discipline: As compared with the other markets, the southern market has
shown strong pricing power which is expected to boost the earnings for the southern players. Hence, we expect a strong
earnings growth in The Ramco Cements, Mangalam Cement and JK Lakshmi Cement.
Outlook
Our channel-check suggests strong but volatile realisations in all regions except selected pockets in the west and the north. Going
ahead, the key monitorables are a revival of demand across the country and sustainability of the cement price at the current level.
We expect the demand revival to be driven by the infrastructure-led sectors as the economic environment of the country improves.
Valuation
Most of the players in the cement space have recently corrected from their near-term peak levels which provides selective
opportunities to enter the sector now. We believe there is still scope for further appreciation for UltraTech Cement in the
large-cap space and for The Ramco Cements in the mid-cap space considering their peak up-cycle valuations.
Preferred picks this earnings season: UltraTech Cement, The Ramco Cements and Mangalam Cement

IT
A soft quarter led by cross-currency headwind
Q4FY2015 result expectations
Unfavourable cross-currency movements to dampen growth: The recent appreciation of the dollar by 10.4%, 4.1% and 8.3%
against the euro, the pound and the Australian Dollar respectively would negatively affect the revenue growth of the top four
IT companies by 200-250BPS in Q4FY2015. On a constant-currency basis, the sequential growth is expected to be in the range
of 2.3-4.0% in Q4FY2015 with HCL Technologies leading among the front-line companies. Owing to unfavourable cross-currency
movements, the OPM of the top four IT companies is likely to decline by 27-57BPS sequentially.
Key issues to watch out for would be: (1) management commentary on IT budget for CY2015 and the overall demand
environment; (2) outlook for energy & utilities and manufacturing verticals owing to a steep fall in crude oil prices; (3) the
commentary on the deal flow and the trends in the digital space; (4) wage hikes for FY2016 (which could be higher than the last
year’s average); (5) hedging policy, given the volatile cross-currency movements; and (6) Infosys is expected to deploy cash to
the tune of $5 billion in carrying out acquisitions and buy-backs, as indicated by Dr Vishal Sikka, who is expected to unveil the
company’s cash deployment strategy in April 2015 (which will serve as a re-rating trigger for Infosys in the near term).
Outlook
The demand environment is strong with improving discretionary IT spending in the USA and evolving opportunities in digital
technologies. Thus, we believe that the adverse impact of a possible downgrade in the earnings estimates due to crosscurrency movements is already getting reflected in the valuations. Consequently, we remain constructive on the IT sector
for an investment horizon of 12 months.
Valuation
In the last one month the CNX IT Index has corrected by close to 5% owing to the fear of growth tapering off in FY2016 and
negative impact of unfavourable cross-currency movements. However, we remain positive on the sector and recent
underperformance offer opportunty to buy for a decent return in next 12 months.
Preferred picks this earnings season: Infosys, Tata Consultancy Services, HCL Technologies, Tech Mahindra (unrated)
and Persistent Systems (in the mid-cap space).

Oil & Gas
A favourable equation in Q4; nil subsidy burden and strong GRM
Q4FY2015 result expectations
Weak crude but nil subsidy benefits: Global crude oil prices remained weak in Q4FY2015 (the same corrected by 29%
sequentially to $54 per barrel) on global supply worries. In the meanwhile, the dollar remained resilient against the rupee at
around Rs62.1. This is expected to pressurise the quarter’s gross realisation of the upstream companies. However, their subsidy
burden is expected to be nil in this quarter. This would be positive for both the oil marketing companies (OMCs) and upstream
companies. Nevertheless, the OMCs may report a marginal inventory loss but a better marketing margin. We have built in a net
realisation of around $54 per barrel in our quarterly estimate for the upstream companies. In the absence of under-recoveries,
the earnings of Oil India are expected to improve substantially (up by 39% YoY and 58% QoQ).
Strong GRM but weak petchem margin: On the positive side, in Q4FY2015 the Singapore gross refining margin (GRM) moved
up by around 37% YoY and 38% QoQ to $8.5 per barrel as spreads in light and heavy distillates strengthened over the previous
quarter. We have built in a premium of around $1 over the Singapore benchmark GRM for estimating the GRM of RIL at $9.5 per
barrel in this quarter. This would improve the profitability of RIL’s refining business sequentially. However, we expect the
petrochemical margins to be soft for the current quarter which could affect GAIL’s earnings too. The earnings of RIL are
expected to be up by 12% QoQ in Q4FY2015.
Outlook
Reforms to drive value: We believe reforms are going to drive value in the oil & gas space. The deregulation of diesel has
played a major role in significantly reducing the subsidy burden of the OMCs and upstream companies which was one of the
major drags for the sector. However, the Street seeks clarity from the government over the fixing of the subsidy sharing
formula for future which could improve the visibility, though a regular revision of gas prices has helped to some extent. The
global crude oil prices seem to be forming a new normal around $50 per barrel currently which is pressurising the realisation
of the upstream companies but benefitting the downstream companies.
Valuation
Concerns factored in, remain positive on a few: We remain positive on Oil India, which could be one of the key beneficiaries
of the recent reforms. RIL is going to benefit from its ongoing capital expenditure plan in the petrochemical and refining
businesses. The valuations of RIL and OIL remain attractive.
Preferred stocks: RIL and Oil India

Higher base effect and weaker exports to moderate growth considerably in Q4
Q4FY2015 result expectations
Growth to moderate in Q4: Most of the pharma players in our universe are expected to show a moderate performance for
Q4FY2015, mainly due to a high base effect (the exclusivity on Cymbalta to five leading players had formed a high base in
Q4FY2014), adverse cross-currency movement, fewer product approvals for the regulated markets, and political instability in
the Middle-East and the Commonwealth of Independent States region.
Flattish growth at PAT level: On an aggregate basis, the net sales of our pharma universe are expected to show a 16% growth
(versus a 28% growth in Q4FY2014) on the back of a 21% growth in the Indian formulation business and an 11% growth in the
export of formulations. The OPM is likely to contract by 140BPS YoY while the net profit of the universe is likely to remain flat
YoY for Q4FY2015. The profit growth for the quarter will be led by Cadila Healthcare, Cipla, Divi’s Laboratories and JB
Chemicals while Glenmark Pharma, Ipca Laboratories and Torrent Pharma will see a decline in the profit.
Outlook
Issues in near term but a healthy growth outlook for long term: The past few quarters have seen a fewer number of product
approvals in the USA, as the US Food and Drug Administration (USFDA) has been busy overhauling the drug review process.
Meanwhile, the abbreviated new drug application (ANDA) filings by the generic players kept piling up and currently, on an average,
nearly 40% of ANDAs filed remains to be approved by the USFDA. This has moderated the growth in the US market (the US market
is the largest contributor to the revenues of our universe) for most of the players. However, we expect a large chunk of the pending
ANDAs to unfold in the next few quarters and that will help revive the growth rates. Also, the growth is likely to be driven by the
domestic market, which is witnessing a robust volume growth, and the introduction of new drugs. Therefore, while we are positive
on the long-term prospects of the sector, a few of the front-line players may see headwinds in the short term.
Valuation
Relying on the long-term prospects, most of the pharma companies have been successively re-rated over the past few
quarters and that has led most of the front-line players to trade at a significant premium to their respective historical
average multiples. On an aggregate basis, our pharma universe is trading at 28.5x FY2016E earnings (versus 16x Sensex
earnings) as compared with its historical average of 14-20x (on one-year forward earnings basis). However, we expect the
premium to sustain due to an improving product profile and increasing reach of the Indian pharma companies. We advise
staying selective in this space.
Preferred picks this earnings season: Cadila Healthcare, Cipla and Divi’s Laboratories

Prevailing uncertainties reflected in the valuation
Q4FY2015 result expectations
Weak performance on slower demand outlook: We expect companies under our coverage in power sector to report a weak set
of numbers for Q4FY2015. Due to lower offtake from some of the large power buying states, the power trading volume is
expected to be weak. Consequently, the earning of PTC India are likely to remain under pressure in this quarter. CESC is also
expected to report weak numbers on an adjusted basis; given the lower volume (down 9% YoY and 16% QoQ). However, the
reported numbers of CESC are not truly comparable as we expect the annual tariff adjustment (a tariff revision was approved
by the regulator recently) to be included in the Q4 numbers.
Regulated large companies to be stable, but weak demand to influence numbers: The regulated large-cap utility companies
like NTPC and Power Grid Corporation of India Ltd (PGCIL) are likely to deliver a mixed set of numbers. NTPC is expected to
report a moderate set of numbers with a marginally lower volume offtake. Though the revenues of PGCIL are expected to be up
by 11% on higher capitalisation, its net profit is expected to be moderately higher by 6% YoY in Q4FY2015.
Outlook
Reforms led clarity emerging gradually, though several patches are still in dark: The new government is taking the right
measures structurally to clear the critical hurdles for the sector like coal block e-auction, ensuring coal supply to operational
plants and thrust on renewable energy. However, the coal auction has thrown new challenges for the aggressive bidders (who
are unable to pass on part of the cost hike into their tariff). On the other hand, though Coal India has raised its production
target substantially for the next three to four years, no convincing plan is visible yet.

Valuation
Valuation factors in concerns; remain positive on a few: We believe most of the power companies are currently factoring
in the prevailing uncertainties in their valuations. However, we believe some of the companies are passing through a rough
patch and offer value. We like CESC due to expectations of a meaningful improvement in its subsidiaries in future;
commencement of the Haldia plant and improvement in the First Source and Spencer’s businesses. Though PTC India is
passing through a temporary phase of weak demand, it is available at an attractive valuation, considering the substantial
embedded value of its investments.
