Emkay Global Financial Services is bullish on Elecon Engineering Company and has recommended buy rating on the stock with a target of Rs 101 in its August 4, 2011 research report. "Elecon Engineering (EEL) Q1FY12 performance was in line with estimates at the operational level. Revenue growth for the quarter was muted at 4% yoy to Rs2.6 bn, attributed to 5% yoy decline in MHE division - below estimates. However, 240 bps yoy to 17.5% expansion in operating margins offset muted revenue growth, above estimates. Expansion in operating margins was attributed to favourable revenue mix. Consequently, operating profit growth at 21% yoy to Rs450 mn was in line with estimates. Led by margin expansion, adjusted net profit growth was healthy at 12% yoy to Rs149 mn - in line with estimates." "Material Handling Equipment (MHE) division continued to witness slow ramp-up in order book execution. Despite healthy opening order backlog, revenues declined 5% yoy to Rs11.8 bn - versus our estimates of 18% yoy growth. However, EBIT margins expanded by 80 bps yoy to 13.6%, ahead estimates - attributed to higher revenue contribution from high margin Products. Transmission Equipment (TE) division continued to witness sustained momentum. Key headline numbers are (1) Revenues grew by 20% yoy to Rs1.2 bn (2) EBIT margins remained stable at 15.2%, in line with estimates." "EEL has reported sustained momentum in earnings growth - consistently meeting expectations in difficult business conditions. We expect EEL to witness earnings growth at 19% CAGR during FY11-13E period - amongst high growth companies in EMKAY Capital Goods universe. Management has shelved plans to undergo corporate restructuring - addressing key investor overhang. However, given the high DER of 1.3X, equity dilution risk continues to exist. Given the consistent performance, we roll over our price target to FY13E earnings and revise our price target to Rs101 (@10X PER) and reiterate our BUY rating," says Emkay Global Financial Services research report.
