    Edelweiss' research report on KEI Industries

    KEI Industries (KEI) posted a strong P/L in Q1FY18 led by strong performance in turnkey projects and above industry growth in cables. Key highlights: a) strong execution in turnkey projects (up 119% YoY) led to sharp 44/46% YoY top line/EBITDA spurt; b) sharp rise in copper price coupled with price hike aided 29% YoY surge in cables’ top line/EBIT; and c) KEI’s sustained focus on B2C business which now has 1,246 dealers (99 added in Q1) apart from target to prune long-term debt substantially.

    Outlook

    High potential of profitable growth in cables & wires and scope for significant ramp up in distribution renders KEI our preferred pick in the India consumer electrical space. We maintain ‘BUY/SO’.
