Khambatta Securities' research report on Varroc Engineering

Varroc’s business performance remained under stress in 3Q FY22 as the semiconductor shortage continued to affect production at OEMs, impacting VLS sales negatively (-15% y-o-y in euro terms). Although 2W production volumes in India was weak during the quarter, revenues at the India business grew marginally (+2% y-o-y). Consolidated revenues saw a modest sequential improvement, driven by a 10.7% increase in VLS’s euro sales. EBITDA (excluding FX loss/gain on intercompany loans) was down on a y-o-y basis, although it was up sequentially as the company reported material EBITDA in 3Q FY22, compared to a negligible amount in the quarter before. The margin pressure is attributable to sub-optimal capacity utilisation at older VLS plants, input cost pressures, and supply chain disruptions. The net loss was up on a y-o-y basis while, sequentially, the loss was lower.

Outlook

Based on a target P/E multiple of 18.0x FY 24E EPS, we value Varroc at Rs 425, downgrading it to HOLD with an upside of 13% from current levels.
