Strong 3Q19, guidance & estimates raised
Ferrari reported a solid set of results in 3Q19 showing sound YoY growth (+13% in units and +14% revenues for cars & spare parts), nice price/mix improvement (+5.1% to EUR286K), margins expansion (70bps at EBITDA level) and above all impressive cash flow generation, despite heavy investments (EUR40 million increase in R&D alone). The cash generation was probably the biggest surprise in this set of results: Net Industrial Debt reached the EUR369 million mark, in line with our estimates, but with more share buyback than expected (EUR93 million delta). Following the strong 3Q19 the company raised its guidance (now above consensus on cash generation). We reiterate our BUY rating and raise our target price by 10.0% to EUR180 on the back of a 3.8% increase in estimates and a supportive peers re-rating.
> 3Q19 in more details: Units delivered grew by a nice 9.4% YoY mostly
thanks to EMEA and Asia (ex-China) and to Portofino and 812
Superfast. Group revenues were up 9.2% YoY with Cars & Spare parts
up 16% YoY thanks also to price/mix and personalization. This had a
positive impact on EBITDA which in fact expanded by 80bps YoY,
reaching the 34% mark and up +11.9% YoY. Net Income grew 16% YoY
while FCF reached EUR138 million from EUR79 million a year ago.
> Conference call feedback. During the call management presented its
new strategy on brand diversification which will focus on three pillars
(brand extension, entertainment and car adjacencies) and implies a
reshuffle of the licensing agreements (to be cut by 50%), product
categories (-30%) and SKUs (-50%). The reference market is estimated
being worth EUR800 million and the division should contribute 10% of
overall group profits and be accretive to margins.
> Raising estimates by 3.8% on average for 2019-22. We do not see
our estimates as aggressive (4Q19 volumes seen up 1.4% YoY, after
the +13% posted in 9M19) with ARPU growing slightly ahead of 9M19
thanks to the ramp up of the Monza. The new guidance is broadly
aligned with consensus on 2019 but shows a stronger cash generation.
Our numbers are slightly above consensus on 2019 and significantly
above on 2020 (+15% in terms of Adj. EPS and 47% for Industrial FCF).
> Buy confirmed, TP raised to EUR180.0. Our positive stance is based
on: a) the unicity of the asset which materializes in unparalleled pricing
power and a long waiting list; b) the conviction we have that hybrids is a
plus both from the customer view and the company profitability; c) the
fact that we expect earnings surprises.

Recent developments
> Solid revenues growth despite “Engines” decline and China weakness.
Group revenues grew 9% YoY (+7% excluding forex) despite the -34% reported
in the Engines division, hit by Maserati slowdown in sales coupled with
destocking. Cars & Spare Parts revenues grew 15% YoY (12% excluding forex)
thanks to a 9% YoY growth in shipments, a +5.1% in ARPU (that reached the
EUR286,176 mark) and a small forex tailwind. The volume growth was not
homogeneous across regions: while Americas was flat and China marginally
declined (-2%) EMEA (+14%) and Rest of APAC (+23%) sustained the growth.
8 and 12 cylinder growth were almost equals (+9.5% and +8.9% respectively)
so no major product mix impact. 3Q19 included the very first deliveries of the
Monza SP1 and SP2 although the precise number was not disclosed.
> Profitability expanded despite a significant ramp-up in costs/investments.
EBIT margin reached the 24.8% mark, expanding by 60bps vs. 3Q18 and
despite a EUR40 million in R&D increases (attributable in our view to hybrids
development). Volumes, personalization and price/mix together with a release of
provisions were the drivers. Forex explains EUR15 million of the EUR24 million
increase in Adj. EBIT.
> 3Q19 was above our estimates and consensus. In details: a) Units delivered
stood at 2,474 better than our estimates of 2,285; b) Group revenues stood at
EUR915 million, compared with UBI @ EUR853 million and consensus @
EUR866 million; c) EBITDA Adj. stood at EUR311 million, compared with UBI
@ EUR282 million and consensus @ EUR296 million; d) EBIT Adj. stood at
EUR227 million, compared with UBI @ EUR203 million and consensus @
EUR213 million; e) Adj. Diluted EPS stood at EUR0.90 per share, compared
with UBI @ EUR0.89 per share and consensus @ EUR0.87 per share; f) Net
Industrial Debt stood at EUR303 million, compared with UBI @ EUR318 million
and consensus @ EUR432 million.

Financial Projections
> The company raised its 2019 guidance. The new FY2019 guidance points to:
a) Net Revenues >EUR3.7 billion from previous >EUR3.5 billion; b) Adj EBITDA
EUR1.27 billion from 1.2-1.25 billion; c) Adj. EBIT EUR0.92 billion from 0.85-
0.90 billion; d) Adj diluted EPS EUR3.70-3.75 from 3.50-3.70 per share; e)
Industrial free cash flow >EUR0.6 billion from >EUR0.55 billion.
> From the call: strong level of orders and a new model to be unveiled next
week. CEO had a confident tone during the call hinting at: a) strong level of
orders and a solid order book; b) no area of weaknesses by region nor by
models; c) a new model to be unveiled next Wednesday; d) impatience to be on
the waiting list also for the SF90 Stradale which is the first ever hybrid model in
the range series lineup. This is very relevant as it fortifies our view that Ferrari
customers will welcome positively products that enhance the performances (no
push back on price was mentioned during the call. We remind investors that, at
EUR430,000, the SF 90 Stradale is one of the most expensive range car ever).
> The new “Brand diversification strategy”. Management gave some hints on
how it is overhauling Ferrari non-cars revenues. It will be focused on three
pillars: a) brand extension; b) entertainment; c) car adjacencies. It will imply first
a decline in revenues due to the reshuffle of the licensing agreements (to be cut
by 50%), of the product categories (-30%) and of the SKUs in inventory (-50%).
A huge payback is expected thought, with a reference market estimated being
worth EUR800 million. The division should contribute 10% of overall group
profits and be accretive to margins. While not huge in absolute terms this could
represent a nice growth driver by the end of the current BP period 2022.
> New F1 rules: neutral for the P&, maybe some upside. During the call the
CEO commented also on the first release of the new F1 rules, which should be
applied from 2021 (when the Concordia agreement expires). The
announcement made over the week end was described as the “beginning of the
process” as lot of details have to be yet finalized. However, from the point of
view of the company financials, thanks to the “budget cap” it seems that the
impact could be anywhere between neutral to marginally positive. In other words
some reduction in spending is envisaged while revenues should maintain
current levels or even increase. Obviously the impact on the sport results are to
be seen and, in the short terms, Ferrari next year will develop both the 2020 car
and the 2021 (with an inevitable increase in development costs).
> We are raising our estimates. Yet, we do not define our projection as
aggressive (4Q19 volumes seen up 1.4% YoY, after the +13% posted in 9M19)
with ARPU growing slightly ahead of 9M19 thanks to the ramp up of the Monza.
The new guidance is broadly aligned with consensus on 2019 but shows a
stronger cash generation. Our numbers are slightly above consensus on 2019
and significantly above on 2020 (+15% in terms of Adj. EPS and 47% for
Industrial FCF).

Valuation
> Raising the target price to EUR180 (from EUR163). We are raising our target
price by 10% driven by the increase in our estimates (3.8%) and the peers re-
rating.
> We reiterate our Buy. While we acknowledge the astonishing performance the
stock had also in 2019 and the multiples (which optically seems full) we believe
that, seen on a longer terms horizon, the valuation is still appealing. We
reiterate our positive stance on the back of: a) the unicity of the asset which
materializes in unparalleled pricing power and a long waiting list; b) the
conviction we have that hybrids is a plus both from the customer view and the
company profitability; c) the fact that we expect earnings surprises.

Organizational and administrative arrangements to prevent conflicts of interests
UBI Banca maintains procedures and organizational mechanism (physical and non physical barriers designed to restrict the flow of information between the unit which performs investment research activity, and other units of UBI Banca) to prevent and professionally manage conflicts of interest in relation to investment research in accordance with art. 23 of Directive 2014/65/EU and under art. 34 (3) and art. 37 of the Regulation 2017/565/EU.

Valuation methodology
UBI Banca’s analysts value the Company subject to their recommendations using several methods among which the most prevalent are: the Discounted Cash Flow method (DCF), the Economic Value Added method (EVA), the Multiple comparison method, the SOP method and the NAV method.
The analysts use the above valuation methods alternatively and/or jointly at their discretion. The assigned target price may differ from the fair value, as it also takes into account overall market/sector conditions, corporate/market events, and corporate specifics (i.e. holding discounts) reasonably considered to be possible drivers of the company’s share price performance. These factors may also be assessed using the methodologies indicated above.
For further information please refer to www.ubibanca.com/equity-research.
Ranking system
UBI Banca’s analysts use an “absolute” rating system, not related to market performance. The explanation of the rating system is listed below:
Buy: if the target price is 15% higher than the market price, over the next 12 months.
Hold: if the target price is 15% below or 15% above the market price, over the next 12 months.
Sell: if the target price is 15% lower than the market price, over the next 12 months.
No Rating: the investment rating and target price have been suspended as there is not sufficient fundamental basis for determining an investment rating or target. The previous investment rating and target price, if any, are no longer in effect. Alternatively, No Rating is assigned in certain circumstances when UBI Banca is acting in any advisory capacity in a strategic transaction involving the Company.
Target price: the market price that the analyst believes that the share may reach within a one-year time horizon.
Market price: closing price on the day before the issue date of the report, appearing on the first page.
