Gabriel India (GABIND)

HOLD

Hopes of a smooth ride ahead…

Gabriel India (GIN) is the flagship company of the Anand Group. Apart from

being the market leader in the organised domestic automotive suspension

segment (key products include shock absorbers, struts & front forks), the

company is also among the top 10 shock absorber players globally. It has a

stated ambition of breaking into the global top five players by 2025. GIN’s

presence across major OEMs (traditional as well as new age) and market

segments (2-W, 3-W, PV, CV, off road, Railways) positions it uniquely against

peers. Its focus on driving innovation in its product offerings and thrust on

aftermarket and export segments is slated to improve wallet share and

mitigate OEM slowdown led pain on sales & margin front, going forward.

Product profile provides insulation against disruption shocks!

At ~| 10,000 crore, the domestic suspension products segment is a vital cog

in the overall automotive components industry. Competition in the

organised space is limited to a handful of players, of which GIN’s diversified

presence across user industries (62% 2-W, 24% PV, 14% CV) and

aftermarket makes it stand apart. Moreover suspension products are

expected to remain untouched amid ongoing & imminent disruptive forces

like electrification & tighter emission controls. Absence of business model

flux is seen benefiting this product segment, with scale effect helping market

leaders to further consolidate their dominance. In our view, players like GIN

would be prime rerating candidates once present OEM slowdown subsides.

Evolving channel mix to support profitability!

At 11% & 4% of sales, aftermarket and exports, respectively, provide some

healthy diversification from OEM’s channel fortunes. The company has a

leadership position in the aftermarket division (~35-40% market share) and

clocks higher margins there due to its B2C nature. It aims for this division to

help deliver | 500 crore to revenues by 2022-23. Furthermore, GIN’s

presence in developed markets (North America, Europe and Australia) and

focus on emerging Asian markets is also expected to lend support to

margins as channel mix evolves, going forward.

Valuation and outlook

Given muted production numbers at its key OEM clients amidst steady state

replacement market, conservatively, for GIN we estimate sales & PAT CAGR

of 1.0% & 9.7%, respectively, in FY19-21E. Earnings CAGR is also supported

by recent corporate tax rate reduction with GIN’s tax rate in FY19 at 33.6%.

While in keeping with growth challenges being faced by the entire auto

space currently, we believe the company’s unlevered B/S, steady margin

profile, double digit return ratios and healthy cash flow from operations

(~| 110 crore, ~7% CFO yield) stand it in good stead. Valuing GIN at 15x

P/E on FY21E EPS of | 8.0/share, we arrive at a target price of | 120 with a

HOLD rating on the stock.

Company Background

Gabriel India (GIN) is the flagship company of the Anand Group. It was

established in 1961 by Deep C Anand in collaboration with Maremont

Corporation, with initial operations in Mumbai. Over the years, the company

has transitioned from a manufacturer of shock absorbers into a provider of

the whole gamut of ride control and suspension products including axle

dampers, front forks, strut assembly, cabin dampers, seat dampers and

dampers for EMU & LHB coaches as well as diesel locomotives. It has a well-

diversified OEM client base across 2-W/3-W, PV, CV and off highway

segments in addition to the Railways space. With FY19 consolidated

revenues of | 2,077 crore, the company ranks among the top 10 shock

absorber players globally and has ambitions to break into top-five players

over time. The company manufactures products at 11 locations in India

(including four satellite plants), with production volume of 3.9 crore units in

FY19 and implied realisation at ~| 500/unit.

Exhibit 1: Company history

Source: Company, ICICI Direct Research

While predominantly an OEM play (~85% of channel mix), GIN does have a

significant presence in the aftermarket space for (~35-40% market share for

shock absorbers and struts) and serves the 2-W, 3-W, PV, CV & Railways

segments through a network of 664 dealers and ~12,000 retail outlets. The

company exports to North America, Europe, Australia and Asia Pacific

region, although exports as a proportion of overall sales remain fairly

modest at ~4%.

GIN counts all major domestic auto OEMs at its clients. However, no

individual client forms >20% of GIN’s revenues. This uniquely positions GIN

as a market leader in the Indian shock absorber market with a diversified

presence across target segments, channels and clients.

Investment Rationale

Product profile unencumbered by disruption

Suspension products (shock absorbers, struts, springs and linkages) are

staple components across automotive segments (2-W, 3-W, PV, CV and off

road) irrespective of powertrain, ignition technology and emission

technology. As such, they are believed to have largely withstood the wide

array of business model disruptions currently facing the auto industry, as

well as those slated to arrive in later years – transition to

electric/connected/automated mobility, light-weighting and the increasing

focus on tighter emission controls (e.g. BS-VI norms) and vehicular safety.

In case of electrification, for instance, even if the pace of transition itself is

gradual in nature, we believe the business threat would remain an overhang

on earnings multiples commanded by ancillary players engaged in

production of engine and powertrain components. On the other hand,

ancillaries producing components largely unencumbered by these

disruptive forces (e.g. suspension, interior parts, automotive lighting) stand

a chance to witness multiple expansion when growth cycle resumes. GIN as

a market leader in ride control products in India is relatively insulated from

the threat posed by these changes.

Diversified presence across segments, clients

GIN is uniquely positioned among domestic suspension products players in

terms of its varied exposure to segments (2-W, PV & CV) as well as clients

(no single client accounts for more than 20% of revenues). Over the years,

2-W, PV & CV have contributed ~57%, ~31% & ~12% of sales. The

company’s market share in 2-W, PV & CV is at ~25-30%, ~15-18% and ~75-

80%, respectively. GIN’s clientele includes major players across these

segments, (except Hero MotoCorp, which is largely on-board with Munjal

Showa). GIN is also present with newer entrants like Ather Energy & Okinawa

in the electric 2-W space, underlining both – its continued relevance even

with electrification and its client addition ability. Further, GIN’s involvement

with Indian Railways across its traditional (diesel locomotives) and emerging

technologies (EMU & LHB coaches) provides further diversification.

GIN supplies shock absorbers to the Indian Railways for the new Linke

Hofmann Busch coaches (LHB), which offer increased passenger safety and

comfort. As Indian Railways shifts from traditional coaches to these new-age

variants, the shock absorbers required per coach will increase from six to

18. These shock absorbers were earlier imported by the Indian Railways but

now would be manufactured locally, with GIN one of the key beneficiary.

Aftermarket, exports to help sustain margins

GIN has an aftermarket presence in all product segments across the 2-W,

PV, CV & Railways space (11% of sales) and commands ~35-40% market

share therein through its brand ‘Gabriel’. It has focused on expanding its

product portfolio (750+ SKU introductions in five years) to serve customers

through a distribution network of 664 dealers and 12,000 retailers. Some of

its new products include radiator coolants, oil seals, tyres & wheel rims. GIN

exports (4% of sales) to North America, Europe, Australia and the Asia

Pacific region and is looking to boost its presence in South East Asian region.

Higher margins in aftermarket (B2C business) have helped support overall

margins in the high single digit territory. We expect higher contribution from

aftermarket & exports going forward to help sustain this trajectory.

Risks & Concerns

Dependence on a single product line

GIN’s product portfolio comprises entirely of shock absorbers, front forks,

struts and dampers. While the company is among the leading players in the

suspension component industry, the lack of diversification in terms of

product lines exposes GIN to any business vagaries arising in this space.

Dependence on OEM channel

With OEMs contributing 85% of revenues, any slowdown in new vehicle

sales would have a significant knock-on impact on GIN. The company is

undertaking efforts to buffer itself against this threat by sharpening its focus

towards aftermarket and exports avenues. However, in the meantime, its

fortunes are largely tied to the performance of OEM clients.

CV slowdown to hurt, ASPs seen tapering

GIN is the market leader in the CV suspension segment, with ~75% market

share. CVs form 14% of revenues currently. We expect the current sharp

slowdown on the CV side to persist till FY21E as it coincides with a wider

down cycle in this segment. As a result, the share of CVs in total revenues

is seen declining over this period in favour of 2-Ws in particular. This would

negatively impact the blended realisations and consequent margins.

Legal & professional fee

The company paid ~| 50 crore as legal and profession fee as part of other

expenses in FY19. This is a regular expenditure line item and constitutes ~2-

2.5% of its annual sales against the back ground of ~8-9.5% EBITDA

margins profile at GIN. The quantum under this head is uncertain and may

vary going forward, thereby impacting the overall profitability.

Promoter group holds shock absorber business in other entities as well

GIN is a part of Anand group of companies. The group also has an entity viz.

Mando Automotive India Pvt Ltd, which is into manufacturing of braking

solutions as well as shock absorbers. Mando is a Korean company and in all

possibility supplies shock absorber solutions to Korean OEMs operating in

India viz. Hyundai, which is not a customer of GIN. This may cloud GIN’s

ability to directly on-board Hyundai as its key customers, going forward.

PAT EPS

Source: Company, ICICI Direct Research

We expect net sales to remain broadly flattish at GIN

over FY19-21E given the broad based slowdown in

the wider OEM segment currently. Further, we build

in dilution in ASP profile over this time frame as

segment mix moves in favour of 2-W given the

sharper drop in CV volumes and new capacity

addition geared towards meeting HMSI demand.

Aftermarket and exports, however, are expected to

lend top line support.

EBITDA is seen growing at 2.1% CAGR over FY19-

21E with attendant margins first declining to 8% in

FY20E on the back of OEM channel pain and

thereafter improving back towards 8.8% in FY21E

We expect PAT to grow faster than sales at 9.7%

CAGR over FY19-21E to | 114 crore aided by

reduction in tax outgo due to cut in corporate tax rate

Valuation and outlook

Given muted production numbers at its key OEM clients amidst steady state

replacement market, conservatively, for GIN we estimate sales & PAT CAGR

of 1.0% & 9.7%, respectively, in FY19-21E. Earnings CAGR is also supported

by recent corporate tax rate reduction with GIN’s tax rate in FY19 at 33.6%.

While in keeping with growth challenges being faced by the entire auto

space currently, we believe the company’s unlevered B/S, steady margin

profile, double digit return ratios and healthy cash flow from operations

(~| 110 crore, ~7% CFO yield) stand it in good stead. Valuing GIN at 15x

P/E on FY21E EPS of | 8.0/share, we arrive at a target price of | 120 with a

HOLD rating on the stock.
