VECV has market share of about 6% each in the goods as well as the passenger carrier segment.

VECV commercial vehicle sales composition has moved towards the MHCV goods segment. This is because it is not present in sub 3.5 tonne category of LCV goods, which has been the fastest growing segment in that category.

VECV has traditionally been strong player in the Intermediate Commercial Vehicles segment (vehicles having GVW of 7.5-12 tonnes). Nearly 80% of its sales in 9M FY11 have been from the ICV segment. Due to the hub and spoke model in logistic industry, this segment has been witnessing preference over the MCV segment (vehicles having GVW of 12-16.2 tonnes), which suits well for the company. Going forward VECV is planning to enhance presence in the Heavy commercial vehicle segment (GVW>16.2 tonnes).

Two Wheelers

EML has presence in two wheelers through Royal Enfield (it took over Royal Enfield in 1994) which manufacturers renowned “Bullet” range of motorcycles. Its product range includes “Bullet”, “Classic”, “Thunderbird” and ”Electra” brand of motorcycles, all of which are above 250 cc bikes and have created a niche for themselves. It has manufacturing presence in Chennai and also exports to many countries including USA, Japan, UK and other European countries.

Due to increasing demand, the company is expanding capacity from 60,000 units currently to 1,50,000 units by end of CY11. This will help to ease the order backlog (it currently has waiting period of 6 months). Further, the company has also planned to increase exports once the fresh capacity comes in.

SWOT Analysis

Strengths

● One of the leading manufacturers having established

brand and extensive dealer network

● Tie up with Volvo would enhance presence in CV market

● Sufficient Cash on balance sheet for funding capex

Weakness

● Minimal presence in the fast growing LCV

goods segment

● Having manufacturing presence in only

one location

● Lack of captive financing

Opportunities

● Use of Volvo overseas network to boost exports

● Increased sourcing by Volvo from VECV (e.g. engines)

● Increasing share of road in freight movement

Threats

● Intense competition from existing players

● Global players entering the market would

further aggravate competition

Investment Rationale

Commercial vehicle demand to remain strong

Indian economy is growing in high single digits and is expected to grow at 8.5-9% in next two years. This will lead to increase in freight movement. Further with increased share of road transport in freight movement, the demand for commercial vehicles is expected to increase. We expect demand for commercial vehicles to record CAGR growth of 15.7% during FY10-FY15. (Refer annexure for methodology)

Firm Freight Rates

Freight rates have remained firm in last six months, leading to increase in transporters profitability. Strong freight rates coupled with buoyant economic growth will provide impetus to demand for commercial vehicles.

Further, the share of road transport is expected to increase in the overall freight transport, especially since it is favored mode of transport for non bulk commodities. Also, as per Crisil estimates, cost of last mile connectivity and loading/unloading will increase by1.5 times than rise in freight rates. Thus, preference of railways as mode of transport would become less attractive. Further, the development of highways would ensure increasing share of road transport (measured in billion tonne kilometers) in freight movement, which will boost demand for commercial vehicles.

JV with Volvo to enhance presence

The agreement with Volvo will help EML in long way to enhance its presence in increasingly competitive CV market. VECV (Volvo Eicher Commercial Vehicles) would gain in terms of process improvement and efficiency improvement with incorporation of best manufacturing practices from Volvo,. Given Volvo’s leadership in the world heavy commercial vehicles, its support in VECV products, technology and marketing will enable VECV to bolster presence in the heavy commercial vehicle market (above 16.2 tonnes).

Further, VECV has gained from the agreement, as Volvo has announced procurement of engines from VECV for its global requirements. Volvo will source medium duty engines complying with Euro 3 to Euro 6 norms (engine capacity of 5-8 litres). For this purpose VECV will invest ~` 3000 million with production commencing in CY13. Further, VECV is also exploring possibilities of using Volvo’s overseas distribution networks to bolster its exports.

Two wheeler business to register growth

EML brand “Enfield” has good brand name in the market and it operates in the niche segment (250 cc and above). It is currently facing capacity constraint. Its bikes have waiting period of 6 months. EML is expanding capacity from current 60,000 to 1,50,000 by setting up new plant. It will also increase exports once the fresh capacity comes in. Increasing sales would enhance revenues and profitability going forward.

Enhancing Export revenues

VECV is planning to use Volvo overseas distribution network for sale of its trucks. VECV is planning to use Volvo network in Africa, Indonesia, Middle-East and Malaysia to boost exports. We believe there is opportunity to boost exports given that both VECV and Volvo operate in different segments.

Investment Concerns

Cyclicality of Business

Commercial vehicle business is cyclical in nature. Any slowdown in the economy has direct bearing on commercial vehicle sales. As EML derives significant revenues from the CV business (~90%), it is subject to the cycliality.

Raw Material costs

Raw material costs (steel, rubber, aluminium) are on increase. Any increase in the material cost to the extent not passed on to the consumer is likely to affect profitability.

Intense Competition

VECV is facing competition from existing players (Tata Motors, Swaraj Mazda and Ashok Leyland) in the ICV segment. Players like Asia Motor Works; Daimler and Mahindra have entered into the heavy-duty segment. Further Mercedes, Kammaz have planned entry into the heavy-duty goods segment. With VECV planning to increase presence in the heavy goods segment, it is likely to face intense competition.

(Net sales are for trailing twelve months period ending Dec 2010. Numbers for Tata Motors are on standalone

basis.)

● Tata Motors is market leader in the commercial vehicle industry with presence across the segments. It commands overall market share of about 60%. It also has the support of the captive financing arm Tata Motors Finance, which acts as an added advantage for the company.

● Ashok Leyland commands market share of ~12% of the overall industry. Ashok Leyland is primarily present in the medium and the heavy duty commercial vehicle market (above 12 tonnes).

● VECV is present primarily in the medium commercial market and commands market share of roughly 6%. In partnership with Volvo,the company is planning to increase presence in the heavy duty goods segment.

● Although Ashok Leyland and VECV have been in the industry for long time, their market share is limited due to minimal presence in the fast growing LCV goods segment.

Industry Analysis

Freight Movement

The share of road in transportation of goods has gone up over the years. Roadways now account for 59.8% of goods transported as against 54.8% in FY01. There is preference for road transportation mainly on basis of its easy accessibility, flexible operations, door-to-door service and reliability. We believe road transport will continue to hold high share of freight traffic in the country.

Passenger Movement

The share of road transport in passenger movement has remained at higher levels (85%) in last five years. We believe road transport will continue to maintain higher share in passenger movement in the country.

The Commercial vehicle industry can be classified into passenger carriers and goods carriers. Passenger carrier can be classified as LCV passenger carriers (Gross vehicle weight upto 7.5 tonnes) and MHCV passenger carriers (Gross vehicle weight above 7.5 tonnes). Similarly goods vehicles can be classified as LCV goods carriers (Gross vehicle weight upto 7.5 tonnes) and MHCV goods carriers (Gross vehicle weight above 7.5 tonnes).

In domestic commercial vehicle industry, LCV Goods segment is the largest category comprising 47% of the overall volumes, followed by MHCV Goods segment which comprises 39.7% of the overall industry volumes. MHCV Passenger vehicles and LCV passenger vehicles constitute 7.4% and 5.8% of the overall industry volumes respectively in 9MFY11.

There has been significant shift in the commercial vehicle composition over the years. The share of LCV goods segment has increased significantly over last few years. LCV goods segment share in overall volumes has increased from 31.4% in FY05 to 47.4% in FY10. Similarly, we have seen a decline in MHCV goods segment (from 54.3% in FY05 to 38% in FY10). The share of passenger vehicle segment has been stable at 14% of the overall industry volumes.

Apart from the usual freight demand, rural consumption growth and expansion of urban expenditure basket is leading to increased use of smaller vehicles for freight distribution. Also, increasing penetration of organized retail is driving growth of LCV goods segment. We expect LCV goods segment to register higher growth than the overall commercial vehicle industry.

LCV Goods segment

In the LCV goods segment, growth has been spurred by vehicles of sub one tonne category (especially after introduction of Tata Ace); consequently the share of upto 3.5 tonne category vehicles has increased from 54.9% in FY05 to 86.2% in 9M FY11. Volumes in this category have received further boost with the launch of Mahindra Gio.

Porter’s Five Forces Model

Valuation and Recommendation

We have estimated core business EPS of ` 71.9 in CY12E. We assign multiple of 11x (discount of 21% to Ashok Leyland P/E of 14x) to arrive at value of ` 791 for the core business. Adding cash per share of ` 462, we arrive at value of ` 1,253. We, therefore give “Hold” rating on the stock.

Threat from Substitutes : Medium

Railways are preferable mode of transport, particularly forcarriage of bulk commodities and due to relatively lessercost of transport. However roadways provide end-to-endconnectivity and also provide piece meal freighttransportation, which is favorable for non bulk commodities

Supplier Bargaining Power: Low

OEM’s procure raw materials from numberof suppliers, who are small players. Furtherordering is done in bulk. Thus supplier’s bargaining power is low.

Threat from New Entrants: Medium

The investment required for setting up large distributionchannels and after sales network is a critical entry barrier.Further, introducing advanced technology products calls forcontinuous innovation and investments in R&D, which actsas another major barrier. However, global players arechoosing to enter the CV market through JV(Volvo Eicher, MahindraNavistar, MANForce)

Current Competition: High

Intensified with entry of globalplayers. Technologically superiorproducts and conformity tointernational standards havebecome the benchmark

Buyer Bargaining Power: Medium

There is higher proportion of small fleetoperators in overall truck market who havelimited bargaining power. However, given thepresence of huge used CV market limitsmanufacturers passing on price increases
