Right place, right time Steady growth in MTO; domestic GDP revival to benefit CFS, P&E

Allcargo Logistics gives an unique opportunity to participate in the (a) domesticeconomic revival (through CFS and P&E) and (b) exposure to global LCL (less thancontainer load) consolidation market where it is one of the top two players (fastgrowing sub-segment in container shipping) with presence in >90 countries.

Strong balance sheet, increasing FCF will help Allcargo to further consolidate inglobal LCL market and can also look at monetizing its domestic land bank tobenefit from upcoming rail DFC (dedicated freight corridor) and GST reform.

We expect EBITDA CAGR of 15% through FY18 led by 17% in MTO, 15% in CFS and12% in Project and engineering leading to earnings CAGR of 22%. We valueAllcargo at 14x FY18 EPS to arrive at a fair value of INR243. Initiate coverage witha Buy.

Leader in LCL market; to benefit from shift in shipping trends AllCargo, led by acquisitions is now among top two in the world in niche LCL

market with presence in 90 countries. LCL is expected to grow aboveindustry average led by shift in global business dynamics.

Allcargo MTO volumes are expected to grow above industry average andimprove margins led by (a) efforts to improve volume per container filledfactor to boost margins and (b) negotiating better rates with shippers (scalehelps!), an advantage over competitors to attract volumes.

We expect LCL margins to remain 200-300bps above FCL's 3-3.5% and modelAllcargo's volume CAGR at 9% through FY18 and EBIT margin improvementfrom 4% in FY15 to 5% by FY18.

Domestic economic recovery augurs well for its CFS, P&E businesses We expect an uptick in CFS/ICD (7% of revenue, 25% of EBITDA), operating

at 65% utilization with improving port volumes and containerization trend. We expect P&E segment (7% of revenue, 33% of EBITDA), which includes

cranes, project logistics and shipping to grow with higher infrastructure activity in India through higher utilization.

We model EBIT CAGR (FY15-18) of 13% in CFS/ICD and 18% in P&E.Well positioned to invest growing FCF in value accretive opportunities With current net debt/equity of ~0.3x and likely FCF of ~INR13b till FY18 (v/s

MCap of INR46b, gross block of INR20b), AGLL is well positioned to play toits strengths of value accretive acquisitions and invest in allied businesses.

We expect it to (a) increase its hold on global LCL business throughopportunistic acquisitions, (b) invest in DFC and GST led opportunities.

Valuation and view We believe that Allcargo Logistics through its superior size and global

presence has created an effective economic moat versus its competitors. We value Allcargo Logistics at 14x FY18E EPS, and arrive at a target price of

INR243. Initiate coverage with a 'Buy'. The stock trades at 10.6x FY18EPS.

LCL leader; to benefit with shift in shipping trends Global presence, focus on improving fill factor to drive margins

Allcargo, led by acquisitions is now present in 90 countries and is one of the leaders inniche recession proof LCL segment (~10% of industry). LCL is expected to grow aboveindustry average led by shift in global business practices to just-in-time, shorterturnaround from factory to end consumers, ecommerce and high air transport costs.

Allcargo, through concentrated efforts is focusing on (a) improving container fill factorto drive margin growth and (b) negotiating better rates (scale helps!) with shippers tonegotiate better rates, an advantage over competitors to attract volumes.

We expect LCL margins to remain 200-300bps above FCL’s 3-3.5% and model Allcargo’svolume CAGR at 9% through FY18 and EBIT margin improvement from 4% in FY15 to4.6% by FY18.

Leadership position in LCL segment built on acquisitions Presence in all the key markets and at origination and terminating destination is a critical factor for global logistics player. Allcargo, within a short period of time, has achieved a much necessary global scale in the LCL consolidation industry with presence in 90 countries and ~200 offices, primarily led by acquisitions in US, Europe and Asia. Allcargo is now amongst the top 2 neutral (third party) LCL consolidators in the world.

LCL consolidation industry is a niche sub-segment of the global shipping industry and contributes 10-15% (estimate based on industry interactions and Datamyne estimates) of the total container volumes transported through ocean.

Strategic acquisitions boosted growth and gave scale: While Allcargo commenced LCL business in 1995, the big boost to its owned network came in 2005/06 when it acquired Belgium based ECU-Line (Ecu-line then had 100 offices in 56 countries and agent network in 120 countries). Its other acquisitions include 2 Hong Kong based NVOCC’s in 2010, US based LCL operator Econocaribe in 2013 and majority stake (75%) in Netherlands based FCL Marine in 2013.

Allcargo’ first major LCL space acquisition was in 2005 when it acquired a 33.8%stake in ECU-Line followed by purchase of remaining stake in 2006 leading to atotal enterprise value of ~€50m. At the time of acquisition ECU-Line had 4.3xAllcargo revenue and acquisition catapulted Allcargo to the top 2 LCL player withother being US based Vanguard.

Econocaribe (deal value of ~USD50m; was then agent of ECU-Line and amongtop 3 LCL consolidators in US) strengthened Allcargo position in US with its thennine offices and 22 container freight terminals in the US and Canada.

FCL Marine is a niche player operating FCL player primarily operating to and froEurope and US/Canada.

Global scale is a win-win for all in value chain? LCL players like Allcargo book the container berths with the shipping companies on a regular basis and in turn resell the space in smaller quantity (less than container load) to the consumers at higher rates. This is a win-win for both as consumers save the cost of hiring the full container and LCL player is able to resell the space at favorable rates.

Allcargo’s advantage over other operators is that while Allcargo has global presence, other operators cannot expand on the same scale. If local players want to expand abroad they will need to do so via agents which then begin to eat away at the margins of the business, making it unattractive. Due to its global presence Allcargo can offer more and more direct trade lanes. This greatly reduces operational risk to not only Allcargo but also its customers.

Global scale gives an edge to (a) negotiate better rates with the shipping companies, (b) be cost competitive versus competition to attract more volumes and (c) not shyaway from business even if there is margin imbalance.a) Ability to book large container volume with shipping companies gives Allcargo

an advantage to negotiate better rates with the shipping companies.b) Lower rates by the shippers helps Allcargo to offer better rates to its customers

versus competition thereby attracting more volumes.c) Network reach with offices in both origination and destination is one of the key

competitive advantages in the LCL business as LCL operator will have control onthe cargo at both ends and also secure business even if there is marginimbalance* between the destinations.*If container margin on a trade lane from “A to B” is better than from a tradelane from “B to A”, then the LCL operator with offices at both ends will have anadvantage over an operator with agent network (LCL operator at origin withagent network will try to avoid business from “B to A”).

What is LCL and dynamics of LCL What is LCL? LCL stands for ‘less than container load’ and LCL service provider is a cargo consolidator. Customers who do not have a cargo which can fill the container fully opt for the services of LCL consolidator like Allcargo.

Allcargo is a LCL service provider and acts as a conduit between a shipping line and its customers which primarily include Customs House Agents (CHAs), freight forwarders, importers and exporters.

The Importance of LCL is increasing with the changing business practices like just-in-time, low inventories, emergence of e-commerce etc which require frequent but smaller shipments of cargo. LCL is also largely immune to economic recessions. Further, shipping lines do not offer LCL services usually and these services are handled by consolidators like ECU-Line (Allcargo).

Where does LCL stand in overall shipping business? A customer who wants to transport container can either contact the shipping line (Eg. Maersk, CMA, Hapag Lloyd ) directly or can use the services of the third party freight forwarders (Eg. DHL, Panalpina, CH Robinson), who primarily deal in FCL (full container load). Shipping lines can entertain customer directly too if the customer is large in size.

The third party freight forwards are also called as NVOCCs (Non-vessel operating common carriers) and these can be further divided into LCL and FCL NVOCC’s.

LCL stands for less than container load FCL stands for full container load

Exhibit 5: The LCL Consolidation process

Source: Company, MOSL How big is the LCL market? Globally, the LCL segment accounts for 10-15% of the total revenue generated by forwarders, the remaining 85-90% is by FCL. LCL revenues stand at USD10-12b (CY14), with an annual volume of 2.3 million TEUs. (twenty Feet Equivalent).

Niche opportunity: LCL is a niche sub-segment within the shipping business and in our view freight forwarders do not do LCL themselves as (a) it is a more tedious process, involving interaction with a minimum of 10 entities per container and (b) low scale versus FCL business.

Competitive scenario: Top three (Allcargo, Vanguard and Shipco) LCL consolidators contribute to about 40% of the neutral global LCL market. Other LCL operators in India include Team Global and LCL Logistics.

Evolving market dynamics to keep LCL volume growth high LCL is expected to grow above industry average led by shift in global business practices to just-in-time, shorter factory-to-fork time, ecommerce and high air transport costs.

Sticky volumes: LCL volumes tend to be sticky and are more immune to slowdown in the overall container market. During economic recessions, a large part of FCL volumes gets converted into LCL volumes.

LCL margins higher than FCL: Allcargo realizations are typically cost plus basis, i.e. the shipping freight is a pass-through and Allcargo charges 28-30% margin above it. LCL offers margins up to 200-300 basis points higher than FCL.

Exhibit 6: Allcargo EBIT margin higher than other global FCL players

*Ocean segment EBIT margins Source: Industry, MOSL

Can Allcargo enter into FCL in a big way? Allcargo focus on the LCL business is driven by the shipping market dynamics,

wherein it is already dominated by the large established companies. To gain afoothold in a market dominated by such heavyweights would be an arduoustask, in our view.

While Allcargo too does FCL in a small way, but it is not its core business and isdone only on a case-to-case business as per requirement of its clients. 30% ofLCL volume for Allcargo comes from these big freight forwarders. However, thecompany has realized that given its LCL network, it can selectively offer FCLservices to its existing and prospective clients without adding any major indirectcosts.

If Allcargo goes into a pure-play freight forwarding (FCL + LCL) then it will becompeting against its customers which are much bigger than Allcargo. It will alsobe forced to offer the entire supply-chain solutions the likes of which areoffered by DHL and other players.

We model MTO volume growth at 9% We model Allcargo’s MTO volume CAGR at 9% in FY15-18E driven by underlying business dynamics and EBIT margin improvement from 4% to 4.6% helped by superior negotiating with shippers, higher use technology in planning and improving fill factor.

Model high single digit organic volume growth: While majority of the historical growth in the MTO business is through acquisitions, the evolving global business dynamics offer double digit volume growth possibility through organic growth too.

However, in order to further strengthen its market shares in some geographies like US, China, Brazil and Africa, Allcargo can do further acquisitions in the MTO space in our view. Focus could be also in strengthening its position in the countries where it has presence but has room to improve its market share.

Domestic economic recovery augurs well for CFS/P&E Steady growth led by port volumes and strong alliances with shipping lines

CFS/ICD business (7% of revenue, 25% of EBITDA) currently operating at 51%utilization will see an uptick with improving port volumes and containerization trend.

We expect P&E segment (7% of revenue, 33% of EBITDA), which includes cranes,project logistics and shipping to grow with higher infrastructure activity in Indiathrough higher utilization. Switching to an asset light model in the P&E segment willimprove return ratios

We expect EBIT CAGR (FY15-18) of 13% in CFS/ICD and 18% in P&E.

Higher utilization of CFS capacity will drive volumes in FY15-18E Allcargo operates a total of 4 CFS (three locations - JNPT, Chennai and Mundra) and 2 ICDs (Pithampur and Dadri). The company has also started developing another CFS at Kolkata which is expected to start operations in FY17. We expect Allcargo’s CFS business to benefit from (a) Macro trends – Port volume growth and increasing containerization, (b) its relationship with the shipping companies on account of MTO business and (c) strategic location and (d) favorable EXIM mix. We model volume growth at 8% CAGR through FY18 and EBITDA margin at 38.8%.

Exhibit 9: We model CFS volumes to grow at 8% CAGR from FY15-18

Source: Company, MOSL

Macros supportive for strong growth ahead: Container volume in India isexpected to be 2x by 2020, driven by EXIM trade and an increase incontainerization from the current 55% to >65% (versus developed countries’average of 70%). The containerization growth will be driven by:

1. Growth in the typical containerized cargo like electronics, textiles, foodproducts, pharmaceuticals, machinery and paper, and other break-bulkcommodities like steel, cement, sugar and rice.

2. Availability of rail transit capacity post DFCs commissioning, expansion in thecontainer handling capacity at ports, CFCs, ICDs and inland waterways.

3. Multi-modal logistics park development.

Leveraging relationships in the LCL segment: Indian CFS business whilecompetitive led by large number of players at each port location, the operatorswho can ensure higher utilization will continue to benefit more. Typically,majority of the CFS are located within the 10-20km from the port therebymaking it difficult to differentiate for the CFS operators to differentiate. Webelieve, Allcargo’s large LCL business gives it an advantage as it can leverage itsrelationships with shipping companies to attract more volumes.

CFS locations strategic: Allcargo’s CFS presence in three ports is strategic in ourview as these ports handle 76% (FY15) of the India’s container volume. Further,current utilization levels leave ample space for future volume growth. Even atJNPT, given that it has utilized just 50% of the 2nd CFS land, it is geared to benefitfor the planned doubling of the JNPT port capacity.

EXIM mix and dwell time critical to ensure higher profitability: We understand~50% of the CFS revenue come from the ground rental linked to dwell time(number of days container stored in the CFS). Typically, earnings from importcontainers are more than export and Allcargo’s relationships with shippingcompanies helps it to keep this ratio favorable. However, on the dwell timefront with improving infrastructure it has reduced from 12-13 days five years

Expect infra spend pick-up to drive P&E and contract logistics segment Allcargo’s Project and Engineering (P&E) division comprises of (a) Crane leasing, (b) project cargo transportation and (c) shipping. All these businesses are heavily correlated with the domestic economic growth and investment cycle.

Allcargo’s P&E division post the heavy capex on the crane business was caught in the downturn before resurrecting in the last two years. While the return ratios in this business are subdued, going forward are expected to improve as the company plans to adopt asset light model (will lease cranes instead of outright purchase).

Cranes: Economic revival, wind energy investments to drive growth Demand for cranes is expected to increase with economic revival and investments in wind farms. Based on the industry interaction and peer comparison, we believe the crane leasing margins can be >50% and would be one of the highest in Allcargo’s P&E segment. However, going forward as the company moves to a more asset light model by leasing cranes rather than purchasing them, reported margins could be lower but will improve overall returns. With the utilization rates already above 90%, further growth will be driven by increased pricing power.

Coastal shipping focus to help the company post healthy returns The government plans has targeted that by 2020, coastal shipping will account for 10% of the transportation from the current 7%. It has announced various projects and financial incentives. These will directly lead to the growth of the coastal shipping business. AllCargo is steadily increasing its fleet size (FY15 revenues at ~INR750m) to create barriers to entry and also plans to aggressively expand coastal shipping.

Project Cargo being driven by increase in infra spending The segment growth is primarily driven by infrastructure spending and investment in large scale projects. With government’s plan to significantly boost power generation, cement and energy sectors in India, project cargo business is expected to grow favorably.

Other segments: Contract Logistics (3PL) expected to grow post GST and DFC Contract logistics revenue contribution was negligible (compared to Allcargo overall revenues) at ~INR120m in FY15, however we believe has a potential to grow substantially driven by e-commerce, GST and DFC (dedicated freight corridor) led opportunities. We believe the growth would be both organic as well as inorganic; however timelines and opportunity size will emerge over the medium term.

Expect large FCF deployment to be RoE accretive Expect AGLL to invest on DFC and GST led opportunities

With current net debt/equity of ~0.3x and likely FCF of INR13b till FY18 (v/s MCap of~INR46b, gross block of INR20b), AGLL is well positioned to play to its strengths ofvalue accretive acquisitions and invest in allied businesses.

We expect it to (a) further strengthen its hold on global LCL business throughopportunistic acquisitions, (b) invest in DFC and GST led opportunities.

Prudent balance sheet, high FCF creates opportunities AGLL management has strong investment track record: Allcargo has made more than 8 acquisitions in the last 10 years primarily in the MTO space and has invested significantly in the domestic CFS and P&E segment. These acquisition and investments has helped AGLL to grow revenue, EBITDA and PAT at 26%/25%/19% respectively. While the acquisitions has led to accretion of goodwill (INR8.7b) and depressed RoE’s (ex-goodwill reported FY15 RoE improves from 13% to 24%), but nevertheless its book value (adjusted for goodwill) has grown at 15% CAGR in the last 8 years.

Exhibit 17: AGLL revenue/EBITDA/PAT grew at 26%/25%/19% since CY06

Exhibit 18: Book value CAGR at 15% impressive despite acquisition led goodwill accretion

Source: Company, MOSL

Large FCF – Increase dividend or invest aggressively? While, there is a room to improve dividend payout (currently at 12.5% on consolidated basis), we expect AGLL management to play to its strengths and opt for more investment in the core and allied businesses.

Based on our AGLL’s capex understanding in the current businesses, we expect AGLL to generate FCF of INR13b till FY18 (v/s MCap of INR46b, gross block of INR20b). Further, its prudent net debt/equity of 0.3x (FY15 basis) gives room to raise debt if any large investment opportunity comes up.

Expect AGLL management to pursue shareholder value accretive opportunities We expect AGLL management to (a) further strengthen its hold on global LCL business through opportunistic acquisitions, (b) invest in DFC and GST led opportunities. Of its three business segments, we expect further investments in its MTO and P&E segment as current CFS utilization leaves large scope of growth without any capex requirement.

Exhibit 23: Analyzing investment opportunities Cash deployment avenues Our view

Increase dividend While dividend payout can be increased marginally, AGLL shareholders could benefit more by investing in new businesses given the management's investment track record

CFS Given the current utilization levels, no need to commit further capex in CFS in the medium term

MTO Focus on strengthening position in countries with high potential and where consolidation will be value accretive

Crane leasing Changed business dynamics now make cranes available for leasing, so expect AGLL to sub-lease cranes rather than outright purchase, thereby boosting return ratios

Coastal shipping Large opportunity given government focus - can selectively add more ships

DFC, GCT led opportunities Recent senior management induction of Mr. Tulsiani could help in developing this business segment. Can explore opportunities to develop its landbank (213 acres at Nagpur, Bangalore and Hyderabad) or add more to pursue logistics parks opportunities or develop its contract logistics opportunities.

Valuation and view Initiate coverage with Buy

We believe that Allcargo Logistics through its superior size and global presencevia ECU Line has established an effective competitive advantage versus itscompetitors.

It is therefore well placed to tackle both any sluggishness in container businessas well as make good use of the opportunities in this space.

We estimate EBITDA/PAT CAGR of 15%/23% through FY15-18E and return ratiosare expected to improve from ~13% to 17%-19% driven by improvement inmargins and reduction in capex intensity in the business.

Due to strong EBITDA/PAT growth driven by (a) consistent increase in volumesand (b) increase in margins, we assign a PE multiple of 14x to Allcargo.

Our target PE is in line with the last ~10 year average PE; we expect 22%earnings growth through FY18 v/s ~18% earnings growth since CY06 to FY15.

Based on our implied FY17 PE of 17.0x, AGLL is relatively undervalued by ~26%when compared to Navkar and ~33% when compared to GDPL (adj.)

We value Allcargo Logistics at 14x FY18E EPS, and arrive at a target price ofINR243. Initiate coverage with a 'Buy'. The stock trades at 10.6x FY18EPS.

Key risks

Economic risks: CFS and MTO businesses are closely linked to the global tradevolumes. Any slowdown in global trade, due to slowdown in global GDP growthor due to the slowdown in key trade hubs like China, or due to other factors willimpact overall volumes growth.

Currency risks: The MTO revenues are generated by subsidiaries based outsideIndia. While preparing the consolidated statements, the earnings are translatedinto INR. Any fluctuations in forex will hence impact the financial statements ofthe company.

Risk of impairment of goodwill: Allcargo has reported more than INR8.5bn ofgoodwill, due to the number of acquisitions it has done in the past. Anyimpairment in the value of this goodwill will negatively impact the financialstatements of the company.
