FY18 was a transformational year for IRB on many counts with the group completing 1st year of InvIT launch, making its foray into the growing HAM space and the overhang of the CBI case getting resolved.

Asset light outsourcing model for plywood has worked well for GIL: GIL outsources ~30% of its plywood volumes. This has helped the company to focus on the premium category for own production. GIL enjoys a strong brand recall in the plywood business and company's capacity expansion will be coming on-stream at the right time as its existing capacity is already running at full utilization. We expect Plywood to post Volume/Revenue CAGR of 9%/12% over FY17-20E led by midrange brand Ecotec' (Volume/Revenue CAGR of 18%/22% over FY17-20E). Mega capex in progress; expect earning boost post FY19: GIL currently has a 30% market share mainly in the organized Indian MDF market which in turn is worth...
MDF to lead FY17-20E growth given shift from lower end plywood to MDF: MDF is expected to remain one of the fastest growing (15-20%) wood panel product with pricing differential of MDF vs. cheap plywood (low at ~10-12%) and with better durability & newer applications,. Additionally, capacity constraint of existing players in North India will provide CPL with an opportunity given its strong distribution network and brand awareness to ramp up its production and gain market share in a fast growing category. We expect CPL to achieve 85% utilization levels in MDF by FY20E and thus volumes/revenues are expected to grow at...

Although operating performance looks weak prima facie, analysis of segmental performance suggests that the disappointment is on account of services business (owing to rise in NPA in finance business and provisioning of receivables in Nabba Power). The performance of the core business was in-line with our expectation. On account of higher other income, lower interest expenses and taxation, net profit jumped 29.5% YoY. For the full year FY17, revenues (ex-services) were up 8.2% YoY...
