Net debt reduced marginally to Rs 10.6bn (vs 11.2bn at FY20-end). However, with receivables of ~Rs 18bn, working capital still remains stretched.

Sadbhav Engineering Limited (SEL) yet again disappointed on execution front during Q1FY2021 with standalone revenues declining by 73% y-o-y to Rs. 230 crore. However, OPM beat expectations (although falling 402 bps y-o-y to 8.5%) as gross margins improved. Lower revenue affected by COVID-19 led challenges and a dip in OPM led to a standalone net loss of Rs. 26.6 crore (higher than our expectation of a net loss of Rs. 22 crore). However, post Q1FY2021, SEL has seen labour availability and execution run-rate improving to 70-80% and 60-70%, respectively, from July 2020. It expects to achieve labour availability of 90100% and normalized execution run-rate from October 2020 onwards. Hence, the...

We trim our FY21 estimate by 1.3% and maintain BUY. We maintain BUY with revised TP of Rs 62 (vs Rs 56 earlier). With proceeds from assets transferred to Indinfravit, SADE has improved net D/E to 0.53x vs 0.75x in FY19. Company has also planned for monetizing HAM assets under ROFO with Indinfravit. However, working capital still remains stretched. Further improvement in balance sheet and pick-up in execution will lead to re-rating.
booked a profit of ~Rs170mn on its investment. Sadbhav Engineering (SADE) reported a mixed set of results with better operating performance, however higher effective tax rate dented profitability. sale of Ahmedabad Ring Road BOT project at a P/BV of ~2.5x (valuation as per agreement) is to be completed in FY21E.

Update on HAM funding and arbitration proceeds: Gross debt outstanding for the 10 HAM assets stands at Rs 20.18bn, with balance requirement being Rs 24bn. On the equity front Rs 2.2/1.67bn is expected to be infused over FY21/22E. Arbitration proceeds of Rs 4.2bn have been awarded (Rs 2.2bn with SEL, Rs 2bn with SIPL). On the Rohtak-Panipat project, SEL has been advised by NHAI to move the case to conciliation committee rather than arbitration. In company's view it is a clear case of an event of default (alternate traffic route is the issue here) as per the CA, and is confident of recovering its entire equity and debt. Sadbhav Engineering Ltd (SEL) has announced a management rejig with Mr Vasistha Patel (VP) being appointed as CEO and Mr Shashin Patel stepping down as Chairman and MD to Vice Chairman in non executive capacity. We perceive this as a positive step with VP getting iron hand on execution and promoter SP dissociating himself from day to day run. SEL BS has deleveraged post the SIPL deal and now VP has immediate challenge of ramping up execution against the COVID-19 headwinds. We maintain BUY with SOTP of Rs 56/sh
SEL 3QFY20 performance was a disappointment as funding constraints limited execution of projects. With conclusion of InfInfravit deal funding issues will get resolved. Group standalone debt reduction by 50% will augur well for reinstating financial markets confidence in the group. Whilst it will take time for SEL to revert to historical levels of quarterly execution, we believe 3QFY21E onwards things should normalize. We maintain BUY. Key risks (1) Delay in new order inflows; and (2) Further delay in execution ramp-up. We maintain BUY on SEL with a reduced TP of Rs 175sh (vs. Rs 241/sh earlier). We value SELs EPC business at 15x FY21E EPS and assign a 20% hold co discount to SIPL stakes market cap. TP reduction is owing to FY20/21E EPS cut by 43/24%.
With the sale of majority of the assets in the SIPL platform to IndInfravit the SEL-SIPL Merger provides an opportunity to the company to recalibrate its business model to an asset light structure where it can further monetize its under construction portfolio through the ROFO agreement with IndInfravit, ensuring capital churning for securing new orders. Going forward, SEL is expected to prioritize securing new orders through EPC mode while selectively bidding for new HAM projects, once the NHAI activity gathers pace during 2HFY20. We maintain BUY. Key risks (1) Delay in new order inflows; and (2) Further delay in appointed dates for balance projects. We maintain BUY on SEL with a reduced TP of Rs 241/sh (vs. Rs 269/sh earlier). We value SELs EPC business at 15x FY21E EPS and assign a 20% hold co discount to SIPL stakes market value. Price cut is on account of revision in FY20/21E EPS by 4.9/(6.6)%.
22 October 2019 Infrastructure Directors of Sadbhav Engineering (SADE) has approved the merger of the company and its listed subsidiary Sadbhav Infrastructure Project Limited (SIPL). In consideration of the merger, SADE will issue one equity share for every three SADEs shareholders. As a result of the merger, the promoter stake in SADE will come down from 46.55% to 38.74%. recap, SADE had divested its stake in nine road assets at an EV of INR66.1b, resulting in a debt reduction of INR40.6b at the project level and realization of INR25.5b in lieu of equity invested. Anyway, the investor interest in the listed asset arm has been on a decline, as InvITs are better products compared to listed companies in the road assets business, given the removal of the dividend distribution tax on SPVs and the minimum construction risk. Prima facie, the merger appears value accretive to standalone SADE as the entire benefit of debt reduction in SIPL standalone gets captured in the new merged entity.
Contrary to investment wisdom SEL has corrected sharply when it is perceived to get significantly deleveraged over next 2-3months. Asset light model, selective focus on EPC projects bidding, ROFO on HAM assets, 10% stake in IndInfraVit (already SIPL is in the money) and potential resolution to bleeding Rohtak Panipat project are other key re-rating triggers. Merger may be another positive as combined entity curtails equity intensive projects and surplus cash is utilized towards pursuing growth, without equity dilution. SEL is in a sweet spot. CPPIB backing is literally a large bank support. We maintain BUY. Key risks (1) Delay in SIPL stake sale; (2) Slow order inflows; and (3) Further delay in appointed dates. We maintain BUY on SEL with a reduced TP of Rs 269/sh (vs. Rs 340 earlier). We value SELs EPC business at 15x FY21E EPS and assign a 20% hold co discount to SIPL stakes market value. Price cut is on account of FY20/21E EPS downgrade by 24.4/20.4%.
