ICICI Securities Ltd | Retail Equity Research

NBCCs revenues grew 37.5% YoY to | 1147.3 crore ahead of our


estimate of | 1038.0 crore. While the PMC division revenues grew
30.4% YoY to | 970.0 crore, the real estate division revenues grew
radically by 102.4% YoY to | 128.2 crore
The EBITDA margin contracted 67 bps YoY to 3.4% below our
estimate of 5.3% mainly on account of a one-off of | 14.1 crore as
post retirement medical benefit under employee benefit expense.
Adjusting for this, the EBITDA stands at ~4.7%
PAT grew 33.5% YoY to | 43.3 crore, below our expectation of | 58.8
crore mainly due to one-off expenses associated with post retirement
employee expenses

Robust order book providing strong revenue visibility


As on June 30, 2015, NBCCs order book has reached ~| 27,000 crore,
5.5x TTM revenues, providing strong revenue visibility, going forward.
Out of this, ~| 20,500 crore is from PMC division, ~| 3,500 crore redevelopment project (East Kidwai Nagar) while remaining is real estate
(~| 3,000 crore) and EPC division (~| 700-800 crore). Furthermore, the
management expects an order inflow of ~| 12000-13000 crore in FY16
(ex-redevelopment) and order book around ~| 30000-35000 crore (exredevelopment) by FY16E end. Furthermore, in the redevelopment space,
NBCC recently grabbed new opportunities worth ~| 8000 crore. Out of
this, ~| 6000 crore is of East Delhi Hub project by Delhi Development
Authority (DDA) a, development of lake view complex (~| 2000 crore)
and redevelopment of IIPA campus (~| 435 crore).

Key beneficiary of government initiatives


GoI recently launched three ambitious schemes Atal Mission for
Rejuvenation & Urban Transformation (AMRuT), Housing For All by 2020
and 100 smart cities mission aimed at urban development. NBCC is
already implementing a few smart townships like Kidwai Nagar and New
Moti Bagh. The company is looking to provide an all-round smart city
solution, which would include both construction and technical
(IT/Electronic) services. Consequently, NBCC has signed an MoU with IBM
and a Malaysian JV firm for the same. However, order inflows from these
initiatives would take some time to percolate into the order book as these
developments are at a nascent stage.

Not keen on FPO fund raising in near term


In May 2015, the board had approved an FPO of 10% of the post issue
equity share capital for augmenting the company's resources to fund the
business development plans, subject to the approval of Government of
India. The proceeds were to be used as seed money to fund expected redevelopment projects. However, the management is not keen on raising
funds on an immediate basis. We highlight that we have already built up
the dilution in our estimates at the current market price.

Long term story intact; maintain BUY


We remain positive on NBCCs business model given the huge
opportunities in the redevelopment and real estate space and its cash rich
balance sheet. Hence, we have a BUY recommendation on NBCC with an
SOTP based target price of | 1150 (implying 27.6x FY17 EPS and ~0.7x
FY15-17E PEG ratio). We also highlight that we have now revised our
dilution arising from FPO at the current market price in our estimates.

Company Analysis
Strong order book and consistent order inflow
NBCCs order book has grown at 28.7% CAGR in FY04-14. The order book
as on Q1FY16 is at ~| 27,000 crore i.e. 5.5x order book to bill ratio,
providing strong revenue visibility over the next couple of years. The
current order book comprises the PMC business of~| 20500 crore, redevelopment business worth ~| 3500 crore, EPC business ~ | 700-800
crore and real estate business of ~| 3000 crore. Also, in the same period
of FY04-14, order inflows have grown at ~26% CAGR.
Going forward, the management has guided that order inflows will
increase substantially primarily due to opportunities arising from
redevelopment of old colonies in New Delhi. Therefore, we expect order
acquisition and execution to remain healthy. We have built in 86% CAGR
in the order book during FY15-17E.

Working capital & cash flows - best in the industry


NBCC has a unique advantage of generating cost-free float from its PMC
division where it is able to get revenue upfront from clients. On the other
hand, it gets an extended credit period from contractors. Consequently,
this has led to a negative working capital cycle and healthy CFO and FCFF
over the years. It is one of the biggest economic moats of NBCC as
compared to its peers in the industry. In FY14, NBCC enhanced its land
bank to expand its real estate business which led to an increase in the
inventory, in turn, leading to a higher working capital and lower CFO as
compared to those in the previous year. Hence, it earns from both
operations as well as float.

Recently, the government started focusing on redevelopment of


ramshackle buildings and old government colonies in Delhi and across
India to build multi-storeyed residential and commercial complexes. In
FY15, NBCC had entered into an agreement with the Rajasthan
government for re-development works. On similar basis, NBCC is in close

Page 4

negotiations with Odisha government and also with the Uttar Pradesh,
West Bengal governments for other redevelopment projects
The successful execution of the New Moti Bagh project and PWO status
for NBCC has opened up a huge opportunity in other government/PSU
properties. Currently, NBCC is implementing similar redevelopment
projects of a government colony in East Kidwai Nagar, Delhi. It is the first
of 30 government colonies across Delhi spread over 1100 hectares of
prime real estate. Also, NBCC has received the go-ahead from the MoUD
to redevelop three colonies viz. Netaji Nagar, Kasturba Nagar and
Thyagaraj Nagar in the heart of South Delhi spread over ~185 acres at an
estimated project cost of ~ | 15,000 crore.
Opportunities from various government schemes
NBCC has been executing many landmark projects as a PMC as its core
strength leveraging its rich experience in diverse sectors. The company
has also been designated as the implementing agency for executing
projects under Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission
(JNNURM), Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojna (PMGSY), solid waste
management (SWM) and developmental work in the North Eastern
Region. NBCC has signed an agreement with the state government of
Punjab wherein it will build 18 de-addiction centres at an initial cost of
| 100 crore using prefab technology.
Also, the company is in the process of sending a Cabinet note for
redevelopment of 18 government presses across India wherein presses
will be modernised and the rest of the land will be used for commercial
exploitation. Recently, in the state budget speech, the Rajasthan Chief
Minister announced the formation of a JV with NBCC to execute various
redevelopment works and construction projects in Rajasthan.

Real estate value additive business


We also like NBCCs strategy to invest part of its surplus cash flow into the
value enhancing real estate business in a disciplined manner and keep its
balance sheet debt free. Currently, NBCC has accumulated 170 acres of
land reserves across 12 states in India. Going ahead, it is looking to
plough back 50% of its annual profit in the land to explore opportunities
in the real estate division and looking to raise its contribution to 20-25%
over the next three to five years from 15-16% currently.
Hence, revenue from the real estate business has grown at ~39% CAGR
to | 496.8 crore during FY12-15. Also, its contribution to overall revenue
has reached 11%. The management envisages greater than 25%
contribution from the real estate division to overall revenue in the next
couple of years, which would lead to higher operating margins.

EPCwell poised to take on new opportunities in infrastructure sector


NBCC was incorporated as a pure EPC player wherein it has been
executing engineering and construction services for projects such as
chimneys, cooling towers and various types of power plant works.
However, growth has remained subdued in the last few years. Currently,
mere 4.3% of the revenues are contributed by the EPC business. Going
ahead, the governments priority to boost infrastructure will create
opportunities for the construction industry. NBCC is well poised to grab
this opportunity.

Navratna status opens up new set of opportunities


NBCC became the fifteenth Navratna Company on June 23, 2014 among
250 PSUs in India. Navratna status gives the company freedom to forge
tie-ups in the international market and also allows its autonomy on
investment decision up to | 1000 crore. The government is considering a
proposal to hive off real estate owned by sick PSUs such as Bengal
Chemicals, National Bicycle Corporation and Richardson & Cruddas in
Mumbai's Worli, Byculla, etc. to NBCC. NBCC will be using the direct sale
of land or JV for the development of real estate. This is expected to pave
the way for long-term opportunities for NBCC in the real estate segment.
The company is also looking at strategic alliances with domestic and
international players in West Asia, Europe and Commonwealth of
Independent States (CIS) countries to scout for EPC contracts as the
acquisition route would be time consuming. NBCC has already signed a
JV with Oman based Al Naba Construction LLC for EPC contracts in Oman
and the UAE. Also, it is looking at similar opportunities in political stable
geographies like Turkey and CIS countries.
Navratna status gives the company freedom to forge tie-ups in the
international market and also allows it autonomy on investment decisions
up to | 1000 crore. Currently, only 1-2% of the total revenue is
contributed by international projects. Going ahead, the management is
expecting the contribution to go up to 10-12%.

Revenues to grow at CAGR of 44% during FY15-17E


We expect revenue to witness robust growth of 44% CAGR
to | 8011.6 crore during FY15-17E

NBCC has achieved its target revenue of | 4,200 crore, PAT margin of
5.6% and order inflow of | 5,000 crore in FY15 as per the MoU signed
with Government of India. By looking at NBCCs past track record and
current position, we believe it will over achieve the expected MoU target
in FY16E and FY17E. Considering the current order book and its ongoing
projects, we expect revenues to witness robust growth at 44% CAGR to
| 9661.6 crore in FY15-17E.

EBITDA to grow at 61.2% CAGR during FY15-17E


We expect an EBITDA margin expansion by 150 bps to
7.7% in FY17E. Consequently, EBITDA is expected to grow
at 61.2% CAGR to | 745.6 crore during FY15-17E

We expect revenues from the high margin real estate business to increase
substantially during FY15-17E. Also, the companys strategy to focus on
high value projects in the PMC division will further boost EBITDA margins
as they have lower percentage of overhead cost. Hence, these will lead to
an overall EBITDA margin expansion by 150 bps to 7.7% in FY17E.
Consequently, EBITDA is expected to grow at 61.2% CAGR to | 745.6
crore during FY15-17E.

PAT to grow at 41.5% CAGR during FY15-17E


We envisage PAT will post healthy growth of 41.5% CAGR
during FY15-17E to | 555.0 crore aided mainly by the
strong topline performance

NBCCs bottomline has grown at 19.0% CAGR during FY10-15 largely led
by its robust topline growth and zero interest expenses. We envisage PAT
will post healthy growth at 41.5% CAGR during FY15-17E to | 555.0 crore
aided mainly by the strong topline performance.

Consistent dividend payer.


NBCC pays out ~20-25% of its earnings as dividends to
investors. We expect a similar payout ratio, going ahead

NBCC pays out ~20-25% of its earnings as dividends to investors as


reinvestment requirements are small given the asset-light nature of the
business. At the current market price, the dividend yield for FY15
(dividend of | 5.5/share) was 0.7%. According to the letter bearing
reference no: DO No. 3(4)-B(S)/2007 dated October 5, 2007 issued by the
Department of Economic Affairs, Ministry of Finance, GoI, all profit
making public sector enterprises with a majority holding of GoI are
required to declare a minimum dividend on equity of 20% or a minimum
dividend pay out of 20% of post tax profits, whichever is higher.

Healthy return ratios


The average RoE and RoCE of NBCC during FY10-15 have remained at the
level of 22.1% and 18.2%, respectively, on the back of a strong
bottomline show. Going forward, we expect asset turnover to remain at
the same level as that of FY15. However, we would like to highlight that
we have incorporated equity dilution by | 1000 crore at | 750 per share in
FY16E. Hence, we expect RoE and RoCE to decline in FY16E.
Nonetheless, we expect RoE and RoCE to bounce back from FY17E
onwards on account of expected bottomline growth.

Outlook and Valuation


At the CMP, the stock is trading at 24.8x FY17E P/E and 4.7x FY17E P/BV.
Given the healthy order book in the PMC division and cash rich balance
sheet, NBCCs revenues have grown at a CAGR of 10.6% during FY12-15
despite the challenges being encountered by the industry. Going ahead,
we expect NBCCs next leg of growth to come from redevelopment of
government properties in Delhi. Hence, we anticipate NBCCs revenues
and net profit will grow at a sturdy CAGR of 44.6% and 41.5%,
respectively, during FY15-17E. We also like NBCC due to its cash rich
balance sheet and healthy return ratio profile.
We have valued NBCCs PMC business & redevelopment business on the
DCF based methodology to capture the long term opportunities in each
business. We have considered cost of equity of 12.7% for the PMC
business and 14% for the redevelopment space. We have also rolled over
our valuation to FY17E and considered a terminal growth rate of 4% for
both businesses. Based on these assumptions, we have valued NBCCs
PMC business at | 451/share and re-development opportunities at
| 589/share. The real estate business has been valued at | 90/share (at 1x
FY16 P/BV) while the EPC business has been valued at | 20.4/share (6x
FY17EV/EBIT). Overall, we ascribe target price of | 1150/share for NBCC
based on SOTP methodology.
