Vardhman Textiles (VTEX) sales, EBITDA and net income grew 18%, 51% and 103% YoY respectively during Q4FY13 while sequential growth was reported at 5%, 19% and 38% respectively.
The Company's top-line grew 18.1% YoY to Rs. 11,463 mn (our expectations Rs. 11,039 mn) during Q4FY13, while sequential growth was registered at 4.9%. Yarn sales grew 24.2% YoY to Rs. 9,933 mn, while revenue from fabric grew 30.8% YoY to Rs. 4,046 mn during the quarter.
VTEX's EBITDA registered a growth of 51.3% YoY to Rs. 2,683 mn (our expectations Rs. 2,307 mn), with sequential growth of 18.8%. EBITDA margins for the quarter expanded by 513 bps over a corresponding quarter to 23.4% on the back of better spread on yarn and fabric. India is enjoying competitive edge over China due to cotton price disparity; where procuring cotton is around 10%-15% expensive than India. Net Income for Q4FY13 grew 103.3% YoY to Rs.1,153 mn, while sequential growth was at 37.8%.
Volume & Realizations: Volume for Q4FY13 grew 11%, 15% & 27% YoY for Yarn, Grey fabric and processed fabric respectively while realizations grew ~ 21% for yarn and ~12% for fabric.
VTEX is undergoing capex of Rs. 9.5bn in FY14, adding 230 looms and ~1.4 lac spindles to reach total capacity of 1320 looms and 1.1mn spindles which is expected to start commercial production in two phases from June'13 & Dec'13 onwards. Thus FY15 is likely to witness full benefits of ongoing capex. While 190 looms added during FY13 is likely to push fabric capacity by ~20%.
Outlook & Valuations
We expect VTEX revenue and net income to grow at a CAGR of 13% and 4%, respectively over FY13-15E. We believe VTEX to maintain high profitability for H1FY14 while going forward; China's cotton policy and coming cotton season would be crucial. At CMP of Rs. 277, the stock trades at the multiple of 4.6x and 3.9x FY15E earnings and EV/EBITDA respectively. We maintain our "BUY" recommendation and target price of Rs. 335 per share, valuing at 5.5x FY15E EPS, having an upside potential of 21%.
