Specialty Chemicals

Incorporated in 1984, Aarti Industries Limited (AIL) is the largest producer of benzene based derivatives in India and has a global footprint with presence in 60 countries. AIL possesses 17 integrated plants located on the western belt of India enjoying easy procurement of raw materials, manufacturing more than 125 products. Over the years, AIL has gradually developed its core competencies in various chemical processes and reactions, thus evolving into an integrated (backward and forward) specialty chemicals manufacturing company. AIL ranks between the global first and fourth position for 75% of its product portfolio. AIL’s products are used in manufacturing of agrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, polymers & additives, dyes & pigments, fuel additives, rubber chemicals, surfactants and so on. Recently, the Company expanded its product portfolio by entering into toluene value chain coupled with other expansion plans (including Greenfield chlorination complex, calcium chloride unit, PDA & Ethylene derivatives) and two multiyear deals. Going forward, the specialty chemicals industry in India is expected to grow at 14% over FY17-FY20E scaling to USD 54 bn. We believe favorable macro outlook combined with AIL’s expansion plans should fuel future growth and consequently, we estimate revenues for the company to witness 16.1% CAGR over FY17-FY20E. Industry in a sweet spot: Specialty chemicals segment is a margin lucrative high value and low volume game industry and these chemicals are used in manufacturing of dyes and pigments, agrochemicals, flavours and fragrances, personal care products, paints & coatings, construction chemicals, water treatment chemicals and so on. India’s market size of specialty chemicals stood at ~USD 36 bn in FY17 accounting for ~3% of the total global specialty chemical industry and has been growing at 13.5% CAGR over FY10-FY17. In terms of manufacturing, many multi-national companies have increased their focus in Asia owing to stricter environmental norms in the Western countries. Further, over the last couple of years, tightening pollution control policies in China has led to many plant shutdowns resulting into sluggish production growth in China. Consequently, there has been a structural shift in the industry globally with India emerging as one of the manufacturing hubs. Lower production costs and easy raw material availability make India as one of the attractive spots for investment activity by MNC’s and domestic manufacturers. We believe that higher export demand and surge in domestic demand owing to increasing disposable incomes, higher infrastructure activities and overall growth of rural economy should result into robust and sustainable growth for specialty chemicals industry in India. Owing to the aforementioned reasons, it is expected that the specialty chemicals market should maintain its growth rate and deliver ~14% CAGR over FY17FY20E as against 7.4% CAGR for the entire Indian chemical industry over the same period. In terms of major segments, Agrochem/dyes & pigments/polymers & additives are expected to witness 12%/13%/12% CAGR over FY17-FY20E. Further, it is expected that the share of Indian specialty chemical industry should increase to 5% of the global specialty chemical market at USD 54 bn by FY20E.

Consequently, the company is globally ranked from first to fourth position for majority of its products (75% of its portfolio) and enjoys a global market share of 25-40% across various products. With company’s de-risked portfolio of multiple products, AIL has strategically entered into margin lucrative specialty products and high value knowledge based industries. Due to process driven products and fungibility of plants, AIL could cater different industries enabling higher customization and value maximization in changing market dynamics. Going forward, AIL is set on its path to value creation by further capex plans to capture the market with its wide product portfolio. Accordingly, the company plans to augment its overall capacity by expanding its chlorination and PDA plant, setting up of Nitro Toluene and Ethylation unit as mentioned in the table below.

Aarti Industries Ltd. Recent Projects – Multiyear deals 1.

During H1FY18, the company signed a deal with MNC to provide intermediate for agrochemical industry with foreseeable revenue potential of INR 40,000 mn spread over 10 year period. Further, the company plans to incur capex of INR 1,000 mn for the said project with a dedicated plant expected to commission by H2FY20E.

2.

AIL also signed another deal of INR 1,00,000 mn with a global chemical conglomerate to supply high value specialty chemical intermediate over a period of 20 years. AIL plans to set up a dedicated manufacturing facility for production of the said intermediate. For this, the customer has agreed to provide AIL with USD 42 mn as advance to be paid in installments which, later, shall be adjusted against the supplies.

With Indian specialty chemicals market being in a sweet spot, AIL is poised to be one of the biggest beneficiaries of the favorable market scenario. Further, AIL has been addressing regulated markets directly or indirectly with its presence in generics. The Indian pharmaceutical market holds 20% of the global exports in generics which accounts for USD 26 bn as on FY16. The contribution from the said segment has been increasing gradually and currently accounts for ~14% of the total revenue vis-a-vis ~9% in FY13. Going forward, we expect the pharma industry to witness a turnaround on account of higher drugs going off-patent and increase in unmet medical needs and expect the industry to deliver 12% CAGR over FY17-FY20E. Assuming peak utilizations in four years time coupled with sturdy demand scenario, we expect capacity addition plans to facilitate higher volumes over FY18E-FY20E and consequently, we estimate revenues to grow from INR 31635 mn to INR 49524 mn at 16%.

Surge in crude oil prices to remain as an overhang: AIL is a benzene based specialty chemical company with benzene accounting for ~ 30% of overall raw material costs. Benzene is a hydrocarbon and is extracted from crude oil resulting into their global prices moving in tandem. The company adopts cost plus pricing for its various products resulting into mitigation of risk with respect to volatility in raw material prices. However, margins for the company appear optically enhanced in a declining crude oil price scenario owing to base effect. Consequently, gross margins for the company has improved from 36% to 44.89% over FY14-FY17 due to the sharp correction of crude oil prices while gross profit grew by 14.4% over the same period. Since the business is on “pass-on” model, the EBITDA in absolute term does not get affected owing to combination of higher utilization and cost reduction initiatives. Therefore, higher operating leverage and strengthening of product portfolio led to outperformance of EBITDA which witnessed a growth of 17.6% over FY14-FY17. Going forward, we expect crude oil prices to surge over FY18-FY20E translating into reduction of gross margins by 359 bps from 44.89% in FY17 to 41.3% by FY20E. Consequently, we expect EBITDA margins to slip from 20.66% in FY17 to 18.86% in FY20E while estimating absolute EBITDA to grow at 12.6% from INR 6,535 mn to INR 9,339 mn over the same period. Over FY12-FY17, return ratios for the company has gradually improved (avg. ROE/ROCE of 20%/18.3%) coupled with average net debt/equity of 1.04x. Going ahead, we expect total capex to the tune of INR 17,500 mn over FY18-FY20E while total FCFF generation of INR 2794 mn over the same period. Accordingly, we estimate the total debt of the company to increase by INR 3,500 mn over FY17-FY20E from INR 14,357 mn to INR 17,857 with net debt/equity ratio to improve to 0.7x in FY20E from 1.03x in FY17. Going ahead, we expect PAT to grow at 14% CAGR from INR 3,158 mn in FY17 to INR 4,7132 mn in FY20E with PAT margins at 9.55% on account of sustained interest costs. We estimate ROCE/ROE to witness minor setback touching 18%/19% in FY20E from 19%/23% currently.

Aarti Industries Ltd. Valuations and Outlook: Aarti Industries Limited (AIL) commenced operations at Gujarat with capacity of 1200 TPA of Nitro Chloro Benzenes (NCBs) in 1986 and currently stands as a global supplier of various specialty chemicals and pharmaceuticals products. Since inception, AIL has developed its expertise in benzene based specialty chemicals enabling it to widen its portfolio with more value added products. Over the years, AIL has evolved as an integrated (backward & forward) player manufacturing more than 125 products through various processes like chlorination, nitration, ammonolysis, hydrogenation and halex chemistry. Accordingly, it is globally ranked from first to fourth position for majority of its products (75% of its portfolio) and enjoys a global market share of 25-40% across various products. The company caters to more than 650 customers spread across 60 countries including BASF, Syngenta, UPL, Solvay, Huntsman, Dupont, Sudarshan Atul, Clariant, Hindustan Unilever, Pfizer, Dr. Reddys, Sun Pharma, and Lupin among others with no customer contributing more than 9% of its total revenue. The company’s products are used in downstream manufacture of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, dyes & pigments, polymers & additives, fuel additive, rubber chemicals, surfactants and so on catering B2B customers. AIL derives revenues from various segments like specialty chemicals (~81.2%), pharmaceuticals (~13.5%) and home & personal care (~5.3%) Industry estimates suggest that Indian specialty chemicals segment is expected to increase to USD 54 bn by FY20E from USD 28 bn in FY15 translating into a CAGR of 13.6% representing 5% of the global specialty chemicals. The primary factors attributing to the said growth include 1) favourable macro factors leading to growth in Indian economy; 2) tightening pollution control norms in China leading to subsequent capacity shut downs; 3) burgeoning demand from end user sub sectors like agrochemicals, colourants, polymer additives, paints & coatings, surfactants, personal care ingredients and; 4) growing disposable income along with increasing urbanization. We believe, going ahead, AILs growth plan to develop toluene based specialty chemicals (30,000 MTPA) and ethylene derivatives (~9,000 MTPA) coupled with other expansion plans in its core business (Chlorination, PDA, Calcium Chloride) and presence in upcoming end user markets (domestically as well as internationally) will aid the company to capitalize on the said opportunities and emerge as a dominant player. Going forward, we expect the pharma industry to witness a turnaround on account of higher drugs going off-patent and increase in unmet medical needs and expect the industry to deliver 12% CAGR over FY17-FY20E. Consequently, we expect revenues for the company to grow at 16% from INR 31,635 mn to INR 49,524 mn Over FY17-20E. Additionally, the Company has entered into 2 multi year deal that is expected to generate a revenue of INR 40,000 mn and INR 1,00,000 mn spread equally over 10 years and 20 years respectively. We believe, this will further boost the company’s topline with enhanced return ratios and provide longevity in terms of revenue visibility. Going ahead, we estimate revenue/EBITDA/PAT to grow at 16%/13%/14% over FY17-FY20E. Further, we factor in a total capex of INR 17,500 mn over FY18-FY20E for the said capacity addition plans. We expect the company to fund the same partially through debt and partially through internal accruals. Accordingly, we expect the total debt of the company to increase by INR 3,500 mn from INR 16,357 mn to INR 17,857 mn over FY18-FY20E with net debt/equity ratio to improve to 0.7x by FY20. Consequently we estimate return ratios to observe a drop in FY20E with ROCE/ROE to reach 18%/19% by FY20E on account of ongoing capex plans. The Company currently trades at two year forward P/E multiple of 20x. Going forward, we believe AIL should fetch premium valuations on account of 1) higher volumes aided by capacity addition plans; 2) bolstering demand from end user segments; 3) higher revenue visibility owing to multi-year deals; and 4) steady balance sheet despite higher capital requirements. Accordingly, we value the Company at a P/E multiple of 25x on FY20E and arrive at a target price of INR 1,455/share resulting into an upside of 27.6% from the CMP of INR 1,140/share. We assign a “BUY” rating on the stock.
