2. Market Outlook | India Research
Sun TV Network - Initiating Coverage
Sun TV Network (STNL) is a leader in 3 out of the 4 lucrative southern TV markets through
its bouquet of 20 channels across genres. We have modeled in 23.5%, 24.9% and 25.3%
CAGR in top-line, core EBIT (post amortisation) and earnings respectively, for STNL, over
FY2010-12E. We also estimate STNL's cash balance to swell to a whopping Rs10bn
(~Rs33 per share) in FY2012E. At Rs402, the stock is trading at 19.4x FY2012E Earnings.
We initiate coverage on the stock with a Buy recommendation and Target Price of Rs497
based on 24x P/E FY2012E EPS.
STNL ad revenues to outpace regional ad growth, we peg 19% CAGR: During FY2010-
12E, we expect STNL's standalone Ad revenues to register 19.3% CAGR, ahead of the
13.9% CAGR estimated in Regional advertising during the period, driven by:1) absorption
of rate hikes (ad rates hiked 5-33% across channels),
2) increased traction in niche Kids/Comedy channels, and 3) strong management focus on
utilising inventory during off-peak hours and new weekend programming.
Multiple levers led by DTH to aid 37% CAGR in Subscription Revenues: During FY2010-
12E, we expect STNL to register a robust 37% CAGR in overall Subscription revenues aided
by: 1) strong 58% CAGR in DTH revenues on the back of 28% CAGR in DTH subscribers
and rise in ARPUs to Rs40, and 2) 20% CAGR in Analogue revenues aided by restructuring
of distribution business and Malayalam channels (Surya TV, Kiran TV) turning pay, effective
from April 1, 2010.
Radio losses to reduce, Endhiran the wild card in FY2011E FY2011E: Beyond
broadcasting, we believe reduction in operating losses aided by revenue traction and cost
curtailment in Radio subsidiaries, Kal and SAFM (we have modeled in near breakeven in
FY2012E at operating level) and contribution from big budget movie, Endhiran (slated for
release in 2HFY2011E, we have factored in Rs175cr revenue from movie
distribution/production in FY2011E and 20-25% EBIT Margins from Endhiran) will be the
key factors to watch out for.
Concor - Management Meet Update
We recently met Concor management to get an update on the Exim segment and margin
outlook. Management has indicated that export volumes continue to remain lackluster,
thereby driving empty running. The company has given modest Exim volume guidance of
10–12% in FY2011E, largely driven by low base in 1HFY2011 and higher imports. Concor
has registered moderate 9–10% yoy Exim volume growth for the first two months of
FY2011 in spite of 21% yoy growth at major ports. On other hand, it has guided 12–15%
domestic volume growth with increased focus and strong revival in domestic consumption.
Management has indicated operating margins to remain range-bound in FY2011E.
Further, management has stated that talks about IR increasing haulage charges on certain
routes could come through in the near term. However, we expect a 50bp decline in OPM
in FY2011E on account of increased contribution from low-margin domestic business and
higher empties in 1HFY2011.
We estimate Concor to post muted earnings CAGR of 10.1% over FY2010–12E, as against
a 17.6% CAGR registered during FY2005–09. At the current market price, Concor is
trading at 18.0x FY2012E earnings, which is at the higher end of its historical P/E band
and at 12.2x FY2012E EV/EBITDA. We maintain our Reduce rating on stock with a Target
Price of Rs1,194.

Indraprastha Gas - Company Update
The hike in CNG prices have eliminated key headwinds for IGL viz. expected margin
contraction and reduction in earnings and return ratios, to a large extent. Relative ease in
pass through of the APM gas price hike indicates absence of regulatory risks in the near
term. This coupled with strong CNG conversions and growth in newer geographies would
result in strong earnings growth and re-rating of the stock. We revise our target price on
the stock to Rs301 (Rs210) owing to the upward revision in earnings estimates and lower
WACC estimates (to reflect lower risk). We upgrade the stock to Buy from Reduce earlier.
Margin erosion risk subsides: We had concerns over sustainability of IGL's high margins,
which we believed were fueled by lower gas costs (subsidised gas). Also, post end of
marketing exclusivity in CY2011 we believed a level playing field would emerge and IGL
would have to source gas at higher prices in turn squeezing its marketing margins.
However, with the hike in CNG prices, our assumption of margin fall no longer holds
good. It also points at the absence of regulatory risks in the near term. Going ahead, given
that KG-D6 and APM gas prices are freezed till FY2014, IGL would not be required to
make significant CNG price hikes. Thus, the margin erosion risk has subsided
substantially.
Volumes to propel profitability: We expect strong growth in CNG conversion in IGL's area
of operation driven by discretionary CNG demand due to better economics. This coupled
with strong growth expected in the domestic PNG segment is likely to drive the company's
volume growth going ahead. We expect CNG and PNG volumes to register a CAGR of
14.4% and 36.2% over FY2010-12E respectively, resulting in overall volumes CAGR of
16.9% during the mentioned period. Thus, strong volume growth coupled with stable
EBDITA/scm are likely to drive the company’s profitability (CAGR of 17.5% over FY2010-
12E) going ahead.
Shoppers’ Stop announces expansion plans
With consumer sentiment picking up in the lifestyle retailing segment, Shoppers’ Stop Ltd.
is back on its expansion mode, which we believe will bode well for the company going
ahead. SSL announced its plans to invest Rs100cr–120cr to open 12 more Shoppers’ Stop
outlets and four Hypercity stores in FY2011. The company is also planning to spend
Rs125cr on picking up an additional 32% stake in Hypercity, to have a majority stake of
51% by June 30, 2010. Shoppers’ Stop currently holds 19% stake in Hypercity. Moreover,
the company is planning to handover Crossword business to Crossword Bookstores Ltd., a
wholly owned subsidiary of the company. The company has plans to raise Rs300cr through
a qualified institutional placement (QIP) over the next two quarters. We maintain our
Neutral view on the stock.
