Results Review INDIA TELECOM 28 January 2015 HOLD Idea Cellular TP: INR 160.00 3.6% IDEA IN Secular data growth continues – upgrade to HOLD Idea reported better-than-expected Q3FY15 results, with revenues up 5.9% QoQ on 19%/5% data/voice revenue growth and EBITDA margins expanding 140bps QoQ on lower network costs. While we have been cautious on the REPORT AUTHORS sector given high expectations from voice pricing, these have now moderated. Also, Idea has underperformed the Nifty by 28% and data Rumit Dugar penetration remains a secular growth driver for the company. Upgrade from SELL to HOLD with a Mar’16 TP of Rs 160 (Rs 135 earlier). +91 22 6766 3444 [email protected] Data-led revenue growth: Idea’s Q3 revenues grew 5.9% QoQ, beating RCMLe of 5.2%, with 6.9mn subscriber additions and a 3.7% ARPU QoQ improvement to Rs 182. MOUs increased 1% QoQ to 388 minutes while voice realisations were flat QoQ at 36p/min. The solid 19% QoQ data revenue growth was driven by a 17%/ 1.5% increase in volumes/realisations. EBITDA margins expanded 140bps QoQ to 34.3% on lower network costs. PAT at Rs 7.6bn (+61% YoY) came in slightly ahead estimates (RCMLe: Rs 7.4bn). Karan Taurani Debt to go up in upcoming auctions: With capital raised via a QIP, Idea’s net debt has declined to Rs 120bn from Rs 128bn in Q2FY15, implying a 1.12x net-debt/ EBITDA (FY15) multiple. However, we think the company will have to continue investments in expanding its network and acquiring spectrum assets. We note that strong data growth needs Idea to defend its spectrum share in the upcoming auctions, which could lead to high gearing. We estimate outflows of Rs 174bn for the company in the upcoming auctions. INR 166.05 Upgrade to HOLD: Data growth remains strong and with Idea’s strong execution, valuations at 5.6x EV/EBITDA are not expensive. We raise our FY16/FY17 EBITDA estimates by 13% to factor in better margins and data revenues. We have a Mar’16 TP of Rs 160 (rolled over from a Dec’15 TP of Rs 135 earlier) for the stock set at 6.5x FY17E EV/EBITDA. Upcoming spectrum auctions remain a key stock overhang. +91 22 6766 3445 [email protected] PRICE CLOSE (28 Jan 15) MARKET CAP INR 597.4 bln USD 9.7 bln SHARES O/S 3,544.1 mln FREE FLOAT 28.6% 3M AVG DAILY VOLUME/VALUE 4.6 mln / USD 11.6 mln 52 WK HIGH 52 WK LOW INR 178.10 INR 125.10 Financial Highlights Y/E 31 Mar FY13A FY14A FY15E FY16E FY17E Revenue (INR mln) 224,575 265,188 315,795 358,734 397,867 EBITDA (INR mln) 60,044 83,336 105,977 111,496 123,799 Adjusted net profit (INR mln) 10,108 19,677 30,465 26,688 33,702 3.1 5.9 8.5 7.4 9.4 40.5 94.4 43.3 (12.7) 26.3 DPS (INR) 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 ROIC (%) 5.9 7.4 9.1 8.3 10.8 (INR) Adjusted EPS (INR) Adjusted EPS growth (%) Adjusted ROAE (%) 7.4 12.7 16.7 12.6 13.9 Adjusted P/E (x) 54.4 28.0 19.5 22.4 17.7 EV/EBITDA (x) 12.0 8.6 7.5 6.6 5.6 3.8 3.3 2.8 2.4 2.1 P/BV (x) Stock Price Index Price 190 29,400 140 24,400 90 19,400 40 14,400 Source: Company, Bloomberg, RCML Research This report has been prepared by Religare Capital Markets Limited or one of its affiliates.
