Share India recommends BUY Trident Ltd for a target of Rs 150

Share India Securities Ltd, a leading knowledge and technology driven stock broker, recommends buying Trident Ltd shares for a target of Rs 150 in the next 1 year.

 Share India says “Trident reported its Q2 FY18 results which were in line with our expectations given GST teething problems and implementation issues for the same. The revenue was flat y-o-y at INR 11,549mn (vs. 11,600mn in Q2) – without any excise duty effect. On a segment basis the revenue for both Textile and Paper business was flat. PAT was however, below our expectations with reported figure at INR 493.9mn (vs. our expectation of INR 756mn). The drop in PAT was mostly due to higher COGS which led to lower gross margin.

The textile business which has significant geographic dispersion was majorly impacted with segment profit dropping approximately 40% y-o-y for Q2 FY18. Trident also saw considerable increase in trade receivable (up 20% 6M FY18) and drop in inventories (down 30% 6M FY18).

We attribute increase in raw material prices and sudden change in working capital policies entirely to GST and maintain long term positive for Trident. Tridents performance on all other parameters was in line with our expectations including drop in financial borrowings and healthy balance sheet ratios.

We maintain buy on Trident and keep constant FY18E EPS of INR 8 and maintain TP 150.

Trident is set to benefit from multiple factors – rising share of India in global textile exports and expanding share of high margin products like bed linen/copier paper and higher backward integration.

We estimate sales CAGR of 10% over FY18-20E and PAT CAGR of 25% over FY18-20E, with improving RoE to 20% in FY20. We value Trident at 15x FY19E EPS (owing to high operating cash flows and premium product mix) of INR 10, arriving at a TP of INR150.

We initiate coverage with BUY. Trident Ltd's operations are segregated into four main segments viz. yarns, terry towels, paper and chemicals. The product offering of the company includes yarns segment: 100% cotton yarn (Grey/Dyed/Mercerized), Single & TFO Doubled, Hosiery & Weaving (Combed & Carded), etc. Terry towels: Piece-dyed dobbies, yarn-dyed single and double jacquards, uni-dyed jacquards, etc. Paper segment: Spectra copier - ultra-finish, highspeed Copier Paper, goldline surface swize maplitho, etc”
