Hero MotoCorp | 2QFY2016 Result Update
Volumes remained under pressure, declining for the fourth consecutive
quarter. Slowdown in the rural segment due to deficient rainfall and owing to
only a moderate increase in Minimum Support Prices (MSPs) for crops, hurt the
company’s volumes. HMCL lost market share by 230bp yoy, primarily due to
production adjustments, before new model launches, in the scooter segment.
Realisation/vehicle grew 6% yoy to `43,414 and was better than our estimate
of `42,267 on account of better product mix, price hikes and increased
proportion of spares. Contribution/vehicle, at `13,785, grew 5.8% qoq and
was slightly ahead of our estimate. Subdued commodity prices and raw
material cost savings under the margin improvement program boosted gross
margins.
The share of scooters in the overall mix declined marginally to 11% as the
company made production adjustments prior to the launch of two new
scooters (Maestro Edge and Duet).

EBIDTA margin, at 15.8%, improved strongly by 230bp yoy, led by subdued
commodity prices and cost control initiatives undertaken by the company
under the margin improvement program - “Leap”.
A robust operating performance boosted the bottom-line. The Adjusted Net

Conference call - Key highlights
The two-wheeler industry continues to remain sluggish owing to weak rural
sentiments. Rural areas contribute by about 40-45% to the industry’s overall
sales. Deficient rainfall and only a moderate increase in MSPs has hurt the
rural economy, and in turn, demand for two-wheelers. HMCL expects the two-
wheeler industry to recover from 2HFY2016 given the onset of the festive
season and a gradual pick up in the rural demand.
HMCL’s margin improvement program - “Leap” has been running successfully
and the same has enabled towards considerable cost savings. HMCL realized
benefits of `169cr and `329cr in FY2014 and FY2015 respectively. Further,
HMCL realized `60cr benefits in 1HFY2016 and aims to garner benefits to the
tune of `200cr in FY2016.
To tap the festive demand, HMCL has introduced three new products, which
include Splendor Pro in the bike space and Maestro Edge and Duet in the
scooter space.
HMCL expects commodity prices to remain soft in the near term.
HMCL has commenced operations at its Colombian plant under the CKD
format. Currently, the plant assembles about 3,000 units/month and aims to
increase the volumes to about 4,000 units/month by the end of FY2016.
On the export front, HMCL aims to sell 250,000 units in FY2016, implying a
growth of 25% yoy; and aims to enter major export markets of Nigeria,
Argentina and Mexico, going forward.
As per the Management, margins are expected to come down in 2HFY2016,
given the incurrence of higher advertising and marketing spends. HMCL has
October 23, 2015

Hero MotoCorp | 2QFY2016 Result Update
given an overall margin guidance of 15% for FY2016 as against 15.5%
margin achieved in 1HFY2016.
Given the slowdown in the two-wheeler industry, HMCL has delayed its
capacity expansion plans. The new Gujarat plant will commence production
from 2QFY2017 and will have an initial capacity of 750,000 units as against
1200,000 planned earlier. The plant would reach production level of 1.2mn
units only by the end of FY2017.

Hero MotoCorp | 2QFY2016 Result Update
Investment arguments
Expect demand to recover from 2HFY2016: We expect demand to recover
from 2HFY2016 on account of the festive season, gradual recovery in the rural
economy, reduction in interest rates and new product launches scheduled by
the company. Further, HMCL is entering new export geographies which would
enhance volumes, going ahead. We expect the company to register a positive
volume growth from 2HFY2016 onwards, as compared to demand decline in
the last four quarters.
Capacity expansion to meet future increase in demand: HMCL has a current
installed capacity of
7.65mn units across its four plants in Haridwar,
Dharuhera, Gurgaon and Neemrana. The company is setting up a new plant
in Gujarat (1.8mn units) and would further increase capacity at Neemrana
plant (by ~0.5mn units) which would come on stream in FY2017, thus taking
the overall capacity to 9.9mn units. As a result of capacity expansion, HMCL
remains well-poised to meet increase in demand, going ahead.
Outlook and valuation
HMCL’s volumes are likely to be subdued in the near term, given the poor
sentiments in rural areas, which account for about half of the company’s sales.
Deficient rainfall for a second consecutive year, and only a moderate increase in
the MSPs, have impacted rural income levels, and in turn rural demand. Given the
demand weakness, the company has also delayed its capacity expansion plans by
two quarters. We believe, in the domestic two-wheeler universe, HMCL is likely to
be most impacted by the rural slowdown, given that rural demand accounts for a
higher proportion of HMCL’s overall sales, vis-a- vis competition. Also, the
margins are likely to decline in 2HFY2016, given the increase in advertising and
branding expenses. We have broadly retained our earnings estimates for both
FY2016 and FY2017. We continue to maintain a Neutral view on the stock.
