Key Investment Rationale:

  • The company plans to invest Rs 350 crore to double its alcohol manufacturing capacity over the next nine months, as it seeks to gain from the government’s push for ethanol blending in petrol.

  • Company’s new distillery with capacity of 160 KLPD and grain based distillery of 60 KLPD are expected to be commissioned in Q4FY22 with a total estimated capex of Rs 250 Crore. Other expansions of distillery capacity, that will increase the total capacity to 660 KLPD from current capacity of 320 KLPD, will be commissioned in Q3FY23.

  • Distillery segment revenue is increased at a CAGR of 34% from FY17-21 with its contribution in total revenue increased from 5.1% in FY17 to 10.7% in FY21 and further 21% in H1FY22. The company expects that revenue from its distillery segment will increase to about Rs 1,500 Cr. Annually once total capacity of distillery increased to 660 KLPD by Q3FY23

  • Ethanol blending with petrol has touched 8.1 per cent in the 2020-21 marketing year (December-November) and is expected to reach 10 per cent in the next year and 20 per cent blending target by 2025. Govt. hiked the price of ethanol extracted from sugarcane for blending in petrol by up to Rs 1.47 per litre for 2021-22 marketing year ( December- November) starting December which would help the company to expand its margins.

  • The company signed a 10-year business agreement with GEAE Technology USA to locally manufacture the LM2500 gas turbine base and enclosure. Over the next years, the growth in revenue of the company will be aided more by its engineering businesses

Outlook:

Triveni Engineering & Industries Ltd. Is one of the largest integrated Sugar manufacturers in India and also emerged as the market leader in high-speed industrial gears and gearboxes. The sugar industry witnessed significant reduction in sugar inventory in the last one year, which along with the increasing sugarcane diversion towards ethanol is leading to increase in sugar prices. Sugar companies like Triveni has been largely benefiting from relatively better sugarcane availability in 2020-21 sugar season, ramping up of ethanol capacities & higher domestic sugar prices. On performance front we expect company to report EPS of Rs.17.01 for FY23E, at CMP of Rs.218 PE works out to be 12.81x. Hence, investors can buy the stock at CMP of Rs.218 for target price of Rs.275. Time frame should be 9-12months.

Indian Sugar Industry and Outlook for Season 2021-2022:

Sugar production for the season 2020-21 was around 311.81 lakh tones with  domestic sales of around 265.55 lakh tonnes and exports of around 70.72 lakh tonnes during the season. Approximately 20 lakh tonnes of sugar were diverted for ethanol production in 2020-21.

In July 2021, Indian Sugar Mills Association (ISMA) had released its preliminary estimates of net sugar production at 310 lakh tonnes for 2021-22 SS (Sugar Season). This was estimated after considering a diversion of 34 lakh tonnes of sugar for production of Ethanol using B heavy molasses / juice / syrup.

The Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs (CCEA), headed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, raised the price of ethanol extracted from sugarcane juice to Rs. 63.45 per litre from the current Rs. 62.65 per litre for the supply year beginning December 2021.

Domestic sugar prices rose to around Rs 34,000-36,000 per tonne in August-September 2021 after three years following sharp increase in global prices as well as onset of the festive season. Sugar prices expected to remain firm above Rs. 36,000 per tonne for the rest of FY22.

The international raw sugar prices firmed up to USD 420-440 per tonne in August-September 2021 compared to USD 270-280 per tonne in August-September 2020 in the anticipation of decline in Brazilian sugar production and thus, balanced global supply position.

In light of surged global sugar prices, the export prospects look promising for the upcoming sugar season even if export policy isn’t announced. The government has set a target of 20% ethanol blending by 2025. Along with the ENA and rectified sprit, total distillery demand is likely to be 1350 crore litre by 2025-26. The government is also encouraging usage of flex fuel vehicles (can run on both petrol & ethanol).

On the back of favourable pricing environments domestically and globally as well as increased share of ethanol in revenue mix, the revenues of a sample of sugar companies are expected to grow by 5-7 per cent in FY22 on a year-on-year basis.
