COMPILED ANALYSIS OF YESTERDAY'S RESULTS : Haitong

ITC (ITC IN, CMP Rs 250, SELL): Q1FY17 – A mixed bag

·         ITC reported Q1FY17 Net sales/ EBITDA/ Adj. Pat growth of 9.7%/8.2%/10.1% with cigarettes volumes for the quarter growing 3% YoY (vs an expectations of 2% growth).
·         Cigarette EBIT growth for the quarter however was below estimates with a growth of 8% YoY (estimate of 11% YoY growth).
·         While FMCG business growth showed improvement to 9.5% (5.6% in Q4), business also reported a reduction in loss YoY. Most other businesses were lacklustre in performance with Agri and Paper & paperboard reporting a 1.5%/(2.7%) YoY EBIT growth respectively.
·         While we expect an improvement in volume/ EBIT growth for the cigarettes business over FY16-18, we believe current valuations at 28x/25x FY17/FY18 earnings fully capture in the expected recovery.
·         Risks on account of impending GST as well as other regulatory interventions (including the impact of larger graphic health warnings covering 85% of the cigarette packs) provide a downward risk to consensus earnings estimates.
·         We have a SELL rating on the stock.
Zensar Q1FY17 First Look: Revenue misses estimate but margins beat
·         Quarter results: Zensar reported $ revenue of $114M, up 3.1% QoQ and 2.6% in cc. This was below our estimate of $118M. AMS grew 4.5% in cc while IMS was a drag on revenue, down 3.4% QoQ.
·         Geography and verticals: Africa drove the growth for the quarter, up 9.7% QoQ in cc, while US was a drag and declined 0.6%. Among the verticals, growth was led by manufacturing (up 3.5%) and Retail CPG (up 3.5%) while FSI was down 0.8% QoQ
·         Margins beats estimate: Margins came ahead of our estimate despite the revenue growth miss. The company reported an EBITDA margin of 14% and EBIT margin of 12.7%, ahead of our estimate of 13.6% and 12% respectively.
·         Digital services contributed 27.3% to the overall revenue, vs. 27% in FY16.
·         PAT was largely in line with our estimate supported by better than expected margins despite the lower than expected revenue growth.
·         Zensar reported a slower than expected revenue, however given the results of IT companies in Q1 so far, a 3.1% USD revenue growth is positive. The company delivered superior result on margin and PAT despite the miss on revenue. On the earnings call, we would be looking for management's commentary on update on the initiatives taken by the new CEO, any impact due to Brexit and color on revenue growth for FY17.
