Quarter read
What the record says.
M&M reported a strong Q1 FY24 with consolidated PAT of INR 3,508 crore, up 60% YoY, driven by robust auto and farm performance. Auto revenue market share surged 310 bps YoY in SUVs and 480 bps in LCVs, while farm PAT grew 21% to INR 1,198 crore. The company highlighted enhanced capital allocation discipline, including a INR 417 crore investment in RBL Bank for long-term strategic optionality in financial services. Management reiterated a 15-20% EPS growth target and 18% ROE threshold. Key risks include potential semiconductor disruptions, Tech Mahindra's turnaround timeline, and farm sector volatility due to monsoon dependency.
Colored figures show movement against the previous available record.
Guidance to track
- Management confirmed that production capacity will increase to 39,000 units per month by the end of Q4 FY24, with current production already at that level.
- Management reiterated a long-term EPS growth target of 15-20%, despite a strong 60% growth in Q1.
- Management committed to maintaining an ROE of at least 18%, with current ROE at 24%.
- Management expressed confidence in achieving at least 40% growth in farm machinery revenue for the full year.
Risks flagged
- Management cautioned that semiconductor issues could resurface, potentially impacting production volumes.
- Tech Mahindra reported its worst quarter ever, and management acknowledged it will take 2-3 years to fix, posing a drag on consolidated earnings.
- Analysts raised concerns about the lack of immediate tangible benefits from the RBL Bank investment, with management citing a long-term optionality that may not materialize.
- Management noted difficulty in forecasting tractor demand due to monsoon variability and base effects, with potential downside if rains disappoint.
Key quotes
- Our capital allocation discipline has not changed. In fact, it's become even stronger.
- We will not invest auto and farm cash flow into services.
- The worst quarter ever for Tech Mahindra... it will take time. It's not going to show results immediately.
