ITC posted a poor set of numbers for 3QFY2016, both on the top-line and

bottom-line fronts. The top-line was subdued due to lower growth in Cigarettes &
Hotel businesses and de-growth in Agri business, which in turn resulted in a lower

ITC | 3QFY2016 Result Update
Investment rationale
Cigarettes business to enjoy strong pricing power: We believe ITC’s cigarette
business is well poised to continue to post a healthy profit growth over
FY2015-17E due to its strong pricing power and improvement in volume
growth.
Non-cigarette businesses to register healthy growth in FY2015-17E: While
cigarettes remain the main profit center for the company, investments in
the non-cigarettes businesses such as FMCG, Hotels and Paperboards have
given the company a foothold in the respective businesses. We expect these
businesses to play a major role in driving the company’s long-term growth.
Outlook and valuation
We expect ITC to report a top-line and bottom-line CAGR of 4.5% and 5.0%
respectively over FY2015-18E. At the current market price, the stock is trading at
22.2x FY2018E EPS. We recommend a Buy on the stock with a target price of
`360.
Company Background
ITC is a diversified conglomerate, present across various categories - Cigarettes
(41% of revenue); Hotels (3% of revenue); Paperboards and Packaging (13% of
revenue); Agri-business (22% of revenue); and other FMCG (branded apparel,
personal care, stationery, safety matches and specialty papers [21% of revenue]).
Although ITC is a market leader in the cigarettes category, it is rapidly gaining
market share even in its evolving businesses of packaged foods and confectionery,
branded apparel, personal care and stationery.
