 Order pipeline moderates, but remains stable

We believe Thermax Ltd is a key beneficiary of the government's increasing thrust on clean energy and decarbonisation initiatives, as well as visibility on private capex. Company's strengths are in its technical expertise, strong balance sheet and prudent working capital management. Order inflow continues to be strong as seen from the 97% / 22% YoY growth in FY22 / H1FY23, led by both base and large orders from inter alia refinery, steel, cement and FGD sectors. However, going ahead, with enquiry pipeline plateauing in the large-order space (mainly from refineries), growth is likely to be driven by base orders from steel, sponge iron, cement (waste heat recovery), biomass energy, and sugar industries among others. We believe, with increasing share of the base business, execution momentum is likely to sustain. We expect a revenue CAGR of 19% over FY22- FY25E. EBITDA margin for H1FY23 stood at 6.3%, which we believe is likely to gradually improve on the back of: 1) higher execution, 2) lower commodity prices, and 3) easing of supply-chain challenges. Increased focus on the spares & services business is likely to help further improvement in margins. Current orderbook stands at a robust Rs95bn (1.3x TTM sales). We upgrade our rating to BUY (from Add), due to the recent correction in the stock price, while we maintain our target price of Rs2,480 (implied P/E 45x FY25E).
