Container Corporation of India ‘Concors’ with future growth in DFCs and shift to containers
Logistics: Initiating Coverage 14 July 2014
PhillipCapital (India) Pvt. Ltd.
Container remains attractive cargo, where Concor enjoys near monopoly The CAGR of container traffic handled by Concor since 1992 is 15%. India’s container traffic has a potential CAGR of 10‐14% over the next five years, considering expected GDP growth recovery to 6.0‐7.5%. Substantial incremental demand should come from a shift of general cargo in break bulk to containerized form (as is the case globally). We believe CONCOR is uniquely placed to capitalize on upcoming growth opportunities in container and warehousing. DFCs, DMICDC : Potential game changers Dedicated freight corridors (DFCs) will enhance the market share of railway to carry containers with faster, reliable and competitive service. Container trains will carry almost 4x cargo with speed of ~ 100kpl, thus yielding significant reduction in capital intensity, in turn resulting in better return ratios for operators. Delhi Mumbai Industrial Corridor (DMICDC) along with DFC would create an economic base with globally competitive environment. Concor is setting up around 15 logistic parks ahead of competitors to capture growing trade. Concor ‐ Business model difficult to replicate With its scheduled services between major port traffic centers and its nationwide terminal network, Concor enjoys a significant competitive advantage and economies of scale. It has 63 terminals, 10,413 wagons and is adding 2‐3 terminals and 1,000 wagons every year. The second largest competitor is ~1/10th of size. It’s countrywide network, strong relationships with various intermediaries act as strong entry barriers for other players. The company is spending Rs60bn over FY12‐17 for capacity addition and land acquision to be ready to capture growth opportunities post DFCC. It has also started Concor Air, its air‐cargo division, which will tie up with major airports for cargo handling. No significant threat from private players The government allowed 15 private players to enter containerized transportation in 2007. However, most of them could not develop their business and are finding it difficult to penetrate and acquire significant market share. On the other hand, with its vast network, Concor has been able to reduce empty haulage from 18% to 8% which is significantly lower than ~40% for private players. In fact, Concor has increased its market share from ~74% to ~80% in the last one year and we believe its partial monopoly will continue without affecting its growth rate. Attractive valuation We expect the company’s net profit to increase from Rs 9.8bn in FY14 to Rs 13.6bn in FY16 — at a CAGR of 17.8%. The stock is currently trading at 20.8x FY15 and 17.6x FY16 and at an FY16 EV/EBIDTA of 13.2x. It is debt free and its cash balance stands at Rs 25bn; its ROCE should remain healthy at 19.2% in FY16. We have valued the stock on a DCF basis (to account for aggressive capex to capitalize on container growth after the freight corridors are operational) at Rs 1,587, providing an upside of 28%. We recommend a Buy.

Container trade remains an attractive investment Container Corporation of India (Concor) provides multi‐modal logistic support services and enjoys a near monopoly in handling the nation’s trade in containers through the rail route. Container traffic has remained one of the highest growing cargoes in India historically, with a GDP multiplier of around 1.5‐2x. Concor is uniquely placed to benefit from growing international trade and a shift to containerized cargo from bulk form. The company’s focus in setting up 15 logistics parks and increasing its terminal segment’s revenue should be a major positive development.

India has been seeing a higher growth its container volumes compared to other cargo or commodities. Container traffic mostly belongs to major ports. Only select non‐major/intermediate ports such as Pipavav Port and Adani Port cater to containerized traffic. Most of India’s container cargo moves through gateway ports in north‐west India, accounting for around 65% of the container trade. The share of container cargo as a percentage of total cargo at major ports has increased from 14% in 2004 to 21% in 2014. Apart from normal economic growth, an incremental demand is expected to come from a shift of general cargo from break bulk to containerized form. Again, gradual recovery in global growth (led by high‐income countries) projected by the World Bank is also positive for domestic container trade. Container traffic growth and GDP multiplier

DFCs and DMICDC – changing paradigm The cargo movement by train is more cost competitive than movement by road, particularly for a distance of more than 500kms. However, in India, containers are moved by road even for distance of more than 1,000kms due to poor rail infrastructure. With the development of the Dedicated Freight Corridor Corporation (DFCC) and Delhi Mumbai Industrial Corridor Corporation (DMICC), the growth rate in the container trade could see a structural shift in the coming years. Dedicated Freight Corridors (DFCs) will strengthen India’s rail transport infrastructure to meet expected high future demand for freight movement. The development of DFCs would result in enhancing the market share of rail in freight by providing an efficient, safe, economical, and environment‐friendly option. The main earnings of the railways come from its freight operations, which cross subsidizes its losses on running passenger trains. However, currently, passenger trains are given preference and cargo trains are made to wait due to shortage of tracks. As a result, the average speed of a goods train is ~25kms per hour, which makes trucks a better option for many customers. Railways’ market share in the goods movement of the country has come down to around 30% from 65% in 1987 while the road sector's share has gone up to 60% from 34% in the same period. DFCC will reduce the unit cost of transportation by creating rail infrastructure to carry higher throughput per train. DFCC will provide non‐discriminatory access to freight trains belonging to Indian railways and other qualified operators. Construction of DFCs across the country is the most ambitious project ever conceived by the Indian Railways. Out of six DFCs planned in a phased manner, two corridors (eastern and western) are scheduled to be fully commissioned by FY17‐18. The eastern corridor will run from Ludhiana in Punjab to Dankuni near Kolkata with a length of 1,839kms and the Western corridor will stretch is JNPT near Mumbai to Dadri, Delhi with a length of 1,534kms. The phasing of corridors is synchronized with the existing most‐saturated sections on the Mumbai‐Delhi and Delhi‐ Kolkata rail links. The growth in demand is expected due to an increase in rail share in port‐based container traffic by 35‐40% due to the DFC, and a market share increase in container traffic by Concor through setting up of multi‐modal logistics parks, and a modal shift from road to rail. DMICDC to create global manufacturing and trading hub The Ministry of Commerce and Industries, GOI, is developing an industrial corridor along the western DFC to create an economic base with a globally‐competitive environment and modern infrastructure. Delhi‐Mumbai Industrial Corridor Development Corporation (DMICDC) is an SPV that is based on public‐private partnership (with 49% equity held by GOI and remaining 51% by financial institutions, including 26% by Japanese institutions and 25% combined by HUDCO, IFCL, and LIC. DMICDC, India's most ambitious Infrastructure programme, is developing new industrial cities as "Smart Cities" implementing next‐generation technologies across infrastructure sectors. DMICDC envisages development of infrastructure linkages like power plants, assured water supply, high capacity transportation and logistics facilities as well as softer interventions like skill development programs for employing local people. The programme has been conceptualized in partnership and collaboration with the Government of Japan. In the first phase, seven new industrial cities are being developed.

Business model difficult to replicate Concor’s business is characterized by three distinct activities: inland container depot operator (ICD), container train carrier, and container freight station (CFS) operator. The company also manages ports, air‐cargo complexes, road services, and cold chain. Additionally, it provides hub‐and‐spoke services that involve the linking of road or short‐lead rail‐shuttle services within defined catchment areas to long‐lead point‐to‐point train services. The major revenue contribution is from running container trains earning rail freight income. The cargo mix is predominantly export /import containers accounting ~78% of total container volume.

Network and Infrastructure With its scheduled services between major port traffic centers and its nationwide terminal network, Concor enjoys a significant competitive advantage and economies of scale. Infrastructure base consists of 62 terminals across the country of which 13 are pure exim terminals, 35 are combined container terminals, and 14 are pure domestic terminals. It has a fleet of 11,770 wagons, including 10,413 high‐speed wagons, 18,680 containers, 53 reach stackers, and 14 gantry cranes. Availability of large fleet of rolling stock (especially high‐speed BLC/BLL wagons), specialized container handling equipment, customized owned/leased containers, and fully computerized commercial operations with internet‐based customer and customs interface provide Concor a strong competitive advantage. No significant threat from private players The government allowed 15 private players to enter containerized transportation in 2007. However, most of them could not develop their business and are finding it difficult to penetrate and acquire significant market share. On the other hand, with its vast network, Concor has been able to reduce empty haulage from 18% to 8% and is working on further reducing this to 4%, which is significantly lower than ~40% for private players. In FY14, Concor handled 2.9mn containers (2.4mm exim, 0.5mn domestic) controlling ~80% market. Other market players have only garnered around 20% share despite the opening up of container trains to private players from 2007.

Source: Company The company is well poised to tap new business opportunities arising from potential growth in EXIM container volumes and the likely increases in container traffic due to development of dedicated freight corridors. It has already taken the lead in developing logistics parks along the upcoming DFCs through strategic tie‐ups with central agencies, state governments, road/rail operators, etc. It has already acquired land at around eight places for logistic parks which has been done keeping in mid future requirements. The re‐opening of “hub‐and‐spoke” policy of Indian Railways in FY13 will facilitate development of rail transshipment hubs and help club traffic from various origin points or move it to various destinations from one point. This is expected to generate higher incomes from value‐added activities such as specialized warehousing, packaging, invoicing, etc. Concor is actively working on increasing use of technology for minimizing transaction costs by way of e‐transactions. The company is increasing revenue by diversification and product differentiation. It has started operating air cargo centers at airports. The company has done investment in joint ventures for development of port infrastructure in country which support captive cargo generation. It has also started Concor Air, its air‐cargo division, which will tie up with major airports for cargo handling.

Financials: Strong market outlook We forecast revenues to increase at a CAGR of 18% to Rs 69.1bn over FY14‐16 driven by a 12% CAGR in volume growth. After a change in strategy to attract return cargo, Concor has become more aggressive on domestic volume and reported growth of 17% in FY14. The development of multi‐modal logistic parks is expected to contribute to its domestic business volume growth. The company had 61% container volumes from ports on west coast of India mainly from JNPT (32%). Non major ports, Adani Ports & SEZ and APM terminals, Pipavav contributed to 16% and 14% of container volume respectively in FY14. We have assumed an overall container CAGR of 9.4% to 12.8m TEU over FY14‐16 for country with volumes from major ports showing a CAGR of 4.2%, contributing to 8.1m TEU in FY16. Volumes at non‐major ports driven by high growth at Adani Ports and AMP Terminals, Pipavav are estimated to grow at a CAGR of 20% to 4.7m TEU. We estimate Concor’s domestic business volumes to grow at a CAGR of 13.5% to 0.65m TEU over FY14‐16 with a recovery in the economy and an increase in double stacking of containers resulting in shift to rail from road. Its exim business volumes should see a CAGR of 11.5% to 2.9m TEU over FY14‐16.

The average realization per TEU for the company is mainly a function of market demand and cost‐push by Indian railways. In FY14, the average realization in its domestic business grew by 10% to Rs 22,057 per TEU while it remained flat in its exim business at Rs 16,370 per TEU. We have assumed its domestic and exim realizations increasing at a CAGR of 7% and 3.5% to Rs 25,251 and Rs 17,536 per TEU respectively over FY14‐16. With increased competition and slowdown in the economy, Concor has faced margin pressure — margins fell 510bps to 22.1% in FY14 from 27.2% in FY09. In the same period, in its EXIM business, EBIT margins fell by 540bps to 23.3% from 28.7% and domestic by 400bps to 8.5% from 12.5%. We expect an overall margin recovery of 110bps to 23.2% in FY16 backed by volume growth, higher contribution from handling, and warehousing. Lower volumes had a significant impact on the cost of empty running — this should come down in the future.

developing logistic parks. The company is setting up 15 logistic parks of which three are partially operational, and three more should be operational in FY15. Most of these investments are back‐ended due to purchase of land and high gestation periods. For example, its terminal at Khatuwas, Rajasthan, is spread over 280 acres of which 40 acres will be developed for Inland Container depot (ICD) and 80 acres for a domestic terminal; the rest will be available for warehousing and future developemnt.

Valuations: Growth with stability Concor’s rapid expansion (with increase in container‐handling capacity and setting up of multi‐modal logistic parks) makes it an exciting play on container growth. We believe the company is set for a re‐rating with a change in its business mix and demonstration of leadership position in a challenging environment. It has been able to gain market share consistently in spite of the entry of private players, thereby appeasing investors’ concerns. Its strong presence in one of the highest growth cargo segments guarantees volume growth going ahead. It remains financially robust with no debt and an annual cash flow of ~Rs 14bn per annum, which provides the company with a strong competitive edge. Our DCF‐based fair valuation for the company is at Rs 1,587 per share (EV of Rs 283bn). We believe DCF is a better valuation method vs. historical PE and EV/EBITDA, considering the expected change in revenue mix with development of logistic parks and aggressive capacity expansion. The major benefit of ~Rs 36bn expenditure in logistic parks and development of DFCC should start materializing from FY17. The company is expecting more than 15% IRR from investment in Logistic Parks. We believe the logistic parks (assumed 15 operational) once fully developed has revenue potential of ~Rs30bn and profit of ~Rs5.4bn. The valuation is based on the following assumptions: WACC derived from cost of equity of 11.5%. Equity risk premium of 2.5% and
effective tax rate of 23%. Perpetual growth rate of 4% in EBITDA from FY20 onwards considering strong
outlook for container trade in India along with the company’s increasing competitive market position.

Business Risks Haulage charges: The container train operators have very limited control over the largest cost component (~75%) — namely rail haulage. The increase in rates on an ad‐hoc basis by Indian Railways is a point of concern. Cost breakup: Railway freight is a major cost
Source: Company, PhillipCapital India Research Competition from road: Shift of cargo from road to rail may take some time. This may cause disruptions in the company’s profitability and viability of overall rail operations. Improved road infrastructure in the country is facilitating direct road transfers with competitive transit times and costs, despite all environmental and energy advantages associated with rail transport. Restricted commodities: Indian Railways has the right to specify certain commodities as restricted/notified commodities, which are not allowed to be transported by container operators. Presently, ores, minerals, coal, and coke have been specified as notified commodities. Valuation upside from investment in port operations We have not assumed any upside from investment in following subsidiaries/joint ventures. • Fresh and Healthy Enterprises Limited (FHEL): It is wholly owned subsidiary
incorporated in FY06 to create world‐class cold‐storage infrastructure in India and to provide complete cold‐chain logistics solutions.
• CONCOR Air Limited: It is a wholly owned subsidiary incorporated in FY13 to undertake the design, development, and operations of the air‐cargo terminal at Santa Cruz airport in Mumbai.
• Gateway Terminals India Pvt (: It is joint venture of APM terminals and Concor (74:26), which operates a container terminal at Nhava Sheva’s Jawaharlal Nehru Port Trust since FY07. It is India’s largest container‐terminal‐handling facility. In FY13, JNPT recorded a combined throughput of 4.26m TEUs with Gateway terminals India handling nearly 47% of its total throughput at 2m TEUs, representing 20% of India's total containerized cargo.
• India Gateway terminals (IGT): It is an Special Purpose Vehicle formed with an equity holding of 81.63% by DP World, 14.56% by Container Corporation of India

Company Background Container Corporation of India Ltd (CONCOR) established in Mar 1988, is a Mini‐Ratna Category‐1 GoI undertaking under the aegis of the Ministry of Railways. The company commenced operations in 1989 by taking over 7 makeshift inland container depots (ICDs) from the Indian Railways. The company operates 62 facilities and acts as a carrier, terminal operator, and warehouse operator, providing multi‐modal logistics for India’s export‐import and domestic trade and commerce. The company has a pan‐India presence. It is a leader in multi‐modal transport in India, with the largest available network of intermodal terminals across the country providing wide reach and penetration, combined with a strong presence at almost all container‐handling ports. Its infrastructure base consists of 62 terminals across the country of which 13 are pure exim terminals, 35 are combined container terminals, and 14 are pure domestic terminals. It has a fleet of 11,770 wagons, including 10,413 high‐speed wagons, 18,680 containers, 53 reach stackers, and 14 gantry cranes. Container Carrier: Most of companies terminals are rail linked and container movement through rail is major business operation for the company. Most of its inland transport is carried through the Indian Railway network where railway provide engine, track service and signaling systems. Though rail is its mainstay transportation, some of its terminals are exclusively road‐fed. However, road services are mostly in the form of a supplement — to offer the door‐to‐door linkages. Terminal operator: Its ICDs are dry ports and bring all port facilities (including customs clearance) to its customers’ doorstep. Its terminals provide a spectrum of facilities in terms of warehousing, container parking, repair facilities, and even office complexes. Warehouse operator: As a container freight station (CFS) operator, Concor offers value‐added services such as transit warehousing for import and export cargo, bonded warehousing that enables importers to store cargo and take partial deliveries thereby deferring duty payment, less‐than‐container‐load consolidation services and reworking of this LCL cargo at nominated hubs, and air‐cargo clearance using bonded trucking.

Containers: Unique cargo with high growth rate India has been seeing a high growth in its container volumes. Most of India’s container cargo of India moves through gateway ports in north‐west India, accounting for around 65% of the container trade. Container traffic mostly belongs to major ports. Only select non‐major/intermediate ports such as Pipavav Port and Mundra Port cater to containerized traffic. The share of container cargo as a percentage of total cargo at major ports has increased from 14% in 2004 to 21% in 2014. Top‐4 ports control 80% container volume in India
Source: Company, PhillipCapital India Research Historically, container cargo has grown at 1.5‐2x GDP (growth is very high in economic recovery). With increased container penetration and development of industrial corridors, the growth should increase going ahead. Container traffic (mn TEU) growth and GDP multiplier
Source: Company, PhillipCapital India Research The gradual recovery in global growth (led by high‐income countries) projected by the World Bank is also positive for container trade — global growth is expected to pick up speed as the year progresses and world GDP is projected to expand from 2.8% in 2014 to 3.4% in 2015 and 3.5% in 2016. The bulk of this acceleration will come from high‐income countries (notably the U.S. and the Euro area) with improving labor market conditions and a steady release of pent‐up demand (Source: GLOBAL ECONOMIC PROSPECTS | June 2014, WB).

Dedicated Freight Corridors (DFC) DFCs will strengthen India’s rail transport infrastructure to meet expected high future demand for freight movement. The development of DFCs would result in enhancing the market share of rail in freight by providing an efficient, safe, economical, and environment‐friendly option. The main earnings of the railways come from its freight operations, which cross subsidizes its losses on running passenger trains. However, currently, passenger trains are given preference and cargo trains are made to wait due to shortage of tracks. As a result, the average speed of a goods train is ~25kms per hour, which makes trucks a better option for many customers. Railways’ market share in the goods movement of the country has come down to around 30% from 65% in 1987 while the road sector's share has gone up to 60% from 34% in the same period. DFCC will reduce the unit cost of transportation by creating rail infrastructure to carry higher throughput per train. DFC will provide non‐discriminatory access to freight trains belonging to Indian railways and other qualified operators. The DFC has adopted international best practices, technology, systems, and business processes. It is using higher axle load and higher capacity rolling stock with efficient locomotives and traction system. Alignment of Western and Eastern DFC Corridor
Source: Dedicated Freight Corridor Corporation of India (DFCCIL) Construction of DFCs across the country is the most ambitious project ever conceived by the Indian Railways. Out of six DFCs planned in a phased manner, two corridors (eastern and western) are scheduled to be fully commissioned by FY17‐18. The eastern corridor will run from Ludhiana in Punjab to Dankuni near Kolkata with a length of 1,839kms and the Western corridor will stretch is JNPT near Mumbai to Dadri Delhi with a length of 1,534kms. The phasing of corridors is synchronized with the existing most‐saturated sections on the Mumbai‐Delhi and Delhi‐ Kolkata rail links.

Source: Dedicated Freight Corridor Corporation of India (DFCCIL) The western corridor is specifically dedicated to the container traffic requirements for the existing as well as emerging ports of Gujarat, Maharashtra, and the northern hinterland. Its route comprises of the following main destinations: JNPT‐Surat‐Vadodara‐Ahmedabad‐Palanpur‐Ajmer‐Rewari. It has been divided into two phases — phase‐1 from Rewari to Varodara (~950kms) and the phase‐2 from JNPT to Vadodara and Rewari to Dadri (~584kms). Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) will be funding the development of both sections to the extent of 80%. The growth in demand is expected on the back of: 1. Increase in rail share in port‐based container traffic by 35‐40% due to the DFC 2. Market share increase in container traffic by CONCOR through setting up of Multi‐
modal Logistics Parks (MMLPs) 3. Modal shift from road to rail 4. Creation of specific container movement for automobile and roll and roll off (Ro‐Ro)
traffic. 5. Anticipated changes in profile of traded goods — from intermediate to finished
goods — is bound to increase the opportunities for containerization in the domestic market.
DFCC would earn revenue as per user charges (termed Track Access Charges (TAC)), which are estimated at ~Rs 0.19 per NTKM in FY18 — significantly lower than the current railway charge of ~Rs 1 per NTKM.
Western DFC should lead to an exponential growth in container traffic

It will develop industrial cities around a multi‐modal high‐axle‐load dedicated freight corridor between Delhi and Mumbai, covering an overall length of 1,534km. It will develop an area of around 150‐200kms on both sides of its alignment. Its project influence area (PIA) comprises 430,000 square kilometers, which constitutes around 14% of India’s total geographical area. Six DMICDC states contribute ~50% of India’s principal crops; constitute 45% of the country’s GDP, and 58% of value of output. The development of industrial regions in these states will result in a 70% contribution to GDP by 2030. The developmental planning for DMICDC aims to double employment potential in five years (15% CAGR), triple industrial output in five years (25% CAGR), and quadruple exports from the region in five years (32% CAGR). DMICDC will have 24 investment regions developed in three phases out of which 7 will be developed in the first phase over the next five years. Each state has one investment region, except Maharashtra, which has two. The master plan for all seven industrial regions is ready. DMICDC is planning to use information technology to the fullest in addition to having a physical master plan for all these cities. Cisco and IBM are to create a digital layer on top of the physical plan for these cities. The entire city control and governance will be managed from one place with an integrated approach on a massive scale. To monitor real‐time container movement, DMICDC is working on logistics data software for connectivity with all logistic players. Apart from DMICDC, four more corridors will be developed by the Ministry of commerce, where DMC will provide support. Bangalore – Mumbai, Chennai – Bangalore, Amritsar ‐ Kolkata on eastern DFC, and Chennai ‐ Kolkata, where the first phase would be Chennai to Vizag.
