Investment Rationale
HDFC Securities anticipates a weak Q1FY26 for the company due to weak demand and a high base effect. They expect growth to rebound in Q2FY26. Furthermore, and project healthy growth in Q3FY26, as RAC prices are likely to increase from January 2026, driven by new rating change regulations. Considering the weak demand during the peak Q1 season, they have revised our revenue estimates downward by 10% for FY26 and 5% for FY27. Similarly, APAT estimates have been cut by 11% for FY26 and 7% for FY27. The brokerage now models a CAGR of 10% for revenue, 15% for EBITDA, and 17% for APAT over FY25-27E. HDFC Securities values Voltas UPC business at 40x EPS Mar-27E and the EMPS and Engineering Products and Services (EPS) business at 20x EPS Mar-27E each; the loss-making Beko is valued at 2x FY27 sales, translating into ~40x Mar-27E EPS.
