Capacity expansion and backward integration to support future plans
Everest Kanto plans to increase its capacity by 0.5 mn cylinders to 1.52 mn
cylinders per annum in FY12 to meet the robust demand for high pressure
cylinders and use better technology to backward integrate its production
leading to better margins. For the new additional Gandhidham capacity, it will
use the billet-piercing technology since this is cheaper than the use of
seamless tubes. Further, the Kandla-based plant will use the deep-drawing
technology to make lighter cylinders.

Fundamental Grade
Everest Kanto Cylinder Ltd (Everest Kanto) manufactures high-pressure
seamless CNG and industrial cylinders for both domestic and global customers.
The company has an established track record and enjoys leadership position in
the domestic market. But with increasing competition leading to permanent
margin contraction at the industry level and continued underperformance by
Everest Kanto’s US and Chinese operations, we revise our fundamental grade
to ‘3/5’ (from ‘4/5’), which indicates that the company’s fundamentals are
‘good’ relative to other listed securities in India.

KEY STOCK STATISTICS
Increase in competition to affect pricing power and margins
Although Everest Kanto is the market leader in India with ~60% share, many
players have put up high pressure cylinder manufacturing capacities in India
and China. Thus, despite the robust growth in domestic and global demand, we
expect an overcapacity scenario to persist over the next two years. Besides,
the increasing competition in the CNG cylinder manufacturing business has
resulted in an overall margin contraction at the industry level.
NIFTY/SENSEX
5751/19132
NSE/BSE ticker
EKC
High dependence on a single raw material supplier
Everest Kanto purchases ~40% of its seamless tubes (its key raw material)
from Tenaris. Such high dependence and Everest Kanto’s strategy to hold high
inventory took a huge toll on its margins in H2FY10 and Q1FY11. Although
Everest Kanto is increasingly procuring seamless steel tubes from producers in
China and Japan, we believe that Tenaris will remain the largest supplier.
Beta
Expect three-year revenue CAGR of 19%
We expect revenues to register a three-year CAGR of 19% to Rs 11.0 bn in
FY13 largely driven by a ~18% growth (CAGR) in production and sales during
the same period. EBITDA margin is expected to increase by ~12 pps to ~22%
in FY13 on account of stable operations and increasing contribution to sales
from Everest Kanto’s expanded capacities.
Valuation: Current market price is aligned
CRISIL Equities has used the discounted cash flow method to value Everest
Kanto and arrived at a fair value of Rs 93 per share. This fair value implies P/E
multiples of 10.7x FY12E and 7.7x FY13E earnings.

Everest Kanto Cylinder Ltd
Grading Rationale
Established market position in high-pressure
seamless cylinder segment
Everest Kanto is the largest CNG and industrial cylinder manufacturer in India.
The company enjoys market leadership in the domestic market with an
estimated ~60% market share and favourable position in international markets
Everest Kanto is the
mainly on account of its long history in business and adherence to the highest
largest CNG and
quality standards. The company exports its cylinders to over 20 countries all
over the world including Iran, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Thailand, Malaysia, Egypt
industrial cylinder
manufacturer in India
and the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) countries. The company’s
major exporting destinations include Iran and Pakistan, the largest CNG markets
globally, together accounting for 35% market share in CNG vehicles running
globally.
Increasing consumption of industrial gases to drive
demand for industrial cylinders
The gas industry relies heavily on cylinders to store and transport gases. Everest
Kanto adheres to the most stringent regulations – both at national and
international levels - while manufacturing high-pressure gas cylinders for various
gases such as oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, argon, helium, air, etc. The company
provides cylinders with water capacities that range between 1 litre and 280 litres
and also supplies cylinders in customised sizes. Because Everest Kanto is flexible
to meet any specification, it has a broad customer base of companies supplying
industrial gases across the globe.
The demand for cylinders is directly proportional to the demand for industrial
gases. During FY05 to FY10, demand for industrial gases grew at a CAGR of
~11%. CRISIL Research holds a favourable outlook for demand for industrial
Everest Kanto has a
gases over the next five years with an expected recovery in end user sectors like
broad customer base of
steel (main consumer which accounts for over 50% of total demand) and
manufacturing. Growth in new segments such as medical care, food packaging,
and dairy products will also push demand for industrial gases. This is expected
companies supplying
industrial gases across
the globe
to augur well for Everest Kanto, which is all set to increase its manufacturing
capacity of industrial cylinders.
Capacity expansion to drive growth
Global expansion
Everest Kanto entered the global market by setting up plants in Dubai and
China. The Dubai plant commenced production in FY04. The company doubled
its capacity at the Dubai plant in FY08 to 196,000 cylinders per annum. The
Dubai unit, being in a free trade zone, enjoys a tax holiday and is exempted
from duty. Due to these advantages, the Dubai plant enjoys cost savings of
around 5-7%. The company had added a capacity of 200,000 cylinders in China
in FY09. In China, Everest Kanto sources raw material from local suppliers for its
industrial cylinders, which would be 5-10% cheaper than that in India. Also,

Everest Kanto would have some tax incentives (including full exemption from
the State Enterprise Income Tax (‘EIT’) for a period of two years from its initial
profit making fiscal year and a 50% exemption of EIT for three years following
the initial two-year full exemption period).
Driven by robust demand in Iran and other middle-eastern countries, Everest
Kanto’s Dubai plant is currently operating at over 100% capacity utilisation
levels. However, the company’s plant in China is currently operating at a meagre
~30% capacity utilisation level considering a nameplate capacity of 200,000
cylinders per annum. The management has said that they are in the process of
installing some balancing equipment at the Chinese plant which would then
enable them to increase production. We believe that higher production from
Everest Kanto’s China plant will enable the company to efficiently service its
customers in Iran and other middle-eastern countries especially when the Dubai
plant is operating at optimum utilisation rates.
Everest Kanto plans to
Domestic expansion
expand its capacity by
In Gandhidham, Gujarat, Everest Kanto is expanding its industrial cylinder
0.5 mn cylinders in FY12
capacity by another 200,000 cylinders to 545,000 cylinders per annum. This
plant, which is expected to get commissioned in the beginning of FY12, will use
the billet-piercing technology and focus on the growing industrial cylinder
demand.
Besides, the company is setting up a greenfield 300,000 CNG cylinders plant in
the Kandla Special Economic Zone (KASEZ) which is also expected to start
production in early FY12. This plant will use the steel-plate deep drawing
process to produce lighter cylinders and focus mainly on exports to countries
where there is growing demand for lighter cylinders. This capacity expansion
would enable the company to cater to the increasing demand for the highpressure seamless cylinders across the world.
Backward integration to provide better margins…
At the Gandhidham plant, Everest Kanto will use the billet-piercing process for
the new additional facility of 200,000 cylinders. The company had taken this
strategic decision as billets are ~40% cheaper than seamless tubes and can
easily be procured from India itself. This move would also de-risk its greater

at its Kandla plant
will achieve higher margins.
In the Kandla SEZ plant, the company will manufacture cylinders using steelplate deep drawing process. This new technology will enable Everest Kanto to
achieve optimum thickness for the cylinders and thereby obtain cylinders 10%
lighter than seamless tube cylinders. This will, consequently, result in better
mileage for vehicles. As per the company, this technology will be the first of its
kind in India and it will be the second company globally to adopt this technology
(the other one is Faber Industries). The plant will primarily cater to European

markets where users are more concerned about the vehicle’s weight. In
addition, these cylinders are expected to have better realisation than seamless
tube cylinders. Also, higher realisations would result in higher margins in
comparison to cylinders made of seamless tubes
…but vulnerability to project risks persists

manufacturing processes
The company has already faced time overrun in commissioning its billet-piercing
plant at Gandhidham and the plant has not yet stabilised. The commissioning of
Everest Kanto’s Kandla plant has also been delayed by more than a year, due to
depressed economic conditions in the recent past.
Increasing competition in cylinder manufacturing
Increasing availability of gas, its cost competitiveness compared to alternate
fuels and the government’s increasing focus on developing gas infrastructure
have lead to an increase in natural gas vehicles (NGVs) in India and globally,
resulting in higher demand for CNG cylinders. As a result, many players have
put up high-pressure cylinder manufacturing capacity in India. Besides Everest
Kanto, the key Indian players in the high-pressure cylinder manufacturing are
Rama Cylinders, Nitin Cylinders, Lizer Cylinders and Confidence Petroleum.
Globally, there are many CNG cylinder manufacturers who have put up
capacities in China.

capacity utilisation rate than its peers. However, the increasing competition in
the high-pressure cylinder manufacturing business has restricted Everest
Kanto’s pricing power resulting in a steep margin contraction compared to those
achieved in FY08 and FY09.
Besides, Confidence Petroleum has commissioned a 0.18 mn cylinder capacity in

huge toll on Everest Kanto’s EBITDA margins.
The company has begun taking several measures to mitigate risks relating to
supplier concentration. It is increasingly procuring seamless steel tubes from
producers in China and Japan. Further, with the commencement of the billet
piercing and deep drawing manufacturing processes, the company’s dependence
on the Tenaris is expected to reduce further. Steel requirements for these
processes are expected to be met through local suppliers.
However, we believe that Tenaris will remain one of the largest suppliers of steel
tubes to Everest Kanto, because of the high quality of its products. As a result,
the company will remain exposed to risks related to supplier concentration over
the medium term.

City gas distribution to boost CNG cylinder sales in
India
Demand for CNG vehicles in India is growing because of the rising cost of
conventional fuels and development of city gas distribution (CGD) facilities in
cities. Although the initial regulatory push led to the increased usage of CNG, it
was ultimately the cost benefit to consumers, which led the growth. Usage of
CNG is beneficial to consumers due to its inherent cost advantage vis-à-vis other
auto fuels. Energy content per kilogramme of CNG is similar to that of
petroleum-based fuels. Usage of CNG in vehicles results in higher mileage per
unit due to its superior compression characteristics. The cost of CNG is also very
competitive to that of petrol and diesel. The initial cost of conversion of a diesel
or petrol vehicle to CNG depends on the vehicle type. Recovery of this
conversion cost varies from about 6 months for auto rickshaws to 2 - 2.5 years
for buses, which is very less considering the life of vehicles.

CRISIL Research expects the number of cities covered under CGD to increase
from an estimated 48 in FY10 to over 100 by FY15. Consequently, the number of
vehicles running on CNG is expected to increase manifold because of regulatory
push and cost savings from using CNG. The expected growth in demand for
compressed natural gas (CNG) cylinders, over the medium term, will benefit
Everest Kanto.
Growing global demand for NGVs to boost exports
Global demand for the NGVs has been increasing rapidly due to:
•
Availability of gas in many countries such as Pakistan, Iran and Argentina.
•
Rise in demand from developing economies of Asia, Africa, South America
and CIS
•
Rising crude prices, which make CNG even more cost effective
•
The increasing focus on environment - CNG vehicles are preferred as they
are less polluting than vehicles using conventional fuels.

to promote the increased use of CNG instead of conventional fuels. Iran, which
is currently the fourth largest in the world with respect to number of natural gas
vehicles, plans to convert the majority of its cars to CNG. Besides, governments
of countries such as China and Thailand have also initiated plans to increase the
use of the cleaner fuel. Iran, China, India, Egypt, Pakistan, etc. are expected to
witness an increase in the number of natural gas vehicles, given the thrust on
usage of CNG.

According to the International Association for Natural Gas Vehicles, the
population of NGVs is expected to cross 50 mn by 2020. This implies a CAGR of
~15% from 2009-2020. Such robust growth in the number of NGVs is expected
to augur well for Everest Kanto.

Key risks
Project execution
As discussed earlier, expansion plans for the Gandhidham and Kandla facilities
involve new manufacturing processes and therefore face technology risks. The
commissioning of both these plants have been delayed by almost one and a half
year because of the economic slowdown and also because of the challenges
which the company is facing in stabilising production from these plants. The
company now targets to commission both these plants in Q1FY12. Any further

sold at higher realisations. In FY10, the sale of cylinders came down marginally
to ~687,000 but the proportion of exports reduced to ~45% due to global
slowdown. Also, due to bankruptcy of one of the major OEMs in Iran, Everest
Kanto’s exports to Iran as a proportion of total exports reduced to ~1% from
73% in FY09. The supply meant for Iran’s market had to be diverted to Pakistan,
Bangladesh and other Eastern countries where the company earned very low
realisations. Lower realisations coupled with high raw material costs resulted in
a sharp margin contraction for Everest Kanto in FY10. In FY11, exports to Iran
have again picked up which are expected to result in better realisations and
profits for Everest Kanto.

PAT to grow at a three-year CAGR of ~115%, EPS to
increase from Rs 1.3 in FY10 to Rs 12.0 in FY13
Everest Kanto’s PAT (adjusted) is expected to grow from Rs 129 mn in FY10 to
Rs 1,284 mn in FY13, primarily driven by an improvement in profitability from
FY10 levels and also because of an increase in revenues on the back of higher
sales.
Profitability plunged in FY10 mainly because the company had to write-down
high cost inventory and also because of lower average realisations due to lower
sales to Iran where cylinders command higher realisations.

FY10 was an aberration when Everest Kanto was hit by writing down of high-
Strong bottom-line
cost inventory and a fall in average realisations. Consequently, we expect
growth led by increased
margins to rebound in FY11 from FY10 levels. Margins are expected to expand
profitability from FY10
further in FY12 as the company had some effect of high cost inventory write-
levels
down in Q1FY11 which is not expected in FY12. Also, Everest Kanto is expected
to have some margin expansion as production commences from its expanded
capacities in Gandhidham and Kandla as cylinders from these plants would have
higher margins compared to cylinders manufactured from seamless tubes.
However, due to increase in competition, we do not believe that Everest Kanto
would be able to get back to its EBITDA margins of ~30% witnessed in FY08 and
FY09.

Everest Kanto Cylinder Ltd
Management Overview
CRISIL Equities’ fundamental grading methodology includes a broad assessment
of management quality apart from other key factors such as industry, business
prospects and financial performance. Overall, we believe the management of
Everest Kanto is relatively good.
Strong management with good experience
Everest Kanto has a strong and experienced management headed by Mr PK
Khurana, who has over 30 years of experience in the cylinder manufacturing
business.
Although the Indian government’s thrust on CNG over the past six to seven
years has aided the company significantly, Mr Khurana can be credited with
spotting both organic and inorganic growth opportunities in the domestic and
global markets, resulting in Everest Kanto’s leadership position in both the
markets.
Strong second level
Everest Kanto’s
management has rich
experience in the high
pressure cylinder
manufacturing business
The second line of management, headed by Mr Pushkar Khurana and Mr Puneet
Khurana, is strong. Both of them have been in the business for about 12-15
years. While Mr Pushkar is involved in the Dubai operations, Mr Puneet is
responsible for setting up China operations and marketing in India and South
East Asia.
Acquisition yet to become value accretive
Everest Kanto acquired US-based CP Industries (CPI), the global market leader
in jumbo cylinders, in April 2008, for ~US$ 70 mn, thereby obtaining access to
jumbo cylinder technology and fill up the only gap in its product offerings.
However, owing to the global slowdown post acquisition of CP industries and the
slow recovery in the US economy, Everest Kanto’s US operations are incurring
losses at the PBIT level. Also, Everest Kanto’s decision to set up a plant in China
to benefit from lower raw materials cost and cater to the growing cylinder
demand in China has not yielded the desired results due to increased
competition from local players. The company’s Chinese operations are also
making loses at the PBIT level.

Everest Kanto Cylinder Ltd
Corporate Governance
CRISIL’s fundamental grading methodology includes a broad assessment of
corporate governance and management quality, apart from other key factors
such as industry and business prospects, and financial performance. In this
context, CRISIL Equities analyses shareholding structure, board composition,
typical board processes, disclosure standards and related-party transactions.
Any qualifications by regulators or auditors also serve as useful inputs while
assessing a company’s corporate governance.
Overall, corporate governance at Everest Kanto presents fairly good practices,
supported by a strong and independent board and board processes which
broadly conform to minimum standards.
Board composition
Everest Kanto’s
practices conforms to
adequate corporate
governance standards
Everest Kanto’s board consists of 12 members, one of whom is an alternate
director. The board is chaired by Mr PK Khurana, who is also the managing
director of the company. Of the 11 active directors, six are independent
directors, which is well above the minimum stipulated in the Securities and
Exchange Board of India (SEBI) listing guidelines. The Board includes several
professionals of repute, experience and sector knowledge.
Board’s processes
Our discussion with the independent directors indicates that the board’s
processes appear to be well structured. Most of the independent directors have
been associated with the company before the IPO in 2005 and therefore have a
significant understanding of the business.

Valuation
Grade: 3/5
We have used the discounted cash flow (DCF) method to value Everest Kanto
and arrived at a fair value of Rs 93 per share. At the current market price of Rs
85 per share, the stock trades at P/E multiples of 9.8x and 7.1x its estimated
FY12 and FY13 EPS of Rs 8.7 and Rs 12.0, respectively. Our fair value of Rs 93
per share gives implied P/Es of 10.7x and 7.7x based on FY12 and FY13
earnings, respectively. We, therefore, assign a valuation grade of 3/5, indicating
that the market price is aligned.
Key DCF assumptions
•
We have made explicit forecasts from FY12 to FY21.
