Given the diverse nature of its businesses, capabilities and returns of the outsourcing-
based export segment and technology-based domestic process automation segment,
we value the company by SoTP methodology. We assume the percentage contribution
of exports in the earnings to be similar as in the revenues (the company does not
share these data points separately). We assign a multiple of 60x FY22E earnings for
the domestic automation segment and 30x FY22E earnings for the outsourcing-based
export business.

Contribution of ‘other income’ to PBT was 14% in FY20 and is likely to increase going
forward due to high cash balance. Hence we believe the stock is fairly valued at
present. Our valuation for the domestic automation business is at a premium to
Siemens (41.6x FY22E earnings) given the contribution from pure automation is at
~25% for Siemens. While for the outsourcing business we assign a premium in
comparison to Infosys (22x FY22E earnings) and TCS (26x FY22E earnings) given the
consultancy and technical heavy nature of the business.

Process automation: Process automation reduces the need for plant operators to
physically monitor performance values and the quality of outputs to determine the best
settings on which the production equipment can run. Process automation involves
using sensors, actuators, computer technology and software engineering to help
power plants and factories in oil & gas, chemicals, paper, mining and cement sectors
to operate more efficiently and safely.
Sensors are installed around the plant that collect data on variables such as
temperatures, pressures, flows, liquid analysis, gas analysis.
The information is stored and analysed and the entire plant, or each piece of
production equipment, can be monitored from a control room. A computer program
5
Honeywell Automation India, October 7, 2020 ICICI Securities
uses measurements to show not only how the plant is working, but to simulate
different operating modes and find the optimal strategy for the plant.
The controls are done using PLC, SCADA or DCS and communication is either
through wire or wireless.
PLM software is used to automate the management of product-related data and
integrate the data with other business processes such as enterprise resource
planning (ERP) and manufacturing execution system (MES).
Indian public sector companies prefer to store data in their own servers rather than
on cloud to safeguard from data protection-related risks.
Key players in the domestic process automation market are: Honeywell
Automation India, Emerson, Endress + Hauser, Yokogawa, Siemens India.
Discrete automation: Discrete automation is used for processes in which the finished
component can be measured and each process creates a quantifiable or countable
part. This type of automation focuses on assembling high-quality engineered
components (sub-assemblies) into a more-efficient final product. Materials are often
moved manually in such a ‘high touch’ manpower environment. The main task in a
continuous plant is process regulation while for discrete plants the main task is
represented by plant command. At the ‘control level’, different types of controllers /
supervisors (such as IPCs or PLCs) are connected together and the underlying
‘sensor level’ provides the link with individual devices. Key players in discrete
automation in domestic market are Siemens India, Rockwell Automation, B&R
Automation, Beckhoff, Mitsubishi Electric.
HAIL is more focused on process automation than discrete and has its own
process plant overseas, hence it knows exactly what the challenges faced by
the industry are.
Consequently, the company has introduced new process solution offerings like IIoT-
based unified suite of software operations. Its offerings include distributed control
systems (DCS), transmitters, programmable logic controllers, emergency shutdown
systems (ESD), quality control systems (QCS), advanced software solutions, IIoT
solutions, and comprehensive lifecycle services.
Strongly placed in oil & gas industry: Honeywell is strongly positioned in the oil &
gas industry, hence its domestic growth is expected to witness good traction
supported by a healthy oil & gas project pipeline in terms of LNG terminals, refinery /
petchem capex, gas pipelines, etc. Greenfield opportunities from refining and
petrochemicals are better and the management expects good opportunities from the
government’s BS-IV to BS-VI fuel regulation projects.
While most of the industries served by HAIL are capital-intensive, the top sectors
for the company are oil & gas, construction, infrastructure and transportation.
Whereas Siemens’s strengths are in power plant and transmission, HAIL’s is in
hydrocarbon processes, hence it is more focused on process automation than
discrete. In oil &gas process industries, HAIL competes with Japan’s Yokogawa.
Of a typical refinery order value of US$4bn-5bn, automation accounts for 0.5-1%.
Approximately 50% of HAIL’s employees are software engineers. This plays into
its key strength of being experts in O&G industry having strong domain
knowledge. Company has done some large O&G orders in the Middle East.

Honeywell International Inc. (HON) is present in both UOP (Universal oil products) and
Honeywell process solutions (HPS) businesses, however HAIL is present only in HPS.
UOP operates as a separate private entity in India. HAIL continues to be the
beneficiary of HPS Global’s investment in technology for new products and
solutions, which invariably helps HPS India to strengthen its competitive
position.
Given that HCP is a relatively new offering, the initial target market for HCP will
be the leading industries as they provide HAIL a platform to test its concepts.
Once these solutions are implemented successfully in these leading industries,
the company plans to provide this solution to SME sector.

BACS plays a vital role in integrated building planning. The system provides energy
savings, greater comfort, safety and better operational efficiency. In India, the rising
concern for greenhouse gases along with rapidly increasing power demand-supply
gap are contributing to the growing adoption of the automation & control systems in
buildings. The demand for BACS is majorly driven by the commercial building segment
due to increasing number of shopping malls, office buildings, educational institutes,
hotels, hospitals, etc. The market is further supported by mandatory regulation of
energy efficiency in commercial buildings in cities such as Delhi. Policy and regulatory
support such as building codes, incentive schemes and labeling schemes (such as
LEED and BEE Star rating scheme) are expected to continue driving the BACS market
over the next five years.
In HVAC, thermostats, zone and climate controls, sensors and keypads are spurring
the demand for building automation & control systems market, while the emerging
carbon dioxide & combined sensors segment is projected to further boost market
growth over the next five years. The lighting control building automation & control
systems market in India is witnessing increasing demand for relay systems,
controllable breakers, dimming systems, switching solutions and sensors.
Key players in domestic building automation market are: Siemens India, HAIL,
Johnson Controls, Carrier.
Smart cities, railways and building automation are other key growth areas:
Infrastructure investment by government in 100 ‘smart cities’ and other public sector
projects continues to be the key growth driver for HAIL’s building solutions business.
Bhubaneswar is a smart city executed by HAIL. About seven smart cities are already
in execution by HAIL, which includes assistance to traffic police, fire department, etc.
Modernisation of railway stations, building of metro lines in major cities, expansion of
existing airports and establishment of new ones, all are also seeing a big push. Indian

Though there has been some impact on the Global Engineering Services (GES)
business given the travel restrictions, the company has been able to shift majority of
this work to digital mode, hence we don't foresee a medium to long term impact of the
pandemic on GES.
The Honeywell Operating System has three stages of compliance: Bronze, Silver, and
Gold. Much of the Bronze stage is restricted to improving productivity within the four
walls of the factory. Silver stage further improves production process by integrating
sales and procurement while working with customers and suppliers. The HOS Gold
stage drives growth and agility at the enterprise level. The Fulgaon, Pune, factory and
Global Services are at the Silver level.

During FY16-FY20, exports growth was 17% CAGR and exports contributed 44% to
FY20 revenues. Through the global engineering services and global manufacturing
segments, majority of these exports have been towards overseas entities related to
the parent (fellow subsidiaries). Consequently, the growth in travel and conveyance
cost grew by 14.4% CAGR, which is largely proportional to the growth in exports. This
implies that the majority of the export growth was led by outsourcing and not by
products or other services.

The cash on balance sheet has grown 4x from Rs3.7bn in FY16 to Rs15.1bn in FY20.
Other income as proportion of PBT has also been steadily increasing (14.2% of PBT in
FY20 vs 10.6% in FY16). We believe, the company will have to either increase the
dividend payout or should look at expansion of capacity or any inorganic growth
opportunities to utilize the cash effectively.
As per the FY20 AGM, the company considers three major focus areas for
growth: 1) healthcare and pharma; 2) products and solutions related to air
quality, hygiene and ensuring safety and control; 3) products and systems to
ease remote working and connected buildings, etc. The factors that will aid
margin improvement will be: 1) higher adoption of digital tools; (2) remote
working of engineers, etc.

Revenues CAGR for the period CY10-FY20 was 10%, wherein exports CAGR was
12.6% and domestic revenue CAGR 8.3%. Within products and services, for CY10-
FY20, CAGR has been 11.8% for services, 11% for traded products and 8.7% for
manufactured products and jobs.
Given that export contribution has been increasing steadily (from 35% in FY16 to 44%
in FY20), we expect exports to be a major growth driver in near to medium term. For
FY20-FY22E, we expect an overall revenue CAGR of 6.8% with export CAGR of 10%
and domestic revenue CAGR 5%.
Key risks
Increased volatility in oil prices (high dependency on O&G sector) as geopolitical
uncertainties grow (this would impact capital investment plans of upstream and
downstream companies).
Inventory in the residential real estate sector continues to be high and prolonged
sluggish growth in the sector; impacting the overall business of the company.
Long term risk to business includes increased competition from entry of Chinese
and other Asian players into the market

For FY20, domestic market contributed 56% of overall revenues while exports, majorly
global engineering services, accounted for 44%. Factoring-in an export CAGR of 10%
over FY20-FY22E, we expect export revenue contribution to increase to 46.4% in
FY22E.For domestic revenues, we expect revenue CAGR of 5% over FY20-FY22E,
hence the its contribution to decrease from 55.6% in FY20 to 53.6% in FY22E.
EBITDA CAGR over CY10-FY20 was 17.5%. Given the slowdown due to pandemic,
we expect EBITDA CAGR of 7.6% for FY20-FY22E.
Although, we expect APAT CAGR of 10.7% for FY20-FY22 (APAT margin improving
to 16% in FY22 from 15% in FY20), given the increasing cash on balance sheet,
RoCE are expected to stabilize to 20.5% in FY22E from 25% in FY20.
