Dear Reader,
If you invest in fundamentally strong small and mid cap companies with a medium to long term horizon, you will get rewarded for sure that too in a big way. Wim Plast Ltd (BSE Code: 526586) is classic example of "Buy Right and Sit Tight" strategy.
Our equity analysts published Hidden Gem - Aug 2011 research report and shared it with all Hidden Gems members almost 4.5 years back on 30th Aug 2011. Hidden Gem stock - Aug'11 - Wim Plast Ltd was recommended at average price of Rs. 185 with target price of Rs. 430 over period of 1 to 2 years which was achieved sooner than later, however we suggested our members to continue to hold it and add more on dips considering strong fundamentals and reasonable valuations.
In last 4.5 years, stock has multiplied investment of our Hidden Gems members by almost 10 times. Yesterday, stock price closed at Rs. 1725 giving absolute returns of 832% since our initial recommendation. Moreover, we kept on advising our members to add this stock in their portfolio at higher levels during last 3 years for long term wealth creation post our initial recommendation in 2011. Stock price tested all time high of Rs. 2499 last year and is currently available at Rs. 1725, down by 31% from its 52 week high.

Wim Plast is a zero debt company with maximum promoters holding of 75%. Company is maintaining operating margins above 17% since last 5 years and is taking all right steps to deliver consistent growth. In last five years, Wim plast have shown healthy CAGR growth of 22.9% and 17.7% in Revenue and PAT, respectively. ROE is 23.9% in last 5 years, which is impressive for such a small cap company.
We believe entry into
air cooler business will augur well for the company as it will give a major
boost in terms of revenue growth going forward. Even if company manages to grab
market share of 5% going forward, it will add Rs. 50 crores revenue in company’s top line which will be ~14% contribution in company’s revenue of Rs.
365 crores in FY 14-15.
Wim Plast has delivered EPS of Rs. 62 for financial year 2014-15. As per our estimates, Wim Plast can deliver EPS of Rs. 82 in FY 15-16 and Rs. 100 in FY 16-17. At CMP of Rs. 1725, stock is trading at forward PE multiple of 17.2 based on FY 16-17 earning estimates which make it reasonably valued at current price. We continue to like Wim Plast as long term investment opportunity, it’s a strong hold and must be considered as a buying opportunity in case of correction in stock price.
Wim
Plast continuously introduced new range of products to drive revenue growth and
profitability in past. Company has strengthened its brand equity of ‘cello’
branded products throughout country and has been continuously increasing the ad
spend. Company has launched new models for its product range including
various new designs. Another prominent brand of the company ‘Cello
Bubble Guard Sheets’ has gained rich response from the users for applications
like Tile Protector, False Ceiling, Wall Panel and Packaging materials in
past.
In
plastic furniture segment, Wim Plast is the third largest manufacturer after
Nilkamal and Supreme. Among listed players, Wim Plast has an edge over its
peers by reporting better margins. Balance sheet has remained strong for the
company as it has zero debt in its balance sheet. Strong operating cash flows
enable the company to remain debt free and fund the expansions through internal
accruals.
Wim Plast Forays into
Air Cooler Segment with Cello Coolers
India air cooler market is growing with
a CAGR of 11.26% from last four years and market is projected to grow further
due to rising mercury, increasing disposable income, growing demand in middle
class people and low price of air coolers as compared to air conditioners.
India air cooler market is divided into two parts viz. residential and
industrial. Residential and Industrial air cooler market is growing with a CAGR
of 15.68% and 9.04% respectively from past four years. Keeping in point, low
capital expenditure and electricity benefits of air coolers, the middle income
group majorly fuelled the sales in residential market. Whereas, industrial
cooling is slowly gaining increasing importance as corporate are now looking to
create an amiable working environment for their employees.
The Indian air cooler market size is
estimated to be around Rs 3,000 crore in value term and around 30% of this is
in the organised sector and rest is catered to by the unorganised segment
players. According to “India Air Cooler Market Outlook, 2021”, India’s Air
Cooler market is anticipated to reach INR 8,000 Crore by 2021 from current
estimated size of 3000 crores. There are an estimated 247 million households in
India and about 65% own fans, while only 4% of these households own air
conditioners and 8% own air coolers. High and rising temperature levels are
leading to greater demand for cooling solutions. With rising incomes, cooling
solutions are increasingly viewed as necessities. Considering lower cost of
ownership vis a vis ACs (70% lower capital costs and 90% lower running costs)
and the constrained power supply situation in India, air coolers are the mass
market option for Indian consumers. So, the potential customer base for cooling
solutions in India is huge.
Symphony, Kenstar and Bajaj are the
dominant players in the organized air cooler market. Voltas has also forayed
into the industry and is expected to give fierce competition to the market
leader Symphony. Room coolers account for almost two-third of the total market
and is expected to dominate going forward, followed by desert coolers. North
India caters to the largest revenue sales as the region is growing at a fast
pace and the growth is fuelled by a shift from unorganized to the organized
market.
Symphony is the market leader. Symphony
domestic sales in FY 14-15 was ~ Rs. 462 crores with nearly 50% market share in
organized market, other players too grown from zero to over 15% share of the
organised market in value terms in last 3 to 5 years.
Wim Plast is the new entrant in air
cooler market and already started selling its coolers under brand “Cello” with
all major online retailers – Amazon, Flipkart, Snapdeal, Paytm and Pepperfry.
Various models of Cello coolers are launched in price range of Rs. 7,000 to Rs.
15,000 under Dessert, Mini Dessert, Personal and Window category with water
capacity of 22 Litres to 60 Litres. Cello coolers are available in wide range
with latest features to compete well with other major players to grab market
share in organized air cooler industry. Cello Coolers TV commercial is already started by the company to position and market its products in this summer season.
As of now, we have not seen Wim Plast
coolers at supermarket stores like Big Bazaar and D-Mart in places like Mumbai,
Delhi and Bangalore where as other other brands like Symphony, Bajaj, Crompton
Greaves, Kenstar and Orient coolers are available. We believe the same will be
available soon to capture market share by the company.
Wim Plast has history of strong brand
positioning under brand Cello to market and sell its products in moulded furniture
(plastic furniture and material handling products) and boards (false ceiling,
wall panel, bubble guard sheet etc) category.

Floor Protector
In the under construction sites, the floor tiles are laid prior to the finishing of the buildings. All the electrical and other fittings are done after the flooring is completed. Portable scaffoldings, tools and other equipments move on the floor, to complete the remaining work.
To avoid the damage to the tiles, Plaster of Paris (POP) is laid on the Flooring and removed after the completion of the job. POP has many disadvantage as it is cumbersome to lay & remove, Skilled labour is required, Time Consuming , Disposition of debris after completion is the major problem, while removing / scrapping operation chances of getting scratches to the tiles. Construction site becomes shabby, uncomfortable, dusty, and unhygienic.

Saral Gyan Recommendation (30 Aug'11)
i) Management has been conservative in past but now with new developments with expansion plans for their existing facilities and set up of new plants at new locations give visibility for revenue growth in coming years. New facilities at new location will also give opportunities to company to move into new regions expanding their customer reach.
ii) The Management holds 72.96% equity in the company and has been continuously increasing its stake at current valuations (increased holding by 1% during last one year) which gives confidence of growth prospects in coming quarters.
iii) The stock is available at low valuations, existing P/E ratio of 6.5 make the stock valuations attractive while comparing it with peer stocks like Nilkamal and Supreme Industries.
iv) The operating margins and net profit has grown significantly. Since last 2 years, company has improved its margin and profit margins of 11-13% seems sustainable even after expansion due to less dependence on debt, currently cash balance is in excess of total debt of the company. No equity dilution since last many years is another positive.
v) At current market price of Rs 204.55, dividend yield works out to be more than 2% (Company has announced Rs. 4.50 dividend per share). On equity of Rs. 6 crore the estimated annualized EPS for FY 2011-12 works out to Rs. 38 and the Book value per share is Rs. 139.16. At a CMP of Rs. 204.55, stock price to book value is 1.47. Currently, the scrip is trading at 6X FY 2011-12 estimated earnings which make it an attractive buy at a price range of 175-180.
Saral Gyan Team recommends “BUY” for Wim Plast Ltd for a target price of Rs. 430 over a period of 12-18 months.
