BSE Sensex 17,868
company continued to witness pressure in margins, with OPM dropping by 281bp
yoy to 9.2% (12.0%). Consequently, net profit fell 10% yoy to Rs37.2cr (Rs41.2cr). Nifty 5,368
The company approved a consideration of Rs80cr for acquiring the plumbing and Reuters Code BLUS.BO
fire-fighting company, DS Gupta Constructions. Owing to fair valuations, we Bloomberg Code BLSTR@IN
recommend Neutral on the stock.
Strong sales growth and outlook: The company reported strong growth in sales. Shareholding Pattern (%)
However, OPM declined by 281bp yoy, primarily on the back of higher input

costs and lower commission income during the quarter. Moreover, the company

changed its accounting policy, wherein it booked write-off losses on a quarterly
basis. As a result, there was a drop in net profit during the quarter. On the FII / NRIs / OCBs 5.9
positive side, the carry forward order book increased to Rs1,976cr (Rs1,717cr), up Indian Public / Others 42.5

Outlook and Valuation: We remain bullish on the company’s business prospects,

given its strong order book position and indications of uptick in business from
Blue Star 8.1 18.9 56.9
large sized orders. We have marginally revised upwards our FY2012E revenue
estimates to Rs3,778cr (Rs3,696cr) on improved business outlook. However,
margins are expected to remain near FY2010 levels. The stock is currently trading
at 18.3x and 14.6x FY2011E and FY2012E EPS respectively, factoring in most of
the visible positives. Thus, we recommend a Neutral on the stock.

Management Call - Key Takeaways
The company has approved a consideration of Rs80cr to acquire, the
plumbing and fire-fighting major, DS Gupta Construction. The company will
leverage this acquisition to cross sell its services to DS Gupta’s customers.
Funding for the acquisition will to be done through internal accruals and debt.
EMPPACS division is expected to record higher billing in the coming quarters,
as transformation of the order book is now complete and incremental orders
are expected to translate into sales.
The company is witnessing an uptick in demand in the ducted systems space
after 18 months of de-growth. This is generally a pre-cursor to the
improvement in business in the large order space. This augurs well for the
company.
There is a lot of activity in the small commercial sector. The real estate and
retail segments are also showing signs of revival. However, there is still not
much activity seen in the office space and IT segment.
Pricing pressure is expected to ease after new order inflows start coming
through, which the company expects to start happening in 4-6 months.
Cooling products division growth was driven by the healthy 34% growth in the
refrigeration and air-conditioning segment.

Investment Arguments
Substantial demand for centralised air-conditioning, cold storage to drive future
growth: The surge in demand for commercial space and increasing corporate and
government thrust for setting up an efficient cold chain infrastructure in the country
is set to trigger demand for centralised air-conditioning and cold storage system in
India. BSL's cold storage division too has high growth potential with the aggregate
cost of providing a nation-wide cold chain infrastructure estimated to cost more
than Rs15,000cr.
To maintain leadership position owing to superior execution skills: BSL's strength
lies in its superior execution skills compared to competition. The company, with
30% market share in the central air-conditioning system segment, is a preferred
vendor with the institutional clients. The company's list of national account
customers provides repetitive business.
Present in high-margin segments: BSL is a diversified player in the air-conditioning
industry and is focused on high-margin segments including commercial
refrigeration, cold storage and central air-conditioning. The company has
improved its margins following an increase in the average ticket size of orders. The
easing of pricing pressures is also expected to improve the company's margins
going ahead.
Outlook and Valuation
We maintain our positive view on the company, given the strong growth indicators
across all the three segments and a healthy order book of Rs1,976cr. The
acquisition of DS Gupta Construction will complement the company’s service
bouquet, which would now have a strong presence in the plumbing and fire
fighting space. The company will also be able to cross sell its existing services to
DS Gupta’s customers. The transformation of the order book implies that the order
book growth will start translating into higher sales for the company. The uptick in
the ducted systems segment augurs well for the business outlook, as it generally
precedes the inflow of large sized orders. Overall, we expect the company to post
CAGR of 22.3% in sales over FY2010-12E. Once complete recovery happens,
OPM of the company would also improve and remain at FY2010 levels. Thus, we
expect OPM to come in at 10.5% in FY2011E and at 10.7% in FY2012E.

Currently, the stock is trading at 17.9x and 14.2x FY2011E and FY2012E EPS
respectively, factoring in most of the growth prospects. We have valued DS Gupta
Construction’s business at 1x the consideration approved by BSL and added it to
the Target Price. However, the stock is trading at levels very close to our Target
Price. Hence, we recommend a Neutral on the stock.
