Reliance Securities on Cyient

  • Cyient’s (CYL) stock price rose 2.7% in yesterday’s trade, while the BSE Sensex declined 0.8%.
  • Cyient’s 1QFY20 USD revenue declined 5.2% QoQ in USD terms, with core services revenue down 6.2% QoQ, while DLM revenue rose 2.7% QoQ. 
  • From vertical perspective (core services), AERO (-2.8% QoQ in USD terms), Transportation (-1.7%), ENU (-11.8%) and Portfolio (-9.7%) were the key verticals that pressurised revenue.
  • Management expects revenue to recover in 2QFY20E along with margin expansion; growth has come back across verticals barring pockets like Semiconductor. 
  • Valuation at 11.3x/9.7x FY20E/FY21E EPS seems to be fairly reasonable. 
  • We have a BUY rating on Cyient, with a Target Price of Rs 610.
