View and valuation: SIS has met the milestone of being #1 India Security player.
Now, it aims to be #1 player in Indian FM market. With a slew of new acquisitions
{RareHospitality (FM), SLV (India sec - north), Uniq (India security – Bangalore)
Henderson (Singapore security) and P4G & Triton (New Zealand security), SIS is
plugging portfolio gaps in key geographies. While its growth trajectory is in place;
SIS has taken several initiatives (Man Tech solutions, Alarm monitoring, Integrated
FM) to move from a product/service offering to a solution-based offering. Initiatives
like ONE SIS, OYC (own your customer) will enable better and more granular client
mining. It maintains its guidance of 18-20% organic revenue growth (India security
+ facility management); 25%+ ROCE and 50% + CFO/EBITDA ; in essence
balancing growth, margin and profitability.

Given the stark differences in growth, opportunity size and margin of the 3 business
segments, we value SIS on SoTP basis. We value the fast-growing and high-margin
India segments (Security and FM) at 15x FY22E EBITDA and International segment
at 10x as it is in typically matured markets hence has a lower growth profile (details
on page 5).

Conference call takeaways


♦ India Security (#1 player)
 Revenue growth was led by strong client additions and lower client attrition.
Monthly run rate maintained at ~Rs 3 bn (flat sequentially).
 Organically, revenue/branch per month increased from ~Rs 14.5 mn in
Q3FY19 to ~Rs 17.5 mn in Q3FY20 (~Rs 18 mn including acquisitions).
 Segment profitability was maintained sequentially at ~6%. Management
highlighted staff costs declined ~10% YoY despite increase in revenue per
month of ~21% YoY.
 DSOs inched up marginally due to the stress in the economy and poor
working capital availability for many clients. DSO as of Dec-19 stood at 69
days vs. 67 days in Sept-19.
 On steady state, segment EBITDA margin to be 6-6.5%.
 SIS closed the quarter with 157K security guards deployed across India.

♦ International Security (#1 in Australia and among top 3 in Singapore)


 High single-digit growth momentum continued with strong margin
improvement. Management highlighted Australia had an excellent quarter
for working capital with collections hitting a historic high. DSO in Australia
came down from 54 days in Q2FY20 to 46 days in Q3FY20.
 Margin improvement initiatives helped Singapore subsidiary – Henderson
(Q3 revenue at ~SGD 15 mn) – clock over 10% EBITDA margin.
Acquisitions in New Zealand are scaling up well and have attained
leadership position in alarm solutions and monitoring business.
 On a steady state, international business EBITDA margin to be 5-5.5%.
 SIS closed the quarter with ~9K security guards deployed across
international markets.

♦ Facility Management (#2 player)


 Despite economic slowdown, strong organic growth continued across SBUs
as SIS inched closer towards becoming market leader in India FM sector.
 Focus on specialized verticals like hospitality, railways and healthcare,
through creation of an in-house knowledge base and customized
productivity tools helped SIS notch impressive client wins.
 Rare Hospitality continued strong performance aided by order wins during
the quarter. Monthly revenue run rate increased by 20% YoY to ~Rs 90 mn.
 On a steady state, segment EBITDA margin to be 6-6.5%.
 DSO remained flat YoY.

♦ Cash logistics (accounted as associate): Revenue (~Rs 885 mn vs. ~Rs 728 mn
in Q3FY19) and profitability (segment EBITDA of ~Rs 51 mn vs. -ve ~Rs 10 mn
in Q3FY19) improving on (1) increased focus on non-ATM business and
(2) exiting unprofitable contracts.

SoTP valuation
Given the stark differences in growth, opportunity size and margin in the 3 business
segments, we value SIS on SOTP basis.

India security business: SIS, with the acquisition of SLV and UNIQ, has become the
#1 player in the Indian Security industry and is growing organically by 18-20%.
Margin trajectory is set to improve with strong focus on solutions-based offering
(Man-tech solutions, Alarm Monitoring etc.), efficiency gains and operating
leverage benefits. We value India Security business at 15x FY22 EBITDA.

FM business remains the growth engine for SIS; from a revenue base of
~Rs 500 mn in FY13, this has become a ~Rs 6.8 bn (FY19) revenue pool through
strong organic growth and synergistic acquisitions. This segment clocked the highest
margin (6.7% in 9MFY20) and the management guided that the margin going
forward will be in similar range (6.5%+). Also, some of its sub-segments like
Terminix (pest control) achieved breakeven in FY19 and are now profitable.
Initiatives like One-SIS will enable client mining which will drive improvement in
overall growth and sustainable margin. We value this strong growth and margin
business at 15x FY22 EBITDA.

International security business: Australia is the largest geography with MSS + SXP
being the market leader in a matured market. Other markets include New Zealand
and Singapore. Overall organic growth in these matured markets is expected to be
4-5%. However, international segment for SIS has been growing at 2x that growth
rate and we expect it to grow 8-10% during FY19-22. Margin trajectory is
expected to improve through synergistic acquisitions like Henderson (~12% margin
in FY19) and scale benefits. We value this segment at 10x EBITDA (in line with
global peers like G4S, Securitas etc.).
