ICICI Securities Report

Whirlpool of India Ltd. has reported 48/85/91% decline in Q1 FY21 sales/Ebitda/profit after tax.

The gross margin has also declined 156/210 basis points on a YoY/QoQ basis. High Q1 revenue share could also lead to higher business impact from Covid-19 crisis.

Q1 share has been 39%/45% of FY19/FY20 revenue for Whirlpool. On a trailing 12 month basis, revenue/Ebitda/PAT is 16/38/37% lower than FY20.

Refrigerator revenue growth has been 13%/15% in FY19/FY20, higher than washers (12.6%/11.7% in FY19/20) and room air conditioners (-28%/11.7% in FY19/20), but is difficult to sustain due to increasing competition.

Services revenue has grown by 10%/8% in FY19/FY20. Trade discounts remain at 18% of gross product revenue (approximately 11.6% in FY14).

Refrigerator/Washers constitute 62/22% of the product mix with refrigeration and air conditioner/others making the remaining 6/10% as of FY20.

Overall revenue growth remains around approximately 12/11% in FY19/FY20.
