Nirmal Bang Report

Johnson Controls-Hitachi Air Conditioning India Ltd. posted revenue of Rs 4.9 billion in Q1 FY22, up 82.5% YoY on a low base but 18% below our estimate.

Cooling products segment’s revenue jumped by 87% YoY to Rs 4.8 billion (96.6% of total sales) while design and development segment’s sales grew by 8.9% YoY to Rs 171 million (2.8% of total sales).

Gross margin declined by 420 basis points YoY to 30.9%, likely due to commodity cost pressures.

Ebitda in Q1 FY22 stood at Rs 47 million, led by lower employee costs, leading to higher operating leverage.

Johnson Controls-Hitachi reported a net loss of Rs 109 million, below our estimate of a net profit of Rs 284 million.
