J Kumar Infraprojects Ltd (JKIL) Q1 FY19 revenue, at Rs. 618.42 crores, spurted 49% y-o-y with works picking up in Mumbai metro line 3 contributing ~42% of topline or ~ Rs. 260 crores in the first quarter.

We opine to HOLD the stock and assign a target of Rs. 406 based on a PE multiple of 12.5 times our FY20 PAT estimate of Rs. 246 crores and EPS of 32.5 implying an upside of 78% from current levels of Rs. 228 in 12 – 18 months timeframe.
1. Financial Highlights
Even though JKIL has a weaker H1 revenues as compared to H2 revenues on accounts of monsoon, the company reported robust topline at Rs. 618.42 crores demonstrating their execution capabilities. Line 3 (underground metro) contributed the most ~ Rs. 260 crores (42% of the topline) while, JNPT contributed Rs. 125 crores (20% of the topline) followed by line 2 & 7 at Rs. 95 crores (15% of the topline). As Mumbai receives the most precipitation in Q2, we expect line 3 topline contribution to be little subdued in the next quarter.
Depreciation increased to Rs. 25 crores in Q1 FY19 against Rs. 21.84 crores in Q4 FY18 and is expected to remain constant going forward. Finance cost has increased to Rs. 21.50 crores as net debt has increased to Rs. 700 crores at the end of Q1 FY19. Management has guided the debt levels will remain constant at Rs. 700 crores in FY19 and FY20.
Management still sticks to a conservative outlook and has guided for Rs. 2,300 – 2,400 crores topline in FY19 and for Rs. 2,700 crores topline in FY20. However, as seen in FY18, where the management had guided for Rs. 1800 crores topline but executed Rs. 2050 crores, we believe similar instances will reoccur in the future.
2. Order Book position
As of 11th August, 2018 JKIL has an outstanding order book worth ~ Rs. 9,850 crores including orders worth Rs. 1,522 cores disclosed recently.

Management has guided to have a comfortable order book position between Rs. 10,000 – 12,000 crores going forward, which translates into 5 times the revenue of FY18 of Rs. 2050 crores. Given the execution capabilities of the company, JKIL can comfortably manage an order book size up to Rs. 15,000 crores.
