Delphi Automotive
Delphi's 1O15 came in very strong. EPS of $1.21 compared with DBe of $1.15
and consensus of $1.17. Organic top line growth came in at 6% vs. DBe of
3%. And EBIT came in at $472 MM (12.4%) vs. DBe of $449 MM (12.1%) and
guidance of $440-$470. EBITDA was $600 MM vs. DBe of $593. As we
expected, full year EBIT guidance of $1.980-$2.980 bn was maintained despite
revenue guidance being adjusted lower to adjust for FX (now at $1.10 Euro vs.
1.20 Euro previously, which had the effect of lowering revenue by $500 MM).
Full year EPS guidance has remained at $5.35-$5.50. though noted that
Delphi's EPS guidance incorporates buybacks of -$250MM per quarter.
The performance this quarter was very encouraging... particularly with regard
to the earnings conversion on volume growth, which accelerated to 36% this
quarter. And we believe that the setup for the rest of 2015 is quite strong.
We'd note that: 1) Organic growth accelerated to 6% during the quarter, up
from 3.7in 2014. And based on full year expectations 8% we believe that
organic growth could accelerate to 10% by 21115 (driven by new Infotainment
and Active Safety launches in Europe, and a re-acceleration of growth in
Electrical Architecture), and continue at a relatively high 10%+ rate in 2016 and
2017; 2) We believe that O2 may have been better than it looked, as results
included a $10MM impact of a commercial settlement; 3) Our analysis
suggests that the net yoy impact of FX/Commodities should moderate during
2H, largely because commodities should begin to turn slightly positive
(compared with a slight negative impact in O1), and; 4) We believe that there
are additional potential drivers of upside, including an uptick in the pace of
share repurchases or an acquisition (i.e. we would be very surprised if Delphi
allowed $600-$650 MM cash proceeds from the sale of Thermal to sit on their
balance sheet).
We are fine-tuning our 2015 and 2016 EPS estimates to S5.32 (our estimate
assumes a $1.05 Euro) and $6.30 from $5.30 and $6.25, based on the O1
upside and updated guidance for buyback and below the line items. We are
maintaining our $94 price target based on a DCF derived 2016 PIE multiple of
15x. If DLPH's multiple expands to 15x our 2017 estimate, which is supported
by our DCF analysis, DLPH's shares could climb to -$110 by late 2016. We
continue to believe that there are relatively few companies within the Auto
Parts Universe that are as well positioned as Delphi to benefit from the key
Automotive Industry Secular Growth Themes. Overall, we are expecting
organic top growth of 9-10% per year over the 2015-2017 timeframe. And we
continue to note that the company's organic EBIT growth (which we project at
more than Il%/yr), combined with deployment of free cash (-5% FCF yield)
sets the company up for 16% EPS growth/annual appreciation, even before
multiple expansion.
