Strong Q4; positive cash flow outlook

Despite demonetization, Sunteck Realty (SRL) reported strong performance during rest of the year with pre-sales up 17% YoY and collections up 12% YoY. The company generated strong operating cash flow which helped in reducing debt by ~Rs 3 bn at ~Rs 8.5 bn (net D/E of 0.47x) in FY17. Management targets to lower debt to ~Rs 5 bn.

We expect operational performance to improve in FY18 on (1) improved traction at BKC projects (all three projects are now complete), which can drive collections and (2) launch of Avenue 3– smaller ticket size than Avenue 2 and thus should receive strong response. We increase our pre-sales assumptions to factor in fading impact of demonetization. We also roll forward our valuation to arrive at our revised TP of Rs 503 (vs. Rs 329 earlier).
