Editors Desk
Dear Investor,
Here is a brief of what you will come across in this edition of BULLSbook.
In the first section, we have focused on equity dilution. Many of us simply stay away
from companies who dilute their equity. What exactly does it mean, and what are its
implications ? Every investor must know the facts behind equity dilution.
In the second section we have included the latest interview by Rakesh Jhujhunwala on
his thoughts on markets & investing. Markets take his opinion quiet seriously & so we
do !
Third section has the stock of the month. We are recommending Cinemax India Limited
for this month. Cinemax is into multiplex & entertainment business. Majority of its
revenue comes from the box office collections through its chain of multiplexes across
India. This is an upcoming sector & the company is well poised to exploit the huge
opportunity that exists.

Our Approach
For Example :
Company XYZ Limited has 100 shares. 60 shares are owned by the promoters & 40 are
owned by common investors. Net valuation of the company is 1 crore rupees. The
company needs 20 lac rupees for business purpose. And investors are ready to pay 20
lacs in return for 20% stake in the company. XYZ limited decides to raise funds by
issuing new shares. New shares will be issued by using a formula;
X / (100 + X) = 0.20
That means, XYZ limited will have to issue 25 new shares to new investor. After this
deal, total number of shares of XYZ limited will go up to 125 (100 previous shares + 25
new shares). Now out of 125 shares, new investor holds 25 shares, promoters hold 60
shares & common investors hold 40 shares. i.e. promoter stake has gone down from
60% to 48% & common shareholders stake has gone down from 40% to 32%. Now, it
will impact company’s EPS ( earning per share ). Suppose XYZ limited had earnings of
1000 rupees resulting into an EPS of 10 rupees per share (i.e. 1000/100). Post the
issuance of new shares, this EPS will come down to 8 rupees per share (i.e. 1000/25).
This is called as equity dilution. But is it good or bad? let’s see.

What matters is not EPS dilution but "intrinsic value per share dilution." In many cases,
a dilution in EPS is accompanied by a dilution in per-share intrinsic value. This would
happen, for example, when a company's promoters allot shares to themselves at a
heavy discount to their per-share intrinsic value. But it is essential for investors to
understand that all EPS dilutions do not necessarily result in per-share intrinsic value
dilutions.
Understanding the difference between EPS dilution and intrinsic value dilution is as
important for managers as it is for investors. Managers should act in ways that
increase intrinsic value per share and avoid moves that decrease it. Moreover, their
focus should be on maximising per share intrinsic value, not per share earnings. These
two goals do not always go together. Many managerial acts may reduce EPS while
increasing per-share intrinsic value and equally many managerial acts may increase
EPS but reduce intrinsic value per share.

Many managers believe that if they can figure out a way to boost EPS for the current or
the next few years, their companies' stock prices will always go up. They are wrong.
Although EPS is useful for some situations, its simplicity allows managers to ignore
important factors that affect the value of a company. It can, therefore, lead managers
to make choices that destroy value in the long term, often without the short-term
share price improvement they hoped for. There can be many situations where a fall in
EPS may actually be accompanied by a rise in per-share intrinsic value.
Many managers forget that while they can take decisions that affect EPS, it is the
market that will determine the price earnings ratio (P/E) and, consequently, the stock
price. So, if an irrational managerial decision increases EPS but reduces per share
intrinsic value, the market will punish the company by assigning it a low P/E multiple.
In the same way, if a sensible managerial decision reduces EPS but increases per-share
intrinsic value, the market will reward the company by increasing its P/E ratio. Let’s
have a look at following examples to understand the concept of intrinsic value of
shares.
Operating Decisions
June 2011
Alpha Invesco Research Pvt Ltd www.bullsbook.com
Financing Decisions
Suppose, this company's managers got worried about EPS dilution and dropped the
plans for expanding capacity. Such a decision would actually hurt the shareholders, not
help them. That's because another competing company will expand its capacity and
grab market share from this company. While near-term EPS may not get diluted, the
market will respond by reducing the P/E multiple. EPS dilution is a price well worth
paying for an increase in per-share intrinsic value.

In this section we will keep you updating about latest sector updates, market updates,
interviews & thoughts of investing legends, significant events & much more.
Here are the excerpts from Rakesh Jhunjhunwala’s latest Interview given to a Business
Channel on 14th June 2011.
That is difficult to say, but I would think so, 4800-5000 is a level where markets will
surely find a base, strong support which goes there.
The headwinds are on Indian markets, the most important thing is inflation. Because
inflation controls everything, interest rates, growth and the second headwind is the
government inaction. Although we have very good people at the helm of government
and they know what needs to be done, but politically they are not able to give any
consensus at all.
There was hopes of some big reform after the elections, but nothing has happened up
until now. And unless we get some kind of a reform in the subsidies and some kind of a
clear roadmap for the DTC and goods and sales tax, GST, the markets are waiting for
that.

But would you bang the table and say that or predict rather that in next 3
years, Sensex will be at least 50% higher than where it is?
I am extremely bullish in the longer period. Three months unless and until we get
clarity on the monsoons which we will get by August end, and we will see what kind of
government action comes through. Until then, the markets are going to have a
downward bias. Three years, 5 years, 10 years, I am extremely bullish.
Do you think the golden period for Indian equities is not over?
Let me get this right and this is one point I do not want to get it wrong for our
viewers, near term you are not bullish, but your long-term outlook is still
intact.
Absolutely and near term I mean until things clarify and it depends how events turn
out. If the monsoon is good and commodity prices ease which I personally expect, oil
prices should be at $80-85 and some government action comes through and inflation
may not have come down, but it becomes apparent that in future months, inflation is
going to come down, then the Indian markets will have a very strong ride after that.
So I am saying that the next 2 to 3 months are uncertain depending on how events
turn out. The period for the next 9 months could be very good or could be okay.
But insiders tell me that you have been short commodities of late.

How come you have not made any large investments in last 6 months? Delta
Corp was only large investment you made and that was just before Diwali.
I have applied for a loan to my father-in-law. When he sanctions it, I will disburse it. I
will make it. I am fully invested and all that I have done in my life is investing. So now
even though I have some money, let me buy something else.
But if you had enough capital, do you see currently enough opportunities
which are available?
I am always capital short. If I see the opportunity, I will get the money. So if I see an
opportunity, I will surely invest.
Are you excited that Titan is at an all time high, your biggest investment?
I am happy that the company has proved itself to be an extremely good robust
company, very good growth prospects, now getting very aggressive. I am extremely
very happy really.
But you are still of the view that Titan potentially could be $1 billion
investment for you?
Why not?
Because this business has the highest entry barriers. They have good growth. They
have excellent management. They are expanding very aggressively. They have good
brands. So I think the retailing is going to be one of the biggest growth stories in India
and Titan is in a sector which dominates whether watches or jewellery and now they
are coming to frames. They could enter other areas also. So with such high entry
barriers and growth and very high return on equity and good positive cash flows, Titan
surely is a very sweet spot.

What about the PE multiple if you look at estimates and again I am looking
the consensus estimate?
That is the investor Rakesh Jhunjhunwala, but what is the trader Rakesh
Jhunjhunwala thinking and doing?
Thinking and doing, I am trading. I feel the markets in the next 3 months have more
downsides than upsides.
So broadly speaking can I safely assume that the trader Rakesh Jhunjhunwala
is short or he is not bullish?
So where do you think the new leadership in the markets could emerge from?
I hope that some of those stocks which I own will become part of the Nifty or Sensex.
So apart from Titan, which other stock has the possibility of being part of
Nifty 50?
What makes you so bullish on Lupin because the Indian pharma business...?
It is growing well, they have done well. They are doing well in Japan, America.

BUYING STRATEGY
We recommend buying the stock around current levels of 36 & on all declines to 30 if
any. The stock has fallen from its all time high of 200+ to current levels in the last
couple of years due to the rough period for the industry as a whole with rising input
costs. After a few years of consolidation & flat performance, with the expected revival
in the overall performance of the company & the sector; CINEMAX represents a great
buying opportunity for the long term investors.
To get latest updates on this stock, type BB CINEMAX on your mobile & send SMS to
56767. The status of the recommendation will be updated in case of a significant
change in the overall strategy.

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW
India is the largest film producing market in the world with over 1,000 films released
every year and 3.7 billion tickets sold annually. The Indian film industry is set to top
revenues as it rides new technologies and a booming economy set to expand the
sector at the rate of 18 percent per year. It is also one of the largest employment
sectors in the country. The government of India gave the motion picture industry the
status of an industry in 2001, making it easier for film producers to obtain institutional
financing. According to PwC, the industry is projected to grow at a CAGR of 12.4 per
cent, reaching US$ 3.65 billion in 2014 from US$ 2.03 billion in 2009.

Apart from Indian movies, additional revenue has been generated by international film
studios. They continued to capitalize on the potential of their Hollywood portfolio in the
Indian market place by releasing a larger number of prints and increasing the number
of dubbed film screenings in regional Indian markets.
Similarly, 3D films are now gaining prominence. A case in point was Avatar, James
Cameron’s epic 3D film which opened to packed theatres in India and abroad.
Encouraged by the response that Avatar received in India, many Indian producers
are also planning their own 3D films targeted to the Indian audiences.
In South India single screens have a stronghold and the four southern states account
for nearly 60% of the single screen theatres and only 10% of the multiplexes in the
country.
Current revenue sharing structure between the producers & multiplexes is as above;
Movie earns < Rs. 17.5 Cr Movie earns > Rs. 17.5 Cr
Producers Multiplex Producers Multiplex
The Indian Film Industry enjoys mass appeal in India. Despite the entry of multiple
mediums, Indians have always enjoyed watching movies in the theatre. Besides, with
increasing income of the lower middle class, more people can now afford to watch
movies. Theatre owners on their part are making the movie watching experience more
memorable by offering snacks on the seat, fancy lounge chairs, and home delivery of
tickets even at two hours notice.

As Mumbai's largest theatre chain with 13 properties and 40 screens it accounts for
nearly 32% of the box office collection from Mumbai from multiplexes. (Around 40% of
the total box office collections for Hindi films in the country come from the Mumbai
territory).
Presence in Mumbai, Pune, Banglore, Surat, Delhi, Kochin, Baroda, Kolkata, Hyderabad
& 10 other locations as of now. The company plans to increase its presence in tier 2
cities in the upcoming years.
The company plans to invest Rs 100 crore and double its screens to 200 by 2013. In
the gaming segment, Cinemax will set up a new gaming unit under 'Versus' brand in
Delhi entailing an investment of Rs 15 crore by March this year.
CINEMAX managed to keep its average ticket price at 137 Rs during the year 2010-
2011 with an average occupancy rate of 25 to 26%. With more number of A rated star
releases during financial year 2011-12, the occupancy rates are most likely to go up.
The rising disposable incomes of the working population and increased spend on
optional items, not only in Tier-I but also Tier-II and III cities is expected to continue
impacting the Entertainment & Media industry favorably.
Risk/Threat Factors
Piracy continues to be a major concern for the film industry particularly the Hindi Film
Industry.
The shelf life of movies in theatres has seen a steady decline, where most movies face
a make or break situation in the first weekend itself. The growing importance alternate
distribution platforms like DTH, satellite television and the soon expected 3G enabled
mobile handsets are a threat to the profitability of theatres.

BALANCESHEET
APPLICATION OF FUNDS :
The company has maintained healthy & steady reserves. The company has not diluted
its equity but funding its expansion through debt. The debt component is high
compared to the size of the company; however we feel that the added capacity by
using this debt will provide far greater benefits in the times to come. Company is well
poised to survive in the higher interest scenario compared to its competitors.

Debt to equity ratio is high since the company is funding its expansion via debt. The
debt to equity ratio is low compared with other players in the industry. This leaves the
company in a better shape to compete in the times to come. Operating profit margin
has decreased across the industry in the last couple of years so are CINEMAX’s. We
expect operating profit margins to remain steady around current levels in the times to
come. Net profit margins are hit severely due to flat sales & increased interest cost.
With an increase in sales during the next couple of years, the Net Profit Margins shall
claw back to the original levels of above 10%.
Low growth companies with no expansion plans or with declining business can also
have low debt to equity ratio, since they don’t need to raise debt. Investors should stay
away from such companies. Debt to Equity ratio is not the only tool to Measure
Company’s financial strength. Rather, investors should look for companies which are
growing without taking excessive debt/loans. Also, it is a bad sign if a company starts
raising lot of debt when the industry is in boom. It shows over enthusiasm & short
sightedness of the promoters.
Always look for Operating Profit Margins rather than Net Profit Margins. Since OPM
gives the actual business picture & companies profitability. NPM (Net Profit Margin) is
June 2011
Alpha Invesco Research Pvt Ltd www.bullsbook.com
calculated after deducting taxes, duties, depreciation, interest cost etc. All of these
factors are variable, so they may not give a clear idea about company performance.
Sometimes we see sudden growth in a particular company’s net profits but not in
operating profit. This increase comes by tax refunds, depreciation effect etc. Also,
sometimes we see a sudden rise in company’s income but not in company’s net sales.
This rise in income comes through an asset sale, extraordinary gain etc. Such type of
gain is one time & not permanent. Hence investors should always find an answer to
this question, from where the income & profits are coming ?
We expect 20 to 25% growth per annum in sales for the next 3 years. Even if we
consider conservative estimates, Cinemax India should post a sales turnover / net
sales of 230 crores in financial year 2011-12, 285 crores in 2012-13 & around 350
crores in 2013-14. Company’s OPM (operating profit margin) is most likely to remain in
the range of 18%. Net profit margins are expected to remain around 9 to 10%.
By this logic, CINEMAX will post a net profit of around 18 crores in 2011-12 & around
28 crores in 2012-13 & around 35 crores in 2013-14. This will result into an EPS
(Earning per Share) of 8 in financial year 2011-12, around 12 Rs in 2012-13 & around
15 Rs in 2013-14.

CINEMAX has developed a significant brand image & brand recall among cinegoers.
Though cyclical in nature, Indian cinema is evolving & urban , semi-urban crowd
aspires to prefer experiencing cinema in multiplexes than that of single screen
theatres. With rising disposable incomes & extremely low penetration levels, the sector
represents a huge and untapped opportunity.
The company is aggressively expanding its presence across India. Especially in semi-
urban areas. These efforts are likely to fetch good returns for the business over the
coming years.
FII’s & Mutual Funds have little exposure to the stock & is yet to catch the mass
investor attention. Sooner or later the stock is poised to attract large institutional /
individual investors, which is likely to result in further acceleration of stock price.
The company will maintain its growth rate of more than 20% in the coming years. We
expect the PE to remain around 10 to 12 in the next couple of years coupled with a few
fold rise in the earning per share.
This is the approximate estimated stock price movement in the next 24 months. This is
an overall view. Short term fluctuations in the market may take the prices up or down
than our expected levels.
