3M India BUY
ICICI Securities Limited Maintained
is the author and
distributor of this report Strong recovery in Healthcare; Safety &
Industrials continue to underperform Rs24,722
Q3FY22 result review While Q3FY22 results were below our expectations, we note 3M India has reported
and TP/earnings revision revenue and PAT growth of 35.6% and 37.8% YoY, respectively, in 9MFY22.
Q3FY22 was impacted by muted growth in Safety and Industrial segment (1% YoY)
Diversified and steep inflation in input prices as well freight cost. However, we remain
enthused by 45.7% revenue growth in Healthcare segment. Increase in
manufacturing activities in India post PLI and higher budgetary allocations to
Target price: Rs29,000
investments would potentially be a medium-term positive for 3M India, in our view.
Earnings revision However, we expect increase in RM inflation to impact near-term earnings. We
(%) FY22E FY23E remain positive on 3M India due to competitive advantages like (1) strong brands,
Sales ↓ 0.0 ↓ 0.0 (2) established distribution network and global relationships with large
EBITDA ↓ 9.4 ↓ 3.3 manufacturers and (3) access to parent’s technology pool. We cut FY22-23E
EPS ↓ 9.5 ↓ 3.7
earnings to factor in muted Q3FY22 and higher inflationary pressures. Maintain
Target price revision BUY with a revised DCF-based TP of Rs29,000 (implied P/E 60x of FY24E EPS).
Rs29,000 from Rs31,000  Q3FY22 result: 3M India reported revenue growth of 11.4% YoY (2-year CAGR of
5.3%). However, EBITDA and adj. PAT declined 23.5% and 20.9% YoY, respectively.

 Maintain BUY: We model 3M India to report revenue and PAT CAGR of 19.9% and
42.5%, respectively over FY21-FY24E with steady improvement in RoE over FY21-
24E. We retain BUY with a revised DCF-based target price of Rs29,000 (prior TP:
