As countries race to meet the COP26 climate change agreement, governments globally are focusing on the renewable sector and setting ambitious targets to reduce the economy’s emission intensity. Thus, creating huge opportunities for wealth creation in the renewable sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this article, we will analyze Suzlon share price, a leading wind energy company in India, and assess its long-term growth potential in light of emerging global<\/a> conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Overview of India\u2019s Renewable Energy Sector<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Indian government has set an ambitious goal of constructing 500 GW of non-fossil fuel energy capacity, with a share of renewable energy<\/a> in total installed power capacity at 50% by 2030. And, the share of wind energy is expected to be 140 GW.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

India’s total installed wind energy capacity is 42GW, as of 31st December 2022. As a result, India plans<\/a> to build 100 GW of wind energy capacity over the next eight years. Let’s see how Suzlon share price will benefit from the upcoming opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>History of Suzlon Energy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Suzlon Energy was founded in 1995 by Tulsi Tanti, a mechanical engineer by education who later became famous as a wind man of India.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tulsi Tanti began his career in his family’s textile business in Surat, Gujarat, but the company struggled due to high operating costs and frequent power outages. So, to mitigate the impact of expensive power and power outages, Mr. Tanti began looking into alternative sources of stable power and purchased two wind turbines to generate his own electricity. His success caught the attention of others in the business community in his solution, prompting Mr. Tanti to leave the family business and start Suzlon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over the years, through multiple technological collaborations and manufacturing excellence,  Suzlon has established itself as a leading wind energy player.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Suzlon has a presence in 17 countries on six continents with over 5,800 workforces and a total installed wind energy capacity of 19.7 GW as of 31st December 2022. Its cumulative market share in India stands at 33%. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company has a market cap of \u20b99,805 crores (as of 25th Feb 2023), and due to the company\u2019s poor financial health, the Suzlon share price has fallen below \u20b910 and has become a penny stock. However, Suzlon shows signs of a financial turnaround on the back of strong revenue growth and order book. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Suzlon Business Overview<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Suzlon has all its manufacturing facilities across India, producing every component in-house for installing windmills, from wind turbine generators and blades to towers. It follows a vertically integrated low-cost supply chain to maintain its leadership position in the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It produces wind turbine generators ranging from 0.6MW to 3+MW suitable across diverse climatic conditions, including low wind sites found commonly in India. Suzlon provides end-to-end solutions to its customers, from manufacturing and supply chain management, and installations, to lifetime asset management & support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company divided its operations into four business segments- Sale of wind turbine generators, Foundry & Forging, Operation and Management Services (OMS), and Others. The sale of wind turbine generators generates most of the company’s revenue among the four business segments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In FY22, the company reported a 97.89% jump in revenue at \u20b96519.95 crores compared to FY21 at \u20b93,294.65 crores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Suzlon Management Profile<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Mr. Tulsi Tanti, Chairman, and Managing Director led Suzlon. However, due to his untimely death on October 1st, 2022, Vinod Tanti has taken over as Chairman and Managing Director. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Current ratio: <\/strong>The Company’s current ratio was 1.20 times in FY22, improved marginally from 1.27 times in FY21.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interest coverage ratio:<\/strong> Suzlon has improved its interest coverage ratio to 0.90 in FY22 from 0.29 in FY21 due to strong revenue growth and improved liquidity. And, in 9M FY23, the interest coverage ratio further improved to 1.9 times, signaling a better financial position for the company.

Suzlon Share Price Target Analysis<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Since its stock market<\/a> listing, Suzlon share price has failed to create wealth for its shareholders. Suzlon IPO<\/a> was launched on 29th September 2005, with an issue size of \u20b91,496.3 crores at \u20b9510 per share. Due to the poor financial health of the company and its high debt-to-equity ratio, Suzlon share price failed to attract investors in the stock market.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, the high pledge percentage of promotors’ holding – over 80% – is another factor for low investor confidence in Suzlon shares.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The stock underwent a split on the 10:2 ratio on 21st January 2008.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Suzlon share price in the last three years has given a CAGR<\/a> return of 48%, rising from \u20b92.20 to a high of \u20b911.20. In the last 10 years, the company has not paid dividends to shareholders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Suzlon Fundamental Analysis<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Suzlon share price has not performed as expected since its listing in the stock market and has witnessed a steady decline in value due to high debt levels and losses. However, the company has taken steps for financial turnaround and has become a strong player in India\u2019s renewable energy sector. Some of the steps taken to support the falling Suzlon share price include the following-<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Deleveraging<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In recent quarters, the company has taken numerous steps to deleverage its balance sheet to improve its market competitiveness. Improved interest coverage ratio and debt-to-equity are some positive indications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another significant step the company has taken is refinancing its debt. On May 24, 2022, Suzlon concluded a debt refinancing agreement replacing 16 lenders consortium led by State Bank of India with another two lenders consortium led by REC Limited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

REC\u2019s better understanding of the company’s power sector and operational needs will likely aid Suzlon in its deleveraging process. Additionally, the company is looking to offload some of its non-core assets to give momentum to the turnaround process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Right Issue<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Suzlon successfully conducted a \u20b91200 crore rights issue on October 20, 2022, of which \u20b9300 crores will go towards debt reduction, and the remaining sum will be used to meet the company’s operational needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Steady Order Flow<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

As per the release by the company, Suzlon has a wind firm order book of 782 MW as on 31st December 2022. And, further India invites bids for 8GW wind projects annually; Suzlon is likely to emerge as a key beneficiary from the development due to its unique capabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Key Risks<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Key risks that can impact Suzlon share price target growth are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Debt repayment obligation<\/strong>: From \u20b913,000 crores of debt in FY20, the company successfully reduced close to 80% of its debt at the end of H1 FY23, lowering finance costs and improving the interest-coverage ratio. According to the FY22 Annual Report, the refinanced debt with REC requires the company to repay a significant portion of the debt over the next twelve months from the date of disbursement, which it will accomplish through the sale of non-core assets and the right issue. Any delay in selling non-core assets could impact the debt repayment plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Availability of adequate working capital: <\/strong>The company operates with limited working capital, which limits its progressive growth. Furthermore, because the company earns the majority of its revenue from the sale of wind turbine generators, which is a capital-intensive business, the inability to maintain adequate working capital on a continuous basis can result in the risk of lost orders or execution delays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Supply chain risk<\/strong>: In the face of emerging global situations, supply chain risk is a constant risk, adding to the cost and timely availability of components.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Business volume risk: <\/strong>Lower realization of wind tariffs is a big risk for the company and can adversely impact the company\u2019s finances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>Suzlon Share Price Future Growth Potential<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The government\u2019s prime focus on ramping up the share of renewable energy in India\u2019s energy mix and favorable policies is expected to benefit renewable energy companies. Suzlon’s net worth has turned positive after more than nine years, and a significant reduction in debt should favor the company\u2019s fortunes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Suppose the company reports a steady EBITDA level in the next few quarters, accompanied by strong order flow. In that case, Suzlon could become a financially strong player in the market among other players like Seimens Gamesa and Envision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
