Should you buy the shares of ZF Commercial?
The research analysts of the broking firm ICICI Securities have said “ZFCV share price has grown at ~12% CAGR from ~ ₹5,640 in September 2017 thereby outperforming Nifty Auto index in that time. We retain BUY on ZFCV amid cyclical upswing in CV space with ZFCV a key beneficiary, solutions in EV domain and advance technologies supporting its quest for content/vehicle increase. Upgrading our estimates, we now value the company at ₹12,160 i.e. 54x P/E on FY24E EPS (earlier target price ₹10,530)."
Amid cyclical recovery, ZFCV build ~29.8% sales CAGR over FY22-24E, and with potential kit value pegged at ~3x from current levels of ~ ₹45,000- 48,000/unit along with input cost cooling off and premium product offering, margins are seen inching up to the 15% mark by FY24E, are the two key triggers for future price performance of ZF Commercial, said the research analysts of ICICI Securities.

In Q1FY23 conference call, ZFCV spelt out its prowess in technologically advanced products for M&HCV space like ADAS, fleet management service, EV parts for E-Bus, ESC, T-EBS among others. Recent offerings from some OEMs depict the same. We believe this bodes well for the company in maintaining its leadership position and gradually increasing content/vehicle."
