Angel Broking has come out with a research report on Lloyd Electric's Q2FY10 earnings. The research firm has upgraded recommendation on the stock from neutral to buy, with a target price of Rs 76, in its report dated November 6, 2009.

"Lloyd is the largest manufacturer of AC coils in India and also manufactures completely built units of ACs on a contract basis. Most of the AC manufacturers in India feature in the client list of Lloyd. The penetration of ACs is very low in India, at approximately 1.5 - 2%, compared to approximately 20% in developed countries, which will continue to drive the Sales of ACs in India. Further, during FY2009, the company has acquired a plant in Czechoslovakia, from Luvata, which would give Lloyd a foothold in Europe and add to its top-line and bottom-line. At the CMP, the stock trades at 3.4x its FY2011E EPS of Rs 15.1. The company enjoys excellent positioning in the AC market in India and, we believe, that the stock has a limited downside from its current level. In light of the changed business dynamics and consequently revised estimates, we upgrade our recommendation from neutral to buy, with a target price of Rs76", says Angel Broking.
