Cummins' Bid For Meritor Underlines The Value Of Quality ICE/EV Component Portfolios

Cummins announced that it is acquiring Meritor for $36.50/share in cash. Meritor brings a market-leading position in axles and brakes in commercial vehicles and further accelerates Cummins' efforts to consolidate ICE powertrain components. Meritor also brings very credible electrification technology focused around e-axles, giving Cummins more options for development and integration in electrified powertrains. At a 10% premium to my own fair value estimate, I think Cummins' bid is fair, as it removes execution and cycle risk at a premium price.

Meritor Already Discounting A Significant Correction In Commercial Vehicles

Meritor posted a healthy beat relative to sell-side expectations in the June quarter, as the company leverages strong Class 8 production volume. The Class 8 cycle will likely peak in 2022, but the fall-off in 2023 may not be as sharp, and medium-duty trucks should keep growing into 2023. Meritor has built a credible e-axle program to participate in truck electrification, and the company's near-term $500M business win target looks secure. Management has executed well on cost/efficiency programs, and the shares seem to overly discount the coming Class 8 peak, offering an attractive return from today's price.
