We find the two-year volume CAGR of 7.6% (21% volume growth in 1QFY19) to be extremely encouraging, despite rural areas (50% of overall sales) growing at a similar run-rate to urban areas. We are happy to see competitive intensity abating in categories where sales were impacted by Patanjali’s pricing strategy and high-decibel ad campaigns. In fact, the Patanjali effectseems to be waning, as the company faces supply-chain complications, quality-related issues, and as it focuses on multiple categories. Health supplements (Chyawanprash and Honey) delivered the third consecutive quarter of c.15% revenue growth. EBITDA growth of 25% yoy was way ahead of our estimates, despite substantial A&P spends (up 33% yoy) due to a tight lid on operating costs (staff cost / other expenses were up only 10%/5%). International business (30% of sales) continued to recover in Q1FY19 (second consecutive quarter of +10% growth) driven by strong growth in the MENA region (appointment of standalone distributor in Saudi Arabia is aiding growth). Best play on rural recovery: We believe the worst of the headwinds (8% EBITDA CAGR over FY14-18) the lingering effect of demonetisation, and GST-related disruption given high dependence on the wholesale channel are behind us. Competitive intensity should moderate now, with Patanjali facing challenges (mentioned above). We expect consumer demand in rural areas to be much stronger in FY19, because of MSP hikes (at least 1.5x of production cost for all crops), the forecast of a normal monsoon, farm- loan waiver in key states, and higher fiscal spending towards creation of social/physical infrastructure ahead of General Elections in 2019. We see Dabur as a key beneficiary of the improving rural economy (50% of overall sales) with the right product-portfolio mix for this audience. We increase our target multiple to 45x (September 2020 EPS) from 40x earlier (June 2020 EPS), as Dabur is poised for 15%/14% EBITDA/PAT CAGR over FY18-21. Reasons: (1) Management gives preference to volume driven growth over margins. (2) Focus on new product launches (which was muted for a while). (3) Increasing distribution reach. (4) Improving distribution productivity under project Buniyaad. (5) Stability in international operations (Namaste profitability to see sharp improvement). We largely maintain our EPS estimates. It is still our top-pick within the mid-cap FMCG space. We hike our target to Rs 490 vs. Rs 425 earlier. Key risks to our call: (1) Discount-led competition by juice players (ITC etc.) to gain market share, and (2) any factor that hurts the rural economy.

Extremely encouraging performance

INDIA | FMCG | Quarterly Update

2 August 2018

Top takeaways from 1QFY19 Results beat our estimates by a huge margin due to broad-based good performance

across its product portfolio. We find the two-year volume CAGR of 7.6% (21% volume growth in 1QFY19) to be extremely encouraging, despite rural areas (50% of overall sales) growing at a similar run-rate to urban areas.

We are happy to see competitive intensity abating in categories where sales were impacted by Patanjali’s pricing strategy and high-decibel ad campaigns. In fact, the ‘Patanjali effect’ seems to be waning, as the company faces supply-chain complications, quality-related issues, and as it focuses on multiple categories.

Health supplements (Chyawanprash and Honey) delivered the third consecutive quarter of c.15% revenue growth.

EBITDA growth of 25% yoy was way ahead of our estimates, despite substantial A&P spends (up 33% yoy) due to a tight lid on operating costs (staff cost / other expenses were up only 10%/5%).

International business (30% of sales) continued to recover in Q1FY19 (second consecutive quarter of +10% growth) driven by strong growth in the MENA region (appointment of standalone distributor in Saudi Arabia is aiding growth).

Best play on rural recovery: We believe the worst of the headwinds (8% EBITDA CAGR over FY14-18) – the lingering effect of demonetisation, and GST-related disruption given high dependence on the wholesale channel – are behind us. Competitive intensity should moderate now, with Patanjali facing challenges (mentioned above).

We expect consumer demand in rural areas to be much stronger in FY19, because of MSP hikes (at least 1.5x of production cost for all crops), the forecast of a normal monsoon, farm-loan waiver in key states, and higher fiscal spending towards creation of social/physical infrastructure ahead of General Elections in 2019. We see Dabur as a key beneficiary of the improving rural economy (50% of overall sales) with the right product-portfolio mix for this audience. We increase our target multiple to 45x (September 2020 EPS) from 40x earlier (June 2020 EPS), as Dabur is poised for 15%/14% EBITDA/PAT CAGR over FY18-21. Reasons: (1) Management gives preference to volume driven growth over margins. (2) Focus on new product launches (which was muted for a while). (3) Increasing distribution reach. (4) Improving distribution productivity under project Buniyaad. (5) Stability in international operations (Namaste profitability to see sharp improvement). We largely maintain our EPS estimates. It is still our top-pick within the mid-cap FMCG space. We hike our target to Rs 490 vs. Rs 425 earlier. Key risks to our call: (1) Discount-led competition by juice players (ITC etc.) to gain market share, and (2) any factor that hurts the rural economy.

DABUR INDIA LTD QUARTERLY UPDATE

Conference Call takeaways Rural areas grew at similar rate (24%) as urban; however, management

expects rural growth to outpace urban growth by 2-3% in the rest of FY19, driven by increase in government spending, good monsoon, and higher MSP.

Expect raw material inflation to inch-up in 2QFY19

Domestic business Health care (32% of FY18 domestic sales)

Health supplements (17% of FY18 domestic sales) grew by 28%, led by strong double-digit growth in honey (c. 42% yoy) and Chyawanprash. It has regained lost market share in honey from Patanjali through price cuts, improving product quality, and effective marketing strategy.

Disgestive (6% of FY18 domestic sales) grew by 22% driven by strong performance in Hajmola. It launched Dabur Hajmola Chat Cola in Q1FY19 along with Dabur Hajmola Amrud in FY18, which saw good traction, leading to market-share gains.

OTC and Ethicals (6% of FY18 domestic sales) grew by 13% and 23% led by

Honitus and others. Dabur Honitus Hot Sip (Kaadha) which was launched in FY18 has seen a strong response from customers, which further boosted growth in OTC.

Home and personal care (50% FY18 domestic sales)

Home care (7% of FY18 domestic sales) grew by 17%, mainly led by Odonil and Sanifresh.

Hair care (21% of FY18 domestic sales) saw strong growth double-digit in hair oils (c.19%) and shampoo (c.30%). Focused marketing initiatives and improved bottle saliency led shampoo growth; Dabur gained 70bps market share on price-warrior brands (Sarson and Brahmi hair oil), traction in the coconut hair oil segment, and A&P support for Dabur Amla.

Oral care (17% of FY18 domestic sales) grew by 17% led by Dabur Red toothpaste, while Dabur Red Gel (launched in FY18) grew reasonably. Babool declined marginally because of competitive intensity in the category, but to bring back growth, it will re-launch Babool with a new formulation in FY19. Colgate (which has been aggressive in terms of pricing on the herbal side) is putting pressure on economy brands, but Dabur plans to mitigate the impact through higher ad-spends and product activation.

Foods (18% of FY18 domestic sales)

Beverages grew by 27% driven by strong double-digit growth in Real and Activ; higher ad-spends, new product offerings, and discounts, led to regained lost market share from discount players (Paper Boat). It launched Real Ethnic Range – Masala Guava, Masala Pomegranate, and Alphonso Mango in Q1.

International business:

MENA saw healthy traction due to appointment of Separate distributor in Saudi Arabia and higher crude oil price support recovery in the region. Egypt/Saudi Arabia grew 31%/54% respectively.

Namaste reported low single-digit growth, reversing the declining trend of last year, but the company expects Namaste to turnaround, both in terms of revenue and profitability in FY19, due to localized manufacturing, launch of Curls Unleashed (natural product), tie-up with Wal-Mart, and increased geographical salience from the high-margin Africa region.
