Result Update

Margins slide on higher input costs…

Arvind’s Q4FY17 consolidated revenues were marginally above our

estimates. However, profitability slightly missed our estimates

Revenues for the quarter grew 10.4% YoY to | 2464.8 crore (I-direct

estimate: | 2409.3 crore). Growth was fuelled by 22% YoY growth in

its brand & retail segment, which came in at | 829.2 crore. Standalone

textile business added to consolidated growth with revenues of

| 1459.5 crore (up 7.7% YoY)

‘Power’ brands (excluding Tommy Hilfiger) grew 21% YoY to | 515

crore (5.4% LTL). “Unlimited”, post completion of restructuring,

continued its growth trajectory in the current quarter reporting growth

of 29% YoY

Garments accelerated standalone growth with 28% YoY rise in

revenues to | 324 crore. In addition to the same, wovens posted

growth of 6.4% to | 535 crore while denim revenues were flattish at

| 462 crore. Sales volume for denim fabric was down 4.4% YoY to 24

million metre whereas volumes for woven were up 6.5% YoY to 31

million metre

Increase in cotton prices (up 17% YoY) coupled with higher share of

traded goods, adversely impacted consolidated EBITDA margins,

which fell 260 bps YoY to 9.1% vs. estimated 11.4%. Subsequently,

absolute EBITDA de-grew 14% YoY to | 223.5 crore vs. estimate

| 273.5 crore

Moderation of debt (down 19% YoY) resulted in a decline in interest

costs (down 35% YoY). In addition to the same, higher other income

(up 49% YoY) and lower tax rate (12% vs. 21% in Q4FY16) to an

extent moderated the PAT decline, which was at | 96.9 crore (I-direct

estimate: | 98.5 crore)

B&R segment margins improve led by ‘Power’ brands

The momentum in the B&R segment continued in Q4FY17 as it reported

robust revenue growth of 21.7% YoY to | 829.2 crore. Strong growth in

‘Power’ brands, coupled with improving profitability in ‘Unlimited’ and

speciality retail stores led to a strong expansion in EBITDA margins of

B&R segment by 350 bps YoY to 7.1%. Going forward, we expect the

momentum in B&R segment to continue resulting in revenue CAGR of

20% in FY16-19E.

Increase in cotton prices impacts profitability of standalone business…

Higher cotton prices impacted the profitability of the textile segment as

operating margins declined 260 bps YoY to 12.7%. Also, average

realisation (per metre) for denim and woven fabrics remained flattish YoY

to | 181 and | 167, respectively. At a consolidated level, we expect

operating margins to stay under pressure due to higher share of B&R

segment in revenue mix (low margin business) and high cotton prices.

Robust growth in B&R segment expected to continue; maintain BUY…

Brands of ALBL are uniquely positioned as the apt mix across the apparel

value/gender chain. In addition, strong EBITDA growth for the B&R

segment in Q4FY17 indicates operating leverage playing in favour of the

company. Enhanced focus would continue to be on speciality retail

segment, which comprises brands like GAP, Sephora & Aeropostale, The

Children’s place (TCP). We believe that as revenues from these brands

scale up, RoCEs would drastically improve. With visibility on profitable

earnings, Arvind continues to stay our preferred pick in the textile sector.

Technical textiles - future ahead

After the recent stake dilution, the company now intends to focus on the

textile division with major thrust in the field of “advanced material”

(erstwhile technical textiles). Technical textiles has immense potential,

particularly in developing countries. India currently accounts for less than

5% of the world technical textile production (value). Indian technical

textile industry has grown at a CAGR of 12% in 2008-16 from | 36755

crore to | 92499 crore. The growth has been driven by higher domestic

consumption and increased exports. Though still in the nascent stage,

Arvind has been constantly building on the technical textile business and

has been looking for newer opportunities for joint ventures with global

companies to either bring in technology or access to international

customers. As of FY16, the company had made investments of ~| 200

crore. The management believes that due to its varied application and

utility, technical textiles would catapult Arvind to the high growth phase.

Focus on specialty retail store

The management of ALBL is keen on developing “Specialty retail”

channel. Formats under the specialty retail would include multi-offerings

under Unlimited, TCP, Aeropostale, GAP and Sephora. The company is

focusing on setting up more speciality retail stores, which would

contribute ~30% of the brand & retail revenue in FY18. The management

expects to break even from this segment in three years of its operations

and generate positive EBITDA in the range of 7-9% by FY22.

Nnow.com: Arvind’s foray into omni-channel play

In the quest to upgrade customer experience through Omni channel and

leverage its global brands on a digital platform Arvind has launched

‘nnnow.com’, which provides access to a complete range of Arvind

brands online. The current stores pan-India are acting as warehouses for

the online platform. Approximately, 40-50% of the online business is

fulfilled through its own stores in the vicinity. Investments made in Arvind

internet for FY17 were around | 55-60 crore.

Unlimited to take charge of Megamart; LTL of 28% impressive FY17

To counter the decline in margins, the management has repositioned

Megamart from a discount store to value retail with a higher proportion of

private labels. The Megamart was rechristened Unlimited, which would

not take into account that Arvind’s value retail business has been

struggling with sluggish revenue growth and low margins over the last

couple of years. The strategy is to attract customers by offering discounts

on reputed brands like Arrow, Park Avenue, Van Heusen and try to

convert them into buying its own private labels. Also, several small stores

have been closed while some large format stores have been opened

resulting in a reduction in the number of “Unlimited” stores from 216 in

FY12 to 86 stores in as on FY17.

The large format “Unlimited” stores have been positioned as a size of

10000 sq ft per store. Arvind currently has ~20% area under the power

Unlimited format and is planning to scale it up to 50% in the next two

years. The shift in favour of large format stores has led the area per store

for Unlimited to increase from 3100 sq ft in FY12 to 8446 sq ft in FY17.

The repositioning of Unlimited as value retail is expected to boost

revenue growth and enhance margins, going ahead.

Valuation

Standalone business valued at 3.5x FY19 EV/EBITDA

Given the company’s expertise in manufacturing garments, coupled with

its positioning as the most preferred franchisee/distribution partner in

India, it is poised to benefit from an increase in apparel demand. Arvind’s

standalone revenue, which includes textiles and garments, grew at a

CAGR of 17% in FY11-16. Majority of this growth was driven by growth in

its fabric division, which grew at 16% CAGR in FY11-16. The increase in

fabrics revenues was mainly supported by 16% CAGR in woven, followed

by denim revenues, which grew at a modest CAGR of 4%.

Apart from fabrics, the company manufactures garments for brands like

Tommy Hilfiger, Calvin Klein, H&M, M&S, FCUK and Jack & Jones.

Revenues from the same grew at a CAGR of 17% in 2012-16. Over the

past few years, the company’s investments in augmenting its garmenting

capacities were insignificant. Arvind now intends to double its garmenting

capacity and has targeted 40 million capacity by 2020. Further, currently

only 7% of fabrics produced are used for production of garments that the

company intends to increase to 25%. With the enhancement of capacity,

standalone revenues would be mainly driven by garments. Garment

revenues have increased at a CAGR of 17% in 2012-16, which is further

expected to grow at a CAGR of ~20% in FY16-19E. Furthermore,

additional investments in new segments like technical textiles will drive

standalone revenues. We believe the standalone business has different

dynamics and has very different working capital cycle. Thus, we value the

standalone business on the basis of EV/EBITDA. We roll over the year and

value the standalone business at 3.5x FY19E EV/EBITDA.

Brands & retail business - Recent deal to re-rate valuations at 2.5x

The theme around brands and positioning apparel as a ‘bridge to luxury’

segment has seen only a handful of players like Madura and Page getting

it right and being successful. The growth from branded apparel has been

lumpy with close to 200 international brands currently present in the India

fashion segment. Currently, Arvind has four power brands with each

having a turnover of ~| 2700 crore. The company estimates that each of

these brands would be scaled up to | 5000 crore. Over a decade, the

company believes it has added sufficient number of brands and now

wants to focus on its monetisation. The recent restructuring of Megamart

and closure of unsuccessful ventures like Debenhams and Next affirm the

management efforts to focus on profitable growth.

In addition, garmenting capabilities of the company position it as the most

preferred partner in India. Majority of brands in India, though not

profitable, are targeting revenue growth. However, profitability will creep

in once significant scale is achieved. To quote the management, “When a

brand attains a turnover of | 100-150 crore it gets out of negative EBITDA.

By the time it touches | 250 crore, RoCE becomes attractive. By the time

it gets to | 350 crore, a brand makes tonnes of money”. With the currently

successful launch of GAP store and target audience for Aeropostale, it is

well poised to create a number of powerbrands by 2020. We believe that

one of the brands would be converted into a powerbrand in 2018. On

account of this, powerbrand revenues are expected to grow at 33% CAGR

while due to the shift, growth of other brands would be lower at 11%

CAGR in 2015-19. We believe this business would be valued on the basis

of sales the company is able to achieve and following this, the estimated

market capitalisation it would demand. We value its brands & retail

business using the market capitalisation to sales method. Thus, we value

the company at an average multiple of 2.5x and arrive at a value of | 449

per share.
