Research Report: Davy on Food and Beverages September 4th, 2012

2 Davy Research

"Squeezed middle" a big challenge for consumer-facing companies The modern era of consumerism — the thought system that encourages the consumption of goods and services in ever greater quantities — could not be as it is without the continual expansion of the middle class. If the 20th century was marked by one phenomenon, it was the swelling of the middle class demographic. What may be happening to the middle class therefore, actually or in terms of perception, is of great significance. If it is compressing and if this continues, the behavioural change that will follow will impact negatively on consumer spending. There is no all-encompassing, single definition of 'middle class'. It can be defined by income, occupation or relative social standing (as between 'lower' and 'upper' classes). But as well as objective measurements, there is also individual, subjective measurement based on the possessions considered necessary for middle class status like home ownership, a secure job, health insurance or a college education. In a report issued on August 31st ('Public says a secure job is the ticket to the middle class'), the Pew Research Center1 highlights a substantial change in the ranking of possessions considered a pre-requisite of being middle class over the past two decades. It notes that 20 years ago, home ownership was essential to being considered middle class — 70% of Americans agreed to this. This was revealed in a 1991 Time/CNN/ Yankelovich survey. Other possessions considered essential to being middle class (and the percentage of Americans agreeing) at that time were: two or more cars (48%); a college education (46%); stocks, bonds or other investments (41%); and a white-collar job (33%). Pew notes that there are wording differences between its just completed survey and the previous one. While the latter asked about the significance of a white-collar job, Pew asked about a secure job. These wording differences are significant not because of the words themselves but because the circumstances in which the questions were asked are very different — circumstance, actual and anticipated, informs perception. The context for the Pew survey is persistently high unemployment over the past four years and a now widely acknowledged longer-term decline in the share of the working-age public that is employed. For example in 2011, the male employment-to-population ratio was, at 71%, 10 percentage points lower than a decade previously and was at its lowest level since 1951 (89%) when the data were first collated by the US Bureau of Labour Statistics. In addition, median income has been declining. In an earlier report (August 22nd, 2012), Pew noted that since 2000, the middle class has shrunk in size, fallen backward in income (measured as overall mean family income) and wealth, and shed some — but by no means all — of its characteristic faith in the future.

1 The Pew Research Center is a non-partisan fact tank that provides information on the issues, attitudes and trends shaping America and the world. The centre conducts public opinion polling, demographic studies, media content analysis and other empirical social science research. It does not take positions on policy issues.

In light of the unemployment and income trend, it is hardly surprising that in the Pew survey, 86% of respondents said that having a secure job was necessary to be considered middle class. Other possessions believed to be necessary (and the percentage of respondents agreeing to this) were: health insurance (66%); home ownership (45%); college education (37%); and stocks, bonds and other investments (28%). Owning two or more cars is no longer considered a key qualifying possession in the Pew survey and when compared with the survey of two decades ago, there has been a radical change in the ranking of a secure job and home ownership while health insurance — which for many Americans comes through one's job — now features as "an essential ticket to a middle class life". As noted at the outset, the consumerism of the 20th century needed a burgeoning and prosperous middle class. If, as has been observed by many commentators, we are observing a secular squeeze on the middle class demographic, then it is improbable that the consumer expenditure trends in western societies of recent decades will remain unaltered. Part of the evolution of the middle class since the 1950s was the increase in the employment of women. In the US, the female employment-to-population ratio in 1950 was 36%. It rose linearly until 2001 when it reached 68%. But the decade since 2001, according to Pew, was the first in the modern era when women aged 16 to 64 have not made gains in employment rates over the prior decade. In 2011, the level was 62%. To what extent current trends in consumption (i.e. depressed food volume sales) are correlated with the change in the middle class demographic is unknown. But survey results like those of Pew do provide a context in which to measure and assess this. The "squeezed middle" provides a big challenge for consumer-facing companies.

Research Report: Davy on Food and Beverages September 4th, 2012

Stock focus: Britvic

• Britvic has had a difficult FY 2012 to date, with bad summer weather compounded by a recall of the key Fruit Shoot brand in the UK and some exports markets following problems with the new cap design.

• At the time of the second profit warning of the year in July, Britvic announced that it now expects the recall to cost £15-25m at the PBT line across the current and next financial year. The anticipated impact in the year to end-September 2012 is estimated at £10-18m with the remainder in 2013.

• Britvic has decided to re-supply customers with an alternative market-proven sports cap in the short term. If this re-stock has gone to plan, Fruit Shoot should be on shelves in limited supply now. However, the brand will not be back to full historic volume levels for six months.

• The lower profitability this year has called into question Britvic's ability to maintain its traditional dividend payout ratio. In November, the board will have visibility on FY 2012 preliminaries as well as two months' trading of FY 2013. At that point, it will make a call on whether the fruit shoot effects are one-offs or not. If they are, we are likely to see a dividend broadly in line with the progressive high payout ratios of recent years (c.50%). Aside from Fruit Shoot, there have been some bright points in the business recently. The Pepsi relationship in the UK remains excellent, and Pepsi is continuing to take share in this market. In addition, the franchise business in the US is starting to develop, even if the profit contributions will continue to be immaterial in the short term.

• Our stance on Britvic is 'Neutral'. The stock is well supported by a dividend yield of c.5.5% but the upside is constrained by the difficult trading conditions in core markets and persistent input cost pressures. Britvic trades on a P/E of 10.3x, a c.35% discount to the wider beverage sector.

Research Report: Davy on Food and Beverages September 4th, 2012

Stock focus: Total Produce

• Total Produce has traded in a tight range between 39c and 45c for most of the last two years. It briefly moved up towards 50c in early 2012 but failed to maintain that level. It has now built a very solid base and should it take out 45c, it can easily move towards 50c and ultimately higher.

• Despite the fact that defensive names have been in vogue for most of 2012, Total Produce has failed to ride this wave. It has underperformed the market this year, which is a surprise as it possesses many of the defensive qualities that investors were looking for.

• At less than 6x on a P/E basis, its valuation is below its long-term and recent average. The stock has de-rated in an absolute and relative sense over the past 18 months. This is despite earnings increasing consistently.

• Revenues have grown consistently on an annual basis since the de-merger. This is encouraging given the difficulties at a macro level since 2007. Profits have followed a similar trend with management always focused on margin delivery.

• One of the reasons for Total Produce's consistency is its broad product and geographic spread. It has leading positions in many key products and markets in Europe.

Pernod Ricard: Profit a touch behind consensus; succession plans in place

FACTS: Pernod Ricard has reported (August 30th) full-year results to end-June 2012. ANALYSIS: Pernod reported sales of €8,215m (Davy: €8,179m) with organic growth of 8% (Davy: 7.4%). Profit from recurring operations was €2,114m (Davy: €2,128m) with organic growth of 9.2% (Davy: 10.0%). Pernod's guidance for organic profit growth for the FY was "close to 8%" so it beats its target but consensus had expected 9.6%, so it's a touch behind that. As is customary, Pernod will provide guidance at its Q1 results, but it did say that it is confident in its ability to deliver solid growth this year. This assumes a slowdown in the pace of global economic growth in mature as well as emerging markets, ongoing difficult situation in Western Europe (impact of debt and public deficit reduction measures), continued good growth in the US and strong growth in emerging markets. A number of board changes were announced following the passing of former CEO and chairman Patrick Ricard. Alex Ricard is to succeed the current CEO, Pierre Pringuet, in January 2015. He is appointed deputy CEO and COO. He was also co-opted as a director to replace Patrick Ricard. He joined the group in 2003 and was appointed CEO of Irish Distillers in 2008. In 2011, he joined the group general management as managing director in charge of the distribution network. Daniele Ricard is appointed chairman of the board of directors, and Pierre Pringuet is appointed vice-chairman of the board and will continue to act as CEO (until 2015). EPS was 4.53c (Davy: 4.62c). Net debt was €9,363m, a decrease of €385m before translation adjustments (a similar decrease to last year). Net debt-to-EBITDA was 3.8x compared to 4.4x, triggering a further reduction of 15bps in its interest rate. Overall operating margin was 25.7%, up 75 bps. Gross margin rose 8%, expanding to 61.4%, up 111bps. Advertising and promotion (A&P) investment as a percentage of sales increased slightly to 19.1%, with an 11% increase in investment in emerging markets and a -2% decline in European spend. Structure costs as a percentage of sales increased in line with sales, +8%, with spend very much skewed to emerging markets (+63%) whereas structure cost increased below inflation in Western Europe. Emerging markets (39% of group profit) recorded FY sales growth of 17%. Mature market grew sales 2%. Pernod's top-14 brands (60% of group sales) grew 10% in value, reflecting favourable price/mix of six. Thirteen out of the 14 brands reported growth (Ricard declined as it was affected by the duty increase in France). The following brands showed the strongest growth: Martell (25%), Royal Salute (23%), The Glenlivet (19%) and Jameson (18%). Premium brands represented 73% of sales, compared to 71% in the previous year. Q4 organic sales grew rose 4% (Davy: 3.4%). Technical effects from the impact in France from distributor de-stocking continued into Q4. Excluding these technical effects, Q4 growth was +7%, in line with the underlying trend in the year.

Divisionally, Q4 organic sales growth was: Asia +14% (Davy: +16%); Americas +9% (Davy: +7%); Europe 0% (Davy: +2%) ; and France -25% (Davy: -33%). Asia/RoW (39% of group profit), with FY organic sales growth of +15% (Davy: 15.5%) and operating profit growth of 21% (Davy: 22.9%) remained the driving force for group growth. This was primarily due to Asia, particularly China, India, Vietnam, Taiwan and duty-free markets. Americas (29% of group profit) recorded organic sales growth of +6% (Davy: 5.3%) and operating profit growth of 4% (Davy: 4.1%). In the US, sales growth accelerated to 5%, driven by the continued success of Jameson. Absolut did better in the second half in the US. Brazil showed strong growth (+13%) with the top-14 up 26%. Mexico sales declined (-12%) due to the overhaul of the operating model there. Europe (23% of group profit) recorded organic sales growth of +2% (Davy: 4.3%) and operating profit growth of 4% (Davy: 1.5%). In Eastern Europe, sales growth accelerated to 16% (9% in the previous year). Western Europe showed a slight decline (-1%) over the 12 months. This was primarily attributable to Spain (-4%), the UK (-4%), Greece (-13%) and Italy (-13%). France (9% of group profit) saw organic sales growth of -1% (Davy: -2.8%) following the excise duty hike (14% on average) in January. Operating profit growth was down -3% (Davy: -4.5%). DAVY VIEW: We continue to believe that Pernod can deliver growth in the top tier of the consumer sector. Faster growth in its top-14 brands (primarily Cognac, Scotch and Irish) will improve sales mix, cash-flow and operating leverage. Pernod’s model of investing disproportionately in its top-14 brands and cementing leading positions in faster-growing emerging markets (China and India in particular) is driving its high-single-digit to double-digit organic operating profit growth model. We reiterate our 'Outperform' stance. Price rating: Outperform (22/03/11; previously Neutral, issued 27/04/10).

Glanbia: Strong H1 led by Global Nutritionals

FACTS: Glanbia has released (August 29th) its first-half results. It notes a solid start to the financial year and as a result, it is raising its full-year outlook to 8-10% growth on a constant currency basis (previously 5-7%). Our own current forecast is for FY EPS growth of 9.4% on a reported basis. Separately, the company has also outlined plans to create a strategic dairy process joint venture in association with the Glanbia Co-operative Society. ANALYSIS: On a constant currency basis, revenues and profits (EBITA) for the group (including JVs) increased by 1.1% and 1.5% respectively. Total group EBITA margin increased by 10bps. The US Cheese and Nutritionals division grew revenues and profits (EBIT) by an impressive 8.6% and 18.4% respectively year-on-year. This resulted in a margin increase of 10.2%, a 90bps improvement

on the previous year. The revenue growth was split 4.1% volume and 4.5% price/mix. Ongoing efficiency measures in US cheese enabled the business to generate a similar EBIT out-turn to last year despite lower revenues. Global Nutritionals performed exceptionally well in the period, accounting as expected for almost all of the underlying EBIT growth in the group. The result was achieved against a backdrop of higher raw material costs, most notably whey. This is a benefit for the Ingredients Technologies division — a seller of value-added whey solutions — but a challenge for the Performance Nutrition division. The company expects some easing in whey costs in Q4 as new supplies come on-stream and this will be welcomed as the company notes that price elasticity appears to creeping into the segment. However, the overall outlook for Global Nutritionals is positive and a strong year-on-year performance is expected. Dairy Ireland failed to repeat the very strong out-turn of H1 2011. Operating profit fell 14.5% as the company faced a very challenging environment especially in its Dairy Ingredients Ireland segment. The lag between falling selling prices and raw material input cost reductions impacted margins. This out-turn is as expected. The severe drought that is impacting the US currently may put upward pressure on global prices in the second half but it is perhaps too early to build this into assumptions. Overall for the division, which includes Consumer Products and Agri, revenues fell 4.7%. Profits are forecast to be lower year-on-year. Operating profit at the JVs and associates fell by 30% year-on-year on a constant currency basis. As with Dairy Ireland, this part of the business faces a difficult comparator given the strong market dynamic that existed in the cheese market in H1 2011. The H1 2012 out-turn is slightly ahead of the three-year average. The full-year performance is expected to be modestly reduced on 2011. The board is recommending a 10% increase in the dividend to 3.66c per share. Net debt at the half-year decreased slightly year-on-year to €561m. This number is higher than the year-end figure, reflecting the seasonal working capital requirements. DAVY VIEW: These results will be overshadowed by the announcement around the Dairy Ingredients Ireland division. However, this is a very strong set of numbers. The increase in guidance should be taken positively, especially given that the group is experiencing significant raw material pressure in its Global Nutritionals division as well as challenges in Dairy Ireland. Revenue and profit growth is very impressive within Global Nutritionals and notwithstanding the fact that raw materials are an issue in the short term, the underlying momentum in this portion of the business is strong and the trend towards healthier living that underpins much of the demand story looks to have no signs of reversing in the medium term. Price rating: Outperform (30/06/09).

Investment ratings definitions Davy ratings are indicators of the expected performance of the stock relative to its sector index (FTSE E300) over the next 12 months. At times, the performance might fall outside the general ranges stated below due to near-term events, market conditions, stock volatility or – in some cases – company-specific issues. Research reports and ratings should not be relied upon as individual investment advice. As always, an investor's decision to buy or sell a security must depend on individual circumstances, including existing holdings, time horizons and risk tolerance. Our ratings are based on the following parameters: Outperform: Outperforms the relevant E300 sector by 10% or more over the next 12 months. Neutral: Performs in-line with the relevant E300 sector (+/-10%) over the next 12 months. Underperform: Underperforms the relevant E300 sector by 10% or more over the next 12 months. Under Review: Rating is actively under review. Suspended: Rating is suspended until further notice. Restricted: The rating has been removed in accordance with Davy policy and/or applicable law and regulations where Davy is engaged in an investment banking transaction and in certain other circumstances.
