COLGATE PALMOLIVE (INDIA) LTD: The Company was founded on 23 September, 1937 and is based in Mumbai, India. The company is the subsidiary of Colgate Palmolive Company of USA.

Colgate Palmolive (India) Ltd is locally compared with Amar Remedies Ltd, Farmax India Ltd, Gillette India Ltd, Godrej Consumer Products Ltd, Hindustan Unilever, JHS Svendgaard Laboratories Ltd, Jyothy Laboratories, Nirma Ltd, Procter & Gamble Ltd  and Globally with Beiersdorf AG of Germany, Reckitt Benckiser PLC of UK, Kimberly-Clark Corporation of USA, Church & Dwight Co., Inc of USA, Clorox Company of USA, Paos Holdings Berhad of Malaysia, Niitaka Co ltd of Japan.

Investment Rationale:
India’s oral care market is around $100 Cr and is expected to grow at a CAGR of about 14 % during 2011–2015, which is much higher than the global growth rate. This has led to an increase in the number of oral care companies entering the space, thereby stiffening the competition. P&G has made a similar move by launching its first toothpaste in the country under the Oral-B brand, which commands close to 30 % share in the toothbrush market. Although P&G’s Oral-B has a strong brand recall in India, Colgate-Palmolive has also positioned itself well to defend its market share here. In India only 42 % of the people living in Indian villages and small towns use toothpaste, the proportion is expected to increase with rising rural income and greater awareness about oral hygiene through advertisements, dental camps and free dental checkups. Colgate has done well in this regard by building strong distribution strength across rural India. Colgate now has the highest reach among all consumer products companies in the country. More than 30 % of India’s population suffers from gum sensitivity and oral hygiene problems. Thus, India’s urban population is continuously upgrading from regular toothpastes to dental creams due to which this category is growing at 30 %–40 % annually. Colgate has launched its innovative products such as Colgate Total Pro Gum Health and Colgate Sensitive which will help Colgate to compete with P&G’s Oral-B Pro-Health. Colgate launched several products and a new production facility in India. To support its products in the wake of rising competition, the company also increased its advertising spending which increased by 31 % during the first half of 2013. This has resulted in market share gains in toothpastes, which has grown from 52 % in 2012 to 56 % presently. Company’s annual Report 2013 emphasizes the importance of innovations, market development and distribution expansion to drive growth in oral care business. Colgate is driving market development through consumer awareness program like ‘Brush at Night’, ‘Oral Health Month’ and ‘Bright Smiles, Bright Future’. Innovations are creating new segments like Gum Care, Sensitivity & Visible White. Colgate has launched Colgate Total Pro Gum Health and Colgate Visible White toothpaste in FY13. It has also launched Colgate MaxFresh and Colgate 360 (battery operated) in toothbrush category. Strong efforts on distribution are underway; wherein store coverage increased 40% and rural coverage increased by 25% in FY13. Given that P&G’s toothpaste launch was in the pipeline for some time, competitors have been gearing up for this, and this gets evidenced by a spate of promotions and price-offs, it is expected that Colgate’s ad-spends will too increase. Colgates has a very strong leadership in toothpaste category, it has strengthened its leadership position in toothpaste category from 52.9 % in FY12 to 54.6% in FY13, while market share in toothbrush strengthened to 40.5 %. Hindustan Unilever and Dabur India are at risk of market share loss wherein, the toothpastes contributes 6 % - 7 % of Hindustan Unilever’s and 9 % - 10 % of Dabur India’s revenues. Colgate management is committed for continued investments in India and their efforts are underway for toothpaste facility in Sanand, Gujarat and toothbrush facility in Sricity, Andhra Pradesh. The company has already expended capex of Rs. 1oo Cr and capital advance of Rs. 54.80 Cr and expects commercial production in FY14.

Outlook and Valuation:
Colgate has been present in India for more than 76 years. With products across all oral care categories and price points, it is one of the most popular and preferred oral hygiene brands in the country. Compared to P&G, Colgate offers a much larger assortment of oral care products in a wide price range. This allows consumers to trade up and down gradually depending on macroeconomic conditions without impacting Colgate’s sales volume. Colgate-Palmolive was faced with a similar situation in Brazil where it commands over 70 % market share. When P&G entered the country’s oral care market in 2009, a majority of its market share gains came from smaller competitors and overall category growth for Colgate continued due to maintained strong brand equity among consumers. P&G’s market share gains in India will also come from smaller competitors such as HUL and Dabur given that Brazil and India are quite similar in terms of economic growth and where Colgate-Palmolive has a dominating presence. Recently, Colgate transferred the GSSO division to Colgate Global Business Services Pvt Ltd (CGBSPL) which will enable Colgate Palmolive India to focus on its core business. Colgate divested GSSO by way of slump sale to CGBSPL for a consideration of Rs. 59.89 Cr. With this transfer, expenses and income resulting from this entity would no more reflect in Colgate’s financials w.e.f April 2013. On performance side the volume growth in toothpaste category has moderated from 13 % in recent past to 10 % in FY13. Though, no qualitative input is available in the annual report, but with market checks seems to indicate slower growth in value tiers. Media spends has risen from Rs. 260 Cr in FY12 to Rs. 350 Cr in FY13, A&P spend increased from 15.7 % in FY12 to 15.9% in FY13. This probably hints at preparedness of Colgate for upcoming entry of P&G in India. The management exuberated confidence that the Oral Care category would continue to grow at a healthy pace given the size of the opportunity, but also cited that competition may intensify in near future. With the underlying volume growth of 10 % - 11 % is in sync with management commentary. However, launch of P&G in India, should drive promotions in this category. Colgate Palmolive India has increased media spends in FY13; higher promotion spends in FY14E should be underway. There is overhang on earnings in the short-run. The company has a Cash flow generation of Rs. 460 Cr in FY13 as against Rs. 300 Cr in FY12; also the company has a strong dividend payout at 77 % vs average of 72 % in last 3 years. Higher dividend payout exuberates confidence on future cash generation. At the current market price of Rs. 1239.95, the stock is trading at a PE of 29.86 x FY13E and 25.78 x FY14E respectively. The company can post Earning per share (EPS) of Rs. 41.80 for FY13E and Rs. 48.40 for FY14E. It is expected that with the company’s surplus scenario is likely to continue for the next three years & will keep its growth story intact for the coming quarters also. One can ‘BUY’ in COLGATE PALMOLIVE INDIA LTD with a target price of Rs. 1350.00 for shorter term and for Rs. 1430.00 for Medium to Long term investment.

BRITANNIA INDUSTRIES LTD: The Company was founded in 1892 with an initial investment of Rs. 295.00 and is based in Bengaluru, India. It was earlier known as Britannia Biscuit Company and changed its name to Britannia Industries Ltd in 1979. The company is the subsidiary of Associated Biscuits International Limited. The company offered 18,00,000 shares of Rs. 10 each at a premium of Rs. 5 to the general public in the January, 1978. Britannia Industries Limited engages in the production and sale of bakery and dairy products in India and internationally. Its Bakery products include biscuits, bread, cakes, and rusk; and Dairy products comprise milk, butter, cheese, ghee, and dahi (curd), as well as milk-based ready to drink beverages and dairy whiteners.

Ltd, International Bakery Products Ltd, Sunrise Biscuits Co. Pvt. Ltd, Manna Foods Pvt. Ltd, J.B Mangaram Foods Pvt. Ltd. Britannia Ind Ltd is locally compared with Parle Products, Nestle India Ltd, Ruchi Soya Industries Ltd, Heritage Foods Ltd, Kwality Ltd, ITC Ltd, and Globally with United Biscuits of UK, ConAgra Foods Inc of USA, Kraft Food Group Inc of USA, Hershey Company of United States of America, Campbell Soup Company of USA, Dean Foods Co of USA, LaSalle Brands Co of USA, Enlightened Gourmet Inc of USA,  PepsiCo USA, Iwatsuka Confectionery Company Ltd of Japan, Bourbon Corporation of Japan, Kameda Seika Co., Ltd of Japan.

Investment Rationale:
Bakery is a traditional activity and occupies an important place in food processing industry. The bakery manufactures in India can be differentiated into Bread, Biscuits and Cakes. About 1.3 million tonnes of the bakery products industry in India is in organized sector out of 3 million tonnes whereas the rest are from unorganised and small scale local manufactures. Bakery products are an item of mass consumption which are low priced and has rapid growth. With changing eating habits of people, bakery products have gained popularity among masses. The unorganized sector accounts to about half of the total biscuit production estimated at 1.5 million tonnes. It also account for 85 % of total bread production and around 90 % of the bakery products estimated at 0.60 million tonnes, this includes pastries, cakes,buns, rusks and others. Biscuit market growth has although slowed down as indexed sales growth has registered only 35 % of earlier levels, the pace of premiumisation has also slowed down a bit, however Britannia’s premium brands straddle across price points and are affordable, enabling the company to sustain its growth in this environment. Good monsoons and Food Security bill would be seen as a boost to company’s growth rates in coming quarters. The rural India offers huge growth opportunity as Britannia’s market share in rural India is only 70 % of its urban share from the total market share of 33 %. With strong brand equity and pricing power can increase growth significantly, although the efficient and cost effective distribution remains a challenge for this company. Britannia plans a capex of around Rs. 450 Cr aiming at Bigger Units with a capacity of 15000 MT per unit; multiples lines of 3 per unit; fiscal benefits of VAT refund in Bihar and Orissa for 10 years estimated to be around Rs. 18 Cr in FY13. Britannia has reduced conversion costs by 0.90 % and overheads by 1.10 % in 1QFY14. The Cost reduction were in freight, energy (bio mass in new units), raw material sourcing (reverse auction) and distribution (integration of dairy and bakery, low volume SKU rationalisation) has led to these savings. Management is aiming at simplifying the systems and processes with focus on bigger manufacturing plants, bigger innovations, lean organisation structure and better distribution which will enable further cost reduction in coming periods as well. Volatility in input costs remains a challenge; however recent quarters show benefits of cost control measures in a stable input cost scenario. While stable input costs environment have aided this improvement, the company’s cost rationalisation efforts across the value chain have started bearing fruit. In addition to increasing premiumisation, company has worked on saving energy and distribution costs, improving revenue per employee and better manufacturing technology in its bid to improve profitability. Britannia will continue with its focus on improving margins and the management expects to maintain margins going forward as well. Stable input prices (led by a good monsoon) will also support margins. It is expected that the to expand by 2.20 % over FY13-15, led by favourable base and premiumisation benefits. EBITDA margins could see an expansion of 1.60 % over FY13-15 to 7.4 %, this margin expansion is significant given the slowing down biscuits segment (in sync with overall consumption slowdown). In the June 2013 quarter, biscuits category growth stood at one-thirds of that witnessed in June 2012 quarter. Thus, focus on profitability will enable Britannia to minimise the impact of the slowdown.


Outlook and Valuation: 
The branded packaged segment in this sector had a size of Rs. 17,000 Cr in last fiscal and is expected to grow at 13 % - 15 % in next 3-4 years. Within biscuits there are few players like Parle, ITC and Cadbury which commands about 75 % of market share. The bakery industry has achieved 3 positions in generating revenue among the processed food sector. The market size for the industry is expected to be at US$ 760 Cr by 2015, and the shining star of the sector will be Biscuits Industry. The per capita consumption of bakery products in India is very low, about 1 to 2 kgs per annum, which is comparatively much lower than the developed countries where consumption is between 10 and 50 kg per annum. The growth rate of bakery products has been tremendous in both urban and rural areas. Britannia is stepping up its rural presence as well as expanding its food and snacks portfolio to drive long-term growth. Notably, rural markets have remained fairly stable as compared to urban markets during this slowdown and hence, company’s strategy of increasing rural penetration seems to be appropriate. Improved financial health of its Dairy and International businesses will also aid growth. While an unprecedented rise in input costs remains the key risk, monetisation of its land assets at Chennai and Bengaluru will act as key stock price catalysts. Management believes that a 2.00 % decline in overheads led by reduction in energy cost, freight, distribution, proprietary technology and own manufacturing units is sustainable Key brands like 50‐50, Goodday, Mariegold and Milk Bikis which have sustained high double digit growth rates Britannia is following 3 pronged strategy based on Innovation, cost control and revenue management to drive profitable growth for the company. Company is looking forward to restructure its cost base by implementing comprehensive projects from design to delivery. Company also focuses on its revenue management by differentiating brands and differentiating pricing. Gross Margins have expanded by 2.50 %, while EBITDA margins have expanded by 3.30 %. Britannia had a strong run in the recent past at the bourses on the back of significant improvement in its profitability which has supported its financial performance in the current slowing demand scenario. The company’s strong brands, improving sales mix (in favour of premium products) and healthy cash generation are its key positives. Most analysts remain positive on the company and expect 15-18 % from current levels. Britannia is trading at 23.3 times FY14 estimated earnings and at 15-25 % discount to listed peers ITC, Nestle, Marico & GSK Consumer, largely due to low operating margin. However, due to on-going structural changes in company’s revenue and product mix, the operating margin will improve and this discount could narrow down gradually. The global baked goods market has shown rapid recovery following the economic recession, recording strong growth over recent years. Factors fuelling market expansion include convenience, affordability and health benefits of baked goods products. Demand for healthier fortified baked products has also driven sales. At the current market price of Rs. 875.60, the stock P/E ratio is at 32.55 x FY14E and 24.45 x FY15E respectively. Company’s Earnings per share (EPS) of the company for FY14E and FY15E is seen at Rs. 26.90 and Rs. 35.80 respectively. Britannia Ind could be good buy for the target price of Rs. 1010 for Medium to Long term investment.

PVR has witnessed a very good increase in Footfalls and Average Ticket Price. The footfalls in Q1FY14 were higher on account of the good box office performance by movies like Yeh Jawani Hai Deewani, Raanjhnaa and Aashiqui 2. Footfalls increased from 1.15 Cr in Q4FY13 to 1.51 Cr in the current quarter. The addition of 23 new screens in the PVR portfolio helped to the increase the footfalls numbers. The company has also been able to report an impressive hike in ATP, which increased from Rs. 172 and Rs. 153 in Q4FY13 to Rs. 174 and Rs. 160 for PVR and Cinemax properties, respectively. The management indicated the ATPs of screens with similar stature of PVR and Cinemax would converge subsequently as the company would hike Cinemax’s ATP as and where suitable. PVR reported its Q1FY14 numbers, with a top line of Rs. 335.2 crore on the back of higher-than-expected footfalls, which increased to 1.51 Cr.

The recent KPMG report anticipates the market size of Indian Music & Entertainment sector to touch Rs 1,45,700 Cr (US$ 25.51 billion) by 2016. There is increased penetration in Indian markets, which is expected to even intensify further, owing to a revolution brought in by digital technology. Wireless broadband, growing internet usage, cable digitisation and higher DTH adoption would further drive Indian M&E industry. The report also noted that smart phones, tablets, gaming devices have laid the foundation of a new wave in the industry. There are 10 number of screens per 10 lakh people in India as against 120 screens per 10 lakh people in USA. A stream of several successful Hindi and English film releases drove PVR’s strong results. Every ticket of Rs. 100 sold is divided as Rs. 20 as entertainment tax, Rs. 36 to distributors and then Rs. 44 for the multiplexs. Multiplexes enjoys margin of around 30 % on Exhibition, margin of around 65 % on food & berverages and margin of around 80 % on advertisement - translating into revenue of around Rs. 68 for exhibition, Rs. 25 for food & berverages and Rs. 7 for advertisment. On a comparable basis, combined revenues and EBITDA for PVR and Cinemax were up respectively 23 % and 9 %. Revenues and EBITDA for 1QFY14 came 6 % ahead of our estimates, following stronger-than-expected footfalls and average ticket prices (ATP). ATP for Cinemax now stands at Rs. 160, versus Rs. 174 for PVR. Lack of operating leverage suggests a likely increase in repairs, maintenance and general upkeep expenses to improve the quality of service / experience offered to visitors.

In CY13 so far, net box-office collections from Hindi and Hollywood films climbed 27 % yoy. During 1QFY14, collections were up 39%.

At the current market price of Rs. 495.15, the stock P/E ratio is at 22.92 x FY14E and 18.33 x FY15E respectively. Earning per share (EPS) of the company for the earnings for FY14E and FY15E is seen at Rs. 21.60 and Rs. 27.00 respectively. The content pipeline of the company is exciting, with big releases this diwali like Hrithik Roshan starrer Krish-3, Ranveer and Deepika starrer RAMLEELA, Imran and Karina Starrer Gori Tere Pyaar Mein and Sunny deol's action movie Singh Sahab The Great, will be an great oppurtunity for PVR and would be benefited as a major market share holder.
