Valuations & view
Khadim’s 1QFY19 revenue growth was largely in line; however weakness in distribution gross margins and higher A&P spends resulted in earnings growth being below expectations. Going forward, we expect retail revenues to return to double digit growth trajectory aided by upcoming festive season demand and continued store expansion. Further, reduction in GST rates (for retail sale price of Rs1,000/pair) as well distributor additions will drive distribution segment revenues. This coupled with improved mix, lower discounting and leverage benefit will drive a 28% earnings CAGR over FY18-20E. At 22xFY20E earnings, stock trades at steep discount (~45%) to the two larger listed peers. Going forward, with improving demand environment, execution will be the key monitorable and improvement in the same, we believe, will drive the overall rerating for the stock. Maintain Outperformer
