MOSL: DELTA CORP 2QFY20 RESULTS (Buy)-Online sweetens the pot-op performance intact

DELTA CORP 2QFY20 RESULTS: Online sweetens the pot; op performance intact

(DELTA IN, Mkt Cap USD0.6b, CMP INR171, TP INR254, 49% Upside, Buy)

  • Revenue flat; EBITDA margin expands marginally: Revenue came in flat YoY at INR2,008m (our estimate: INR2,059m) in 2QFY20, while the EBITDA margin expanded 140bp YoY to 40.5% (our estimate: 37.5%), primarily driven by a multifold expansion in the online business profitability (+2,150bp YoY to 31%). PBT declined 3% YoY to INR748m (our estimate: INR715m). Adj. PAT grew 22% YoY to INR585m (our estimate: INR540m). For 1HFY20, sales were flat YoY, while EBITDA/adj. PAT increased 3%/12% YoY.
  • Online drives growth; Casino marred by competition, general slowdown: Casino revenue declined marginally by 1% YoY to INR2,002m, while the segmental EBIT margin contracted 370bp YoY to 32.8%. Increased market capacities by ~20%, general slowdown, extended monsoon and the taxi strike were the key reasons impacting visitation growth. Margin compression can be attributed to higher spend on offerings/deals to drive visitations. On the other hand, online revenue increased 17% YoY, driven by a boost from higher promotional spend in the prior quarter. However, such incremental spend were avoided in 2QFY20, leading to improved profitability. We expect the online margin to sustain at ~20% as DELTA attempts to stay competitive.
  • Key takeaways: (a) Hearing of Daman writ petition is scheduled on 14th Nov’19. (b) Land policy is likely to be taken up in the winter session. (c) Clarity on GST taxation is likely to emerge soon.
