Dino: Is this the tipping point? (stays SELL)

We maintain our SELL rating on Dino, rolling over our price target (PT) to PLN 96/share (from PLN 93). We see the company as a perfect play on the fiscal stimulus in Poland, fuelling an impressive 2016-19E EBITDA CAGR of 36%. The market has rewarded this superior growth profile, bringing the consensus 1YF EV/EBITDA to 21x, not only at the top of its global FMCG peers, but already 8% above Amazon. At this crossroads, however, we see a material risk of derating. We expect EBITDA growth to decelerate to a 2019-21E CAGR of 19%, under the pressure of the unprecedented minimum wage expansion nearing 80% by end-2023E and the likely retail tax introduction in 2021E. We estimate that the neutralisation of the double-digit wage expansion would require either a lfl of 19%, or 150bps gross margin expansion.
