For 3QFY2011, Shoppers Stop (SSL) reported disappointing set of results on
account of high losses in HyperCity. On a consolidated basis, the company’s
top-line grew by 65% yoy to `725cr backed by robust growth in same-store sales
(SSS) and volume growth. EBITDA margin declined by 300bp to 4.5%
Consequently, PAT fell 44% to `8cr. We maintain our Neutral view on the stock.
Higher sales, lower rental help increase profit: During the quarter, SSL reported
65% yoy growth in net sales to `725cr. However, OPM declined by 300bp yoy to
4.5% and EBITDA remained flat at `32cr. High interest cost and tax outgo
resulted in PAT declining by 44% yoy during the quarter.
Outlook and valuation: We are bullish on the long-term growth prospects of the
retail sector. Considering the revival in demand for lifestyle category goods, SSL’s
store roll-out plans and the continuing cost rationalisation measures, we remain
positive on the company’s growth prospects. At `347, the stock is trading at 29.9x
FY2012E fully diluted earnings and 3.6x FY2012E P/BV. We maintain our Neutral
view on the stock.
