The Indian Footwear Industry

Emerging Indian footwear industry is a fastest growing market driven by fashion awareness

increase in organized retailing, fast urbanization, and increase in disposable income of the

middle-class, increasing working women and youth population. India is the second largest global

producer of footwear after China, accounting for 13% of global Footwear production of 16 bn

pairs. The Indian Footwear Industry is highly fragmented. There are nearly 4,000 units engaged

in manufacturing footwear in India. The industry is dominated by small scale units contributing

nearly 55% of total production.

There is a shift in trend of unorganized market to organized market with the increase in urban

population, changing lifestyle, rising brand consciousness and transformation in the buying

potential of the Indian customer specifically in the youth. It has transformed from being a highly

unorganized market to an emerging organized retail Industry.

Footwear – Global Scenario and India’s share

The global import of Footwear (both leather footwear as well as non-leather footwear) has

Investment rationale

Changing lifestyle and increasing purchasing power:

Current Indian population is approx. 1.28bn, and the size of domestic footwear industry in India

is approx. Rs.340 mn. Indian footwear market has not even covered half of the population yet

and the footwear Industry has grown at a CAGR of around 15% during 2012-2014. we expect

Indian industry to grow at same pase.

Key driver of volume growth are – 1) Increasing work force, and rising disposable income of the

urban middle-class consumers, 3) increase in the no. of working women and purchasing power,

4) upsurge in middle class population in non-metro cities, 5) change in consumption habits like

separate formal and casual wear, moving towards organized retailing and 6) desire for branded

footwear as the Indian consumer has become more conscious and demanding in their choice and

preference 7) increasing per capita consumption in India (currently the per capita consumption

of footwear is 1 as compared to 4-6 in neighbouring Asian Countries and 6-8 in the developed

European markets.)

Exhibit 7: Revenue contribution from different regions

North, 45%

South, 35%

Others, 20%

Source: Company, BOBCAPS

Deep penetration to fuel growth: Company is planning to open about 100 stores each year.

60 new stores would be franchise-owned, while 40 stores would be company-owned. In FY 14,

northern India had contributed around 45% of the sales while around 35% of the total domestic

sales were contributed by Southern India, sales in southern regions have shown good potential.

They are planning to expand especially in tier II, tier III cities and southern region which includes

Kerala, Telangna, Andhra Pradesh, and Kerala and also in Gujarat where the potential for growth

is significant. We expect that the volume would grow at 15% CAGR over FY14-18E.

(Wholly owned subsidiary of Bank of Baroda)

Reduction in royalty payment and reduction in excise duty: Big positive: Liberty has

benefited from reduction in excise duty as 33% of the revenue comes from leather footwear

with MRP above Rs.1,000. (In the current Budget excise duty has been reduced from 12% to

6% for the shoes above Rs.1,000 made out of leather.) Hence, there is a huge saving in

terms of excise duty for the company.

Liberty pays nearly 2% of its revenues as royalty to its group companies for using the Liberty

brand. The company hopes some reduction in royalty payment due to restructuring of two of

its group companies i.e. Liberty Enterprises and Liberty Group Marketing division (restructured

during FY15). We believe that the consolidation will not only help reduce outflow of royalty

fee and improve bottom line but will also smoothen the path for independent growth of

business.

Decreasing raw material prices: The sharp decline in crude oil prices has also added to

the strong leap in Liberty Shoes. A lot of raw materials used to make leather footwear are

derived from crude oil. The price of these raw materials have come down and fall in the raw

material cost has offset the increase in labour cost and led to improvement in margins.

Wide range of product to strengthen brand equity: Liberty has touched the lives of

over 6 cr. customers led by strong brand equity and the wide range of products. Liberty is

famous as a family footwear brand and caters to all age groups with the understanding of

consumer needs and lifestyle. It has over 5000 styles, with new variations every season.

Today, even the youth in smaller towns are gradually turning towards lifestyle and allied

products. We expect that the new designs and wide range of products would help the

company to constantly increase its customer base while meeting the changing lifestyle needs

of its customers.

Global presence and new associations: Liberty is the first Indian brand to have a Liberty

retail outlet in Europe way back in 1986. Liberty manufactures under its own name and also

for some leading global brands across the world. This expands its footprint across 75

countries globally.

Recently Liberty has entered with the US-based multinational Disney for launching a new

brand into under the latter's Avenger animation series. With a top brand and the long-term

association with a popular name like Disney. Liberty is likely would penetrate deeper the

global markets.

EBITDA to grow at 18.8% CAGR with ~90 bps expansion over FY14-18E: EBITDA grew

at 17.27% CAGR in FY10-14 and we expect it to grow at 18.82% CAGR over FY14-18E. This is

mainly led by increasing volume growth, decreasing in raw materials price, restructuring of group

companies and reduction in excise duty. We believe, EBITDA to reach Rs 817 mn in FY18 with

Key Risk

Upswing in raw material prices: A lot of raw materials used by the footwear industry are

derived from crude oil. In the case of a surge in crude oil prices, company’s cost-effectiveness

might get vulnerable.

Globally Competitive Business Environment: Company operates in a globally competitive

business environment. With ever increasing competition from the local players as well as global

giants in the Footwear Industry with deep pockets, maintaining the existing market share and

leadership position in organized retail footwear industry is a major challenge.

Labour Price: Footwear industry is a labour intensive industry. If wages go up, the company's

margins are hit. Minimum wages go up by 10-15% per year. Labour costs are around 10% of the

maximum retail selling price.

Valuation

We believe that Liberty Shoes, supported by numerous growth triggers, is a good investment

option. We expect the revenue/EBITDA to grow at 15%/18.8% CAGR over FY14-FY18E

respectively due to significant volume growth and strengthening of the distribution networks, pan

India.

The company is turning towards a strong growth path and we believe that it would be one of the

forefront company in emerging footwear market. LSL gave impressive performance in FY14 as

compared to past years as the revenue grew by 34% and PAT grew by 146%.

At CMP of Rs 261, the stock is trading at around 23x FY15E PE. We value the Company at P/E of

20x to arrive at our price target of Rs.388 (49% upside).
