EBITDA growth at 13% yoy was driven by margin improvement in the retail segment. After a few sluggish quarters, retail growth has rebounded on higher store addition, better SSSg and acquisition of Vaigai Sanitation stores. Growth should improve further as construction activity picks up and liquidity improves. Revenue mix changes towards high-margin retail and an improvement in the processing segment should support (a) margin expansion, (b) 16%/30% EBITDA/PAT CAGR over FY17-FY20E, and (c) a ~400bps RoE expansion to 22%. We roll over to a Sep’19 TP of Rs 1,859 (from a Mar’19 TP of Rs 1,564 earlier). Strong retail growth of 32% yoy: Retail revenues for the quarter stood at Rs 3bn, up 22% yoy driven by (1) a weak base, (2) strong store addition, (3) healthy SSSg led by a recovery in construction activities, and (4) additional revenue (~Rs 90mn) from acquisition of Vaigai Sanitation in Chennai. Retail EBITM improved ~240bps to 10.4%, leading to strong EBITDA growth of 72%. The company added six new stores during the quarter, taking the store count to 124. We expect 20% revenue CAGR over FY17-FY20E led by (a) 15-20 store additions every year supported by 13%/15% SSSg in FY18E/FY19E, (b) addition of home improvement categories, (c) upgrades of existing stores, (d) acquisition of local stores and (e) unorganized to organized shift led by GST. Channel segment revenues flat on weak base: A conscious decision to reduce channel segment sales led to just 1% growth in segment revenues to Rs 1.2bn. Enterprise segment grew 5% yoy due to a pick-up in industrial/construction activities. EBIT for channel & enterprise segment declined 36% yoy with margins contracting ~340bps yoy due to exceptionally high margins in the year-ago quarter. Acquisition of JP Sanitation stores to enhance presence in Bangalore: Shankara acquired three stores of JP Sanitation (JP), an established brand in Bangalore. With more than 30 years of operations, JP has built a significant connect with home owners, architects, builders and home suppliers. Synergies to Shankara should flow in the form of increasing revenues in Home Improvement categories with cross-selling of products to customers.

Earnings call takeaways

Acquisition update

In Q3FY18, Shankara acquired JP Sanitation, which operates three stores in

Bengaluru city and specialized in categories of plumbing, sanitary ware and flooring

tiles. Over 30 years of operations, it has built significant connect with home owners,

architects, builders and leading suppliers. Synergies to Shankara should flow in the

form of increasing revenues in home improvement categories with cross-selling of

products to customers.

Last quarter, Shankara took over retail chain operations of Vaigai Sanitation, and is

currently working on bringing down its cost levels and turning around operations. It

has also started cross-selling products to Vaigai Sanitation customers.

With increased presence, Shankara gets significant traction in dealing with larger

players in the form of discounts and a better product portfolio, differentiating it

from competition. It has also prompted players in other product categories to look at

Shankara for selling its products.

The company expects EBITDA margins of close to 10-15% from such business going

ahead. It is also looking at increasing its revenue share from ~10% of retail revenues

currently to ~30% going ahead.

JP Sanitation is expected to clock ~Rs 550mn-600mn in FY18 revenues with EBITDA

margins above 10%. Acquisition was done at Rs 150mn, which includes inventory of

Rs 80mn.

Vaigai Sanitation sales for Nov-Dec stood at Rs 90mn with EBITDA-level breakeven.

Omni channel presence

In 3QFY18, Shankara launched a new Omni-channel website, www.buildpro.store,

which will cater to demand in plumbing, baths & faucets, construction material,

electrical & appliances, kitchen and walls & flooring segments.

It will aid product discovery process in digital mode and complement display stocks

in physical stores. This in turn would enhance Shankara’s brand equity.

Only certain product categories will be supplied through the Omni channel currently,

but would be scaled up later and supplied on a pin-code basis.

Segment-wise performance

Retail

Revenues grew 32% yoy on lower GST rates, increased penetration levels and

improved sentiments.

Contribution of retail to total revenues stood at 47.9%.

SSSg stood at 37.3% for Q3FY18 and 20.8% for 9MFY18 on a weak Q3FY17 base due to

demonetization.

Avg. rental costs for stores on lease stood at Rs 70.6 per sq. ft/per month. As of

today, the company has 124 stores (excluding 3 stores of JP sanitation), of which 109

stores are on lease basis. In total, Shankara operated in 4.7lakh sq ft of retail stores

with an average store size of 3800 sq. ft.

Of the total stores, 39% of stores are in tier I, 25% in tier II and 36% in tier III cities.

The avg. ticket size per transaction stood at ~Rs 24,400.

The company upgraded 45 stores in 9MQFY18 (vs. 20 stores in 9MFY17) and added 6

stores (from acquisition) to its store count.

Of total retail sales, construction material sales constitute ~64%, inter-exterior ~20%,

new product categories ~11% and agricultural products ~5%.

Enterprise segment

Sales grew 5% yoy and contributed 32% to consolidated revenues.

Company plans to increase its revenue share in C&E business as it has better margins

as compared to channel business.

Channel segment

Sales were up by a marginal 1% yoy. In line with the company’s strategy to reduce

the segment’s revenue share, the channel segment now contributes 20% of consol

revenues.

Processing: 12 facilities worked at ~90% capacity utilization levels in 3QFY18.

Other highlights and guidance

Shankara had a weak October due to the festive season and a strong monsoon in

South India. Market stabilized to a great extent post new GST rates introduced from

mid-November, resulting in strong December sales.

Top-10 customers contributed 10% of revenues.

Management is looking at opening 15-20 stores every year. The company has already

achieved this number for FY18.

Shankara incurred ~Rs 300mn of capex for 9MFY18. It is looking at Rs 300mn-310mn

of capex for FY19, including for new store rollout (~Rs 50-60mn).

Debt levels stood at Rs 3.1bn as of 31 Dec’17 vs. Rs 2.86bn as on 31 Mar’17.

Demand that was held back in a hope of rates cuts has now returned. The GST effect

has been waning and demand has normalized.

Lite vs. Regular Coverage vs. Spot Coverage We aim to keep our rating and estimates updated at least once a quarter for Regular Coverage stocks. Generally, we would have access to the company and we would maintain detailed financial model for Regular coverage companies. We intend to publish updates on Lite coverage stocks only an opportunistic basis and subject to our ability to contact the management. Our rating and estimates for Lite coverage stocks may not be current. Spot coverage is meant for one-off coverage of a specific company and in such cases, earnings forecast and target price are optional. Spot coverage is meant to stimulate discussion rather than provide a research opinion.
