RESULTS REVIEW 1QFY19 27 JUL 2018 Colgate-Palmolive (India) NEUTRAL HDFC securities Institutional Research is also available on Bloomberg HSLB <GO>& Thomson Reuters Seeking aggression Colgate registered 6.6/4% revenue/volume growth (exp. 11/6%). Despite favorable base (-5% in 1QFY18), good traction for Swarna Vedshakti and improving consumption dynamics, volume growth remained tepid. Soft input inflation and cost control initiatives (flat Ad spend) drove EBITDA/PAT by 27/21% (exp. 18/18%). However, we are not encouraged by margin expansion, since we wanted to see an aggressive approach from the market leader in a challenging period. Muted ad spend and gross margin expansion in the scenario of continued market share fall and improving consumption dynamics, reflects weak management strategy. Market share of toothpaste continued to decline (190bps YoY fall to 52.4%) along with toothbrush (40bps YoY fall to 44.6%). Dabur and Patanjali continue to gain share. Toothpaste industry continues to chug along at 5-6% volume growth. Rural is growing at slower than historical rates (150bps faster than urban vs. historical gap of 300- 400bps). We believe with recovery in rural consumption, volume growth can accelerate to 6-7% for the category. Naturals segment (25% industry mix) continues to outperform. Colgate amidst Swarna Vedshakti’s (~2% market share) pan-India launch cut its price by 15%. Management is committed to driving Swarna’s geographic reach with wider SKUs. We are yet to see signs of recovery and believe market share pressure will persist in the short-term. We model 11% revenue CAGR during FY18-21E, which factors in pass through of higher inflation and recovery in rural demand. Owing to stiff competition, we expect Colgate to continue to spend abundantly on marketing (~13%). We value Colgate based on P/E of 35x on Jun-20 EPS to arrive at a TP of Rs 1,185 (Rs 1,219). Highlights of the quarter 27% EBITDA growth: GM expanded by 255bps to 65.9% owing to soft commodity inflation. A&P growth was flat YoY (-8% in 1QFY18). Employee/other expenses increased by 3/3%. EBITDA margin expanded by 436bps to 27% (exp. of 24%). APAT grew by 21%: Depreciation/other income declined/taxes grew by 6/-26/58% YoY resulting in APAT (excluding profit of Rs 341mn from sale of plant) growing by 21% to Rs 1.65bn vs. (exp. of Rs 1.61bn). Near-term outlook: We prefer other mid-cap FMCG stocks like (Emami, Marico and Dabur) which provide stronger earnings visibility.

Seeking aggression Colgate registered 6.6/4% revenue/volume growth (exp. 11/6%). Despite favorable base (-5% in 1QFY18), good traction for Swarna Vedshakti and improving consumption dynamics, volume growth remained tepid. Soft input inflation and cost control initiatives (flat Ad spend) drove EBITDA/PAT by 27/21% (exp. 18/18%). However, we are not encouraged by margin expansion, since we wanted to see an aggressive approach from the market leader in a challenging period. Muted ad spend and gross margin expansion in the scenario of continued market share fall and improving consumption dynamics, reflects weak management strategy.

Market share of toothpaste continued to decline (190bps YoY fall to 52.4%) along with toothbrush (40bps YoY fall to 44.6%). Dabur and Patanjali continue to gain share. Toothpaste industry continues to chug along at 5-6% volume growth. Rural is growing at slower than historical rates (150bps faster than urban vs. historical gap of 300-400bps). We believe with recovery in rural consumption, volume growth can accelerate to 6-7% for the category. Naturals segment (25% industry mix) continues to outperform. Colgate amidst Swarna Vedshakti’s (~2% market share) pan-India launch cut its price by 15%.

Management is committed to driving Swarna’s geographic reach with wider SKUs. We are yet to see signs of recovery and believe market share pressure will persist in the short-term. We model 11% revenue CAGR during FY18-21E, which factors in pass through of higher inflation and recovery in rural demand. Owing to stiff competition, we expect Colgate to continue to spend abundantly on marketing (~13%). We value Colgate based on P/E of 35x on Jun-20 EPS to arrive at a TP of Rs 1,185 (Rs 1,219). Highlights of the quarter 27% EBITDA growth: GM expanded by 255bps to

65.9% owing to soft commodity inflation. A&P growth was flat YoY (-8% in 1QFY18). Employee/other expenses increased by 3/3%. EBITDA margin expanded by 436bps to 27% (exp. of 24%).

APAT grew by 21%: Depreciation/other income declined/taxes grew by 6/-26/58% YoY resulting in APAT (excluding profit of Rs 341mn from sale of plant) growing by 21% to Rs 1.65bn vs. (exp. of Rs 1.61bn).

Net revenue and volume growth of 6.6% and 4% was below our expectation. Competitive pressure from Dabur and Patanjali remained high Recent price cut of 15-16% for Swarna Vedshakti is to boost volume in natural segment Management expects recovery in the oral care market and expect market to grow by single digit (~6%) volume during FY19 Not encouraged by flat advertisement spend particularly when market share is falling and new launches needs extra efforts EBITDA margin expansion was driven by soft commodity inflation, favourable base and cost control initiatives

Colgate’s Toothpaste Market Share Colgate’s Toothbrush Market Share

Source: Company, HDFC sec Inst Research Source: Company, HDFC sec Inst Research

Market share declines for Colgate in toothpaste have come from its premium segment (Colgate Sensitive and Colgate Total). The premium segment revenue contribution now is at ~4% vs. ~8% earlier Colgate continued to face intense competition in the naturals segment (25% mix for industry) which is dominated by Dabur and Patanjali (80% combined share)
