Investment Rationale

Organized mattress market still in a nascent stage

Out of the total mattress Industry size of Rs85-90bn, organized players are estimated

to constitute 33-35% of the total market, the rest being unorganized. The transition

from unorganized to organized is expected to continue as domestic and global

manufacturers offer superior quality of products across wide range of price points.

Also, Factors like rising urbanization, increase in disposable income, increase in

health related issues and increasing awareness about sleep products bode well for

the faster growth of mattresses industry. Going ahead also, trend is expected to

continue with organized sector growth of 11-13% over FY16-FY21E period vs.

unorganised segment’s growth of 6-8%, bringing overall industry growth to 8-10%

Exhibit 1: Organized industry is expected to grow@11-13% and reach a size of Rs 140bn by 2021

Efficient Working capital management

SFL gives credit period of 30-60days to its distributors and dealers in respect of its home comfort products and institutional customers for its Technical PU Foam lines. Similarly, it sources its RM from domestic companies like Manali Petro & GNFC as well as international companies like Dow Chemicals & BASF with a 30 day payable

limits. So, the working capital cycle is largely dependent only on inventory management which has improved over the years significantly.

Industry Dynamics

The India mattress market has witnessed sustained growth over the recent years on

account of rising penetration of organized sector in mattresses segment fueled by

rising demand of good quality mattress, rising health consciousness and entry of

new players in organized segment of mattress industry. The industry consists of

rubberized coir, PU Foam and spring mattresses with estimated market size of Rs 85-

90bn growing @8-10% CAGR for past 5 years. Industry is dominated by unorganized

local players, specialising in hand-made cotton/coir -mattresses with a market share

of 65%. Organised sector comprising of 20-25 mid-sized and large players is growing

faster at a CAGR of 10-12% over FY12-FY16 to reach ~28-30bn for FY16.

Product Varieties in Mattresses

The most popular varieties of mattresses in India are that of cotton, rubberized coir

and foam which differ in density, freshness, comfort, strength and prices.

Exhibit 5: Mattresses Industry by categories

Mattress Type Advantages Disadvantages

PU Foam Soft, Very Light Hot, Expensive, Sag

Latex Rubber Not as soft as Foam, Comfortable Expensive

Spring Mattress No Sagging, Long Life Very Expensive

Rubberized Coir Firm, Reasonable Priced Tendency to sag

Cotton Mattress Cheap, Foldable, of any size available Forms Lumps

Source: PL Research

The mattress market is comprised of large companies, like Kurlon Enterprise, Sheela

Foam, Peps Industries, Springwel Mattresses, Coirfoam (India), Duroflex India,

Godrej Interio (GI) and Springfit Marketing Inc. Major foreign companies operating in

the mattress market of India includes Simmons and Beddings, Serta and King Koil.

PU foam accounts for 50% of the organised Industry

Indian organised mattress industry is dominated by PU foam with ~49-51% share

owing to durability and competitive prices where as rubberized coir has a lower

share of 29-31% due to (i) tendency to sag easily, reducing replacement cycle to 4-5

years (ii) better value proposition from PU foam products & (iii) Shift of rubber usage

for other high margin products with increase in prices of rubber over last few years.

While demand for spring mattress has jumped significantly over the last few years,

its usage is restricted to urban areas only, due to price premium over PU foam and

coir.

The growth in mattress market has been

largely led by the domestic factors such as

increased income levels and also due to

infrastructural development in terms of

increased number of residential units and

inflating number of hotels in the country.

The organized mattress market has been

dominated by Kurlon and Sleepwell which

possess a wide spectrum of mattress within

the affordable price range for the Indian

consumers.

PU foam mattresses are preferred in

Northern India due to its tendency to

absorb heat and remain warmer in winters

where as rubberized coir mattresses have

higher penetration in Southern India

caused by abundant availability of both

coir & rubber

Industry challenges

Higher transportation and warehousing cost

Flammable nature of PU foam requires them to be warehoused in temperature

controlled places while mattresses’ inherent nature of being voluminous keeps the

transport and warehousing cost higher at ~6-10% which is higher when compared

with other manufacturing sectors.

Non-standardized bed sizes

Indian mattress industry faces a unique challenge of customizing mattresses to

match with the dimensions of end-use. This further requires frequent changes in the

manufacturing process thus affecting the benefits accruing out of batch processes.

According to an estimate, India has around 18 bed sizes vs. 4 sizes in the developed

market. However with technological advancement and the learning curve of almost

2 decades, customization has become cost effective.

RM volatility poses a threat on profitability

Raw material cost constitutes 50-60% of revenue and performance of the industry is

significantly affected by availability & price volatility of major RM components.

Polyol & TDI (Toluene Di-Isocryanate) are the key crude based raw materials

constituting ~50% and 25% of total raw material cost respectively. Both of them are

either imported or traded at import parity prices and are having high price volatility

which distorts the profitability. TDI prices have gone as high as USD8,000/tonne in

October 2016 from ~USD1,800/tonne in March 2016 and are currently at

~USD4,000/tonne. Such volatility in key RM prices and intense competitive

environment hurts the industry.

Financial Highlights

SFL revenues are growing @ 10.4% CAGR for past three years

SFL’s financial performance has been robust with revenue and earnings CAGR of

10.4% and 49.6%, respectively over FY13-16 period. Prices of key RM consumed

decreased in FY16 aiding margins by 500bps YoY. The drop in RM costs has

continued this year as well with EBIDTA margins at 13.3% for H1FY17, highest in the

history of the company. But with the RM prices moving up sharply in the last two-

three months due to plant outages, we expect a margin contraction in 2HFY17.

RM & Advertising and Promotion are the key costs

SFL has been significantly benefitted due to lower prices of TDI and Polyol improving

the gross margin of business by 800bps in FY16. The savings in RM was used to

increase the allocation towards advertising and incentives to dealers. The employee

cost is largely stable between 9-10% of sales.

Valuations and View

SFL has significantly benefitted out of lower RM prices primarily TDI and Polyol over

the past 18 months, thus improving margins by almost 500bps and earnings up 2.5x

over FY15. We would also like to highlight that SFL has the following turn-on points

like a) Experienced Management, b) Strong balance sheet with net cash on books, c)

Improved Working capital cycle from 44days in FY13 to 26 days in FY16 , and

d)Strong return ratios. However, considering the recent spurt in TDI prices and the

impact of demonetization on the entire B2C businesses, we feel the second half of

FY17 may see a struggle for growth. The IPO valuation of Rs35bn at upper price band

offers the stock at 34x FY16 PER which has been the best earnings since inception.

Though there are no listed comparable for SFL, we would like to draw a comparison

with some of the mid-cap stocks in home-improvement space.
