1 Consumer Staples - Food Beverage & Tobacco Bloomberg Code: VST IN India Research - Stock Broking Leader in Lower Price Range Cigarette Products Soaring Demand for Lower Price Range Cigarettes to Further Boost Growth Momentum:. has witnessed impressive growth in its topline and bottomline during FY17 on the back of soaring demand for lower price ranged cigarettes and arrested growth in total expenses. The topline has grown at 7.4% from Rs.8831 mn in FY16 to Rs.9482 mn in FY17 while bottomline has grown at 9.2% from Rs.1531 mn to Rs.1672 mn during the same period. Thus, the company has registered steeper growth in its bottomline on the back of sharp rise in other income while tax expenses growing at very moderate rate. The growth momentum so set is likely to get further boosted in view of rising preference for low price ranged cigarettes amongst low income group people who have so far been consuming beedis till late. Besides, driver to this trend has been favorable demographics, increase in consumer disposable income, availability of improved product, innovations etc. Above all, likelihood of GST getting implemented from July 1, 217 may prove to be great respite for organized players into the industry like VST who have been sufferers of price competition from unorganized players who have been avoiding paying tax and causing cut-throat competition at market place. With the implementation of GST, unnecessary price competition will go as every player irrespective of their sizes will have to pay tax thus creating level playing environment. All these developments augur well for tobacco industries in general and VST industries in particular as the company has been focused on value creation by significantly investing product design, innovation, quality marketing and distribution and has been successful in creating leadership position in this segment for itself. Valuation and Outlook Given the backdrop of soaring demand for low priced cigarettes and uniformity in tax rate to be ensured with the implementation of GST, we expect VST industry to register revenue growth at CAGR of 9.6% during FY17-19E. Although we remain long term positive on the company on account of its sound financials, clarity on GST rate would be a key trigger to watch out for. Recently, the stock has good run-up; still we believe that valuation of stock has scope to expand further amidst improving sales and net profit. We have come out with BUY recommendation on the stock for next 9-12 months valuing it at P/E 25.x on its FY19E EPS of Rs with a target price of Rs.3492/share which gives potential upside of 16%.

3 Business Outlook: India is world s 2nd largest producer and major exporter of tobacco. It is an important sector which generates enormous socio-economic benefits in terms of agricultural employment, farm income and foreign exchange earnings. As per statistics of Tobacco Institute of India, Chewing tobacco and beedis constitute 9% of the tobacco industry and cigarettes have only 1-11% share. Due to the fact that majority of the Indian tobacco consuming population consumes beedis, gutka, khaini and Zarda, the tobacco market is majorly controlled by the production of snuffs, gutka and others. This is unlike the rest of the world where tobacco is synonymous to cigarettes, representing 9% of total tobacco consumption. Different varieties of tobaccos are grown in India. They are Flue-Cured Virginia (FCV) tobacco and non-fcv tobacco. FCV tobacco is used in Cigarettes and Beedis whereas non-fcv is used in Hookah, Chewing and others. FCV accounts for around 4% of total tobacco produced in India making it 3rd largest producer of FCV tobacco producer in the world. FCV is the main exportable tobacco produced in India and more than 6% of it is exported with the rest is used in domestic cigarettes manufacturing. India is one of the leading exporters of tobacco. The global leaf tobacco trade is valued at US $12 Bn per annum: India s share of the trade is around 7% currently and is poised to increase as India s tobacco production share in the world is more than 12%. Despite accounting for 17% of the world population, tobacco consumption in the form of cigarettes in India is less than 2% of global consumption. However, India accounts for 84% of world s consumption of smokeless tobacco. In terms of annual per capita cigarettes consumption, Russia with 2786 no. of cigarettes per annum is heading the list followed by Japan with 1841 and China 1711 no. of cigarettes per annum. India has the lowest per capita consumption of Cigarettes in the world just 96 compared with the world average of 865 cigarettes per annum. Over the last three decades, the legal cigarettes share of total tobacco consumption has declined sharply to 11% currently while overall tobacco consumption in the country has increased to 38%. This fall in legal cigarettes consumption has to be attributed to sharp rise in excise and other duties making legal cigarettes costlier. People have shifted to illegal cigarettes and that has led to emergence of unbranded products from unorganized sector. With the implementation of GST, there would be tax stability & moderation which will optimize revenue collections from tobacco sector by arresting shift from legal to illegal cigarettes. Past few years of consumption trend suggests to the fact that there has been paradigm shift from beedis to lower price range cigarettes resulting into augmenting cigarettes volume growth. However, the increasing regulations via taxation and bans on advertising, bans on smoking cigarettes in public places, health warning on cigarettes boxes and increasing public campaign against smoking have been discouraging the industry growth. However, tobacco market is expected to witness growth with a range of tobacco products such as cigarettes, cigars, pipes, hookah-cigarettes etc. Exhibit 4: Tobacco Production (Mn Kgs) Exhibit 5: Export Earnings (Rs.

4 Investment Rationale: Growing Preference for Low Price Range Cigarettes: Of late, there have been tendencies wherein people from lower income groups have started opting for lower price ranged cigarettes instead of Beedis. The driver to this trend is favorable demographics, increase in consumer disposable income, availability of improved products, innovations etc. Health consciousness amongst the youngsters has led to increased consumption of cigars for their low level of health hazards. All these developments augur well for tobacco industries in general and VST industries in particular as the company has been focused on value creation by significantly investing in product design, innovation, quality marketing and distribution and it has been successful in creating leadership position in this segment for itself. Leveraging on Portfolio Mix to Further Strengthen Margin: In view of changing requirements of tobacco in the domestic and overseas markets, the company has focused on the development of niche varieties. Brands such as 69mm size and addition of 64 mm size have registered growth based on value proposition. However, increase in excise duty on above 64 mm cigarettes resulted into volume decline in this particular segment. This led to shift in sales mix towards lower length and higher margin 64 mm cigarettes. However, in the FY18 Budget, the government of India announced excise duty hike of 6% across all categories of cigarettes, 9% hike on Pan Masala and 8.3% hike on unmanufactured tobacco. For handmade beedis, excise duty of Rs.28/thousand sticks has been increased from Rs.21/thousand sticks; and for machine made beedis, excise duty has been increased to Rs.78/thousand sticks from Rs.21/thousand sticks. Exhibit 6: Excise Duty on Cigarettes in Rs./1 sticks Type/ Length of Cigarettes (Mn) Plains Upto >65 to Filters Upto >65 to >7 to Others ( >75 mm) Source: The Tobacco Institute of India, Karvy Research The company s strong brand has helped VST to successfully pass on the excise hikes through price increases while maintaining volume growth. Existing brands of the company such as Special Moments, Charms, Charminar and Kingston have delivered stronger performance. Thus, leveraging its portfolio mix has enabled the company to minimize volume decline in spite of challenging operating environment. Implementation of GST to be of Great Respite for Organized Players in the Industry: Tobacco industry has been subjected to discriminatory rise in excise and other state duties like VAT and entry duty causing decline in sales volume. The taxes are focused to capture organized business of cigarettes manufacturers while chewing tobacco, beedis etc, remains out of the tax net due to exemptions granted to some of the products and small scale business. Some studies estimate that almost 9% of chewing tobacco remains untaxed through tax avoidance and as much as 7% of total consumptions remain untaxed. As legitimate players are subjected to higher taxes, non duty paid cigarettes are getting a flip, registering exponential growth. This is hurting legitimate players in the industry. With GST implementation, all companies from the sector will be under GST purview which will not only ensure that all companies are taxed under GST at the same level but also to curb the unorganized players in this industry who have been indulging in tax evasion. In the meantime, Council has announced the cap on cess levied on cigarettes and chewing tobacco, which could be either 29% or Rs.417/thousand stick or a combination of both. However, GST rate is still awaited and clarity on growth outlook of industry and for that matter VST Industries would be there once effective tax rate is announced. 4

EBITDA margin for FY17 came at 26.% whereas PAT margin was at 17.6%. The company is cash rich and has zero debt. It enjoys high returns on equity (36.9%), on asset (2.6%) and capital employed (54.4%). EPS of the company for FY17 stands at Rs.18.3 which is substantially high. The management announced final dividend of Rs.75 per equity share capital for FY17. Thus, sound financials of the company make it attractive investment proposition.

The company has substantial operations all over the country and competes on the basis of brand appeal and loyalty, product quality and taste, packaging, marketing and price. The company generates revenue between 9-93% from sales within India and 7-1% from overseas markets. International markets offer significant opportunity for cigarettes industry to consolidate its position in view of withdrawal/reduction of agricultural subsidy and escalating cost in traditional cigarettes exporting countries. 5
