Margins improved as direct purchase margin increased. Cut revenue forecasts on the back of shifting customer preference. We maintain HOLD recommendation with TP of Rp1,185. In-line earnings result. Ramayana Lestari Sentosa (RALS) had a subdued 2017 net profit of Rp407bn (-0.5% yoy) which was relatively in-line with consensus (99%) and lower than our forecast (92%). On the top-line, revenue registered lower at Rp5.6tn (- 4% yoy) which was driven by declining direct purchase growth at 6% in 2017 (avg. 5- yr at 3%) though COGS also shrank to Rp3.4tn (-6% yoy) and operating costs flattened to Rp1.8tn (+0.6% yoy), expanding all the profitability margins. Gross, operating, and net profit margin gauged higher at 39.3%, 6.3%, and 7.2%, respectively (FY16: 37.6%, 6.1%, and 7.0%). On quarterly-basis, 4Q17 net profit was at Rp39bn (3Q17: - Rp1bn) cumulating 10% of FY17 earnings. Margins slightly improved. The improvement on COGS was attributable to better 2017 direct purchase margin at 29% (2016: 28%) that has trended upward over the last five years (avg. 5-yr at ). On operational level, the closure of its two rentbased stores at Bulukumba (4,300sqm) and Jakarta (3,379sqm) with the total area of 7,679sqm reduced rent expense to Rp182bn (-7% yoy) and number of employees of 10,171 (-7% yoy) that lowered overall selling expenses to Rp379bn (-7% yoy). However, total operating expenses grew flat (+0.6% yoy) to Rp1,8tn as a result of higher implied salaries paid at Rp66mn/year (+18% yoy). Slash revenue forecasts. We trimmed our revenue forecast by -3%/-2% in FY18F/FY19F. We expect better customers purchasing power in the absence of electricity tariff hike though we are cautious on whether the company will be directly benefited as there is spending preference shift toward experiential-based. The newlybuilt Ramayana Prime store serves as good example of company effort to adapt with the changing preference and possible early indication of segmentation shifting from low to middle-income class. RALS engaged other tenants (e.g. Ace Hardware and XXI cinema) as a means to increase RALS stores traffic though its implementation success remains uncertain. We thus accommodate this by lowering same store sales/sqm by - 6% and -5% in FY18F/FY19F. Maintain HOLD recommendation. Despite having geographically diverse presence, RALS derives a third of its revenue from Greater Jakarta (34%) in 2017 on which we believe many residing customers choose apparel specialist retailer over mixed retailing. Euromonitor captured apparel and footwear specialist grew faster (5-yr CAGR at 6.9%) than mixed retailer (5-yr CAGR at 6.3%) by value. But we believe RALS is still able to rely on ex-java market in the lights of better low-income spending. Therefore, We maintain our HOLD call with TP of Rp1,185 reflecting a P/E FY18F of 19.84x.
