Net revenue was up 6.4 YoY at Rs 82.1bn (4 estimates). Domestic biz clocked healthy 8 growth, with a 4 UVG (3 expectation). EBITDA and APAT were up by 12 and 10. After registering 4 decline in UVG in 3QFY17, this performance was inspiring, particularly when peers were struggling. We are encouraged by HUL s broadbased growth, as Home Care, PC and Refreshments verticals registered healthy 7, 8 and 11 growth respectively. We expect healthy 12 revenue CAGR over FY17-20E (higher than 8 in the last 5 years). Our revenue acceleration assumption is based on (1) Premiumisation across HUL s portfolio, (2) Expansion in the branded market post GST, (3) Improving consumer sentiments (monsoon can be a tailwind) and (4) HULs increase in direct reach. HUL s gross margin was down by a marginal 16bps to 51. While employee and ASP expenses were down 12 (-100bps) and 1 (-82bps). Therefore, EBITDA RESULTS REVIEW 4QFY17 18 MAY 2017 Hindustan Unilever BUY margin was up 100bps to 20. Healthy premium segment growth has expanded the EBIT margin for Home care and PC by 216bps and 19bps resp. We expect HUL s EBITDA margin to expand 200bps over FY17-20 led by (1) Higher premium segment growth, (2) Control on ASP, (3) Operational efficiencies after GST, (4) Better pricing power with improving consumer sentiments. We expect Revenue/EBITDA/APAT CAGR of 11.9/15.5/16.9 respectively over FY17-20. HUL s high valuation is natural, considering its consistent market share gain, with margin expansion and a strong RoCE. HUL would be a key beneficiary of both GST and premiumisation. We increase our EPS estimates by 3 and 6 for FY18 and FY19 resp. We also increase our target P/E to 40x (37x earlier) on Jun- 19EPS. Our TP is Rs 1,140 (Rs 954 earlier), and we upgrade HUL to BUY from NEUTRAL. Near-term outlook: Stable raw material prices with healthy premium segment growth can expand margins in the coming quarters. We expect the stock to give healthy returns in the near term.
