return profile.
Valuation and view
DMART’s robust execution on core Retail operating parameters in an
environment of consumption slowdown is quite impressive and
demonstrates the superiority of its business model.
Its consistent superlative performance has ensured strong valuation re-
rating in the last three years since its listing and resulted in massive
outperformance vs. market and other Retail peers. Therefore, the relative
moderation in revenue growth coupled with high capex could impact
DMART’s return ratios and could compress valuation multiples in our view,
despite its continued stellar relative earnings outperformance .
Valuations at 54x FY22 P/E and ~35x FY22 EV/EBTTDA are expensive and
provides no margin of safety. Maintain SELL with TP of INR 1700.
Valuation view
DMART’s remarkable consistency in achieving industry-leading growth, margins and
RoCE despite a relatively asset-heavy model is captured in the stock valuation. At
FY22E EV/EBITDA of 35x and P/E of 54x, it commands a healthy 3x premium to FRL.
DMART’s healthy revenue growth, higher EBITDA margin v/s industry players (due to
its ownership model) and better competitive position (seen in product pricing,
growth, margins, RoCE) has helped it command better valuations. However, growth
has considerably slowed to 24% each in 3QFY20/9MFY20 compared to 33% in the
corresponding period. Further, we estimate SSSG in low double-digits for 9MFY20
compared to 18% in FY19.
