Merlissa Trisno Single-digit excise hike?


merlissa.trisno@clsa.com Excise revenue growth target at 3-4% in 2021
+62 21 5088 7834
Based on MoF disclosure, the excise revenue target of Rp178.5tn implies a 3-4%
increase in 2021. Assuming a flat to -5% volume growth assumption and no further
shift in excise payment, we forecast a 5-8% excise rate hike for next year. In our
view, excise tax simplification for 2021 could mean a combination of machine-
made (SKM) and white cigs (SPM) rate, rather than merging tier-1 and tier-2 rate
as the latter should be detrimental for the mid/low segment. We therefore forecast
8-13% 21CL EPS growth of 8% for HM Sampoerna (upgrade from U-PF to O-PF)
and 13% for Gudang Garam (from O-PF to BUY). Upgrade sector to Overweight.

Single-digit excise hike? Indonesia cigarettes

2021 excise revenue target


Low-single-digit excise Based on MoF disclosure, the excise revenue target of Rp178.5tn implies 3-4%
revenue growth? increase in 2021. Assuming the tobacco excise revenue might increase at a similar
rate, we expect benign excise rate hike for next year. There is no indication yet on
the cigarette volume growth assumption at this point.

We assume 5-8% excise Assuming a flat to -5% volume growth assumption and no further shift in excise
rate hike for 2021 payment, we forecast a 5-8% excise rate hike for next year. The government focus
on supporting buying power in the mid/low segment should mean a less aggressive
excise hike for next year, in our view.

Single-digit excise hike? Indonesia cigarettes

This year, through MoF regulation no.30/PMK.04/2020, the government allowed


the relaxation of excise payment to 3 months (instead of 2 months). As per the
government disclosure, there are 84 cigarette manufacturers applying for this
program from 9 April to 30 June 2020 totalling around Rp27.9tn (largely from tier-
1 producers at Rp22.3tn).

Excise tax simplification?


From 10 to 5 layers? Under MoF regulation (PMK 77/2020), the government outlines its plan to employ
a higher excise tax and simpler excise tax structure in the next five years. It aims to
cut from ten excise tax layers this year to five by 2021, which could mean a
combination of machine-made (SKM) and white cigs (SPM) segment

This should benefit bigger players, particularly HMSP, as the new scheme could lead
to higher taxes for its main competitor in the white cigs space (ie, Dunhill)

Merging tier-1 and tier-2 In our view, excise tax simplification is less likely to merge tier-1 and tier-2 rate as
not in the short-term the latter should be detrimental for the mid/low segment. Historically, the excise
gap has actually been widening between tier-1 and tier-2 cigs players.

Near-zero price hike post Lebaran


Last price hike was Mar-20 Post Lebaran, HMSP only raised its prices on 6 July for Marlboro Filter Black (MFB)
for GGRM by 2.3%. GGRM did not apply any hike; its most recent price hike was in March
2020. Both companies still need to raise prices a further 15% for their cheaper
variance to comply with government minimum banderole regulation.

We believe minimum retail price compliance could be delayed to next year given
the strategy to focus on market share this year. Note that tier-2 cigs players also
have yet to comply with minimum retail price compliance as they focus on gaining
some market share.

Still opt for medium-tar and As we believe mid/low consumer segment to suffer for longer due to Covid-19, we
full-flavour segments believe consumers might continue to opt for value-for-money cigs products (ie,
medium-tar and full-flavour segments). Note that mild cigs and white cigs products
experienced more severe volume declines YTD.

Medium-tar cigs products like HMSP’s DSS Magnum Mild and PM Bold are
currently priced 15-20% cheaper than its mild product like A Mild. As for GGRM’s
Surya Pro and GG Move, their prices are about 20-30% lower than Surya brand.

Single-digit excise hike? Indonesia cigarettes

Jun-20 industry volume up Nielsen and excise data suggests YTD Jun-20 cigs industry volume of -10 to -13%
by 5% MoM dragged by tier-1 cigs producers. Jun-20 cigs industry volume growth was around
5% MoM, yet still a low-teens decline YoY in YTD Jun-20. Note that listed tier-2
cigs producers like Wismilak (WIIM IJ) still claimed 20%+ volume growth in 2Q20
driven by its Diplomat Mild and Diplomat Evo products.

Upgrade to Overweight
We expect trading down to tier-2 cigarettes to continue but to a lesser extent in
2021. Cigarette players are still buying time to comply with the government
minimum retail price regulation; hence, we do not expect margin expansion despite
lower excise tax hike.

21CL EPS growth of 8% for We upgrade our EPS forecasts by 3-5% in 21CL assuming an 8% excise hike in SKM
HMSP and 13% for GGRM and 5% excise hike in SKT (from 10% and 8% previously). Now, we expect 21CL EPS
growth of 8% for HMSP and 13% for GGRM. We also believe that the government
focus on the mid/low end recovery (please see the chart below), coupled with
benign excise tax hike should serve as short-term catalyst.

We believe the sector deserves some re-rating on the back of this development;
hence, we upgrade our sector view from Underweight to Overweight.

We upgrade GGRM multiple target from 11x to 13x 21CL PE (-one standard
deviation of the five-year mean). As a result, we raise our new target price from
Rp53,750 to Rp65,000/share and upgrade our rating from Outperform to BUY.

We also upgrade HMSP multiple target from 17x to 19x 21CL PE, which is at -two
standard deviations of the five-year mean. Hence, we lift our target price from
Rp1,800 to Rp1,950/share and upgrade our rating from Underperform to
Outperform.

Single-digit excise hike? Indonesia cigarettes

Valuation details - Gudang Garam Tbk GGRM IJ


Our target price for Gudang Garam is based on 13x target PE and we apply this
multiple to 21CL net profit. Our target multiple is around -1stdev of GGRM's five-
year historical average PE as we factor in higher-than-expected excise tax increase.
The company's ability to raise prices in the midst of a trading-down environment
should serve as the catalyst for the stock. This is also coupled with its ability on
gaining market share for full-flavour category. Note that for most of our consumer
coverage, we use PE as the primary valuation method.

Investment risks - Gudang Garam Tbk GGRM IJ


Excise tax is the single-largest cost component for cigarette companies' overall
costs and hence a significant excise tax increase is the main risk. Companies
normally pass on this cost increase gradually. In 2020, risk related with Covid-19
pandemic should put pressure on volume given logistic challenge and soft buying
power in mid/low end segment. On top of that, raw material prices (tobacco leaf
and clove) are also risks but to a lesser extent. Non-core capex spending (ie, airport,
road construction) could be the negative catalyst for the stock should the amount
exceed expectations.

Valuation details - Hanjaya Mandala Sampoerna Tbk HMSP IJ


We use a PE multiple target valuation to derive our equity fair-value estimate. Our
target price is based on 19x 21CL EPS, -2sd of its historical five-year mean. A
substantial derating was related to the company's structural margin pressure on the
back of lower hand-rolled (SKT) and 'Sampoerna A' volumes. A trading-down
environment in the cigarette industry also contributes to its lower margin. Jakarta's
recent decision to raise excise taxes by 23% on average should increase uncertainty
as to whether manufacturers could pass on this cost pressure. This is on top of the
Covid-19 pandemic, which could put pressure on the mid/low segment's buying
power.

Investment risks - Hanjaya Mandala Sampoerna Tbk HMSP IJ


Excise tax is the single-largest cost component in a cigarette company's overall
costs and hence a significant excise tax increase is the main risk. Companies
normally pass on this cost increase gradually. On top of that, raw-material price
increases (tobacco leaf and cloves) are also a risk, but to a lesser extent. There is
also near-term risk from Covid-19, which could put pressure on mid/low segment
buying power.
