Election Spending as an Important Theme; OW on
Consumer Staples
Refreshing the important timelines for the approaching election periods

The election campaign season will run from 28 Nov23, until 10 Feb24, three months before both
the presidential and legislative election day on 14 Feb24. According to polling data (figure 3), the
three impending presidential candidates have yet to secure a minimum of 50% of the vote
required to guarantee a one-round election. Consequently, under this current polling situation, the
occurrence of two rounds of presidential elections is the base-case. If no candidates receive 50%
of the vote in the first round, there will be a second round of election campaigning from 2-22 June
2024, prior to the election day on 26 June 2024. Yet, the polling dynamics are still fluid.

Following the presidential election, a simultaneous regional election (Pilkada Serentak) would be
held on 27 Nov24. However, the government has agreed to move the Pilkada Serentak to Sep24
(from Nov24), which is planned to be revised on government rules in lieu of law (Perppu). If the
Pilkada timetable is pushed forward to September 24, it will take place one month before the
President and Vice President's inauguration on 20 Oct24.

Assuming a single round of elections, our economist estimates that the prospective election
campaign fund could amount to Rp140trn (approximately 0.8% of GDP). We believe that, in the Willinoy Sitorus
case of a one-round or two-round scenario, the size differences of the campaign fund would be willinoy.sitorus@trimegah.com
inconsequential, given that the majority of the funds would circulate in the first round and Pilkada
Serentak. A campaign fund would have a lengthy lifespan (approximately ten months) until Heribertus Ariando
Pilkada Serentak concludes on September 24. Additionally, we observe that fiscal expenditures on Heribertus.ariando@trimegah.com
social assistance in 2023–24 are substantially greater than during the three preceding election
cycles, and additional upward adjustments are possible.

M1 supply showing signs of acceleration

We monitored the growth of the M1 supply during election periods between 2004 and 2020. The
trend indicates that M1 has a tendency to increase prior to the presidential election period. We
believe that this period would have a strong social spending and would have a trickle-effect to the
economy. Based on our analysis of channel checks and a compilation of economic, industry, and
company data, we do not encounter many noteworthy growth figures until September 23 (figure
7). Nevertheless, we observe that M1 supply growth (excluding demand deposits) began to
accelerate on September 23 to +6.95% YoY (prev: +5.78% YoY). Coincidentally, this is the same
month when Govt provided a 10kg of rice/month social assistance for 22mn households.

Weak 9M23 results across the consumer staples already bottomed?

The consumer staples under our coverage (UNVR, SIDO, HMSP, GGRM, ROTI, MYOR, CMRY, ICBP,
and ULTJ) reported a -2% YoY decline in aggregate 9M23 revenue, despite a +11% aggregate
increase in net profit due to higher selling price adjustments offsetting the weak sales volume and
low raw material prices. Some companies will book a strong 4Q due to seasonality factors. Yet we
have not seen much correlation in regards to the multiplier effect from election spending. We
believe this would be more apparent in the next several months ahead.

Consumer staples catalyst: Social spending Vs. minimum wage hike?

PP 51 2023 regarding provincial minimum wage hike was released recently on 10 Nov23. The
regulation displayed a minimum wage formula of UM (t+1) = (Inflasi + (PE X α)) X UM (t), which
according to our analysis, displays a less significant minimum wage hike compared to what labour
unions’ +15% wage hike proposes (based on various media sources). However, this is still subject
to changes as the final decision will be done on 20th Nov23 followed by regional minimum wage on
30th November. If the final UMP decision decides a somewhere in the middle (+8% to +10%),
then this would be attractive for consumer staple stocks. With heightened campaign
activities, increased social aid spending, and upward adjustments in minimum wages,
consumer players are poised to beneficiaries.

Good earnings momentum in the consumer + retail space

The average 4Q revenue and net profit seasonality over the period of 4Q14 to 4Q22 were 27%
and 30%, respectively. We anticipate this seasonality to persist with 4Q23f revenue and net profit
seasonality at 27% and 28%, respectively. In comparison to all other sectors covered by
Trimegah, the consumer + retail sector exhibited the most substantial 4Q23f QoQ momentum
growth. We estimate the 2024 consumer + retail net profit growth to book +11% YoY, which is
comparable to the growth of the big 4 banks.

Top consumer picks

Our consumer analyst’s top consumer picks are: MYOR, HMSP, GGRM, ICBP, MIDI. Should you
refer to figure 11, 12, 13 and 14, our top choices are determined by dividing the rankings across
our entire consumer and retail space into three categories: 1) Revenue multiplier effect from rise
in consumer wallet, 2) Room for higher margin, 3) Impact of rising wages. We analyze historical
minimum wage growth trends and their financial implications for the companies we cover in our
consumer coverage from 2008 to 9M23. Our sensitivity analysis (refer to figure 23) suggests that
a mere 4% minimum wage would still premise good growth for MYOR, ICBP, HMSP, GGRM and
MIDI. Hence, any higher than expected wage growth is considered as an upside risk.

Our top picks among the pack - MYOR, HMSP, MIDI, ICBP, GGRM
We believe consumer players are well-positioned to capitalize on the improving purchasing power
and the cost advantages driven by economies of scale, with some companies faring better than
others in terms of (a) sales multiplier effect, (b) room for higher marign, abd (c) operating
leverage effect.

We analyze the influence of improving purchasing power on sales by dividing the sales CAGR of a
company over a specific period by the average adjustments in minimum wage. Our observations
reveal that retailers like MIDI, ERAA, and MAPI tend to excel. Their high sales multipliers are
attributed to the elasticity of demand for their products. In contrast, staples generally have low
multipliers due to their inelastic nature. However, exceptions exist, with MYOR, ULTJ, and ICBP
demonstrating a relatively high multiplier.

*Median values are presented, and a higher multiplier is considered favorable. For instance, a 2x multiplier implies that if the
minimum wage increases by 10% YoY, the company's sales growth is anticipated to be twice that amount, at 20% YoY.

The improvement in purchasing power also opens a window for price adjustments to boost
margins. When compared to their respective 5-year peak gross margins (excluding cigarettes,
considering their margin dynamics influenced by excise hikes, and MIDI, which, due to its
Lawson venture, should allow for higher margins than historical), KLBF, ULTJ, MYOR emerge with
substantial leeway for margin upticks.

We anticipate that companies with a significant operating leverage effect will derive more
benefits in this scenario. Our operating leverage ratio calculation suggests that HMSP, GGRM,
and MYOR are poised to benefit more from this front.

A relatively good earnings momentum on the consumer-related space


We tracked the consumer + retail sector’s 4Q revenue and net profit seasonality from 4Q14 to
4Q22. The average 4Q revenue and net profit seasonality over the period were 27% and 30%,
respectively. We expect 4Q23f strong seasonality to continue in 4Q23f with 4Q revenue and net
profit at 29% and 28%, respectively.

Among all the sectors in our Trimegah coverage, the consumer + retail sector has the highest
QoQ growth momentum among other sectors. We estimate the 2024 consumer + retail net profit
growth to book +11% YoY growth, which is similar with the big 4 banks’ growth.

Sensitivity of minimuim wage hike to our consumer top picks
We conducted a sensitivity analysis to calculate the potential effects of a minimum wage increase
on the net profit of consumer companies. This process included examining the historical
multiplier effect between sales and minimum wage growth, while also accounting for the
expenses tied to salaries and labor. Overall, our top picks seem to benefit from higher minimum
wage adjustments, with the sensitivity as follow.

Undemanding valuation, despite positive results momentum


Further noteworthy is the current attractive P/E valuation multiples of consumer companies.
Historically, staple stocks traded at a median forward P/E of 24-27x, in contrast to the current
ratio at 19x. Similarly, retailers traded at a median ratio of 20-21 forward P/E, while the current
figure stands at 13x. As catalysts align and valuations stay undemanding, consumer becomes an
enticing choice on the menu.
