FILA Holdings (081660 KS ) a Bump in the Road FILA Holdings (081660 KS ) A bump in the road Textiles/Apparel 4Q19 preliminary earnings review: OP disappoints Company Report FILA Holdings announced its 4Q19 results after market close on February 14 th , posting February 14, 2020 consolidated revenue of W789.5bn and operating profit of W84.5bn. Operating profit was 11.7% below the recently lowered consensus. While the company only released preliminary numbers and did not provide a regional breakdown of earnings, we believe the lackluster results were mainly due to FILA USA (9.6% of consolidated net profit). (Maintain) Buy We estimate FILA USA’s dollar-based revenue plunged 27% YoY in 4Q19, weighed down by: 1) the overall weakness of the low/mid-end US sportswear market; 2) an Target Price (12M, W) 70,000 unfavorable comparison; and 3) retailers’ inventory adjustments and order cancellations. We also believe FILA USA’s 4Q19 OP margin was lower than our original Share Price (02/14/20, W) 43,500 estimate of 4.7%. As retailers’ inventory adjustments come to an end in 1Q20, the negative impact on Expected Return 61% revenue will likely subside. Still, given the sharp revenue growth of the Disruptor and other FILA models that lasted through 3Q19, we forecast FILA USA’ s 2020 revenue to contract around 20% YoY. OP (19F, Wbn) 477 Consensus OP (19F, Wbn) 484 Decreasing US exposure EPS Growth (19F, %) 88.4 In January, we slashed our 2020 revenue and operating profit forecasts for FILA USA by Market EPS Growth (19F, %) -34.9 32.3% and 65.1%, respectively, in light of the steeper-than-expected revenue decline. P/E (19F, x) 12.0 However, becaus e FILA USA accounts for only 9.6% of overall consolidated net profit, Market P/E (19F, x) 15.7 our downward revisions to FILA Holdings’ consolidated revenue and net profit KOSPI 2,243.59 forecasts were limited to just 6.3% and 6.1%, respectively. Market Cap (Wbn) 2,659 Maintain Buy and TP of W70,000 Shares Outstanding (mn) 61 Despite FILA Hol dings’ decreasing US exposure, FILA USA’s disappointing growth is Free Float (%) 79.3 likely to increase the stock’s volatility in the near term, given that US revenue growth Foreign Ownership (%) 41.1 has been a key catalyst for share prices since 2H19. Beta (12M) 0.42 52-Week Low 43,100 Still, we recommend taking advantage of any sha re price correction as a buying 52-Week High 85,800 opportunity, considering: 1) the strong growth prospects of China’s sportswear market; and 2) the company’s rapidly improving balance sheet and shareholder return policy.

  • Solid Foundations Footwear Sales at Specialty Shops Turned Upward Last Year, Leading to Optimism—And Many New Off Erings—In 2019
    OUTLOOK 2019: SHOES Solid Foundations Footwear sales at specialty shops turned upward last year, leading to optimism—and many new off erings—in 2019. By Kent Oswald his past year may not be considered a “great” year for tennis footwear, but it might go down as a “very good” year, according to data from Sports Marketing Surveys. And that may well o er a good foundation for optimism about the 2019 court shoe market. TWhile fi nal fi gures for year-end 2018 weren’t available at press time, through the third quarter, unit sales for specialty shops were up 3 percent (vs. down 6, 5 and 2 percent in years 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively). If trends hold, dollar sales will rise 9 percent, year over year, to an estimated total of $95 million, helped by an average price rise to $100.28 a pair (through the fi rst three quarters), compared to average pric- ing of $95.60 in 2017, $92.17 in 2016 and $90.05 in 2015. Past performance, as they say, is no guarantee of future results, but the trend from red ink to black ink is always good to see. Ideally, these shoe o erings for 2019 will continue to help spark sales. (Prices are suggested retail.) Head / head.com /800-289-7366 Complementing the Sprint Superfabric (men’s, $159.95) introduced in late 2018, the Revolt and Sprint lines will have new iterations, both with Jan. 16 releases. The low-profi le Revolt 3.0 (men’s/women’s, $119.95) o ers increased comfort and stability for side-to-side play, while the lightweight Sprint 2.5 (men’s/women’s, $119.95) should add to the repu- tation, in terms of wear and performance, of a shoe created for quick movements throughout the court.
