Consumer Goods on Path to Recovery; Essentials Hold an Upper Edge Sector Update Consumer Goods On path to recovery; Essentials hold an upper edge Sector Update Most consumer goods companies started Q4FY2020 with good growth, as Q4FY2020 Results Review gradual recovery was seen in the demand environment (especially in rural markets). However, the outbreak of COVID-19 resulted in a complete lockdown Sector: Consumer Goods in India in the last 10-15 days of March, leading to complete stoppage of production and disruption in supply chain. This impacted sales volumes of most Sector View: Positive companies at the fag end of the quarter, resulting in weak Q4FY2020 numbers. Volumes of most companies (barring food companies) under our coverage declined by 3-22% in Q4FY2020 (revenue of Sharekhan universe declined by 7.8% y-o-y). Companies such as Britannia Industries and Tata Consumer Products Our coverage universe (TCPL) registered growth of 2.5% and 5-6% (at organic level), respectively, in Q4FY2020. On the other hand, companies such as Godrej Consumer Products CMP PT Companies Reco. (Rs) (Rs) (GCPL), Emami, Jyothy Labs, and Dabur India posted double-digit decline in revenue, as pre-season inventory loading by dealers/distributors was affected Asian Paints 1,709 Buy 1,987 by the lockdown. On the international front, companies having large presence Britannia in Africa, Middle East and South East Asian countries registered lower sales in 3,623 Buy 4,060 Industries the international business affected by lockdown and macro headwinds. Lower raw-material prices (especially crude-linked inputs) and lower packaging costs Colgate- 1,383 Positive 1,551 aided gross margins of some companies to expand by 100-300 bps. Lower Palmolive (India) operating leverage resulted in OPM of most companies to decline by 40-590 Dabur India 466 Positive 515 bps. PAT for Sharekhan consumer goods universe (excluding Zydus Wellness Emami 230 Hold 240 and TCPL) declined by 5.4% y-o-y in Q4FY2020. Godrej Consumer Outlook 708 Buy 810 Products Recovery expected by H2FY2021: In the backdrop of the pandemic situation, Hindustan consumer goods companies were impacted by supply disruption caused by the 2,162 Buy 2,305 Unilever lockdown. Production was completely on halt till mid-April 2020 and gradually ITC 200 Buy 240 started with lower capacity utilisation. Post the easing of lockdown norms, most companies scaled up their capacity utilisation and are currently operating at Jyothy Labs 125 Buy 140 85-90% of pre-COVID levels. Distribution and supply are also coming back to Marico 352 Buy 405 normalcy with permission for inter-state transport for essential products. Essential categories such personal wash, detergents, home care, and health and hygiene Tata Consumer 405 Positive 443 are gaining strong traction, while categories such as biscuits, breads, noodles, Products and branded atta are witnessing strong double-digit growth. Rural markets are Zydus Wellness 1,406 Buy 1,520 witnessing faster recovery than urban markets. Overall, Q1FY2021 is expected to be subdued for consumer goods companies (barring food companies). We expect business to attain normalcy for consumer goods companies by Q2FY2021 (except for discretionary categories such as paints). Recovery in rural demand, shift to branded products, strong demand for health and hygiene products, and expansion in distribution reach are near to medium-term catalysts of growth for consumer goods companies. Benign input prices, lower packaging cost, and stringent cost- cutting measures would reduce margin pressure in the near term. However, the same are expected to be better off with recovery in volume growth in the coming Price chart quarters. 65000 14000 Valuation 55000 We prefer companies with a strong brand portfolio, having strong presence in rural 45000 9000 markets and stable balance sheet with good liquidity position to take care of near- 35000 term uncertainties. In view of this, we like Hindustan Unilever (HUL) as more than 25000 80% of its product portfolio is essential in nature and derives ~50% of revenue 15000 4000 from the rural market, and Asian Paints as strong recovery is expected in FY2022 15 16 17 18 19 20 - - - - - - due to higher pent-up demand and market share gains, in the large-cap space. Jul Jul Jul Jul Jul Jul Favourable risk-reward and visible recovery in core cigarette business makes BSE Sensex BSE FMCG Index ITC a preferred bet in the FMCG space. In the mid-cap space, we like TCPL as its synergistic benefits post the merger of Tata Chemicals provides stable earnings visibility in the near to medium term. Key risks Any sustained slowdown in the domestic market or significant increase in the key input prices would act as a key risk to earnings estimates of consumer good companies.

  • 6 August 2019 Compass Group PLC – 2019 AGM Voting Outcome Update Statement in Its 2019 AGM Results Announcement, the Company N
    6 August 2019 Compass Group PLC – 2019 AGM voting outcome update statement In its 2019 AGM results announcement, the Company noted that all resolutions were passed, although there was a significant minority vote against resolution 12 which related to the re- election of Ireena Vittal as a non-executive director. Total votes received in favour of this resolution were 77.62%. Following the AGM result, the Company has actively sought to engage with significant shareholders who voted against Ireena’s re-election. The dialogue has been initiated in order to better understand their voting decision, which centres around a perceived ‘over-boarding’ in light of other non-executive directorships and the application of mechanistic guidelines. The Board has considered the concerns some shareholders have about over-boarding however the Company strongly believes that Ireena Vittal is an effective independent non- executive for Compass Group PLC. In addition to her non-executive role at Compass Group PLC Ireena sits on five Indian listed company boards as a non-executive director (Godrej Consumer Products Limited, WIPRO Limited, The Indian Hotels Company Limited, Titan Company Limited and Housing Development Finance Corporation Limited). The time commitments for Indian company boards are significantly less onerous than UK companies with fewer meetings in each case, fewer Committees, and in the majority of cases meeting sets concluded within a single day. The Board is satisfied with her attendance and believes she devotes appropriate time to Compass business, as well as bringing valuable insights and increased diversity to the Board room. Any further updates on communication with shareholders on this matter, and relevant justification for the re-election of all directors of the Company, will be provided in the 2019 Annual Report and Accounts and associated documentation.

    Hindustan Unilever Limited Shift to Biomass Fired Burners CASE STUDY Figure 1: Nashik Biomass Boiler Figure 2: Orai Burner for incorporation of Vegetable Oil Residue Summary Hindustan Unilever Limited (HUL) has more than 20 manufacturing sites, where fossil fuel is being used to generate steam and hot air for process heating. To minimize our dependence on conventional fossil fuels and reduce CO2 emissions, the company started focusing on renewable energy opportunities since 2009.

Since then, the company has commissioned 10 biomass fired Boilers and Hot Air Generators in India. Presently, more than 60,000 T of biogenic fuel is utilized annually for our process heating. Objective of Intervention The objective of the case study is to demonstrate the impact of biomass-based fuel usage on CO2 reduction along deliverance of cost savings. Type of Intervention and Location The intervention is to increase the share of renewable energy in HUL’s overall energy consumption portfolio by maximizing utilization of biomass fired fuels and reducing dependence on fossil fuels.
