Starbucks Coffee ♦ Starbucks Coffee is the largest coffee outlet has the largest presence in Malaysia with 175 outlets YTD, followed by its closest chain in Malaysia, and has a 38% market competitor, Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf with less than half the number of the former’s share outlets. It is the market leader in the segment with a 38% market share by number of similar outlets. For the past five years, its SSSG has grown by double digits. In FY14, its SSSG of 16% was the highest at the global level. We believe that Starbucks Coffee’s earnings are less susceptible to weak consumer spending patterns due to the strong customer loyalty for its products as well as its premium branding. ♦ Starbucks Coffee’s outlet penetration rate is Under penetration of Starbucks Coffee outlet in Malaysia. Malaysia had a at six outlets/million people in 2Q14 vs 8-19 Starbucks Coffee outlet penetration rate of six outlets per million people in 2Q14, outlets/million people in other developed which is fairly low compared with other developed Asian countries, where the outlet Asian countries penetration rate is 8-19 outlets per million people. Given the expected rise in household income as well as increasing urbanisation, we believe there is room for Starbucks Coffee to further grow in Malaysia. Potential injection of other F&B businesses. BFood also holds the franchise rights and operates KRR in Malaysia, Indonesia and Cambodia through its parent company, Berjaya Corp, which holds the global rights to the brand. The latter also holds the franchise rights in Malaysia for many recognisable F&B brands like Wendy’s, Krispy Kreme and Papa John’s Pizza. In our view, there is potential for BCorp to inject these brands into BFood in the future. BStarbucks’ stellar performance is likely to continue. For the past five financial years, BStarbucks’ earnings grew at strong double digits YoY on the back of the aggressive expansion of its outlets, double-digit SSSG as well as higher margins. Moving forward, we expect revenue CAGR of 19.7% over FY15-17F, driven by the expansion of outlets and incremental increase in sales per outlet. We expect its earnings CAGR of 20.3% over FY15-17F could be accompanied by margin improvements arising from its economies of scale. Initiate coverage with BUY. BFood will likely be on a strong earnings growth ♦ Valuation premium is justified given its strong trajectory stemming from its Starbucks Coffee arm, following the completion of the earnings growth trajectory and Starbucks acquisition of the remaining 50% stake in BStarbucks. Our TP of MYR4.00 is derived Coffee’s strong franchise value by pegging a 24.6x P/E to its fully-diluted FY16 EPS. We believe its valuation premium is justified given its: i) strong 3-year expected earnings CAGR of 47.7%, ii) Starbucks Coffee’s strong franchise value, and iii) Starbucks Coffee being the largest coffee chain in Malaysia.

We initiate coverage on BFood with a BUY recommendation and a TP of MYR4.00 (rounded) which represents a 30.7% upside return. Our TP is derived by pegging the group’s fully-diluted FY16F earnings (assuming the full conversion of outstanding warrants) to a 24.6x P/E multiple which is 10% above the regional peer average (see Figure 5). We corroborate our findings with a DCF valuation (see Figure 6.) Although we expect the earnings growth of its KRR and Jollibean brands to be flat in the near to medium term, we think BFood will likely be on a strong earnings growth trajectory due to Starbucks Coffee, following the completion of the acquisition of the remaining 50% stake in BStarbucks.
