Using a sum-of-the-parts methodology, we derived the value of ShinsegaeÊs operations (W305,170/sh) by applying a P/E of 15x to our 2011F EPS.

As of now, Shinsegae has no plan to sell its Samsung Life Insurance shares. We recommend a Buy rating on Shinsegae based on the following investment points: 1) Economic indicators and consumption patterns appear favorable to the department store business. Domestic consumption is projected to gradually grow at 3.3% YoY in 3Q11 and 3.5% YoY in 4Q11. The domestic department store segment showed stagnant growth from 2003 to 2007; however, thanks to 1) solid consumption by high-end consumers, 2) the trading-up pattern by mid-to-high end consumers, and 3) greater emphasis on quality than quantity, the division is projected to record a CAGR of 10.6% from 2008 to 2011. Shinsegae achieved same-store sales growth of 10% YoY in 1Q11. This growth rate is projected to remain at around 10% in 2H11.
