ATP=Average Ticket Price, SPH=Spend Per Head on Food & beverages Top five movies in 1QFY19 were ‘Avengers: Infinity War’, ‘Raazi’, ‘Race 3’, ‘Baaghi 2’ and ‘Jurassic Park: Fallen Kingdom’. Together, they registered 9.2m footfalls – 41% of total. In 1QFY18, ‘Bahubali: The Conclusion’, a mega blockbuster alone had 7.1m footfall last year. Due to the high base in 1QFY18, footfalls per screen are flat YoY. For the same reason the ATP was flat too. F&B revenue rose mainly because of higher SPH and ad revenue increase was contributed by higher rates. On 13 Jul 2018, a minister in Maharashtra, India raised an issue asking multiplexes to reduce F&B prices and allow outside food on their premises. PVRL clarified that the High Court of India has not passed any order nor has the government passed any legislation on this. A group of multiplex operators have already met the concerned government authority and submitted their suggestions. As per the multiplexes, allowing outside food on the premises is not viable - commercially, legally, and with respect to safety and hygiene. The High Court has granted the government two weeks to present its stance and formulate July 31, 2018 2 PVR the policy. Any adverse decision by the government or the court allowing patrons to bring outside food onto the premises will be detrimental to PVRL as: a) F&B forms 25-27% of total revenue and commands 75% gross profit margin; and b) other states in India will follow suit. Currently, we do not factor any adverse ruling in our forecasts. Multiplex operators believe the verdict will be issued in their favour. According to them, a similar verdict was passed by the court in Madhya Pradesh, India stating that the government has no reason to interfere in the F&B business of multiplexes as it is a private transaction between consumers and enterprises.
