Strong box office collections boost prospects… Price Charts (Inox)

FY19 is likely to end as the best year for multiplexes with net box office 12,000 350 collections (excluding regional) witnessing strong 23% YoY growth 300 10,000 250 (boosted by ~40+% growth in Q4). Most importantly, collection internals 200 8,000 reflect a key positive trend that there is less reliance on top movies as well 150 as star studded (three Khans) line-up. We believe this well distributed nature 6,000 100 of box office collections (if continued) is likely to even out the quarterly 50

Sep-17 Mar-18 Sep-18 Mar-19 Sep-16 Mar-17 uniform growth in box office collections rather than usual trend of crest and Mar-16 trough pattern in collections. This trend is encouraging since it would lead to i) higher share for multiplex players as the box office collection skewed Price (R.H.S) Nifty (L.H.S) towards multiplex players for longer tail movies and ii) encourage producers/content creators to produce more such strong storytelling content that could be made with reasonable budget with faster turnaround time. The content slate, going forward, is also encouraging with movies such Key Highlights as , Super 30, Kick 2, Mission Mangal, Bramhastra, etc. This, coupled with stronger screen additions, is expected to lift box office collections in  The box office collection has been robust in FY20E. However, we note that Q1FY20E collections could be tepid given the Q4FY19, aided by sleeper hits, structurally IPL and Cricket World Cup, during the quarter. We are baking in 16% CAGR good for the industry box office collections for PVR and Inox, over FY19-21E.  Inox leading the screen additions vs. PVR. The balance sheet strength likely result for

While Inox added 82 screens organically, PVR’s 138 screen add revised target price of |385/share and included 68 screens added through SPI acquisition and 70 organically. We |1910/share note that PVR had guided for organic addition of 90+ screens for FY19. The miss would have been owing to approvals led delay. Therefore, FY20 could be front loaded with such screen additions. We build in 85 screens additions Research Analyst each for PVR in FY20E and FY21E. For Inox, the key positive is that they are Securities ICICI net debt free (gross debt of ~| 129 crore and treasury shares of ~| 138 Bhupendra Tiwary crore) post the recent raising of | 160 crore from promoters through [email protected] preferential allotment. This is likely to result in aggressive push for inorganic Sameer Pardikar screen addition. We build in 70 screens additions each for Inox in FY20E and sameer.pardikar@icicisecurities FY21E.

Multiplex industry in sweet spot

We continue to maintain that the multiplex industry is staring at strong growth in the medium term as some of the major issues of higher GST for tickets and public outcry on higher F&B prices seems to be behind now. Moreover, content pipeline and recent performance signals strong growth ahead. Both PVR and Inox remain key beneficiaries of a flourishing multiplex business, which is one of the proxies on rising urban discretionary consumption spends. We value PVR at 12.5x FY21E EV/EBITDA and arrive at a target price of | 1910 with a BUY rating. We value 9.4x FY21E EV/EBITDA (25% discount to target EV/EBITDA multiple of PVR) to arrive at a target price of | 385/share. Sector Update | Multiplexes ICICI Direct Research

Other highlights Regulatory risk behind: The GST Council’s recent decision on reduction in GST rate for cinema tickets is also a welcome step for the multiplex industry. GST rate cut is earnings neutral for multiplex players as they have to pass on these rate cut benefits to end consumers. However, the decision has certain intangible benefits in terms of prospects of increase in footfalls. Also, on the issue of allowing outside food inside multiplex, multiplexes had favourable judgments in the past PILs filed in Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra and J&K. As a precautionary measure, multiplex players had cautiously moderated F&B prices on a selective basis to mitigate the risk associated with F&B to some extent.

Recent VPF controversy: Recently, there were media reports wherein Ronnie Screwvala, who heads a production house named RSVP, filed a complaint with the Competition Commission of (CCI) over the virtual print fee (VPF) payments. VPF is typically charged as per property by multiplexes on a per-title basis, from the producers. Mr Screwvala has argued that while no VPF fee is charged for Holly wood titles, multiplexes continue to charge it for titles despite sunset clause. We note that VPF income for PVR for FY18 is at ~| 17.2 crore, while for Inox it was ~| 24.6 crore. Our interaction with the managements of Inox and PVR suggests that there is no sunset clause for Bollywood movies for collecting VPF fees. The matter is likely to be handled legally.
