Titan Industries’ (Titan) Q3FY13 sales and PAT were bang in line with our

estimates aided by the festive and marriage season. Key positives include:

(1) strong surge in jewellery revenue aided by 12% YoY volume growth

(dipped 11% and 21% YoY in Q2FY13 and Q1FY13, respectively) driven by

Tanishq, which posted sales growth of 19% YoY with LTL growth of 10%

YoY; (2) recovery in watches volume at 4% YoY against 1% YoY in H1FY13;

and (3) robust retail expansion (added 39 new stores across formats). Key

negatives were: (i) drop in share of studded jewellery; and (ii) muted sales

growth of PED (due to temporary issue of order postponement). We

expect Titan to be one of the key beneficiaries of likely improvement in

consumer sentiments (due to cut in interest rates, policy reforms and

rising stock market) and likely rupee appreciation (will aid watch margin).

Maintain ‘BUY’.

This report also contains Q3FY13 conference call highlights.

Jewellery shimmers on festive cheer

Jewellery grew 26.7% YoY to ~INR25.2bn. Tanishq posted 10% LTL growth (12% YoY

growth in Q2FY13) and GoldPlus LTL growth improved to 12% YoY (dipped 8% YoY in

Q2FY13); net closure of one store. Share of studded jewellery declined to 22% from

26.2% in Q2FY12. Customer growth rose 12% YoY (against 7%, (2%) and 4%, Q2FY13,

Q1FY13 and Q4FY12, respectively); ticket size increased 2% YoY. Watches sales grew at

10.6% YoY and volume grew 4% YoY. While eyewear surged an impressive 21% YoY, PED

faced temporary issues.

Margin: Jewellery shines, but watches disappoint

Jewellery margin stood at 9.8%, which improved 21bps YoY. Watches EBIT margin

dipped 46bps YoY due to excise hike and higher material costs.

Outlook and valuations: Positive; maintain ‘BUY’

trading at P/E of 33.8x and 27.6x on FY13E and FY14E, respectively. We maintain ‘BUY’

recommendation and ‘Sector Outperformer’ rating on the stock.

Q3FY13 concall: Key takeaways

Jewellery sales: Jewellery grew at 26.7% YoY (on base of 25% YoY) to INR25.1bn. Volume

growth was 12% YoY (down 21% and 11% YoY in Q1FY13 and Q2FY13, respectively).

Customer growth stood at 12% YoY with Tanishq posting 11% YoY LTL growth (3% and 12%

YoY growth in Q1FY13 and Q2FY13, respectively), GoldPlus saw LTL growth 12% YoY (8% YoY

decline in Q1FY13 and Q2FY13 each). Share of studded jewellery decreased to 22% YoY

(against 25% and 32% YoY in Q1FY13 and Q2FY13, respectively). Increase in share of gold

jewellery (as expected) led to overall jewellery margin of 9.8% YoY (Q2FY13 was the highest

jewellery margin quarter due to high share of studded jewellery on the back of activations in

diamond). Studded jewellery posted single digit growth. December saw sustained sales

momentum as in the festive period, though some moderation was seen in January. Titan’s

jewellery EBIT grew 29.5% YoY to INR2.5bn with slight margin improvement of 21bps YoY to

9.8%.

Drop in share of studded jewellery: Studded jewellery witnessed single digit growth as

some consumers preferred gold jewellery over diamond (seen for other players also).

However, this may be a temporary phenomenon. Titan has maintained its target of

achieving 40% of studded jewellery share over the longer term.

RBI’s harsh stance on gold: Direct import of gold, which can lead to 50bps improvement in

margin (due to savings of 1% VAT paid), has been delayed as the credit day for direct import

is reduced to 90days. Titan has thus chosen to compromise the margin benefit to maintain

working capital cycle by importing gold from domestic banks which offer 180 days of credit

period (though this leads to 25bps margin reduction). The company has applied to RBI to

consider its case to extend credit days on direct import to 180. RBI’s current harsh stance on

gold loan may lead to domestic banks reducing the credit period as well. In that case, Titan

will evaluate all available options; including direct import of gold which will be more

lucrative then.

Expansion in jewellery: Titan added 49,000 sq ft in Tanishq in Q3FY13, taking the total area

to 0.504mn sq ft. Also, larger Goldplus stores are being planned in FY13 in existing towns.

Mia range has experienced exceedingly good response; MQ range has only been soft

launched and not deployed to exploit its full potential.

Watches: Watches segment revenue grew 10.6% YoY (to INR4.2bn); volume grew 4% YoY

(up 2% YoY in 9MFY13). EBIT rose 6.5% YoY; margins posted marginal decline of 46bps due

to higher COGS on account of INR volatility and not due to Helios format. The moderation in

decline is mainly attributable to impact of price hikes initiated in CY12. Titan expects margin

to have bottomed out and will benefit from rupee appreciation.

Others: Eyewear posted 21% YoY revenue growth. Titan Eye+ reported LTL growth of 14%

YoY. Precision engineering (PED) experienced some slowdown due to temporary issue of

delayed invoicing.

Retail expansion: Expansion remains on track. Titan added 6 World of Titan showrooms, 10

Fastrack, 9 Helios and 9 Tanishq stores. Total area of 49,000 sq ft was added in jewellery in

Q3FY13.

Expansion into newer categories: Titan’s entry into helmet category has been delayed.

Titan indicated that will establish itself in the kid’s accessories space. It clarified that it has

no intention to venture into the edutainment space.

Ad spends: Ad spends have dipped 133bps YoY as Titan has decreased brand level

investment, though investment at consumer level has been kept intact.

Other income: Titan reported 11% dip in other income, which mainly comprises sale of non-

moving jewellery and stones.

Outlook and valuations: Positive; maintain ‘BUY’

Titan’s jewellery volumes revived in Q3FY13 owing to the festive and marriage season.

Watches volume growth has also picked up and price hike in watches has come into full

effect. Expansion remains on track, which will help sustain growth. We expect Titan to be

one of the key beneficiaries of likely improvement in consumer sentiments (due to cut in

interest rates, rising stock markets and policy reforms) and likely rupee appreciation (will

aid watch margins). Hence, we assign a higher target P/E of 32x (30x earlier) and arrive at a

target price of INR320. At CMP, the stock is trading at 33.8x and 27.6x FY13E and FY14E EPS,

respectively, and maintain ‘BUY’ and rate the stock ‘Sector Outperformer’ on relative

return basis.

Company Description

Titan was incorporated in 1984 as a joint venture between the TATA Group and Tamil Nadu

Industrial Development Corporation (TIDCO), a Government of Tamil Nadu undertaking. The

company manufactures and markets quartz watches since 1987 and is now India’s leading

watch manufacturer and retailer. Gradually, jewellery, precision engineering, eyewear,

accessories, and licensed products were added to the watches portfolio to leverage on the

premium positioning that was assiduously achieved and the success of the Titan brand was

extended to Tanishq and other retail businesses. Its watch brands include Titan, Edge,

Fastrack, Nebula, Raga, Steel, Regalia, Bandhan, Zoop, and Sonata. The company has also

acquired a license for marketing global brands Tommy Hilfiger and Hugo Boss in India.

Investment Theme

The Indian retail landscape is evolving with interplay of several demographic and economic

factors. The long-term prospects backed by changing consumer behaviour in favour of larger

discretionary spending, has set the stage for a healthy growth in the retail space over the

next five years. The big opportunity lies in the growing share of organised retail with

growing trend among consumers to allocate a larger share of income to consumption and

gradual improvement in lifestyle.

Titan has assiduously positioned itself in the premium watch and designer jewellery space.

With constant product innovation it has become the largest organised player in both these

segments. Given its well established brand and sound management we expect Titan to

replicate this success in its new eyewear venture as well. We believe Titan has the ability to

create significant value with its large distribution presence, strong brand, designing skills

and proven execution track record.

Key Risks

Deterioration of macro conditions: Poor macro outlook could lead to prolonged slowdown

in the company’s growth as the company’s revenues depend on discretionary spend.

Volatility in gold prices: Gold prices have a significant bearing on gold demand. Any steep

rise in prices results in lower demand, and investment buying that comes in is low margin.

Margin pressure due to deterioration in product mix and investment buying:

Down trading in watches and jewellery divisions on account of fall in discretionary spending

and higher growth in tier II and IV towns could impact margins.

Sustained losses in new initiatives: New initiatives like Eye+ and the precision engineering

division are currently a drain on profitability. With the slowdown in consumption these are

unlikely to turn around in the next couple of years. Prolonged losses in these divisions will

impact overall profitability.

Business seasonal, restricted to marriage season and festivals: The jewellery segment is

seasonal with respect to marriage season and festivals. Additionally, the number of wedding

dates varies in a year. This could impact the company’s revenue.
