Middle East operations

According to the brokerage firm, "In the Middle East, total revenue from operations rose to Rs 5.74bn from Rs3.4bn in the previous year. EBITDA margin for the Middle East business expanded to 8.2% (vs 5.2% in 1QFY22). We note that GM expansion in Middle East was limited given higher share of revenue from tourists."

Store expansion to continue

The brokerage firm has said, "We like Kalyan's thrust on store expansion. It added four new showrooms (three in non-south) and one in Middle East. Total network across India and Middle East was 158 (31 in Middle East). It has launched its first franchise store in Aurangabad."

Progress on most business parameters, Buy For target price of Rs 100

Progress on most business parameters, Buy For target price of Rs 100

According to the brokerage firm, "We believe Kalyan is delivering well on its key markers of (1) improving incremental return ratios and (2) expansion outside its core market of south India. We like the (1) commitment on the franchisee business, (2) improving capital and investment discipline and (3) potential outside south India - in our recent update , we note that apart from Titan, Kalyan is the key potential national player. Kalyan reported a good operating performance in 1Q. India B2C 3-year revenue CAGR is 10%. Gross margin of India business expanded 110bps YoY to 15.5% on the back of (1) higher share of non-south business (35% vs 30% in 1QFY22), (2) increased studded sales (24% vs 20% in 1QFY22). We note that these are natural tailwinds for Kalyan's margin profile and the benefit should continue to accrue for next few years. We like the focus on recruiting new customers and on low-value studded to up trade them."

The brokerage said "We believe Jewellery Hallmarking will likely create a level-playing field, driving further formalisation. The compliance is getting better but will still take some time based on what the top players are suggesting. Maintain BUY; TP Rs100."

"Our earnings estimate are largely unchanged. We model revenue and EBITDA CAGRs of 16% and 23% over FY22-FY24E. Maintain BUY with a DCF-based unchanged target price of Rs100. Key risks: delay in showroom expansion and potentially higher competitive intensity in core south India markets," the brokerage added.
