How does our one year outlook change?

We maintain our positive stance on Snowman driven by its strong positioning

as market leader in the temperature controlled warehousing and emphasis on

consolidating its pallet capacities thereby improving yield per pallet. Captive

utilisation of transportation fleet and exiting non-profitable food services

business will further expand EBITDA margin offsetting the drop in revenue.

We have a TP of Rs. 83 based on 17x FY18 EV/EBITDA

While operating income witnessed a sharp drop of 16.1% Y-o-Y to Rs. 494mn

on account of reduction in fleet size to 293 trucks and exit from food services

business, we believe that focus on consolidation of existing pallet capacity will

result in higher realisation per pallet at ~Rs.4,450/pallet in FY17E from

Rs.4,139/pallet in FY16 supported by improved utilisation at matured

warehouses (realisation of 4,836/pallet in 1QFY17). Seasonal products such

as ice cream witnessed a 20% Y-o-Y drop, offset by fruits & vegetables and

confectionary resulting in flat revenue and EBITDA margin drop of ~120bps

yoy to 38.3% in warehousing division. Emphasis on frozen and chilled

products will drive EBITDA to CAGR of 30% by FY18E. Management targets

to increase mix of higher yield products coupled with higher utilisations

Captive utilisation of transportation fleet to support core operations will

improve its operating margins to ~18% in FY17 vis-à-vis ~16% in 1QFY17.

The captive utilisation increased from 60% to 66% Y-o-Y with expectation of

~80% utilisation by FY18E.

Capacity addition at Cochin (4,500 pallets) and Krishnapatnam (3,500 pallets)

will increase the pallet capacity to 106,500 by FY17. Expect capex of ~Rs. 850

mn over FY17 and FY18.
