Oldtown
We Know What You Ate Last December
CONSUMER
As a follow-up to initiating coverage on Oldtown last week, we now present the
results of a survey conducted in December 2011 at selected Oldtown outlets and
those of its competitors in the Klang Valley. The survey reinforces our view that
Oldtown is a staple brand for the urban mass market. Based on our results, we
continue to like Oldtown’s growth prospects and solid fundamentals. We maintain
our BUY recommendation, valuing the stock at RM1.55 based on 13.0x FY12 EPS.
First-of-its-kind Equities Research Café Survey. To substantiate our positive view on
the company’s F&B business and the F&B industry as a whole, we conducted a survey
to gauge the sales at Oldtown’s outlets as well as consumer sentiment at several café
outlets in the Klang Valley. Based on the data collected and after making a few
assumptions, we estimated the average revenue per day for a particular outlet, and
subsequently, the total revenue for that month.
December the month for eating and drinking. From our survey, it would appear that
KFC is the undisputed leader in food and beverage (F&B), recording total transactions
that exceed its competitors in the same area by more than two times. On the other hand,
Oldtown recorded transactions that are generally in the top 25% quartile of the F&B
outlets in suburban malls as it appeals to the mass market, which it has a niche. As
expected, Papparich appears to be Oldtown’s closest rival as its number of transactions
is close to the latter’s in cases where the two co-exist in the same area. Last but not
least, we think that Malaysians are generally brand conscious even when it comes to
kopitiam outlets, as shown by the gap between the leading kopitiam brands and other
kopitiam franchises, as illustrated in Table 3.
Positive outlook post yesterday’s investor briefing. Following our meeting with the
management yesterday, we remain confident that the group’s earnings momentum will
sustain in the ensuing quarters. Management reaffirms that it will continue to pay out
50% of its net profit as dividends for FY11 and will try to sustain this payout going
forward. The stock offers a dividend yield of 4.1%for FY11 and 4.6% for FY12, based on
its last closing price of RM1.29.
Current rally still has legs. We initiated coverage on Oldtown last week with a BUY
call. Since then, the stock has inched up by some 3.2% and is currently 16.8% below
our Fair Value (FV). We think that there is still upside in the immediate term as
Oldtown‘s 4Q11 earnings will most likely exceed our conservative expectations to
substantiate our positive view on the stock. We value the stock at RM1.55, based on
13.0x FY12 EPS. At yesterday’s closing price of RM1.29, the stock is currently trading at
10.8x FY12 EPS.

Survey areas. Our quest sent us on a food trail covering 7 outlets in 6 areas in the Klang Valley. These were
Cheras Leisure Mall, Jalan Cheras, Bangsar, 1Utama Shopping Mall, Publika (Mont Kiara), Ampang Park
(KL), and Sunway Pyramid Shopping Mall. Please see Figure 1 and Table 1.

How we carried out our survey. The outcome of our survey depended on obtaining two key indicators from
the café outlets, namely the total number of transactions for the day and number of point-of-sales. With the
data gathered coupled with a few assumptions, we were able to estimate the total revenue per day by
multiplying the day’s total number of transactions with number of point-of-sales, the estimated number of
customers per transaction and estimated average spend. From these figures, we derived the estimated
number of customers observed, while we arrived at the average spend per customer at the café outlets by
assuming that every customer purchases one food item and one drink (the cheapest item on the menu).
Ampang Park outlet the busiest. Among the 7 Oldtown outlets surveyed, the outlet in Ampang Park
Shopping Mall recorded the highest number of transactions of 284 while the outlets in UOA Building in
Bangsar and Publika in Mont Kiara had the least (144 each). This may be because these outlets cater mainly
to office workers who may have been on leave or away due for holidays during the duration of the survey. We
note that Oldtown’s estimated revenue per store per day is consistent among the F&B operators such as
Papparich, Hailam Kopitiam and Kenny Rogers, except for KFC, whose sales clearly outperformed the other
F&B operators we surveyed. In terms of revenue, Oldtown’s best performing outlet among the 7 in the survey
was its Oldtown Signature store in 1 Utama, which generated some 255 transactions totaling an estimated
RM11,359, followed by Ampang Park and Sunway Pyramid with 284 and 276 transactions estimated to be
worth RM10,575 and RM10,277 respectively. In line with our view, we also noticed a substantial gap in terms
of sales between Oldtown and Papparich versus other kopitiam operators. We think that Papparich will
remain an arch rival of Oldtown’s in the medium to long term given the fierce competition between the two
brands.
Survey findings at a glance:
1. KFC is by far the leader among its peer, a finding that is hardly surprising although some may argue
that this is not a fair comparison.
2.
The estimated revenue per day would suggest that Oldtown’s strength is in the Suburban Mass
Market as the outlets in Cheras, Bandar Utama and Sunway outperformed those in the more affluent
neighbourhoods of Bangsar and Damansara Heights.
3.
Oldtown seems to be holding its own against its peers as the estimated revenue per day points to
Oldtown consistently among the top quartile of similar cafes.
4.
Malaysians appear to be brand conscious even when it comes to kopitiams as sales at both Oldtown
and Paparich appear to substantially lead sales at other less established kopitiams.

Other thoughts arising from the survey. As shown in Figures 11-18, we feel that café outlets are fast
becoming informal meeting and dining places where the young, old, traditional and trendy, locals and tourists
converge. We think that Malaysians in general like the café experience offered by the café operators, which
offer a wide selection of food and beverages as well as a relaxing ambience for meeting up and dining. We
think that this trend should remain in the medium term and should benefit Oldtown, which offers the café
experience at an affordable price and at convenient locations.
Watch out for competition. We think that Oldtown will need to keep a close watch on its competitors as
some of them are already starting to slash prices by introducing set menus targeted to specific times of the
day (Papparich introduced its breakfast set menu recently offering set meals from as low as RM4.90). We
think that the competitors are jeopardizing margins to secure more sales – lower margins but earnings
compensated by volume. Although its pricing strategy is still competitive at this juncture, Oldtown will need to
ensure that its quality of product and services remain competitive in the market. Nevertheless, we continue to
like the company for its strong brand and superior marketing strategy, judging from the consistent inflow of
customers across all the outlets we surveyed. We think that its advertising and promotional activities (trimedia: print, TV and radio) has paid off, as the total number of transactions in each of the outlets we
surveyed is competitive vis-à-vis its peers, such as Papparich and Hailam Kopitiam.
Positive after yesterday’s investor briefing. Following our meeting with the management yesterday, we
believe that the company is on track to report earnings that are within our expectations, as 4Q is generally the
best quarter for the F&B industry due to the holiday season and our view is further reinforced by our positive
survey findings. To recap, we are forecasting Oldtown to achieve a net profit of RM35.3m for FY11,
representing a net profit growth of 11.5% for FY11.
FMCG business to expand to South Korea and Vietnam. Oldtown will continue to grow its FMCG business
among the Muslim population locally and it intends to expand its export market to South Korea and Vietnam
this year. We think that its Vietnam venture will face strong competition from local brands, especially Trung
Nguyen Coffee which is the dominant brand there. Nevertheless, management intends to enter this market on
a smaller scale to determine its long-term viability. Back in Malaysia, the group will continue to invest in
advertising and promotional activities, such as participating in the ‘Jom Heboh’ programme to grow its market
share among the Muslim population. We like the idea of Oldtown expanding its Muslim population market
share, but we think that it will face strong competition from established brands, such as Nescafe (Nescafe
held a 70% market share in Malaysia in 2009). We are maintaining our earnings forecast for FY12 and FY13,
as we have already factored in the growth in sales from this strategy. All in all, we continue to be bullish on
the growth of Oldtown’s FMCG business, given the strength of its brand and popularity of its products both
locally and regionally.
Maintain conservative forecasts for F&B business. During the briefing, the management guided that its
F&B business in China is well accepted and doing well. It expects to open 15-20 stores in the Guangdong
region this year. Management also highlighted that the key focus this year for its F&B business is to upgrade
its food quality and services. To achieve this, it will be investing some RM500,000 in internal training
programmes and incentive schemes. Nevertheless, we maintain our view that revenue growth from Oldtown’s
F&B business will be highly correlated to the new number of outlets opened moving forward, and hence, we
are forecasting the same store sales growth to be no more than 0.5% for FY11-13. To recap, we are
forecasting the revenue growth for its F&B business at 20.5% for FY12 and 13.3% in FY13.
Maintain BUY rating. FV at RM1.55. We continue to like Oldtown’s exposure to the defensive F&B
subsector, in view of its: (i) attractive valuation, (ii) decent top- and bottom-line growth, and (iii) stabilizing
margins. Management reaffirmed that it will pay out 50% of its FY11 net profit as dividends and will try to
sustain this payout moving forward. We maintain our BUY recommendation on Oldtown, based on 13.0x
FY12 EPS.
