Q3 results look good & encouraging even with most of non-BIS inventory being liquidated now
Competition incoming bad for domestic brands as last 1-2 years saw no incoming of high quality demanded import shoes. Can be good for metro as they can now import new shoes in their footlocker and other space.
This will not impact campus much,but competition will increase.Campus have already entered in premium segment i.e above 1500 rs.Campus ASP is 625. Their shoes are mainly prerferred by people with limited budget.Lets see have story play out.
Yes I believe Campus must be looked at now! …Everything seems to be falling together …decent valuation…Good growth in sneaker category…margins have scope to expand due to operating leverage…non-BIS compliant inventory will be out the way soon…and tax cuts will further drive consumer discretionary spends.
Disclosure - Invested. No transactions in past 30 days.
I think it is still expensive if you compare with Bata which has similar sales growth but higher ROCE and higher OPM and is available at 43PE whereas Campus is still at 58PE. Hence its better to wait till either price drops or earnings improve to arrive at reasonable valuation
