Bloomberg Code

1-Year Price Performance 160

We expect Jarir to record a +8% Y/Y growth in topline for 1Q2018 to SAR 1.84 billion. Prior to the government announcement of granting a monthly cost of living allowance, there were expectations of a retail slowdown in 1Q given accelerated spending in 4Q2017 on the back of imposition of VAT from January 1 st. We now expect the impact on 1Q to be muted. Jarir continues to dominate and increase its share in smartphones and other electronics and this is likely to continue this quarter as well. We expect gross margins to be marginally better in 1Q while net income is likely to accrue at SAR 235 million (EPS SAR 2.61). Two new showrooms have come on line within the Kingdom this quarter and this is also likely to boost topline. 2018E P/E of 18.3x is a premium to TASI’s 14.7x. We tweak our target price to SAR 166.00 but maintain a Neutral rating.

Revenue growth of +8% Y/Y We forecast revenues of SAR 1.84 billion for 1Q2018, +8% higher Y/Y. This is better than what we were expecting at the start of the quarter given the accelerated spending by consumers in 4Q2017 as VAT was due from January 1, 2018. However, the cost of living allowance (appox. SAR 1,000 per month) by the government, which was matched by some private sector companies as well, is likely to have muted the impact. Thus, along with two new store openings in the quarter, we believe +8% growth in revenues is reasonable. Further, latest data shows that inflation has come down in February to 2.9%.

Gross margins to be better

150 140

We estimate a gross profit of SAR 269 million in 1Q, +9% higher Y/Y on the back of a slight expansion in gross margins to 14.6% versus 14.5% last year. With sales now skewed towards lower margin smartphone and electronic items, margins will be seasonal; higher when back to school season kicks in.

Jarir is off to a good start in 2018 with 2 new stores already up and running in the first quarter of the year. Both these stores are within the Kingdom (Hafr Al Batin and Tabuk) and take the total strength of the branch network to 52 (43 in KSA). We are targeting 5 new stores in 2018, similar to 2017 and 2016.

Raising target price to SAR 166 We forecast a net income of SAR 236 million (EPS SAR 2.61), +6% higher than SAR 221 million in 1Q2017. We have tweaked our target price to SAR 166.00 from SAR 163.00 earlier as we adjust estimates. However, we maintain a Neutral rating on the stock as it trades above our fair value. 2018E P/E of 18.3x is at a premium to the market’s 14.7x.
