Revenues dropped -1% Y/Y and -2% Q/Q to SAR 1.4 billion, in line with our expectations, as Jarir reported 2Q results. Slowdown in consumer discretionary spending has been expected to hurt the Company, which has dragged stock price down substantially, underperforming the TASI by –22% year to date. Gross margins narrowing to 11.7% as compared to 13.6% last year and 15.1% in the preceding quarter hurt profitability top to down. We believe the stock price decline has been overdone and recommend a Buy with a target price of SAR 140.00. Dividend yield in excess of 6% is an added charm.

Revenues decline -1% Y/Y Quarterly revenues slipped -1% Y/Y to SAR 1.4 billion, marginally better than our estimates as the Company experienced a drop in revenues from the KSA market by -2% Y/Y while revenues from GCC countries grew +8% Y/Y despite the fact that local stores increased by 3 while GCC stores went up by 1 for the same period. Sales of computers & supplies as well as office supplies have been hit. Consumer spending, particularly in retail, is expected to be anemic this year tracking economic growth.

Gross margins at lows

1-Year Price Performance

We had anticipated a decline in gross margins but the actual tightening negatively surprised. Gross margins at 11.7% for 2Q are the lowest quarterly margins to date versus 13.6% in 2Q2015. Unfavorable sales mix coupled with price promotions and discounts have been damaging to margins. Gross profit for 2Q fell -15% Y/Y to SAR 163 million. Although operating expenses are up +18% Y/Y on the back of higher marketing expenditure to boost sales, they are notably down -8% Q/Q. Net income is -17% lower Y/Y while net margins have narrowed to 9.2% for the quarter.

Only two new stores have opened in first half of this year, one each towards the end of each quarter. Full year target of 6-7 new stores may prove challenging for the Company particularly in this environment of dropping sales and thinning margins.

Good entry opportunity 6M

1Y

A total DPS of SAR 3.00 has been announced for 1H 2016. The stock offers 2016 dividend yield in excess of 6% (full year DPS estimate of SAR 6.90), which is appealing. P/E of 12.7x 2016E earnings has moderated substantially. Despite pressure on sales and margins currently, we like the business model and expect a robust recovery from 2017 as economic growth improves. Depressed stock prices are a good entry opportunity. We recommend a Buy with a SAR 140.00 target price.
