trillion in 2017. The biggest contributor to the 2017 overall sales was
the
surge of 9.4% in sales from IDR12.4 trillion in 2016 into IDR13.6 trillion in
2017 accomplished by the agribusiness segment
. Meanwhile, the CBP and
flour segments respectively posted the growth of 4.2% and 3.5% in sales.
Performance of Flour Segment: 2018 Performance Bolster
We estimate that in 2018, the agribusiness segment’s sales likely nudges up
by 2.2% lower than the hike in 2017’s sales. The slight increment is
attributable to the likely stable CPO prices during 2018. Another to the
stable CPO prices,
the flour segment likely posting the incline of 7.9% in
the 2018 sales underlined by the upbeat global flour prices is also the
bolster for the 2018 growth.
Stable Earnings Margin
INDF likely succeeds in maintaining a stable gross margin at the average of
55% estimated to be maintainable in 2018. The CBP segment dominating
70% of the instant noodle markets in Indonesia is one of the bolsters for
stable earnings margin; thus, INDF finds no difficulties in control the selling
price.
Another to the CBP segment, the flour segment also sets the cost
plus selling prices resulting in the maintainable earnings margin
.
Target Price of IDR8,175
We use an estimate of forward P/E of 15.7x (the 3
