Strong Photofinishing, but weak Retail

  • Summary: CEWE has released preliminary results. Adjusted for changes in its reporting method, EBIT was in line with consensus, while EPS missed by 6% due to a higher tax rate. The Photofinishing and Online segments were in line or better than both expectations and company guidance. However, Retail's problems in Poland weighed on earnings and led to a miss versus our estimates. We adjust our model and reduce our EPS forecast by 8-12% due to Retail losses. We roll over the valuation and our new price target of EUR71 indicates c20% upside potential.
  • Preliminary results: Sales of EUR524m (FX adjusted: EUR527.5m) beat our forecasts but were a slight miss versus guidance of EUR525m-540m and 1% below consensus. Reported EBIT of EUR32.6m includes taxes previously declared below the EBIT line. Adjusted for this, EBIT came in at EUR33.5m, in line with consensus and within the guidance range of EUR30m-36m. Adjusted for EUR0.9m in non-cash option-plan expenses and EUR1.3m Photokina expenses, EBIT came in at EUR35.7m, the same level as last year. Photofinishing and Online developed, respectively, in line with and ahead of expectations, but Retail was a disappointment, posting a -EUR2.9m loss versus a EUR0.1m profit in 2013. This is the main reason that CEWE missed our estimates. A higher tax rate of 32.4% versus consensus of 28% and our 29.5% led to an EPS miss of 6%.
  • Photofinishing: The division had a strong Christmas, with 6.6% sales growth and estimated 10-12% EBIT growth in Q4 2014. Reported EBIT was EUR38.4m for FY 2014 (EUR39.5m in FY 2013). Adjusted for changes in taxes, Photokina and stock options, we expect a Photofinishing EBIT of EUR40m in Q4 and EUR41m for FY 2014. This is, respectively, in line with and slightly above our estimate of EUR40m.
  • Online: Losses fell from -EUR4.3m in 2013 to -EUR2.9m in 2014. Growth slowed to 13% in Q4 2014 (20% in 9M 2014). We understand that the focus is on earnings (set to break even in FY 2015E or 2016E at the latest) and expansion beyond Germany. CEWE is well positioned to consolidate the market organically and via M&A given its strong balance sheet, in our view.
  • Disappointing Retail (13% of group sales; online and offline hardware retail): Poland underperformed due to the failures of the old management. New management has cleaned up the low-margin wholesale business. We believe the focus is on improving the store set-up and network.
  • Estimate changes: We adjust our estimates for Retail losses. We cannot exclude restructuring charges in this unit and model EUR2m-3m losses in FY 2015-16E (including restructuring). We cut our estimates slightly for Online, but still expect it to post positive EBIT by 2017E (EUR5.2m, or 10% of group earnings) and be the key earnings growth driver. We are in line with 2015E consensus, and 10% ahead of consensus for 2016E earnings.

Cash flow summary

  • 25 February 2015 CEWE is a high-quality company with a strong management track record. This is evident in the shift from analogue to digital and in the leading market position gained in the digital photofinishing and photobook market in western Europe.
  • The Photofinishing division is set to benefit from an increasing share of more-profitable photogift products, supporting margin expansion.
  • The Online division is a key growth driver, but is currently lossmaking, given its expansion and marketing costs. It is, however, set to break even in 2015E and contribute 10% to group EBIT by 2017E.
  • Our valuation is an average of DCF and CFRoEV using 2016E.

Key risks to our investment thesis

  • Q4 accounts for most annual earnings, thus presenting execution risk and making CEWE dependent on a single quarter.
  • Additional investments in the Online division to support market share gains in a structurally changing printing market could push the breakeven point beyond 2015E and dilute margins in 2016E.

● A weaker macro environment and consumer spending in eastern Europe and Scandinavia, where CEWE is present with retail operations and pricing pressure on photo hardware. Underperforming Polish business has led to EUR3m losses in 2014E, and restructuring costs are not excluded.

The table below details the preliminary results versus our and consensus expectations.

While we do not have consensus split by divisions, we believe CEWE has beaten consensus forecasts in its two core segments: Photofinishing and Online. This is positive. Retail presents a risk because the unit requires restructuring and must be turned around. However, it also offers an upside risk if the turnaround happens faster than we anticipate. The core segments, meanwhile, are doing significantly better than consensus expects.

We highlight, once again, the:

  • very strong performance in the Photofinishing division, with recurring EBIT growth of 10-12% in Q4 2014 and a 5% increase in FY 2014E; and
  • diminishing losses in the Online division, which performed slightly ahead of our estimates, thereby confirming that management is on track to reach break-even in FY 2015E or 2016E at the latest.

FY 2014 preliminary results versus our and consensus estimates

Source: Company reports, Berenberg estimates, Bloomberg

Following our changes in estimates, we are broadly in line with consensus for 2015E as we incorporate ongoing losses in the Retail division (-EUR2m-3m losses in FY 2015-16E). We are, however, more optimistic than consensus about the Photofinishing and Online segments. For 2016E we are in line with consensus on the top line (possibly because we factor in lower Retail sales, and a higher share of sales coming from Photofinishing and Online) but 4% ahead on EBIT and almost 10% ahead on net income.

Valuation

We value CEWE using an average of DCF (EUR76) and CFRoEV (EUR67), to take into account its long-term potential alongside its short/mid-term prospects.

We roll over the valuation and use CFRoEV 2016E (previously 2015E). We also reduce our risk-free rate to 2.5% (previously 3%) to account for a lower yield environment, with a 2.2- 2.4% risk free rate in Germany over the last decade. Thus our WACC is reduced from 9.0% to 8.5%, given the company's net cash position, which is still rather conservative.

Our new price target of EUR71.0 indicates more than 20% upside potential. The company trades at 13.7x P/E 2016E compared to a 19% EPS CAGR 2014-17E and a 15% ROCE over the last five years, despite its investments in the still-loss-making Online division.
