Improving Same Store Sales Growth (SSSG) The SSSG has been impacted on account of COVID-19 but DIL has focused on improving the trend which is reflected in the performance of Core Brands Business in Q4FY21. The SSSG of Pizza Hut and KFC shown recovery in later half of FY21 largely driven by delivery and take-away but Costa Coffee is yet to fully recover from the impact of Covid-19 due to relative inconvenience of packaging liquid foods, consumption of these foods is restricted to dine-in and customer’s take-away. Increase in delivery of foods driven by change in consumer preference QSRs are seeing good recovery especially because of their inherent strength in delivery. Delivery now represents a larger portion of sales compared to the pre-COVID- 19 period.

Majority of the deliveries are carried out by delivery aggregators that provide end-to-end delivery solutions.

Page 8 India Equity Institutional Research II SalesInitiating Note Coverage II 14h September, 2021 Industry Overview The Indian food service industry witnessed multi-fold growth in the last decade largely due to changing consumer patterns, increase in eating out trends and growing market proliferation of brands in India. The Indian food services industry was estimated at INR 8,366 billion in FY 2019-20. The market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 15.5% over the next five years and is expected to reach INR 17,220 billion by FY 2024-25. Factors such as Rising per capita income, increasing internet penetration, urbanization, changing consumer preference and food habits, young population, business culture and western lifestyle are expected to play key role in growth of the industry. The rise in the number of transactions, which grew at a CAGR of 2.4% during the last five years, was one of the key reason for growth in the industry. The number of transactions is expected to grow by an even higher rate of 6.9% in the period between 2020 and 2025. Aggregators to play key role in the ecosystem: Food delivery applications, such as Zomato and Swiggy, have played vital role in the recent past and are expected to play an even more prominent role, as a large share of consumers will continue to prefer the convenience of home deliveries. The pandemic has amplified the role of food delivery providers in the ecosystem. DIL is among the single largest QSR companies in India that is listed on the Swiggy platform, and is among the largest QSR companies in India listed on the Zomato platform in CY 2019 and 2020. Historically, the quick-service restaurant (QSR) channel recorded the fastest growth among all foodservice channels, at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2015 to 2020. Their ability to provide affordable meals, with a quick service time, helped them register significant growth during this period. Global chains, such as KFC, McDonald’s, and Burger King, have invested in expanding their presence in the market. The quick-service restaurant channel has been rapidly growing in popularity in India, owing to factors such as rise in literacy, exposure to media, increase in disposable incomes, and easier and greater availability. Affordability has also been a key factor. In 2020, the QSR channel made the largest contribution to the foodservice industry, with a sales share of 34.1%. This was followed by pub, club, and bar, and full-service restaurants, with market shares of 27.1% and 15.5% respectively.

While the number of transactions grew by 3.8%, number of outlets grew by 2%. Home deliveries played a key role in pushing the number of transactions. Over the next five years, the value sales of quick-service restaurants is expected to grow at an even higher pace of 12.4%, indicating a steep rebound in these outlets post the pandemic. The year 2020 saw significant changes in the business operations of QSRs. Contactless dining experiences and takeaways were adopted by restaurants, with the help of technology. For instance, Pizza Hut, when it opened restaurants during the ‘unlock’ phase of the pandemic, enabled consumers to order using QR codes on their tables, through which they could order online. The channel is also focused on modifying their menus according to changing global trends and Indian eating habits. KFC also, in May 2020, introduced contactless takeaways from its restaurants. In response to COVID-19 pandemic, KFC and Pizza Hut were among the earliest brands in India to roll out contactless delivery and consumers have been able to place an order that is prepaid on the KFC application, mSite, and website and walk into a KFC outlet to pick up the order. As the pandemic is still ongoing, contactless dining and deliveries will be priorities into 2021 as well. Similar to 2020, the year is likely to see more fast-food outlets adopting QR code-enabled menus.

Page 10 India Equity Institutional Research II SalesInitiating Note Coverage II 14h September, 2021 Industry Overview Coffee and Tea Shops: The coffee tea shop channel was worth INR 341.2 billion in 2020 registering a negative CAGR of -1.7% between 2015 and 2020. The virus outbreak was one of the main reasons for the decline in the channel’s value during the review period. The channel represents only 4.1% of the Indian foodservice profit sector value. Indian coffee and tea shop market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 15.0% to reach a valuation of INR687.4 billion in 2025. Key players in this segment include Costa Coffee, Chai Point, Barista, Starbucks and Café Coffee Day. Increasing the average transaction price will drive future value growth as key operators compete for quality and innovation rather than price. With average transaction prices of the channel currently being the lowest of any foodservice channel, operators can look to add unique and indulgent food and drinks to the menu to gain premium positioning and increase average transaction prices. Demand for higher quality tea, coffee, and coffee beans has gained popularity in recent years. As consumers’ expectations of on-premises coffee continues to rise, operators are also offering capsules and roasted coffee products for home consumption. India has largely been a tea drinking country. At the turn of the twentieth century, however, coffee has become a more popular drink. It is now a refreshing and trendy beverage, rather than a traditional drink. The high price point associated with coffee compared to tea has driven the channel's sales. Despite its still small size, the channel is expected to have a noticeable impact on foodservice. Coffee chains, both local and foreign, are likely to grow their footprint significantly in coming years. The rising demand from the young population, rapid urbanization, business culture, and western lifestyle can be attributed to the coffee and tea shop's future growth. Further, an increase in the number of dual-income families, increasing global exposure, growing media penetration would all lead to the growth of coffee and tea shops in India. Impact of Pandemic and way forward: The pandemic has devastating effect on food service industry , the footfall fell precipitously but QSR segment was first to recover. Increase take away, drive through and delivery helped the industry to recover faster. The prevalence of home delivery in the Indian QSR industry is expected to continue to grow due to changing lifestyles and changing consumer eating patterns in the post-COVID atmosphere. Digital and delivery penetration was already gaining momentum before the pandemic. Now, a transformation that was projected to take years is happening in just months. Most key brands have seen increased online orders, higher deliveries and take away which seems to be a new normal. The pandemic accelerated the growth of online food ordering through food delivery apps, as consumers turned to online platforms to avoid spreading or being infected by the virus in public places. Increasing internet and mobile penetration in India and the advent of food delivery apps are also key factors leading consumers away from traditional dine-in experiences and towards convenience-driven options. Most of the QSRs have large number of stores in malls where footfalls are low and there are uncertainties around recovery in footfalls. With increased vaccination and gradual opening up of economy, brands are hopeful of increase in footfalls at malls and recovery in dine-ins. QSRs will see a better recovery compared to other channels, owing to their better suitability for take-away. Going forward, the investments in expansion of stores and technology will also drive the growth. Apart from it, recovery of income levels of consumers, rise in work from anywhere culture, menu innovation and demand from urban consumer will help recovery in near future.

The SSSG of Pizza Hut and KFC shown recovery in later half of FY21 largely driven by delivery and take-away but Costa Coffee is yet to fully recover from the impact of Covid-19 due to relative inconvenience of packaging liquid foods, consumption of these foods is restricted to dine-in and customer’s take-away.

Delivery now represents a larger portion of sales compared to the pre-COVID- 19 period. DIL carries out direct delivery and has also entered into tie-ups with delivery aggregators to accept delivery orders placed on their mobile applications. Majority of the deliveries are carried out by delivery aggregators that provide end-to-end delivery solutions. Revenue generated from delivery sales represented 51.15% of DIL’s revenue from operations in its Core Brands Business in FY2020 and increased to 70.20% of its revenue from operations in its Core Brands Business in FY2021 and the trend is expected to continue in near future.

Page 16 India Equity Institutional Research II SalesInitiating Note Coverage II 14h September, 2021 Outlook and Valuation We expect favourable economic scenario for businesses and economy after the pandemic recedes. Factors such as Rising per capita income, increasing internet penetration, urbanization, changing consumer preference and food habits, young population, business culture and western lifestyle are expected to play key role in growth of the industry. Digital and delivery penetration was already gaining momentum before the pandemic. Now, a transformation that was projected to take years is happening in just months driving faster recovery. Launch of 5G to boost online orders across geographies: The launch of 5G technology will boost the internet penetration in urban as well as rural India which will lead to higher online ordering which augurs well for QSR players like Devyani International given their increased focus on delivery which has already reached to 70% in FY21 and it is further expected to increase despite recovery in dine-in. Recovery in footfall at malls to improve SSSG: QSRs have sizeable presence in malls which has severely impacted due to outbreak of Covid-19. The footfall at malls were initially tepid but it is gradually improving across geography which is good sign for players like DIL. The same store sales growth of DIL is expected to improve as the restrictions around dine-in further eases. Store rollout in new areas will improve revenue visibility: DIL intends to increase the store network by implementing its defined new-store roll out process and its cluster approach and penetration strategy with respect to store location, while aiming to achieve an optimal mix across different types of restaurant formats in order to drive footfalls and compete effectively. As DIL expands its store network, the company also intends to expand in new areas and markets where there is strong potential for growth. Focus on digitization to improve traffic: DIL plans to increase its investment in end-to-end digitalization, automation, artificial intelligence and machine learning, to connect online traffic with its offline assets effectively. The company is working with Yum to improve its technology platform and further integrate its systems with Yum’s platform to ensure greater operational efficiency. DIL’s topline in FY21 has been impacted, in-line with the industry, largely due to Covid-19 as QSRs are either closed entirely or operating on a limited basis, offering only takeout, pickup, delivery, drive-through, or some combination of those options. Revenues from operations for FY 21 have come in at INR 11348 Mn, compared to INR 15164 Mn and INR 13106 Mn for FY20 and FY19 respectively. EBITDA margin were also lower at 15.8% in FY21 compared to 16.6% and 19.4% respectively for the corresponding periods. DIL, however, managed to reduce losses last year by taking cost rationalization initiatives. DIL is taking various initiatives to improve company’s performance including rightsizing stores, paying off debt from IPO proceedings, focusing on delivery which is a structural change in the industry, negotiating lease rental costs and continued focus on store expansion.

Page 17 India Equity Institutional Research II SalesInitiating Note Coverage II 14h September, 2021 Outlook and Valuation Peer Comparison DIL is one of the key player in the QSR industry and reasonably valued compared to its peers and industry average. The growth potential in the industry is immense and DIL is adequately placed to take advantage of the prevailing trend in the industry. DIL’s margin profile is better than most of the key players and expected to improve further. If we compare these companies on price to sales (on FY21 sales) Devyani International (price to sales 12.8x) is available at a discount to Jubilant Foodworks (price to sales 14.2x). In last one year the stock price of Jubilant Foodworks has given return of more than 80%, Westlife Development has given return of more than 40% and Burger King India has given more than 160% return from its IPO price. In comparison, DIL has given 30% return since its listing.

Given the prevailing opportunities in QSR industry and DIL’s focus on implementation of technology to increase footfall and improving operational efficiency, rightsizing stores, store expansion in new areas, focus on improving unit metrics and reduction of debt, we expect DIL to be a key beneficiary of the prevailing trend in the industry. We Initiate Coverage on Devyani International Ltd. with BUY rating and target price of INR 151 per share, 30x FY24E EV/EBIDTA and 31% upside from current levels. The share price of DIL is trading at ~18% discount to its IPO listing price which provides good opportunity to buy the stock. Recent initiatives taken by DIL will help in increasing revenue however the economic recovery post Covid-19 is key for the QSR industry. Reports suggest organised restaurant business will take at least a year after the lockdown is lifted to recover from the Covid-19 pandemic as recovery would be gradual. We have considered moderated impact of third wave of Covid-19 on the performance of the company in FY22. However, we will relook at our valuation considering sever impact of third wave of Covid-19 on the economy and performance of the company.
