Supergroup - Strong Autumn/Winter range bodes well for Q3
1176p Epic code: SGP

(Sharewatch) The shares touched £12 following a superb Q1 showing both retail and wholesale nicely ahead.

Overall Q1 sales are up 26% to £75m year-on-year with retail sales up 17% (+8.5% like-for-like) whilst wholesale is “significantly ahead of expectations,” rising by 50.8% over Q1 2012. As we foreshadowed in our recent write up, the best indication of headlong growth is that the Autumn/Winter 2013 wholesale order book is up 26% - and the ranges are in store 2/3 weeks earlier than last year so a bumper Q3 is in sight.

The shares look set for an assault on £15 in due course. Keep buying.

Moving up nicely. £15 here we come.

CANNACORD BUY


Supergroup

We feel this is overdone and offers a strong buying opportunity ahead of the groups Q2 trading update on 7 Nov.


Firstly the group is materially out performing its broad fashion & apparel peer group on a LFL sales growth and wholesale order book basis. Despite this current run-rate of premium growth, FY 2013/14 is a year of investment and the group should see the benefits from its new distribution centre, enhanced design functions and improved online/omni-channel, next year. We expect the next trading update to be positive and highlight a continuation from the Q1 with wholesale order book growth of +26% and LFL sales +8.5%. We feel this provides confidence for >20% in wholesale growth in H1 2013/14 and sustainable LFL sales growth of mid-single digits. The recent interims from Ted Baker, should also point to market share gains from well invested strong brands.

Impact on the Canaccord Genuity view
We see multiple drivers that should combine to offer premium growth over the next few years. We feel the improving sales mix with womanswear growing as a % of the total, continued improvements in retail disciplines and the enhancements made to the senior and operational management teams will begin to deliver improvements. This should support confidence that using the company’s growing cash pile to buy in franchisees will not only provide the foundations to accelerate an owned store presence in Europe but in turn maximise the opportunity to deliver long term shareholder value. The acquisition of the German partner is a key catalyst to this (we could get good news at the Q2 stage) and International sales could account for more than 50% of sales by 2015. We see continued double digit growth (>20%) from online and that does not provide for additional country specific websites (there are already 16), improvements made to its delivery offer and the forthcoming trial in China.



Buy ahead of the next trading update

Q2 Trading Update

SuperGroup Plc ("SuperGroup" or "the Group") today provides a trading update covering the 13-week period to 27 October 2013 ("the quarter" or "the period") and the 26-week period to 27 October 2013 ("the half year").

Group
Total Group sales for the quarter increased by 18.5% to £116.6m, a strong trading performance that was in line with management expectations. For the half year, total Group sales increased by 21.1% to £191.6m

Retail division
Total Retail sales in the period were £63.5m, an increase of 20.0% on the comparable period3 last year and for the half year were £116.7m, an increase of 18.8%. Like-for-like2 sales for the quarter were up 7.8%, and up 8.1% for the half year.

During the quarter the Group added 33,000 square feet of owned retail space4 taking the total to 573,000 square feet, a year-on-year increase of 17%. In the UK, the Group opened three new stores, and acquired two third-party franchise stores which were incorporated into the owned store estate. In addition two further stores were opened in Europe, one in Belgium and the other a 7,000 square feet store located in the Aeroville out-of-town development north of Paris.

The new warehouse operation in Burton-upon-Trent completed its first stock intake and began despatches at the beginning of October as planned and this project remains on track and on budget.

Wholesale division
Wholesale sales for the period were £53.1m, an increase of 16.7% on the prior year and for the half year were £74.9m, an increase of 24.8%. As noted in the Q1 IMS, reported revenues on a quarter-by-quarter basis are influenced by the timing of dispatches, particularly over the quarter-end. However, the half year revenue growth is in line with the previously published order book guidance.

The portfolio of franchised locations has increased by a further net 19 stores during the quarter, and a net 31 stores in the half year, to 173 stores. 21 franchised stores were opened during the period in: Austria (two), Denmark, France (two), Germany, Italy, India, Indonesia, Macau, Netherlands, Norway, Spain (two), Switzerland (four), Turkey (two) and UAE, whilst two franchised stores in Newcastle were acquired and included in the owned estate.

Germany agency acquisition
On 31 October 2013 a deal to take control of the agency operation in Germany was completed. The Group acquired seven stores and the rights to the German market for a consideration5 of £3.5 million of which £0.7 million will be settled in shares. This acquisition will allow the Group to benefit from improved Wholesale margins, accelerate the roll-out of German stores by investing its own capital, and retain the local operational and management expertise.

Julian Dunkerton, Chief Executive Officer, commented:

"We have delivered another strong trading performance, which has seen good sales growth in both the Retail and Wholesale divisions. At the same time as delivering revenue growth we continue to build the platform to support our strategy and I am pleased to report that the Group remains on track with its infrastructure investments.

"E-commerce sales from Europe and the Rest of the World have now overtaken those from the UK reinforcing our view of the international appeal of the Superdry brand, an important step in delivering our international strategy.

"Our trading performance, the positive customer reaction to new product ranges and the preparation ahead of peak trading, provides me with confidence in our ability to meet market expectations."

Fantastic results.
