A safe haven
Investors appear to recognize the competitive advantages and growth
opportunities of Vinamilk. The company has a good brandname, economy
of scales, an extensive distribution network, and expanding production
capacity to meet growing demand. Given the lack of viable alternatives in
the Vietnamese stock market, we believe it will remain a safe haven for
investors despite its relatively high PER. We initiate with a Buy
recommendation and a target price of VND106,000.
Double digit growth potential
Vietnam still has one of the lowest levels of dairy consumption in the world, and
so Vinamilk can still maintain double-digit growth in revenue and net profit.
Growth in demand is being supported by the growing middle class and education
on dairy nutrition. Vinamilk can catch the opportunity with its nationwide
distribution network and expanding capacity.
Stable profit margin
Vinamilks profit margin will remain stable. VNM can pass most of its higher raw
material costs to its consumers. Economies of scale and effective inventory and
expense management will reduce its unit cost. Hence, Vinamilks profit margins,
ROE and ROA will remain high.
Plenty of cash to pay dividends
Vinamilk will make most of its capacity expansion in FY12, and vertical
expansion in coming years will cost less. The company has no outstanding debt
and strong operating cash flow, so financing future investments and dividends is
not an issue. Vinamilk will pay a dividend of VND 3,000 per share in FY12.

Target price offers some upside
Our target price of VND106,000 per share is based on its historic average PER
and PBR as well as our DCF method. Compared with its region peers, we note
that VNM tends to trade at a lower PER, though a direct comparison is difficult
given Vietnams high inflation rate. The foreign price of VNM is now at our target
price, and VNM represents 12% of the Ho Chi Minh Index.

Investment thesis
Strengths
The dairy industry has grown at a CAGR of 17% for the period from FY06 to FY11 in
revenue and 8.1% in volume from FY03 to FY11. However, dairy consumption is still low
compare to the region and to world standards, implying strong long-term growth potential.
With 30 years of history, diversified products, a trusted brandname, Vinamilk holds a
leading industry position with a 39% market share in FY10. Continued aggressive brand
building, educating customer and pioneer products will assure Vinamilk hangs onto this
position. Overall growth will be supported by low dairy consumption, large population and
increasing income by the middle class.
Our forecast sees potential growth of 6.5% in volume for the next 5 years for the industry.
We estimate that VNM will continue to achieve growth rate of 21% and 16% in revenue
and net profit respectively in FY13. Onward, revenue and profit will both sustain at 22% for
the next 5 years. In addition, its cash position allows VNM to continue paying dividend of
VND 3,000 per share in FY13 and potentially increasing it in later years.
The risks
There is increasing competition from local and foreign players. A local player, TH Milk, had
started to invest US$400mn for its factory and cow farm, expected to invest total of
US$1.2bn in the dairy industry. Increasing investment in cow farm, factory and strong
advertisement from Friesland Campina to expand production and increase its market
share. Number of smaller players (Long Thanh Milk, Moc Chau, Ba Vi milk) entered liquid
and yogurt market segment, which provide more substitute products, create more
competitive market. With lower import-tax for dairy products (3%-5%) encouraging the
flow of brandname dairy products to Vietnam. It could affect Vinamilk revenue and lower
profit margin.
Raw material accounts for more than 60% of COGs, in which high percentage is imported,
and so any change in raw material price could put a huge affect to Vinamilks profit
margin.
VNM cannot immediately transfer all the volatile of raw material to its customer via selling
price adjustment. In FY09, Whole milk powder (WMP) price decreased from US$4/kg to
2.8/kg, which is 41% decline, but the gross margin increased from 32% to 37%. However,
VNM gradually increase its selling price and cleverly manage its inventory to partially
hedging this risk. For FY09/11, WMP increased 53.6%, from US$ 2.8/kg to 4.3/kg, still
gross margin reduced from 37% to 31% due to these matters.

Industry Overview
No history of dairy consumption
Dairy consumption per capital has increased strongly from 9kg in FY03 to 15.7kg in FY11.
The CAGR for this period is 8.1%, but compared with average consumption in Asia Pacific
and the world, Vietnam falls into lowest range. Vietnam is only 16% of average Pacific
Asia milk consumption and 7% of daily-recommended nutrition.

Reliance on imported dairy products
Local dairy production satisfies only 21% of current demand. Vietnam has to import 79%
of its dairy consumption. The government encourages expansion of cow farms and dairy
production capacity. Vietnam targets to have 400,000 dairy cows and a self-sufficiency
rate of 39% in FY20. Even if Vietnam can achieve this ambitious plan, the dairy industry
still has to rely on imported dairy. Because of the gap between demand and supply, the
market can absorb continuously increasing selling prices and still grow at double-digit
rates.

Vietnams two children policy, which led to more spending on kids, also affects the
consumption of dairy product. All of these factors will keep the industry on its strong
growth path.
Market share Outlook
Vinamilk dominates the yogurt and condensed milk market, with a market share in FY11 of
71% and 88% respectively. We do not expect this will change in the medium future.
Condensed milk has a low margin (est. gross margin of 13%), low growth rate (volume
growth rate from 2-3%) and requires significant capital to manufacture. Friesland seems to
have given up on this product line and small players find it not attractive enough to enter.
Vinamilk with its 88% market has been the leader for this market.
Yogurt involves heavy investment in coolers and chilled transportation vehicles, which will
create a barrier for new entry. With 178,000 sales points and yogurt factories in the north,
south and central of Vietnam, Vinamilk has an advantage for this product, and guarantees
its dominant market share.
The most profitable product line, powdered milk, is lead by Abbot Vietnam with the market
share of 23.8% in FY10, followed by Vinamilk with 18.5%. Foreign companies still
dominate the market, accounting for a 61.4% market share. Vietnamese perception on
imported/foreigner brand is the key reason for the popularity of foreign brands. Vinamilk
targets to increase market share by significantly lower price (lower by 10-30% compare to
international brands) and gradually education of customers view by advertisement,
conventions and events. Vinamilk is expecting to gain its target of 35% market share, but
its appears it will takes much longer or a different strategy to change customers view.

Vinamilk achieved strong revenue growth rate for the past period, CAGR for FY05-FY11 is
25%. Total revenues for FY11 reached US$1 bn. Despite the slow-down, melamine crisis,
and economic downturn, Vinamilk still achieved impressive business results.
Gross and net margin have remained at double-digits since listing in FY06. The gross
margin had been improving from an average of 24.5% for FY05-FY07 to 32.9% for the
period FY08-FY11. Good management and effective inventory policy have kept VNMs
price very competitive.
Over 200 products to satisfy difference classes of income
Vinamilk possess extensive products under 5 brand names: Vinamilk (liquid milk, yogurt,
ice cream), Vfresh (fruit juice and soy milk), Dielac (powdered milk), Ridielac (nutrition
powdered) and condensed milk and aiming for higher margin value-added products.
Due to health concern, we notice Vinamilk is shifting to more value added products. For
yogurt, Vinamilk came up with Collagen added product, Liquid milk with ADM and
powdered milk with product with adding more nutrition ingredient. VNM has the products
for all income levels with broad packaging products size and flavours.

Production capacity
Capacity increased steadily with a CAGR of 19.5% for FY07-FY12, total capacity of 1.1mn
tons in FY12 and expect to increase to 1.6mn tons by FY13. In FY11, capacity grew by
38.5% with the operation of its Tien Son factory (with condensed milk, yogurt and liquid
milk). The capacity increased to 1.1mn tons when the Danang factory start to operate in
FY12, adding to the supply of liquid milk and yogurt into Vietnam central market. With
Danang factory, Vinamilk is the first one to have a factory in this part. With a factory in this
area, Vinamilk will make distribution more efficient and strengthen Vinamilk position in
raising cities in central region.
Historically, Vinamilk utilisation rate remained at an average of 70%. With significant
growth of capacity recently, we expect the utilisation rate will be below 60% level and
slowly increase. At the capacity of 1.6mn tons, it will be good enough for Vinamilk in 5
years term.

Distribution networks
Vinamilk has the most extensive nationwide distribution network, which cover all 64
provinces. In FY11, the distribution network includes 232 distributors and 178,000 sale
outlets throughout the country (growth of 27% compare to FY10). Vinamilk continue to
expand and strengthen this network to be able to distribute directly to customer especially
in rural area where more than 70% of the population is. Rural area played a key role for
the sharp sale increase in recent years. Vinamilk will make the network more efficient by
building a factory in Danang and Thanh Hoa to strengthen its position in the central part of
Vietnam (none of the competitors have factory in this area).
Vinamilk use both modern and traditional distribution channel. Modern channel is to take
advantage of the increasing urbanization. However, traditional distribution (mom & pop
shops) channel is vital as it accounts for 80% of Vinamilk total sales.

Revenue & Profit Drivers
VNM achieved revenue growth rate at CAGR of 25% for the period from FY05-FY11. Of
this, powdered milk, liquid milk and yogurt had the strongest growth rate, achieving a
CAGR of 42%, 37% and 38% over the same period respectively. VNM has been focusing
more on premium products with better growth rate and better margin. Contribution of
liquid, powdered and yogurt become more important for Vinamilk to sustain growth in
revenue and profit.

Condensed milk has the lowest profit margin. We estimate the gross margin is 13%, in
which more than 80% of the COGs is raw materials. Volatility in raw material prices will
affect this product line the most. Liquid milk and yogurt have the gross margin of 35% and
44% respectively. The premium powdered segment has the highest margin of 61%;
however, foreigners dominate this segment. Vinamilk products are in the low-end to
middle-end. We estimate the gross margin for powdered milk is 38%. Those are the three
product lines that Vinamilk focuses on to grow revenues and profits.

Liquid milk
On average, liquid milk accounted for 31% of revenue for the past 4 years, reaching 35%
in FY11. Vinamilk is the market leader in this segment with a 40.9% of market share. For
the near term, liquid milk is still the most important driver for revenues and profits.
With the base of UHT milk, in FY11, Vinamilk introduced pasteurized milk and ADM added
milk to penetrate increasing demand for more nutrition & fresh milk. The ADM, which
come in 110 & 180 ml, targets children of hectic families. Demanding for convenience is
the key reasons for recent trend of switching from powdered GUM to read-to-drink white
and flavoured milk. With a historical CAGR for FY06-FY10 of 15.8% and expected CAGR
for FY11-FY15 of 13.1%, liquid milk remains a key growth and profit contributor. With rich
and pioneering products, Vinamilk will grow strong in this segment.
Plain white milk and flavoured milk still dominate the market. However, we do not see
much choice for customers in term of vitamin added products and low fat milk yet. Big
cities account for more than 70% of milk consumption. We had seen Vinamilk launched
ADM added liquid milk; this could be the beginning for a new trend of product series. We
believe VNM could still grow more than 15% in term of volume within this segment.

Powdered milk
This is the most attractive segment with high profit margin and strong near-term growth.
Vinamilk has 18.5% of market share in FY10 and contributed an average of 28% of total
revenue in FY08-FY11. Vinamilk targeted a 35% market share in FY11, but failed. The
significant high birth rate in FY12 (golden dragon year) will boost the growth rate in the
near future. CAGR for FY06-FY10 was 18.5%. According to EMI forecast, volume CAGR
for FY11-FY16 is 6.5%, however we expect growth rate will be higher compare to EMI
forecast from the current baby boom.
Parent wants the best products for their newborn child. Vietnameses perspective of
imported/ foreigner brand is superior and they are willing to pay higher price for it.
Vinamilks strategy of keeping a competitive price (average 10-30% lower compare to
international brand) and promoting the creditability of local brand with the campaign
Vietnamese use Vietnamese good, we expect Vinamilk will slowly increase its market

Yogurt milk
The market grew at CAGR of 7% for FY06-FY11, market size reached VND4tn in FY11.
Vinamilk dominates the market with 71% market share (92% market share of spoonable
yogurt). With more value added products (pre/pro-biotic, collagen product), good brand
name, and actively marketing strategy, segments sale achieved average growth rate of
53% for FY09-FY11.
We believe Vinamilk will stay dominant in this market with its current strategy. We expect
revenue growth will remain at 18% for medium term.
Condensed Milk
Vinamilks first product line, condensed milk had been the most contributor for VNM in
term of revenue and profit in the past. With long shelf-life and ease to use with boiling
water, it had been widely used as a nutrition food in the past and is now used in coffee/
juice sweetener in the local market. Those are the catalyst for condensed milk to grow
(CAGR for FY05-FY11 is 18%). VNM has 88% of this market, and we expect the growth
rate will be lower due to switching to liquid milk usage. Condensed milks revenue
contribution dropped from 28% in FY05 to 18% in FY11, and we expect this trend to
continue in VNM revenue proportion.
Other F&B
The segment is driven by fruit juice and soya milk. Currently, this segment is less
important in terms of revenue and profit; it contributes 1.6% in FY11 revenue. With 22%
market share in the beverage industry, we expect stronger growth rate for the coming
years. However due to the competitive landscape, the margin is low and the market size is
small (Market size is VND950 bn for FY11). To be conservative, we assume the volume
growth rate is 12% for next 5 years.

Dividend outlook
Historically, VNM has maintained a dividend payout ratio from 30-40%. With current and
future strong cash flow, we believe VNM could remain the dividend per share as VND
3,000 or even increase it in the future.

With the current price, the dividend yield is 3.5%, but with rich operation cash flow,
Vinamilk could increase future dividend if the management see fit.
Capital spending
Expected capital spending for FY12 is VND4.5tn, of which 65% is to expand production
capacity especially in drinking milk, yogurt and powdered milk. In August FY12, the
Danang factory was put in operation, bring an addition 77,000 tons of liquid milk and
26,000 tons of yogurt. We expect all of its under-construction factory to be operated in
FY13, bringing the total production capacity to 1.67mn tons.

Capex for the period from FY13-FY16 is VND3tn, so VNM will spend VND871bn annually
for the next 5 years. Most of the capital will be used for vertical investment, which improve
the self-sufficient rate of raw material.
Vinamilk focuses on improving efficiency and minimizing risks in long-run. Vietnam Dairy
cow will help Vinamilk to be proactive for liquid milk requirement. Its investment in New
Zealand based powdered milk producer (VNM bought 19.3% Miraka stake) will help on
stabilizing the import material and improve its brand name in powdered milk (Vietnamese
foreign brand name perspective). If Vinamilk could fulfil its target of having 28,000
(currently Vinamilk has 9,500 cow heads) cows by FY16, it could produce up to 80,000
tonnes of fresh milk and help Vinamilk to self-efficient 25% of fresh milk demand.

Investment on supply chain and warehouse also help Vinamilks distribution network,
which is its advantage, to improving information and product flow from Vinamilk to its sale
points. In order to maintain its leading position and manage increasing distribution
network, Vinamilk recognizes its role and continues its investment.
Valuation
We use a combination of P/E, P/B and Discounted Cash Flow methods to come up with
the target price. With stable cash flow and transparent CAPEX, we strongly rely on DCF.
We use the proportion of 15%, 15% and 70% respectively from above three methods. Our
12 months target price is VND106,000 per share.
DCF valuation
Our fair valuation for VNM by using DCF method is VND102,970 for FY12E per share for
core business based on WACC of 15.5% for FY12. We use a terminal growth rate of 3%
and 25% tax rate. Rolling our valuation forward to FY14E, per share value rise to
VND116,298, which implies a rise in valuation of 37.6% over a two year time horizon.

Since listing in FY06, VNM traded in a PER range of 8x-30x. In term of PBR the lowest is
2.9x and the highest of 8.8x. We believe it is reasonable for VNM to trade on a PER of 16x
and PBR of 4.5x, which is the long-term average. The target price makes sense to
recognize VNM forward growth potential.

Comparison with peers
Due to the size and the uniqueness of Vinamilk, we choose its peers as in the F& B sector
within Asia Pacific region. Vinamilk is currently trading at PER of 13.8x, which is lower
compare with the average of 17.2x of its peers, P/B is higher compare to average of 2.8x.
However, in term of ROE of 40.8%, ROA of 33.2% and current dividend yield 3.1%,
Vinamilk is almost twice of the peers average. Strong growth potential, high profit margin
and low relative comparison makes VNM look attractive within the group.

All Report Types
Analyst Certification
I, Anh Nguyen, hereby certify that the views expressed in this report accurately reflect my personal views about
the subject securities or issuers. I also certify that no part of my compensation was, is, or will be, directly or
indirectly, related to the specific recommendations or views expressed in this report. The equity research
analysts responsible for the preparation of this report receive compensation based upon various factors,
including the quality and accuracy of research, client feedback, competitive factors, and overall firm revenues,
which include revenues from, among other business units, Institutional Equities and Investment Banking.
VCSC Rating System and Valuation Methodology
Absolute performance, long term (fundamental) rating key: The recommendation is based on implied
absolute upside/downside for the stock from the target price, defined as (target price current price)/current
price, and is not related to market performance. This structure applies from 1 November 2010.
Equity rating key Definition
BUY If the target price is 20% higher than the market price
ADD If the target price is 10-20% higher than the market price
HOLD If the target price is 10% below or 10% above the market price
REDUCE If the target price is 10-20% lower than the market price
SELL If the target price is 20% lower than the market price
NOT RATED The company is or may be covered by the Research Department but no rating or
target price is assigned either voluntarily or to comply with applicable regulation
and/or firm policies in certain circumstances, including when VCSC is acting in an
advisory capacity in a merger or strategic transaction involving the company.
RATING SUSPENDED The investment rating and target price for this stock have been suspended as there is
not a sufficient fundamental basis for determining an investment rating or target. The
previous investment rating and target price, if any, are no longer in effect for this
stock.
Unless otherwise specified, these performance parameters only reflect capital appreciation and are set with a 12-
month horizon. Future price volatility may cause temporary mismatch between upside/downside for a stock
based on market price and the formal recommendation, thus these performance parameters should be
interpreted flexibly.
Small Cap Research: VCSC Research covers companies with a market capitalisation of up to USD50mn,
inclusively. Clients should note that coverage may not be consistent and that VCSC may drop coverage of small
caps at any time without notice.
Target price: In most cases, the target price will equal the analyst's assessment of the current fair value of the
stock. The target price is the level the stock should currently trade at if the market were to accept the analyst's
view of the stock, provided the necessary catalysts were in place to effect this change in perception within the
performance horizon. However, if the analyst doesn't think the market will reassess the stock over the specified
time horizon due to a lack of events or catalysts, then the target price may differ from fair value. In most cases,
therefore, our recommendation is an assessment of the mismatch between current market price and our
assessment of current fair value.
Valuation Methodology: To derive the target price, the analyst may use different valuation methods, including,
but not limited to, discounted free cash-flow and comparative analysis. The selection of methods depends on the
industry, the company, the nature of the stock and other circumstances. Company valuations are based on a
single or a combination of one of the following valuation methods: 1) Multiple-based models (P/E, P/cash flow,
EV/sales, EV/EBIT, EV/EBITA, EV/EBITDA), peer-group comparisons, and historical valuation approaches; 2)
Discount models (DCF, DVMA, DDM); 3) Break-up value approaches or asset-based evaluation methods;
and 4) Economic profit approaches (Residual Income, EVA). Valuation models are dependent on
macroeconomic factors, such as GDP growth, interest rates, exchange rates, raw materials, on other
assumptions about the economy, as well as risks inherent to the company under review. Furthermore, market
sentiment may affect the valuation of companies. Valuations are also based on expectations that might change
rapidly and without notice, depending on developments specific to individual industries.
Risks: Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results. Foreign currency rates of exchange may
adversely affect the value, price or income of any security or related instrument mentioned in this report. For
investment advice, trade execution or other enquiries, clients should contact their local sales representative.
