UPDATE Alpargatas BBI Equity Research Tuesday, August 19, 2014 A Buy Opportunity with Improving Earnings Momentum Adjusting our forecasts after new guidance and meeting with management. After the 2Q14 earnings release, which brought new guidance for 2014, and our meeting with several top executives today, we are confident that Alpargatas’ results will improve considerably in the coming quarters. We expect ALPA4 to begin positive earnings momentum, and after updating our numbers, we forecast EPS growth of 24% YoY in the next 12 months (the company reported a 14% drop in EPS in 1H14). The stock has underperformed in recent weeks, but we believe the better outlook should help change this situation. We continue to like Alpargatas’ long-term potential, maintaining our Outperform rating, mainly due to: (i) greater flexibility arising from the new manufacturing facility (Montes Claros); (ii) the roll-out of Havaianas’ apparel products; and (iii) continued expansion and increasing profitability in the US and European operations. New estimates and impact on our target price. We have updated our forecasts for Alpargatas, incorporating the company’s guidance for the year and some insights from talks with management. A weak 1H14 has led us to lower our EPS estimates by 10% on average for 2014-2016, despite improvement forecasted for 2H14. However, we have also rolled forward our target price to YE15. On the whole, our new target price of R$14.00 for ALPA4 is 2% below the previous one. COMPANY REPORT Analyzing feasibility of Alpargatas’ guidance. Alpargatas’ guidance for volume growth in Brazil’s flip-flop division of 5%-7% looks feasible. Despite a 2% YoY decline in 1H14, July’s performance of 29% and easy comps in 3Q13 (volumes down 5% YoY) give confidence of a strong 3Q14. If 20ish percent growth in 3Q14 is confirmed, 4Q14 growth would have to be just in line with the annual guidance for ALPA to deliver its target. It is worth noting that management mentioned 10% growth in Brazil flip-flop volumes in today’s meeting. Regarding Argentina (+6%-8% volumes), it seems an easy target, as it implies 11% YoY volume contraction in 2H14. In the case of consolidated net revenues, growing 10%-12% (guidance) means just a slight acceleration from the 9% reported for 1H14. The volume growth guidance of 5% for sporting goods in Brazil looks a little harder to achieve, although not impossible. Considering the steep 18% decline in 1H14, we should see an average of 25% in 2H14 for the year’s target to be met. This is possible with improvement in Mizuno product lines (see more on page 4) and normalization of the market for non-World-Cup-related items. The most challenging part of the guidance seems to be maintaining EBITDA margin flat, but considering the acceleration in volume growth and less pressure from the Montes Claros plant’s ramp-up and World Cup-related marketing expenses, it seems to be an achievable target.

Besides Marcio Utsch (CEO), José Lettiere (CFO), and the IR team (Salvio Moraes and Mariane Weger), Carla Schmitzberger (Head of the Flip-Flop Division), Fernando Beer (Chief Sporting Goods Officer), Javier Goñi (CEO of Alpargatas Argentina) and Fabio Leite (Chief Corporate Strategy and New Business Officer) were also present. We offer below some of the highlights and main takeaways, divided by topic: 1) Havaianas (flip-flop business) Our takeaways. Management seemed confident about flip-flop volume growth both in Brazil and abroad. The introduction of apparel products has been successful, based on the company’s planning, although it needs some fine-tuning (as expected). Management also commented on a reversal of the Montes Claros plant’s impact in COGS due to its ramp-up, as it should have easy comps in the coming quarters. They mentioned that flipflop volume growth in Brazil should be ~20% YoY in 2H14 and consequently ~10% in fullyear 2014. In our estimates, we have assumed a number closer to the upper end (6.7%) of the official guidance released together with 2Q14 earnings results (5%-7%). Main highlights: Growth in Brazil. Management said it is comfortable about volume growth in Brazil for the coming years, despite already selling one pair per capita in the country, aiming to incentivize consumers to have more pairs of Havaianas, either in terms of colors/patterns or models (standard, slim, flat, etc.). They have indicated 20% volume growth in 2H14, which would mean ~10% for full-year 2014 (above the official guidance of 5%-7%). Growth outside of Brazil. In this case, there is much more room to grow. The key is to understand and correctly address each market’s needs and peculiarities. Apparel. In the three stores that already have the products, apparel accounts for ~30% of sales. This level is very satisfactory, according to management, although apparel gives the impression that it occupies a larger sales area in the stores than just 30%. Although non-flip-flop categories, such as apparel, will have smaller margins than flip-flops, the final outcome should be positive, as the effect on brand equity should be largely favorable. Pricing strategy. Alpargatas prices its products (for all divisions) based on a perceived value approach, not a cost-plus approach. Price repositioning, through the launch of “Havaianas Flat” and the repositioning of “Havaianas Slim”, has contributed to improving Alpargatas’ positioning in products in the R$14 to R$20 range. This has been contributing to market share recovery. Alpargatas has a ~50% share of the Brazilian flip-flop market. However, excluding the unbranded market (very popular in the Northeast and interior of Brazil), its share would jump to above 70%. Changes in flip-flop production respond very quickly after a decision to increase or reduce output (~30 days). Such changes in sporting goods usually take much longer (7-8 months). The ramp-up of the Montes Claros plant should stop having a negative impact on results starting in 3Q14. 2) Sporting Goods (Brazil) 3 COMPANY REPORT BBI Equity Research – Tuesday, August 19, 2014 Our takeaways. The division’s results seem to have been significantly affected by a miss in Mizuno’s last collection. It was a global issue, which also affected Mizuno in other regions (such as the US). The new collection seems to have been fixed, but we should still see some impact from the old collection’s inventories, which are being sold at discounts. Main highlights: Mizuno’s last fashion collection was problematic, with too many colorful products and a design that, although being highly enhanced technologically, did not give consumers the impression of good value for their price (lighter products, less sticking, etc.). Inventories of finished sporting goods products are currently around 60 days (having decreased from ~90 days). The company still has the old and problematic collection in its inventories, and should continue giving discounts to sell them, but the operations will gradually normalize. As cited before, changes in sporting goods production after a decision to increase or reduce output take 7 to 8 months, as most of the products are imported. 3) US, Europe and Exports Our takeaways. This division continues to be a good growth opportunity for Alpargatas, with interesting potential in all regions. Europe is a more mature and profitable business, but there are still some opportunities to be captured. In the United States, Alpargatas is still ramping up, and should increase sales volumes and profitability over time. Meanwhile, exports offer a huge opportunity, including the possibility of launching direct operations in other regions and capturing huge margin improvement (although having to invest more working capital). Main highlights: The gross margin for direct operations (US and Europe) is 2x-3x larger than that for exports. Asia. The company is determining the location for its office in Asia. Initially, it should be related more to sourcing and marketing. It should not be a full, direct operation modeled after its US and Europe divisions, at least not at first. Asia represents a good opportunity, but we should be careful to avoid overstating it. For example, China has a huge population, but very low temperatures in winter (not good for flip-flop sales) and a large population with low average income (Havaianas’ business is about brand and perceived value, not price). India has an average consumer price of US$2 for flip-flops, making Havaianas too expensive for the vast majority of its population. However, the potential market for Havaianas in the country could reach 120mn people, which is not bad. 4) Argentina Our takeaways. The restructuring process in Argentina was very successful in trimming costs and expenses. The macroeconomic environment does not help market growth much, but Topper seems well positioned in the local competitive environment, as it sources its products locally and exports have become too expensive after depreciation of the peso. Moreover, a presidential change there (elections are scheduled for October 2015) could improve the economic environment and consumer confidence. 4 COMPANY REPORT BBI Equity Research – Tuesday, August 19, 2014 Main highlights: The market for sporting goods amounts to ~30mn pairs. The main categories are running and casual (70% of the market). The company has developed good expertise in reading global trends and quickly bringing them into Argentina. There is potential to improve EBITDA margin by 200-300bps. Labor accounts for ~50% of the division’s COGS. Investments in R&D are a key driver in this division, and should bring margin expansion and better prices. 5) Osklen Our takeaways. Management is still not giving many details about Osklen. One interesting piece of news learned is that Alpargatas’ management expects EBITDA growth of 13% in FY14 vs. the 12 months ended in February 2014, and 10% YoY growth in 2015. Main highlights: There are some synergies between Osklen and Havaianas apparel products in terms of sourcing, but not much in design and channels. The intention is not to use Osklen (or its main designer, Oskar Metsavath) to design products for Havaianas, as the company does not want to create dependence or change the brand’s identity. The 13x EV/EBITDA multiple paid in the acquisition (based on the last 12 months ended in Feb. 2014) should come down to 11.5x in 2014 and 10.5x in 2015. As a result, the implicit LTM EBITDA ended in Feb. 2014, of R$41mn, should grow to R$46mn for FY14 and R$50mn for 2015. 6) Hedging Our takeaways. Although there should be volatility in the quarterly hedging results, we should expect a lesser impact than the one seen in 2Q14, as the accounting policy basis normalizes (see more below). This is an important instrument to protect the company’s cash flows from FX volatility, given Alpargatas’ COGS exposure to FX (~50% of its COGS is denominated in USD), and should not be too relevant on a 12-month basis. Main highlights: The company hedges 70% of its exposure for the next 3 months, 50% for the next 6 months and 25% for the next 9 months. Since 3Q13, it has adopted hedging accounting, which recognizes the impact of hedging when the contracts are actually settled. Previously, it recognized the full impact every quarter through a mark-to-market approach. Therefore, the YoY impact from the hedging instruments should be much less relevant than in 2Q14 (shifting from +R$29mn in 2Q13 to -R$6mn in 2Q14). 5 COMPANY REPORT BBI Equity Research – Tuesday, August 19, 2014 Key Figures - Alpargatas (Ticker: ALPA4) Incom e Statem ent (R$m n) Net revenues Change YoY COGS Gross profit SG&A Expenses Other Operating Results Amortization EBIT Change YoY D&A Adjusted EBITDA Change YoY Reported EBITDA Change YoY Equity income Net Financial Result Pretax incom e Income taxes Minority interest Net incom e Change YoY EPS Change YoY % of Net Revenues Gross Margin SG&A expenses EBIT Margin Adjusted EBITDA Margin Reported EBITDA Margin Net Financial Results Income tax rate (% of pre-tax income) Net Margin Balance Sheet (R$m n) Current + long term assets Cash + Cash Equivalents Inventories Net Receivables Other Perm anent assets Total assets Current + long term liabilities Accounts Payable Total debt ST + LT Other Minority interest Shareholders' equity Total liabilities 2012 2013 2014E 2015E 2016E 3,007 17% (1,734) 1,273 (898) (17) (24) 335 5% 61 395 6% 414 2% (43) 8 300 (19) (0) 281 -9% 0.61 -9% 3,426 14% (2,006) 1,420 (1,000) (43) (25) 352 5% 67 419 6% 494 20% (27) 22 347 (38) 310 10% 0.67 10% 3,811 11% (2,265) 1,545 (1,107) (6) (26) 407 15% 75 482 15% 509 3% (30) (5) 372 (42) 330 7% 0.71 7% 4,358 14% (2,536) 1,821 (1,263) (22) (30) 507 25% 86 593 23% 639 25% (31) (32) 445 (51) 394 20% 0.85 20% 4,887 12% (2,801) 2,085 (1,405) (24) (33) 622 23% 97 719 21% 770 20% (34) (35) 553 (87) 466 18% 1.00 18% 2012 2013 2014E 2015E 2016E 42.3% -29.9% 11.1% 13.2% 13.8% 0.3% -6.4% 9.3% 41.5% -29.2% 10.3% 12.2% 14.4% 0.6% -10.8% 9.0% 40.6% -29.1% 10.7% 12.7% 13.4% -0.1% -11.3% 8.7% 41.8% -29.0% 11.6% 13.6% 14.7% -0.7% -11.4% 9.0% 42.7% -28.8% 12.7% 14.7% 15.8% -0.7% -15.7% 9.5% 2012 2013 2014E 2015E 2016E 2,030 504 513 885 128 1,398 3,428 1,450 422 473 556 1,978 3,428 2,312 595 578 1,010 128 1,453 3,765 1,558 475 528 556 2,207 3,765 2,624 737 629 1,130 128 1,564 4,189 1,678 523 600 556 2,510 4,189 1,839 617 444 694 84 902 2,741 1,080 359 360 361 5 1,656 2,741 2,184 814 468 802 101 1,178 3,362 1,528 384 608 536 1,834 3,362 Cash flow (R$m n) 2012 2013 2014E 2015E 2016E EBIT (=) Depreciation (+) Taxes (-) Changes in Working Capital (+/-) Capex (-) Free Cash Flow to the Firm (=) Interest Expenses Debt Variation Free Cash Flow to Equity 335 61 (22) (219) (206) (51) 8 188 145 352 67 (38) (106) (273) 2 22 (383) (359) 407 75 (46) (91) (437) (92) (5) 190 93 507 86 (58) (137) (172) 226 (32) 18 212 622 97 (98) (122) (242) 257 (35) 14 235 Key Indicators 2012 2013 2014E 2015E 2016E P/E P/BV FCF per share P/Free cash flow Free cash flow yield EV/EBITDA EV/Sales ROE (final) ROIC Dividend per Share (R$) Pay out Dividend yield Net debt (BRL million) Net debt/ Shareholders' equity Net debt/ EBITDA EBITDA/ Net Interest Expenses 17.4 3.0 0.3 33.7 3.0% 11.7 1.5 17% 19% 0.21 34% 2.0% (257) -0.2 -0.7 -48.9 15.8 2.7 -0.8 -13.6 -7.3% 11.2 1.4 17% 15% 0.24 35% 2.2% (207) -0.1 -0.5 -19.0 14.8 2.5 0.2 52.6 1.9% 10.1 1.3 17% 15% 0.25 35% 2.4% (31) 0.0 -0.1 105.3 12.4 2.2 0.5 23.1 4.3% 8.1 1.1 18% 18% 0.30 35% 2.8% (68) 0.0 -0.1 18.8 10.5 1.9 0.5 20.8 4.8% 6.6 1.0 19% 19% 0.35 35% 3.3% (137) -0.1 -0.2 20.3 Operating Indicators Consolidated Volume (mn pairs/ pieces) Avg.
