CP Axtra's Same-Store Sales Trend Indicates Consumption Weakness -- Market Talk

Dow Jones

Jul 09

0540 GMT - CP Axtra's same-store sales growth trend raises worry over consumption weakness, CGS International's Chaiyatorn Sricharoen says in a research report. This trend didn't improve meaningfully in June from April-May, despite the dissipation of weather-related disruptions that had earlier affected CP Axtra's beverage and air-conditioner sales. This reinforces the brokerage's view that this weakness is structural, pointing to a more fragile consumer environment. Gross margin of its Lotus's retail business may also narrow by 20bps in 2Q, pressured by lower proportion of high-margin non-food sales and intensified price competition. The brokerage downgrades the stock's rating to hold from add and lowers the target price to THB20.60 from THB29.00. Shares are 1.6% lower at THB18.80. (ronnie.harui@wsj.com)
