Vietnam: Ani-drink driving law takes its toll on Sabeco’s beer volumes
|
Vietnam’s new anti-drunk driving law took its toll on Sabeco’s beer volumes, the Singapore Business Review reported on February 18.
Concerns over drink driving laws in Vietnam dragged ThaiBev’s share price down 11.8% YTD, according to an analyst report by DBS Group Research.
OCBC Investment Research (OIR) echoed a similar sentiment, adding that the fall in share price could be largely attributed to the 9.8% correction after Sabeco announced its full year results in January with 6% YoY fall in revenue due to weaker sales volume.
However, OIR also mentioned that the management is confident in Sabeco's outlook given its strong branding in off premise and rural areas. DBS’ report also stated that Vietnam’s anti-drunk driving law will have a lesser impact due to Sabeco’s skew towards off-trade consumption.
“Given the outbreak of COVID-19, management expects to see larger impact from its Food segment but its contribution to 1QFY20 was minimal at 1.8%. We see any additional stimulus package from Thai government as positive on domestic consumption,” said Chu Peng, analyst at OIR.
Furthermore, RHB is also expecting Sabeco’s earnings growth to decelerate to the mid-to-high digits in FY2020. The report also noted that at the PATMI level, ThaiBev’s beer segment only constituted 2% of

The Philippines: San Miguel Food and Beverage, Inc. gets approval to raise P15 bln through bonds
|
The Securities and Exchange Commission has approved the plan of San Miguel Food and Beverage, Inc. (SMFB) to raise ₱15 billion through bonds, CNN Philippines reported on February 19.
The regulator said on February 19 that it has given the green light for the company to issue fixed-rate debt notes, which will mature in five or seven years.
The listed firm revealed its plan to float bonds in November. These papers have been given the highest credit rating by the Philippine Rating Services Corporation, vouching for SMFB's ability to pay its dues.
SMFB, which is the food unit of conglomerate San Miguel Corporation, said the offering would yield around ₱14.8 billion for the company, which it will use to settle maturing loans by March 12.
The bonds can be availed through a minimum ₱50,000 investment plus increments of ₱10,000, and will be listed on the bond trading platform Philippine Dealing & Exchange Corp.
BDO Capital & Investment Corp., BPI Capital Corporation, China Bank Capital Corporation, Philippine Commercial Capital, Inc., PNB Capital and Investment Corporation, RCBC Capital Corporation and SB Capital Investment Corporation have been tapped as joint lead underwriters and bookrunners for the offer, the SEC said.

Japan: Kirin Holdings opposes proposal to divest assets outside of beer business
|
Japan’s Kirin Holdings Co Ltd opposed on Febuary 19 a proposal by an activist shareholder that it divest assets outside its beer business, saying investments in areas such as healthcare were crucial to its business, Reuters reported.
UK-based Independent Franchise Partners (IFP), which owns a 2% stake in Kirin, has called on the company to focus on beer, sell non-core businesses and use proceeds from sales to buy treasury stocks worth 600 billion yen ($5.45 billion).
“The board is strongly opposed to Franchise Partner’s proposal that all non-beer assets be sold,” the company said in a statement.
IFP’s chief executive Hassan Elmasry told reporters in Tokyo on a conference call the company will convince other shareholders to support its proposal for divesting assets outside Kirin’s beer business.
“We regret that Kirin management have not accepted our compromised offer in the constructive spirit in which it was given,” Elmasry said.
“Instead, we aim to convince other shareholders on the merit of the proposal at the annual general meeting (AGM),” he said. Kirin is set to hold its AGM in March.
Given that beer consumption in Japan has more than halved since the 1990s, Kirin has diversified its revenue sources by moving into the pharmaceutical business with affiliate

South Africa: AB InBev’s South African Breweries to list its black economic empowerment ownership scheme on the JSE
|
AB InBev’s South African Breweries (SAB) unit plans to list its new R5.4 billion broad-based black economic empowerment (B-BBEE) ownership scheme, dubbed SAB Zenzele Kabili, on the JSE on April 15, Moneyweb.co.za reported on February 18.
The move, which will also see black retail investors now being able to secure shares in the beer giant, was announced by Richard Rivett-Carnac – SAB and AB InBev Africa mergers, acquisitions and treasury director – at an event at the JSE in Sandton on February 17.
It comes as the landmark SAB Zenzele B-BBEE scheme is set to wind down in April, having been launched 10 years ago under the old SABMiller stable. SAB, which is now part of the world’s largest brewing group AB InBev, forecasts that the original scheme will have generated almost R14 billion in value for South Africa upon its unwinding.
“SAB Zenzele has disbursed some R4 billion to shareholders since its inception in 2010, with an additional R9.6-billion to be paid out when it winds up in April,” says Rivett-Carnac.
He adds that he is looking forward to the next chapter with SAB Zenzele Kabili.
“We are excited to offer SAB Zenzele shareholders the opportunity to partner and invest in SAB Zenzele Kabili

Norway: Sales of non-alcoholic beer reach new record in 2019
|
10.6 million litres of non-alcoholic beer were sold in Norway in 2019, a new record for the Scandinavian country.
The figure, which applies to country’s the entire beverage industry, was reported by news bureau NTB reported on February 17.
Increasing popularity of non-alcoholic beer is linked to a wider selection and improving quality of products, according to Henrik Lund, marketing manager for alcohol-free beer Ringnes, a major Norwegian brewery.
“The good taste experience and the high quality of the brewery means that alcohol-free beer is no longer seen as a substitute for beer with alcohol,” Lund told NTB.
While 2019 was a record year for non-alcoholic beer, 2020 has begun by setting an unprecedented pace for sales of the product.
During the first three weeks of January, sales of non-alcoholic beer increased by as much as 10 percent compared to 2019.
Increasing awareness regarding fitness and health, making more people consider their alcohol intake, is helping to boost the sector, Lund said.
“We believe (the January figures are) primarily due to a stronger focus on health and fitness in January,” he told NTB.
“This is due not only to a desire to reduce alcohol consumption after Christmas and New Year's celebrations, but also the fact that beer without

Malaysia: Heineken confirms price increases for certain selected products
|
Heineken Malaysia Bhd has confirmed it is going to increase prices of certain selected products come March 1, due to rising operating costs, The Edge Markets reported on February 18.
The selective price adjustment, it said in a statement on February 18, applies primarily to products that are in the keg format.
“We wish to clarify that the selective price adjustment applies primarily on the keg format. In Peninsular Malaysia, there is no increase in price for cans and bottles format for Heineken®, Tiger, Tiger Crystal, Guinness, Apple Fox, Strongbow Gold Apple, and Anglia Shandy. In East Malaysia, there is an adjustment for quarts (big bottles) for selected brands only,” it said.
It further clarified that the price of its Paulaner beer is only adjusted by 6.5% and not 20.25%, and that there is no price increase for Heineken 0.0.
The Edge Markets reported on February 18 that the brewer, which last raised prices of its beers by up to 5% last April, was going to raise prices for selected products from March 1 due to rising costs.
Last December, Heineken managing director Roland Bala had hinted that the brewer would increase its prices if necessary, and very selectively, when asked if there would be

Canada: Barley production forecast to decrease in 2020-21
|
For 2019-20, barley production in Canada increased to 10.4 million tonnes, largely due to higher harvested area and higher yields, Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada said in their latest report published on February 14.
The total supply of barley increased by 17% from 2018-19 as higher production more-than offset the decrease in carry-in stocks which are historically low. The domestic use of barley is expected to increase significantly from 2018-19, largely due to higher feed use.
Exports are expected to increase slightly while carry-out stocks increase sharply, the analysts said.
The average price of feed barley is expected to be lower than 2018-19 due to the increased supply in Canada, the US and around the world. The supply of barley in the US increased due to higher production and projection for higher imports, according to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). Carry-out stocks are forecast to rise due to an increase in supply exceeding the growth in total use.
World barley production and supply increased to the highest level since 1994-95. Barley production increased in the major exporting countries, including the EU, Russia and Ukraine. World trade is projected to rise due to higher supply and forecasts for increased imports
