Investment Rationale
The longer-term narrative for NEST’s topline and earnings growth remains extremely attractive. Not only is the successful implementation of its growth strategy in recent years a positive, but the Packaged Foods segment in India also presents immense growth opportunities. This is particularly true for a company with a strong pedigree and distribution strength. In the near term, the stock offers better resilience at the top line v/s peers owing to the nature of its portfolio and its superior efficiency. However, current valuations of 70.5x CY21E EPS and 60.6x CY22E EPS appear to completely factor in upside for the next year.
