    Investment Rationale
    Weak performance continued in 4Q (revenue declined 5%; 2-year CAGR decline of 7%). Portfolio-specific headwinds (higher formal and fashion salience) continued to hurt; some of the peers have already seen good recovery. The brokerage notes several initiatives by Bata to accelerate recovery – (1) ramping up sales from new channels (ChatShop, Home Delivery, Store on Wheels), (2) capturing semi-urban / rural demand through franchisee stores, and (3) restarting promotional campaigns and new launches. That said, Bata is likely to be a key beneficiary of ‘full unlocking’. Inferior product mix (away from formals & fashion and more towards open style footwear), is likely to put further pressure on profitability till then.
