1 Retail Outlook 2016 Paul Martin UK Head of Retail KPMG UK For NG Retail Event, Dublin October 2016

2 Key factors impacting Retailers & Consumer Goods companies UK s referendum on EU membership The UK s leave vote is creating high market volatility and is weakening both business and consumer confidence. Initial impact will be predominantly focussed on fx rates with Sterling weakening Long-term volatility depends on future governments plan and exit negotiations with the EU 2. FX rates Sterling has already reached 31 year low against USD. This will specifically impact non-food retailers due to their high-dependency on USD buying The US has began the long haul back to a more normal interest rate policy at the end of last year which has strengthened the USD A number of currencies in key Export markets have lost significant value over recent years e.g. Russian Rouble 3. Low commodity prices Commodity prices have fallen significantly, with oil at $120 per barrel in now at around $40. Positive for consumers and business customers in the UK, but large oil companies will continue to struggle as their cashflow withers. Demand for other commodities is low, especially for industrial commodities, which is why prices may stay persistently low. Source: IMF 4. Continuing global uncertainties China will continue to decelerate with a predicted 6.8% growth in 2016 (IMF), dragging emerging markets down and slowing growth in rich nations. Brazil and Russia s recessions will continue with both economies to continue shrinking slowly in Eurozone debt crisis may also impact the economy, however it is showing slow signs of recovery Economic growth in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) is stagnating. 2

3 Brexit presents both challenge and opportunity What s going on: The UK will begin to exit the EU in April 2017 UK participation in the European Single Market is undecided The pound continues to fall against the dollar, with an expectation towards parity Challenges Unforseen FX hedging costs Personnel costs may rise - National living wage will likely raise costs Businesses will be expected to invest in and train its staff Restriction in migration may result in higher labour cost Sourcing international design talent might be impacted A pricing policy decision will need to be made to pass on or absorb costs Potential for longer inventory times and customs hassles If exporting to Europe could incur costs e.g. customs warehousing Data privacy and sharing laws will need to be reviewed (e.g. Denmark) Opportunities Lower tariffs - no longer paying external EU tariffs on clothes Positive exposure to /$ if trading overseas Business models that are more efficient or relies on less staff are likely to be more successful in the current environment Sourcing locally could offer cost savings, though first need to consider our competitive position Originally tariff-free sources of product will have to change (e.g. Turkey), but Bangladesh, India and China are still relatively lower cost options Potentially positive impact on the share price (inverse to dollar/pound) Source: interview with KPMG BRC Expert Mark Essex 3

15 Case study: Trader Joe s World s leading private label organic supermarket High Sales Density Founded in in 1958 in California, this chain is owned by ALDI since 1979 Over 450 stores in the US located Phenomenal growth: sales up from $2.1bn in 2003 to $9.4bn in 2014 For the last three years named by consumers as their overall favourite store (survey by Market Force Information) Trader Joe s doesn t pick up on trends it sets them A Trader Joe s buyer Trader Joe s stores operate at one of the highest sales density levels in the US over $1,750 per sq. f. Value Proposition TJ is targeting different customer segments: from cost-conscious to cool college kids to trendy well-heeled urbanites What s unique Elevate food shopping from a chore to a cultural experience Focus on gourmet, organic, natural, MSG free products, mostly private label Quirky fashionable products at a Walmart s price point, many of which you won t see anywhere else (80% of stock is own label) Friendly neighbourhood store type customer service Operating Model Standardised store layout with most locations about 1,100m2 Low SKU count (4,000) they don t carry all the necessities Whenever possible, Trader Joe s purchases directly from the manufacturers Small stores rely on timely distribution and don t have large back rooms Good pay and employee culture help maintain customer service and low employee turnover (4%) Competing on price is not the only option TJ is an example of how a chain with many characteristics of a discounter can position themselves differently and target different customer segments Some of the Trader Joe's-branded products are already in Aldi stores in Europe when will they be in Croatia? 15 15
