Citi: Post Management Meeting - Trimming Long Term EPS Growth from12% to 11%
Revisiting Our Definition of "Low Double Digit Growth" — While PG continues toguide for “low double digit” EPS growth over the long term, after having met withmanagement recently, we believe that earnings will grow more slowly than theStreet expects, and are downwardly revising our long term core EPS growth ratefrom 12% to 11% for PG. We Expect Top Line Growth Will Be in the Range of 4-6%, but Not Much Higher— PG wants to reaccelerate its top line growth, but we think that this may be hard to do, as the law of large numbers works against PG, both in mature anddeveloping markets. And, at least thus far, it doesn’t seem that G is adding the promised “100 bps” of incremental growth to PG’s top line. Higher Investment Spending is Needed, And Will Pressure Margins — If PG isto reaccelerate its revenue growth, we think it will have to reinvest more in both restructuring activities and marketing spending to thwart the heightened level of competitive activity in many of PG’s big product categories and geographies. Assuch, PG may miss its target for a roughly 24% operating margin by 2010. Conclusion — Given our belief that investors in the HPC group largely pay foraccelerating growth, which we don’t see on the horizon for PG in the near term,we maintain our Hold (2L) rating and $67 price target on PG’s shares.
