How Expensive is Jollibee (JFC) now fundamentally based on their June 2017 Quarterly Report?

Jollibee Foods Corporation (JFC) was incorporated on January 11, 1978. JFC and its subsidiaries and affiliates are involved primarily in the development, operation and franchising of quick service restaurants (QSR) under the trade names "Jollibee", "Chowking", "Greenwich", "Red Ribbon", "Yong He King", "Hong Zhuang Yuan", "Mang Inasal", "Burger King", "Highlands Coffee", "Pho24", "12 Hotpot", "Dunkin' Donuts", and "Smashburger".

On November 18, 2016, JFC disclosed that it entered into an agreement through its subsidiary, JSF Investments Pte. Ltd. (JSF), with its JV partner, Viet Thai International Joint Stock Company (VTI), to make its JV company, Superfoods Group, a public company by listing it in the Vietnam Stock Exchange with an initial public offering (IPO) on or before July 2019. As part of the agreement to the IPO, the ownership of Superfoods Group will be adjusted with JFC, through JSF, owning 60% of the JV while VTI will own 40%.

Aside from the subsidiaries and affiliates which own and operate the JFC’s QSR trade names, the Company's other subsidiaries include Freemont Foods Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary which owns and operates Jollibee stores in Visayas and Mindanao, and Grandworth Resources Corporation, a real estate company which owns or leases some of the properties used as store sites.

By the end of 2016, there were 978 Jollibee stores nationwide, of which 483 were franchised and 495 are Company-owned. In international operations, Jollibee had 167 stores with 35 stores in the US, 84 in Vietnam, 26 in the Middle East, 14 in Brunei, four in Singapore, three in Hong Kong, and one in Canada.



As of Sept 19, 2017, JFC was last traded price at 244Php. This is 7 times higher compared to their recorded book value as according to their June 2017 quarterly report. A value investor may found this quite overvalued. But, perhaps because of its popularity, investors of this share perceived that the net worth of the company should be 7 times more than its current value. 

In terms of P/E, the company recorded a trailing P/E of 42.4 meaning, for every 1PHP earning last 2016, investors of this company are willing or is paying 42.4PHP. With a P/E value and with a growth rate of 24.4% from 2015 to 2016, the company trailing PEG ratio would also be 1.7 which means, investors of this company are paying 40.24PHP for every 1PHP income last 2016 for a growth rate of 24.4%. A fair valued stock usually has PEG ratio of 1 meaning, what you are paying for that earning- the P/E is equivalent to the growth rate- increase in EPS.

In terms of income, the first 6 months net income attributable to parents this year increases by 14% in comparison to last year first 6months net income.
