Ramayana reported sales were up 0.4% YoY to Rp336.5b in Jan 09. Same-store growth was in negative territory of -2.1%, the first negative SSG since July 2007. This was worse than the company’s guideline of 0.3% and our assumption of 0%.

Other drivers for sales growth this year is the election, government economy stimulus and wage increase which we believe could help purchasing power especially middle-low consumers.

Sales volume of 4W in January 09 fell by 22% YoY to 32,167 units. Toyota is reported gaining market share to around 40% compared to 33% in January 08. Sales volume drop in January 09 is lower than industry expectation of 32%.
