In the mid-credit scene, we see Shazam invites Superman to his school in the lunch break.

From previous knowledge, we know that Shazam has been a part of Justice League. But there was no cameo of any of the Justice league character in the film, and that of Superman is faceless.

Do these two films exist in the same universe under the same franchise?

Somewhere on Youtube (a review channel), I heard, Henry Cavill didn't have dates for Shazam, was that the real reason?

Yes, and it has been said many times. Such as from indianexpress:

The movie is completely trackable on its own merit. That said, there a lot of fun little nods/homages/Easter eggs that can be enjoyed should one be caught up in the DCEU.”- Zachary Levi

Even director discussed about Aquaman joke too.

From Rrunpee:

According to every reliable internet source, Shazam is indeed set within the larger universe of the DC superheroes, at least from the ‘official DCEU starting point’ with Man of Steel, in 2013.

And they also list other sources too:

Screenrant says: the producers went to great lengths to only show background action figures the DCEU featured to date, holding back on
characters they haven’t allotted movie time to yet. It’s a deliberate
thing. It’s world-building.

ING.com reports: “So while Superman was battling Zod and then Batman and then Doomsday and then death and then Steppenwolf, Billy
Batson was being tossed around the foster care system.”

Also from CBR:

In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Shazam! producer Peter Safran said "I wouldn’t be surprised to see Shazam play a role in the DCU. He exists in that world." What's more, there is already a plan in place, should the character make further appearances in other films. Since actor Asher Angel, who plays young Billy Batson in the film, will continue to grow up at a rapid pace, there is a contingency to make this all work. "It’s something we’ve considered and have plans in place for sequels that take into account those realities," Safran teased.

I might have missed many other such interviews but I guess you got the point.

  completely trackable on its own merit is his personal opinion. Is there any particular reason for not having a cameo? It literally showed Superman faceless, why not just get Cavill to potray his own character? I suppose your answer is acceptable as it is directly towards the question. I will wait for sometime before accepting it though.

  @RC0993 it's low budget film and affording cameo maybe tough for them. And Cavil might be out of DCEU, we never know

  [UPVOTE] That's insightful. Although it's low budget film and affording cameo maybe tough for them I still don't buy this to be true (more like a guess). But I liked the research behind this answer. :)
