To part finance its working capital and general corpus needs, the company is coming out with a maiden IPO of 1336000 equity share of Rs. 10 each at a fixed price of Rs.18 per share to mobilize Rs. 2.40 crore. Issue open s for subscription on 15.03.17 and will close on 20.03.17. Minimum application is to be made for 8000 shares and in multiples thereon, thereafter. Post allotment, shares will be listed on BSE SME. Issue is solely lead managed by Pantomath Capital Advisors Pvt Ltd and Bigshare Services Pvt Ltd is the registrar to the issue. From 1996 till 2013 it issued equity at par and then allotted bonus shares in the ratio of 1 for 1 in October 2016. Its current paid up equity capital of Rs. 3.60 crore will stand enhanced to Rs. 4.94 crore post issue.
On performance front, it has posted turnover/net profits of Rs. 18.12 cr. / Rs. 0.44 cr. (FY13), Rs. 15.65 cr. / Rs. 0.43 cr. (FY14), Rs. 19.66 cr. / Rs. 0.85 cr. (FY15) and Rs. 20.24 cr. / Rs. 1.62 cr. (FT16). For first half of the current fiscal, it has earned net profit of Rs. 1.10 crore on a turnover of Rs. 13.83 cr. If we annualize these earnings and attribute on fully diluted equity post IPO then asking price is at a P/E of around 4 plus and below 1 P/BV. Thus issue is priced very attractively. It has no listed peers to compare with.
On merchant banker’s front, this is the 37th mandate from its stable and earlier mandates have expressed mixed trends.
Conclusion: Issue is attractively priced, hence investors may consider investment for medium to long term.
