CKP Products Ltd (CPL) has obtained FSSAI registration for the purpose of operating as a ‘Food Business Operator – Distributor’ and is engaged in trading of edible oil, rice and pulses, Potato chips, Fryums and other Namkeens manufacturing etc.
To part finance its working capital requirements, incorporation land capitalization of overseas subsidiary and general corpus fund needs, CPL is coming out with a maiden IPO of 1248000 equity share of Rs. 10 each at a fixed price of Rs. 50 per share to mobilize Rs. 6.24 crore. Issue opens for subscription on 26.04.17 and will close on 28.04.17. Minimum application is to be made for 3000 shares and in multiples thereof, thereafter. Post allotment, shares will be listed on NSE SME Emerge. Aryaman Financial Services Ltd is the sole lead manager and Cameo Corporate Services Ltd is the registrar to the issue. Since incorporation till April 2016 it issued entire equity at par and then issued further equity at a price of Rs. 50 per share in September 2016. It has also issued bonus shares in the ratio of 3 for 4 in June 2016. Post issue its current paid up equity capital of Rs. 2.77 crore will stand enhanced to Rs. 4.02 crore.
It has started major activities from last fiscal only. As such on consolidated basis it has reported turnover of Rs. 72.63 with a net profit of Rs. 1.08 crore. For first nine months ended on 31.12.16 of the current fiscal, it has earned net profit of Rs. 1.29 crore on a turnover of Rs. 112.56 crore. If we annualize the latest earnings and attribute it on the fully diluted equity post issue, then asking price is at a P/E of around 11 plus and at a P/BV of 2.3 plus. Thus issue appears to have been justifiably priced. As per prospectus it considered Oasis Trade as its peer that is currently trading at a P/E of 65 plus.
On merchant banker’s front, this is the 18th mandate from its stable and last 10 listings have shown mixed trends.
Conclusion: Considering performance and the pricing aspect, investors may consider investment for medium to long term.
