Manav Infra Projects Ltd. (MIPL) is engaged into the business of civil construction services such as piling, excavation, road construction, land leveling. The company also provides a complete range of earth moving machines and construction equipments on rent for all type of infrastructure and construction related work. List of MIPL customers include large size of construction and infrastructure companies like Kanakia Spaces Realty Private Limited, J Kumar Infra Projects Limited, ACC Limited, J P Infra Constructions, Simplex Infrastructure Limited, Man Infra Constructions Limited, Nirmal Lifestyle Limited amongst others.
To part finance its working capital and general corpus fund needs, the company is coming out with a maiden IPO of 1836000 equity share of Rs.10 each at a fixed price of Rs.30 per share to mobilize Rs. 5.51 crore. Issue opens for subscription on 04.09.17 and will close on 08.09.17. Minimum application is to be made for 4000 shares and in multiples thereon, thereafter. Post allotment shares will be listed on NSE SME Emerge. Issue is solely lead managed by Navigant Corporate Advisors Ltd. and Karvy Computershare Pvt. Ltd. is the registrar to the issue. The issue will constitute 26.86% of the post issue paid up capital of the company. Company’s equity is issued at par since incorporation till January 2012 and has issued bonus in the ratio of 3 for 2 in May 2017. Post issue, its current paid up equity capital of Rs. 5 crore will stand enhanced to Rs. 6.84 crore.
On performance front, for last four fiscals, MIPL has posted turnover/net profits of Rs. 11.97 cr./ Rs. 0.21 cr. (FY14), Rs. 16.23 cr. / Rs. 0.004 cr. (FY15), Rs. 16.44 cr. / Rs, 0.61 cr. (FY16) and Rs. 18.30 cr. / Rs. 1.03 cr. (FY17). It suffered a setback for FY15 despite higher other income. Sudden jump in bottom-line for FY16 and FY17 is due to deferred tax provisions. Last three fiscals average EPS of Rs. 3.60 and average RoNW of 15.29% is based on a paid up capital of Rs. 2 crore. If we attribute latest earnings on fully diluted equity post issue then asking price is at a P/E of 20 plus. Peers are trading around 20 to 23 P/E. Thus issue appears to be fully priced.
On merchant banker’s front, this is the 7th mandate from its stable in last three fiscals. Out of last 6 listings, 3 opened at discount, 1 at par, 1 with nominal premium and 1 with over 20% premium on the listing day.
Conclusion: Considering fully priced issue, risk savvy cash surplus investors may invest for long term.
