Trident Texofab BSE SME IPO review (May apply)

Review By on September 17, 2017

Trident Taxofab Ltd. (TTL) is a multi-product fabric trading Company and its range includes home furnishing, bed sheets, scarf, pareos, suiting and shirting and technical textile fabrics, etc. Company’s product portfolio consists of finished, unfinished fabrics and value added fabrics.

To part finance its working capital and general corpus fund needs, TTL is coming out with a maiden IPO of 1176000 equity share of Rs. 10 each at a fixed price of Rs. 30 per share to mobilize Rs. 3.53 crore. Issue opens for subscription on 21.09.17 and will close on 26.09.17. Minimum application is to be made for 5000 shares and in multiples thereon, thereafter. Post allotment, shares will be listed on BSE SME. Issue is jointly lead managed by Guiness Corporate Advisors Pvt. Ltd. and Indian Overseas Bank (IOB). Karvy Computershare Pvt. Ltd. is the registrar to the issue. Having issued initial equity at par, it raised further equity in the price range of Rs. 35 to Rs. 100 per share (between January 2010 to May 2017) and has also issued bonus shares in the ratio of 7 for 1 in April 2017. Post issue, its current paid up equity capital of Rs. 2.82 crore will stand enhanced to Rs. 4 crore. Issue constitutes 29.43% of fully diluted post issue paid up equity capital of the company.

On performance front, for last four fiscals TTL has reported turnover/net profits of Rs. 60.52 cr. / Rs. 0.22 cr. (FY14), Rs. 62.65 cr. / Rs. 0.18 cr. (FY15), Rs. 66.03 cr./ Rs. 0.06 cr. (FY16) and Rs. 76.19 cr. / Rs. 0.34 cr. Thus while top line has been seeing upward trends, bottom line has witnessed roller coaster ride. For last three fiscals, it has posted an average EPS of Rs.0.70 and average RoNW of 5.93%. Issue is priced at a P/BV of 1.93. If we attribute latest earnings on fully diluted post issue equity then asking price is at a P/E of 35 plus against industry average of 20. Thus issue is priced aggressively.

On merchant banker’s front, from Guiness this is the 18th mandate from its stable in past three years and out of last 10 listings, 3 issues opened at discount, 1 at par and the rest with 3 to 20% premium on offer price on the listing day. From IOB this is the 5th mandate in last two years and out of last 4 listings all opened at a premium ranging from 12 to 20% on the day of listing.

Conclusion: Considering aggressive pricing, cash surplus risk savvy investors may consider investment for long term.
