@IPO VALSAD Ji,
Q1 FY24 is not comparable with Q1FY23 due to consolidation & IndAs adjustment.
Q1 FY24 has grown 13% over Q1FY23 wherein Lighting business with Phillips grown 25% YoY & Industrial refrigeration also grown 25% YoY whereas export revenue shrinked 35% YoY because of inventory issue.
Philips has 50% market share in functional & decorative market in india & Signify (Philips) contribute 50% of total revenue of IKIO. The company works with Philips as strategic partner rather than as a vendor for it's lighting business. With Philips they will get opportunities to supply for Philips for international market as well.
They are investing around 212 crs to build 5 lakh square feet of capacity to be completely operational in next 24-30 months. It is divided into 3 blocks out of which 2 blocks of 2 lakh sq ft capacity and one block of 1 lakh sq ft capacity.
The block 1 of 2 lakh capacity will be completed by end of Q3 FY24 and will be operational by end of FY24.
Currently company has total are of 3 lakh sq ft and fixed asset turnover for this business is 5-5.5X as mentioned by management in Concall.
The company is expanding its product portfolio into industrial refrigeration where it has customer like Voltas, Frigoglass etc and it is also venturing into solution for recreational vehicles which has good market potential in USA.
On valuation front the company has P/E ratio of 46 on FY23 basis which is not much pricy considering it has growth of 20%+ and EBITDA margin of 21-22% which is highest in their segment. They get such good margin because company is fully backward integrated and they are original design manufacturer rather than outsourcer/contract manufacturer.
First half of the year contribute 45% while second half of the year contribute 55% of the revenue.
QoQ is not comparable rather YoY is comparable but Q1 & Q2 of FY23 is not comparable for Q1 & Q2 of FY 24 but going forward yes YoY is comparable.
I am closely monitoring this company performance and I expect 20%+ revenue growth over next few years and the company is not into commodity lighting rather into functional & decorative lighting and aspirational consumption is going to do much better going forward & they will get benefits of indigenous manufacturing and China+1 strategy.
Company is worth 2700 crores now and there is ample growth opportunities to grow for this company. Considering small size company with good growth prospects, 20% + margin, 35-40% ROE make it attractive for me.
Thanks 🙏
