ISSUE DETAILS/CAPITAL HISTORY:
The company is coming out with its maiden book building route IPO of 4564000 equity shares of Rs. 10 each to mobilize Rs. 26.47 cr. at the upper cap. It has announced a price band of Rs. 55 - Rs. 58 per share. The issue opens for subscription on August 08, 2024, and will close on August 12, 2024. The minimum application to be made is for 2000 shares and in multiples thereon, thereafter. Post allotment, shares will be listed on NSE SME Emerge. The issue constitutes 26.50% of the post-IPO paid-up capital of the company. From the net proceeds of the IPO, it will utilize Rs. 15.00 cr. for working capital, Rs. 8.00 cr. for capex, and the rest for general corporate purposes.
The issue is solely lead managed by Narnolia Financial Services Ltd., and Skyline Financial Services Pvt. Ltd. is the registrar to the issue. Nikunj Stock Broker Ltd. is the market maker for the company.
Having issued initial equity shares at par value, the company issued further equity shares in the price range of Rs. 59 - Rs. 200 per share between March 2010 and November 2013. It has also issued bonus shares in the ratio of 14 for 1 in March 2024. The average cost of acquisition of shares by the promoters is Rs. 0.67, Rs. 0.98, Rs. 2.43, and Rs. 7.33 per share.
Post-IPO, company's current paid-up equity capital of Rs. 12.66 cr. will stand enhanced to Rs. 17.22 cr. Based on the upper IPO price band, the company is looking for a market cap of Rs. 99.88 cr.
FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE:
On the financial performance front, for the last two fiscals, the company has (on a consolidated basis) posted a total income/net profit of Rs. 40.36 cr. / Rs. 1.13 cr. (FY23), Rs. 60.80 cr. / Rs. 5.03 cr. (FY24). Surprisingly, the company has given its financial data in Rs. thousands against Rs. in Lakhs or Rs. in million. This appears to be an eyewash.
For the last two fiscals, it has reported an average EPS of Rs. 7.09, and an average RoNW of 26.21%. The issue is priced at a P/BV of 4.89 based on its NAV of Rs. 11.87 as of March 31, 2024, and at a P/BV of 2.41 based on its post-IPO NAV of Rs. 24.10 per share (at the upper cap).
If we attribute FY24 super earnings to its post-IPO fully diluted paid-up capital, then the asking price is at a P/E of 19.86, Thus the issue appears fully priced.
For the reported periods, the company has posted PAT margins of 2.81% (FY23), 8.28% (FY24), and RoCE margins of 0.18%, 0.37% respectively for the referred periods.
DIVIDEND POLICY:
The company has not declared any dividends in any financial year so far. It will adopt a prudent dividend policy based on its financial performance and future prospects.
COMPARISON WITH LISTED PEERS:
As per the offer document, the company has shown Innovators Facade as their listed peer. It is trading at a P/E of 26.0 (as of August 06, 2024). However, they are not comparable on an apple-to-apple basis.
MERCHANT BANKER'S TRACK RECORD:
This is the 11th mandate from Narnolia Financial in the last two fiscals (including the ongoing one), out of the last 10 listings, 1 opened at discount and the rest listed with premiums ranging from 4.35% to 110.36% on the date of listing.
