Review By Dilip Davda on September 24, 2015
Franklin Leasing & Finance Ltd (FLF) is a a Non Deposit taking Non-systemically Important Non Banking Finance Company (NBFC-ND-NSI) registered with RBI to carry on NBFC Activities under Section 45-IA of the Reserve Bank of India Act, 1934. It is primarily engaged in the business of advancing loans and investing/trading in securities. FLF has commenced a process of improving its internal systems including but not limited to Trading Strategies, Financial Discipline and better utilization of fund based portfolio.
To meet its rising operational fund requirements, it is coming out with a maiden IPO of 4224000 equity share of Rs. 10 each at a fixed price of Rs. 15 per share to mobilize Rs. 6.34 crore. Issue opens for subscription on 30.09.15 and will close on 06.10.15. Minimum application is to be made for 8000 shares and in multiples thereon, thereafter. Issue is lead managed by Aaryaman Financial Services Ltd and Skyline Financial Services Pvt Ltd is the registrar to the issue.
Having issued equity capital at par since inception till the year 2000, it issued fresh equity at a price of Rs. 5000 per share (on Rs. 100 face value with a premium of Rs. 4900 per share) in March 2010 and March 2011. It issued bonus shares in the ratio of 15 for 1 in January 2015. Its current paid up equity capital of Rs. 11.56 crore will stand enhanced to Rs. 15.78 crore post IPO. Post allotment, shares will be listed on BSE SME.
On performance front, it has posted an average EPS of Rs. 0.19 for last three fiscals. For FY15 it has earned net profit of Rs. 0.35 crore on a total income of Rs. 1.85 crore posting an EPS of Rs. 0.30. If we attribute these earnings on fully diluted equity post IPO then resultant EPS will be Rs. 0.22 and thus asking price is at a P/E of 68 plus. Considering its NAV as on 31.03.15 of Rs. 25.66, it is issuing equity at a P/BV of 0.6.
On merchant banker’s front, this is 15th SME IPO from its stable and all past mandates have poor track records.
There is no harm in giving a miss to this expensive offer.

With crazy listings in the recent past, SME IPOs drew the attention of investors across the board and lead to seer madness. However, as SME issues have entry barriers and continued low preference from the broking community, any reader taking decisions based on any information published here does so entirely at their own risk.
