Penta Gold Ltd. (PGL) is a retailer, wholesaler and exporter of gold jewellery. It has a retail outlet in Mumbai. PGL primarily sell gold jewellery i.e. Chains, Rings, Bangles, Necklace, Mangalsutra, Bracelet, Earrings and other jewellery studded or non-studded with pearls, diamonds, American diamonds and other precious stones. Further, it also has product line of antique and kundan Jewellery and variety of Italian jewellery products which is famous for its machine designs and light weighted jewellery.
To part finance its working capital and general corpus fund needs, PGL is coming out with a maiden IPO of 3600000 equity shares of Rs. 10 each at a fixed price of Rs.37 per share to mobilize Rs. 13.32 crore. Issue opens for subscription on 23.03.18 and will close on 27.03.18. Minimum application is to be made for 3000 shares and in multiples thereon, thereafter. Post allotment shares will be listed on NSE SME Emerge. Issue is solely lead managed by Inventure Merchant Banker Services Pvt. Ltd. and Karvy Computershare Pvt. Ltd. is the registrar to the issue. Issue constitutes 28.29% of the post issue paid up capital of the company. Having raised initial equity at par, it raised further equity in the price range of Rs. 40 and Rs. 50 per share and has also issued bonus shares in the ratio of 1 for 1 in December 2016. Average cost of acquisition of shares by the promoters is Rs. 9.59 per share. Post issue, its current paid up equity capital of Rs. 9.13 cr. will stand enhanced to Rs. 12.73 cr.
This company earlier tried to mobilize funds in the month of September 2017 at a price of Rs. 35 per share, but withdrew its plan at that time. Issue that opened on 04.09.17 stood withdrawn on 12.09.17. At that time, my assessment was “Avoid”.
On performance front, PGL posted turnover/net profits of Rs. 838.26 cr. /Rs. 1.38 cr. (FY14), Rs. 250.02 cr. / Rs. 1.58 cr. (FY15), Rs. 244.92 cr. / Rs. 1.78 cr. (FY16) and Rs. 237.58 cr. / Rs. 1.69 cr. (FY17). For first half of current fiscal, it has earned net profit of Rs.1.31 cr. on a turnover of Rs. 110.48 crore which appears to be a window dressing before IPO. For last three fiscals, it has posted an average EPS of Rs.1.92 and an average RoNW of 11.96%. Issue is priced at a P/BV of 1.98 on the basis of its NAV of Rs.18.69 as on 30.09.17 and at a P/BV of 1.62 on the basis of post issue NAV of Rs. 22.85. It has shown declining trends in top line and marginal increase in bottom lines. If we annualize latest earnings and attribute it on fully diluted equity post issue, then asking price is at a P/E of around 18. First half net profit is a bit surprising one. It has shown DP Abhushan, Vaibhav Global and Renaissance as its peers that are trading at a P/E of around 31 , 59 and 18 respectively. (as on 20.03.18) and industry average P/E is around 39.
On merchant banker’s front, this is 7th mandate from its stable and out of last 6 listings, 4 closed below the offer price and two with a marginal premium below 1% on the day of listing (as per offer documents).
This Company tried for its maiden IPO in September 2017, but was withdrawn. Its financial performance is not remarkable one. Prevalent dull sentiment for the sector following recent scam is also a concern. Hence cash surplus risk savvy investors may consider investment for long term.
