Swiss Military Aug 22 RI review (May apply)

Swiss Military Consumer Goods Limited Logo

•    This is the 2nd rights issue (RI) from SMCGL within a year.
•    The first RI was in November 2021 at a par value for Rs. 9.83 cr.
•    Sudden boost in the top and bottom lines for FY22 raises eyebrows.
•    Counter is well operated by vested interest to lure investors for RI.
•    Based on its current financial data, RI is fully priced.

ISSUE DETAILS:
To part finance its needs for adjustment of unsecured loans from promoters (Rs. 10.00 cr.), working capital (Rs. 24.97 cr.) and general corporate purposes (Rs. 8.91 cr.), SMCGL is coming out with the right issue (RI) of 98296996 equity shares of Rs. 2 each at a fixed price of Rs. 4.5 per share to mobilize Rs. 44.23 cr. The company is issuing RI in the ratio of 1 share against 1 share held by the eligible stakeholders as of the record date i.e. July 23, 2022. The issue opens for subscription on August 10, 2022, and will close on August 25, 2022. The full amount is payable on the application. Post allotment, shares will be listed on BSE. The company is spending Rs. 0.35 cr. for this RI process. 

The issue is solely lead managed by Turnaround Corporate Advisors Pvt. Ltd. and Alankit Assignments Ltd. is the registrar to the issue.

This is the second rights issue from SMCGL within a year. Its last RI was in November 2021 in the ratio of 1 for 1 at a par value for Rs. 9.83 cr. 

Post RI, SMCGL's current paid-up equity capital of Rs. 9.83 cr. will stand enhanced to Rs. 19.66 cr. Based on the RI pricing, the company is looking for a market cap of Rs. 88.47 cr.

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE:
On the financial performance front, for the last three fiscals, SMCGL has posted turnover/net profits of Rs. 4.06 cr. / Rs. - (0.20) cr. (FY20), Rs. 5.24 cr. / Rs. 0.03 cr. (FY21) and Rs. 55.70 cr. / Rs. 2.75 cr. (FY22). The quantum jump in FY22 performance raises eyebrows.

As per BSE filing data, the company has earned a net profit of Rs. 1.35 cr. on a turnover of Rs. 23.18 cr. for Q1 of FY23. 

DIVIDEND POLICY:
The company has not paid any dividends since its incorporation. It will adopt a prudent dividend policy post listing of RI, based on its financial performance and future prospects. 

SCRIP PERFORMANCE: BASED ON BSE WEBSITE DATA: SCRIP CODE: 523558:
The scrip last closed on cum-right basis at Rs. 27 on July 20, 2022, and opened on an ex-right basis at Rs. 17.15 on July 21, 2022. Since then it has marked a high/low of Rs. 19.30 / Rs. 15.10. The scrip last closed at Rs. 19.10 as of August 05, 2022. Based on this quote, its post-RI market cap stands at Rs. 375.49 cr. The scrip has posted the last 52 weeks high/low of Rs. 22.45 / Rs. 2.83 (post adjustment of Ex-RI impact). Promoters holding is around 66.67% for the last three quarters. The counter is being rigged by vested interest to lure investors for its second RI with a 225% higher premium than the first RI. 


Conclusion / Investment Strategy

The company is coming with its second RI within a year. It has posted good results for FY22 and also for Q1 of FY23, but the asking price is making it fully priced based on its financial performance so far. According to market circles, the counter is rigged to lure investors to this RI. Investors may consider parking of funds with a short to medium term perspective.

"Post RI, SMCGL's current paid-up equity capital of Rs. 9.83 cr. will stand enhanced to Rs. 19.66 cr. Based on the RI pricing, the company is looking for a market cap of Rs. 88.47 cr."

well 19.66 was after NOV 2021 RI..
so 2022 RI will increase the Capital more naa?
Kindly confirm about it...

And if the ratio is 1:1 then the capital should get double... but the capital to raise is mentioned as 44cr+ ... maybe i am missing something...
