Here are some of the key takeaways from the financials of the company for the last 3 years.

  • The revenues have grown at a steady pace in the last 2 years and hence the latest year revenue data shows a secular growth trend, which is positive. Overall growth over last two years is more than 60%. The PAT margins are relatively low, but the growth has been sharp in the latest year in PAT margins.
     
  • While net margins of the company have only picked up steam in the latest year, it is more because the costs have been front-ended. However, the ROE and return on assets in the latest year are attractive and also stable at 15.52% and 7.51% respectively.
     
  • The asset turnover ratio or the sweating ratio has been above 1.10X and that is a good sign that sales have picked up to cover the asset outlays. With scale, the impact should be visible on profits too. However, with ROA attractive, the higher asset turnover ratio is not only sustainable, but also gets magnified.

 

The company has latest year EPS of ₹11.86 and even through previous data may not really be comparable, the weighted average EPS of last 3 years stand at ₹9.12. The latest year earnings are being discounted by the IPO price of ₹129 per share at 10-11times P/E ratio. One has to look at the P/E ratio from two standpoints. Firstly, the half year EPS for FY24 is much higher at ₹6.37, which makes the valuations look more reasonable if the EPS is annualized and extrapolated. However, the real story is that the story becomes a lot more enticing once the economies of scale start to reflect on the profit numbers. The company has some inherent advantages like a strong marketing and distribution network, a scalable business model and a diversified customer base to avoid the risk of cyclicality. The valuations do leave something on the table for investors. However, investors must be prepared for a higher level of risk and also take a longer term perspective of the investment in this IPO of Deem Roll Tech Ltd.
