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

  • The revenues have grown at a robust pace in the last 2 years and in the latest year FY23, the total sales more than doubled over FY21. More importantly, this has been accompanied by growth in the net profit levels and net profit margins (PAT margins).
     
  • While net margins of the company are still relatively low at 5.99%, it has built up traction in the last 3 years. The return on equity (ROE) has grown sharply to 50.33% in FY23, while the return on assets (ROA) is robust at 9.92% in FY23.
     
  • The asset turnover ratio or the sweating ratio has been healthy at 1.69X and that is understandable considering the capital intensity of the business. However, this sweating ratio also gets supported by the robust levels of return on assets (ROA).

 

The company has latest year EPS of ₹8.50 and we have not included the weighted  average EPS, since the previous year data is not exactly comparable. The latest year earnings are being discounted by the IPO price of ₹235 per share at 27-28 times P/E ratio. One has to look at the P/E ratio from two perspectives. Since the company is yet to announce the FY24 results, we can use available data to extrapolate. The 11-month EPS for FY24 stands at ₹16.67 per share and when extrapolated to full-year EPS of ₹18.19, it translates into a more reasonable P/E ratio of 12-13 times earnings.

In addition, Rulka Electricals Ltd also brings some intangible advantages to the table like capabilities in execution in stringent timelines, its diverse value proposition, the full value chain offering etc. All these factors make the story compelling, if we consider the extrapolated earnings and P/E ratio of the company. Investors must appreciate that there may not be much on the table right now, but a better story could emanate once the numbers of the next few quarters start to flow in.
