Focus Suits Solutions & Services Ltd. (Focus) is a qualitative fieldwork agency having its presence across 18 major countries in Asia, Middle East and Latin America. Company’s team of project managers handle projects execution of different fieldwork across various industries like healthcare, automobiles, IT & Telecom, FMCG, Retail etc. Majestic Market Research Support Services Ltd. is the main promoter of the company. Focus is a member of ESOMAR and CASRO. Major portion of company’s revenues comes from overseas markets.
To part finance its investment plans in subsidiaries POPRSPL and GENPOP, working capital and general corpus fund needs, Focus is coming out with a maiden IPO of 3608000 equity shares of Rs. 10 each at a fixed price of Rs. 18 per share to mobilize Rs. 6.49 crore. Issue opens for subscription on 30.01.18 and will close on 01.02.18. Minimum application is to be made for 8000 shares and in multiples thereon, thereafter. Post allotment, shares will be listed on BSE SME. Issue constitutes 27.03% of the post issue paid up capital of the company. Average cost of acquisition of shares by the promoters is Rs. 19.10 per share. Issue is solely lead managed by Pantomath Capital Advisors Pvt. Ltd. and Bigshare Services Pvt. Ltd. is the registrar to the issue. Having issued initial equity at par, it raised further equity in a price range of Rs. 15 to Rs. 345 between August 2016 and August 2017. It has also issued bonus shares in the ratio of 16 for1 in April 2017. Post issue its current paid up equity capital of Rs. 9.74 crore will stand enhanced to Rs. 13.35 crore.
On performance front, Focus has (on a consolidated basis) posted revenue of Rs. 15.42 crore with a net profit of Rs. 1.29 crore for FY17. For first four months ended on 31.07.17 it has reported net profit of Rs. 0.56 crore on total revenue of Rs. 5.78 crore. Surprisingly, it has preferred to give details of first four months working instead of H1. For FY17 it has posted an EPS of Rs. 5.00 and RoNW of 28.37% on an equity base of Rs. 0.15 crore. If we annualize latest earnings and attribute it on fully diluted equity post issue then asking price is at a P/E of around 14. Issue is priced at a P/BV of 1.06 based on its NAV of Rs. 16.88 as on 31.07.17 and at a P/BV of 1.05 on the basis of post issue NAV of Rs. 17.17. As per offer document, MRSS is the listed peer for this company. MRSS is trading at a P/E of around 36 (as on 16.11.17). MRSS has given handsome rewards since listing of its IPO and is the major stakeholder. On a standalone basis Focus has posted revenue/net profits of Rs. 6.02 cr. / Rs. 0.14 cr. (FY15), Rs. 7.51 cr. / Rs. 0.65 cr. (FY16), Rs. 9.51 cr. / Rs. 0.98 cr. (FY17). For first four months of the current fiscal it has reported net profit of Rs. 0.46 cr. on revenue of Rs. 3.96 cr.
On merchant banker’s front, this is the 58th mandate from its stable in last three fiscals. Out of last 10 listings, 1 opened around par and the rest with premiums ranging from 1% to 130% on the day of listing. 130% rewards are from the only main board IPO of this merchant banker i.e. Astron Paper.
Based on realigned business strategy reflected in consolidated working that is available only for past sixteen months, future prospects appears bright. Investment may be considered for long term.
