jump in GMP got me interested to dig deeper. here is my analysis. i dont think this one worth the risk to buy.
#Owais #SME #
• Activity:
○ The company is engaged in the manufacturing of the following products;
1. Manganese Oxide (MNO), 2. MC Ferro Manganese, 3. Manufacturing of Wood Charcoal, 4. Processing of Minerals such as Ferro Alloy, Quartz and Manganese Ore.
• Manganese Oxide is used in fertilizer industry; Manganese Ore is used in manufacturing of Ferro Manganese, Silico Manganese, Manganese Oxide, Batteries and other Ferro products. Processed Quartz is being used hotel industry, Ferro Alloys industry, tiles & ceramic industry, glass industry and industry of interiors & furniture
• Market & Customers
○ major products are been supplied to the state of Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra and Gujrat
○ Our top 10 customers accounted for approximately 95.99% of our revenue from operations in period ended on December 31, 2023
○ As of December 31 2023, our Company’s Order Book was ₹ 16.72 Cr
Promoters
• Mr. Saiyyed Owais Ali, Mr. Saiyyed Murtuza Ali and Mr. Sayyad Akhtar Ali.
• 4 crs+ of litigation + 4 criminal cases
• Bad things
○ Cr Issue expenses
○ No EPFO entry found for Owais Metals but for Owais Ali Overseas - 11 Emp
○ Negative operative cashflow
○ 29 Cr trade recieveables against Rev
○ PE of 11 if we assume annualized EPS based on Dec 23 data, with GMP of 140 rs PE goes to ~30 and with a poor order book of 16.72 cr there is no upside upon listing
○ IMFA as a competitor look far more attractive compared to Owais
○ One of the key customer is their own firm SMO Ferro Alloys
○ Sector is of commodity one with none of the customer a listed entity
○ Cap utilization of existing facility seems enough to handle order book so not able to under IPO proceeds towards new facility
• Good things
○ Promoter seems well connected and rich
○ Margin in Dec 31 seems decent if it can be sustained
