ISSUE DETAILS/CAPITAL HISTORY:
To part finance its needs for working capital (Rs. 9.43 cr.) and general corporate purposes (Rs. 2.70 cr.), FSL is coming out with a maiden IPO of 3648000 equity shares of Rs. 10 each at a fixed price of Rs. 37 per share to mobilize Rs. 13.50 cr. The issue opens for subscription on May 30, 2022, and will close on June 02, 2022. Minimum application is to be made for 3000 shares and in multiples thereon, thereafter. Post allotment, shares will be listed on NSE SME Emerge. The issue constitutes 26.53% of the post issue paid-up capital of the company. FSL is spending Rs. 1.37 cr. for this IPO process.
The issue is solely lead managed by Shreni Shares Pvt. Ltd. and Bigshare Services Pvt. Ltd. is the registrar to the issue. Shreni Shares Pvt. Ltd. is also the market maker for this company.
After issuing initial equity at par, the company issued further equity at Rs. 390.01 per share in September 2007 and has also issued bonus shares in the ratio of 39 for 1 in March 2022. The average cost of acquisition of shares by the promoters is Rs. 0.25 per share.
Post-IPO, FSL's current paid-up equity capital of Rs. 10.10 cr. will stand enhanced to Rs. 13.75 cr. Based on the IPO pricing, the company is looking for a market cap of Rs. 50.88 cr.
FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE:
On the financial performance front, for the last three fiscals, FSL has posted a turnover/net profit of Rs. 22.80 cr. / Rs. 3.15 cr. (FY20), Rs. 26.21 cr. / Rs. 3.45 cr. (FY21) and Rs. 26.87 cr. / Rs. 4.57 cr. (FY22). While it's top-line remained almost static for the last two fiscals, it has posted improved margins.
For the last three fiscals, the company has reported an average EPS of Rs. 3.92 and an average RoNW of 34.12%. The issue is priced at a P/BV of 2.51 based on its NAV of Rs. 14.73 as of March 31, 2022, and at a P/BV of 1.79 based on its post-IPO NAV of Rs. 20.64 per share.
If we attribute FY22 earnings to the fully diluted post IPO equity capital base, then the asking price is at a P/E of 11.15. Thus the issue appears fully priced.
COMPARISON WITH LISTED PEERS:
As per offer documents, FSL has no listed peers to compare with.
DIVIDEND POLICY:
FSL has not declared any dividend since incorporation. It will adopt a prudent dividend policy post listing based on its financial performance and future prospects.
MERCHANT BANKER'S TRACK RECORDS:
This is the 10th mandate from Shreni Shares in the last three fiscals (including the ongoing one). Out of the last 9 listings, 1 opened at par and the rest with premiums ranging from 0.06% to 19.05% on the day of listings.
