RISK FACTORS
⇒ Competitive business environment
⇒ Highly dependent on monsoon
⇒ Rely on third party and farmers for seed production
⇒ Agrochemical business is subject to high regulations which may be subject to increased compliance costs.
⇒Seasonal and cyclical nature of agricultural industry.
⇒ Political instability, resulting from a change in government or in economic and fiscal policies.
⇒ Shutdown or significant disruption at any of manufacturing facilities.
⇒ Operations and revenues are primarily concentrated in the southern regions of India, the inability to retain and grow business in these regions may effect adversely.
INDUSTRY OVERVIEW
Global cereal production is estimated to grow by around 1% p.a. with Per capita cereal food consumption expected to rise to 164 kg/person by 2023. Moreover, production of foodgrains is to grow to ~305 million tonnes by 2023. In terms of Rice, expected to be the major contributor to the growth with production levels of 124 million tones over the same period and will be followed by wheat (112 million tonnes), coarse grain (46 million tonnes) and pulses (23 million tonnes).
Production growth over the period will be encouraged by rise in MSPs for rice and wheat which have witnessed a robust increase in the past and is expected to be increased in similar lines MSPs for the major food grains which has been increased at a CAGR of 6- 11% over the last eight years. This rise will help to compensate for the rising cost of production as well as to incentivize farmers to increase the production as well as the productivity.
Government Focus on the Sector
GoI's intent has been to double the farmer's income by the year 2022. In the current Union budget for FY2020, the government announced several initiatives to augment the farmer incomes and also alleviate the agri-stress currently prevalent. It has also been working towards structural reforms like issuance and acceptance of soil health cards, improving irrigation facilities etc.
⇒ GoI announced a income support scheme under PM-KISAN for small and marginal farmers to receive Rs. 6,000 p.a. expected to aid sales of farm inputs like agrochemicals, seeds, fertilisers etc.
⇒ Enhanced the allocation for the Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojna (PMFBY) by Rs. 1000 crore taking the total to Rs. 14,000 crore
⇒ Promoting improvement in the irrigation facilities through the Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchayi Yojna (PM-KSY) to reduce the reliance on monsoon rains and reduce agro-climatic risks and has allocated Rs. 9,516 crore for the scheme. So far, the scheme has covered 37.49 lakh hectares of land under micro-irrigation projects.
⇒ Announced a 2% p.a. interest subvention scheme for the farmers facing natural calamities. Additionally, another 3% p.a. interest subvention has been offered to such farmers who make timely repayment of their loans will aid reduction in the interest burden on the farmers and also aid income of farmers with lower outflow
VALUATION
KPR operations and revenues are primarily concentrated in the southern regions of India, mainly in Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and Karnataka. Further, all of the manufacturing facilities are located in southern India and hence geographically concentrated. To increase footprints, it intends to market products in other parts of India, namely, Uttar Pradesh, Himachal Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and West Bengal. Also, is looking forward to penetrate into new locations and strengthen its reach in the present areas of operations. However, all the stated expansions would be time taking.
However, company's Revenue & PAT has remained flat over the last 5 years while margins were marginally well. Not only the past performance, the future growth outlook is also not much clear and can be said to be blur. Already around Rs 470cr of borrowings are standing on the books. From IPO proceeds also this figure is not expected to come down substantially as only Rs 30 cr been set aside & major portion of Rs120cr is for the working capital requirement.
On the upper price band of Rs 61, the stock would trade at P/E of 17.60x for FY18 earnings, which is reasonably priced. Therefore, major shoot up in the stock is not expected. We recommend to AVOID the IPO.
