Here are some of the key takeaways from the financials of the company for the last 3 years.
- The revenues have growing at a rapid rate in the last 2 years. In fact, the sales revenues are up more than 3.5 times in the last 2 years. The PAT margins have sharply improved in the last 2 years from 0.87% to 5.28% and this largely on economies of scale.
- While net margins of the company moderate to robust, the return on equity (ROE) at 23.51% and the return on assets (ROA) at 5.41% in the latest year are very attractive and robust. That is more due to the rapid growth in profits in the last 2 years
- The asset turnover ratio or the sweating ratio has been just above 1X in the latest year, which is good. In addition, when you add the ROA at 5.41%, the future impact on the ROE could be quite substantial; especially since sales is still on a growth path.
The company has latest year EPS of ₹5.63 and even though previous data may not really be comparable, the weighted average EPS of last 3 years stand at ₹5.11. The latest year earnings are being discounted by the IPO price of ₹77 per share at 13.68 times P/E ratio. However, if we annualize the 5-month EPS of ₹4.24 for FY24, we are looking at relatively more reasonable valuations based on forward earnings numbers. The company is having an established presence in the industry for over 30 years and that is a distinct advantage in an industry where past relationships matter a lot. It is also poised to benefit largely from the flow of defence orders and offers IPO investors a good vehicle to bet on defence at reasonable valuations at this juncture.
