Here are some of the key takeaways from the financials of the company for the last 3 years.
- Sales growth and profit growth have picked up momentum only in the latest year, so a few more quarters would be essential to see if this can really survive. However, the business model of B2B furniture is surely interesting.
- The net margins are above 10% in the latest year but rather erratic in the previous year. However, that should stabilize and plus the company has the added advantage of have very positive growth in the ROE in the last 2 years.
- Due to being a capital intensive and inventory intensive business, the asset turnover ratio or the asset sweating ratio has been relatively low around the 0.70 mark. That could raise concerns when it comes to sustaining valuations at a future date.
With a latest year EPS of ₹6.80 per share and weighted average EPS of 3 years of ₹3.80, the IPO valuation looks to be between 10 times and 15 times earnings, depending on which EPS measure you use. That is not too high for the segment, especially as it proposes to scale up through a scalable omnichannel model. A lot will depend on how it fends off competition from the large institutional business models with deeper pockets. That will be the challenge.
