Bharti Infratel IPO - Analysis

December 10, 2012 0
Bharti Infratel IPO - Analysis
Bharti Infratel is entering the capital markets with an IPO of 18.89 crore equity shares of Rs.10 each, comprising of an offer for sale of 4.27 crore shares by 4 PE investors and balance shares consisting of fresh issue. The IPO would open for subscription from December 11, 2012 and would close for subscription for QIB investors on December 13, 2012 and for other investors on December 14, 2012.

The shares are offered in a price band of Rs.210/- to Rs.240/- per equity share. The Retail Investors and eligible employees would be entitled to a discount of Rs.10/- per share

Company Profile:

Bharti Infratel is one of the world's largest telecom tower infrastructure providers which deploys, owns and manages telecom towers and communication structures for all wireless operators. The business of Bharti Infratel and Indus is to acquire, build, own and operate tower and related infrastructure.

Bharti Infratel and Indus currently provide access to their towers primarily to wireless telecommunications service providers. Bharti Infratel's and Indus's three largest customers are Bharti Airtel (together with Bharti Hexacom), Vodafone India and Idea Cellular. They are the three leading wireless telecommunications service providers in India by wireless revenue. Bharti Infratel, having presence in all 22 telecom circle in India, enjoys 23% market share in terms of tenancies, as of March 2012. The promoter of the company is Bharti Airtel


IPO Rating:
CRISIL has assigned a CRISIL IPO Grade "4/5" (pronounced "four on five") to the proposed initial public offer (IPO) of Bharti Infratel Ltd (Bharti Infratel). This grade indicates that the fundamentals of the IPO are ‘above average’ relative to the other listed equity securities in India. CRISIL assigns IPO grading on a scale of IPO Grade 5 to IPO Grade 1, with IPO Grade 5 indicating strong fundamentals and IPO Grade 1 indicating poor fundamentals. According to the grading document from CRISIL, the assigned grade also reflects the strong and stable operating cash flows resulting from long-term contracts.

The company’s robust back-end processes, which ensure higher reliability of network uptime for its clients, support the grade. However, low return on capital employed (RoCE) is a concern. Since tower infrastructure is a business with high operating leverage, RoCE is expected to improve in line with an increase in the tenancy ratio albeit from a lower base. The grade is not an opinion on whether the issue price is appropriate in relation to the issue fundamentals. The grade is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold the graded instrument, or a comment on the graded instrument’s future market price or its suitability for a particular investor.


Key Strengths:
  • The company stands to gain from the increase in penetration of voice and data services, which is expected to drive the telecom companies' demand for base transceiver stations (BTS) and additional towers.
  • Bharti Infratel and Indus Towers will benefit from any expansion of the network by India’s leading telcos - Bharti Airtel, Vodafone and Idea Cellular Ltd - as they are the preferred players for passive infrastructure requirements of the three telcos. 
  • Large-scale operations, first-mover advantage and pool sharing arrangement among the top three telcos have resulted in better-than-industry tenancy ratio for Bharti Infratel. It is expected to improve further leading to high operating leverage and improvement in profitability

Risks and Concerns:
  • Tower infrastructure is a business with high operating leverage. Low asset turnover and minimal use of leverage in a capital intensive industry have resulted in low return on equity (RoE) for Bharti Infratel over the past three years, which can increase if the leverage is corrected
  • The overcapacity in the industry is expected to limit the demand for rollout of new towers. Further, regulatory changes and the resultant uncertainty pose a risk to telecom players as their network rollout plans could be hampered.

Concluding Remarks:

The company has sound operating model in place. At the upper band of Price Band of Rs. 210 to Rs. 240 per share, shares are being issued at a PE that is undoubtedly expensive. Such higher price may be justified considering the long term story of the company, but investors may want to exercise caution before jumping into the ship, particularly if they are seeking listing gains, which seem unlikely

PC Jeweller IPO - Indian IPO Blog Analysis

December 09, 2012 0
PC Jeweller IPO - Indian IPO Blog Analysis
PC Jewellers (PCJ) is coming out with an initial public offering (IPO) of 4.51 crore equity shares with a Face Value of Rs.10 each (including employee reservation of 3.6 Lakh shares). The shares will be offered in a price band of Rs.125/- to Rs.135/- per equity share. The Issue will remain open between December 10, 2012 and December 12, 2012. Retail Investors and Employees of the company will be offered a discount of Rs.5/- per equity share


Company Profile and Promoters:

PC Jeweller Ltd is an established jewellery retailer in North India. Company's operations include the manufacture, retail and wholesale of jewellery. PCJ offers a wide range of products including gold jewellery, diamond jewellery and other jewellery including silver articles. The company provides 100% Hallmarked jewellery and Certified Diamond jewellery. PC Jeweller have 30 showrooms under the "PC Jeweller" brand located across 23 cities in north and central India. Company is planning to expand their showroom network across India by adding 20 more in next two years, including in southern and western parts of India. They have manufacturing facilities at 5 locations. The company is promoted by Balram Garg and Padam Chand Gupta


IPO Rating:

CRISIL has assigned a CRISIL IPO Grade "3/5" (pronounced "three on five") to the proposed initial public offer (IPO) of PC Jeweller Ltd (PCJ). This grade indicates that the fundamentals of the IPO are ‘average’ relative to the other listed equity securities in India. CRISIL assigns IPO grading on a scale of IPO Grade 5 to IPO Grade 1, with IPO Grade 5 indicating strong fundamentals and IPO Grade 1 indicating poor fundamentals. However, this grade is not an opinion on whether the issue price is appropriate in relation to the issue fundamentals. The grade is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold the graded instrument, or a comment on the graded instrument’s future market price or its suitability for a particular investor

According to the grading report, the assigned grade reflects its seven-year-old presence and the ensuing strong reputation in an industry quintessentially benefited by the country’s obsession for gold. Strong brand recall, successful branch expansion (from one to 30 showrooms in the past seven years) and stellar increase in gold prices have added shine to PCJ’s top line, which has grown at a three-year CAGR of 69%.

However, competition in the jewellery retailing market - likely to intensify following planned expansions by regional/traditional players - poses a significant risk



Key Strengths:
  • Compared with other gold jewellery players, PCJ’s revenue mix leans towards higher-margin diamond jewellery
  • The organised players account for approximately 16-18% share (including the regional players) of the Indian jewellery industry. The low penetration presents a good growth opportunity for a player like PCJ on account of the rising disposable incomes, which are likely to fuel the growth of jewellery consumption in the country
  • The operating profit grew at a CAGR of 96.3% in the last 4-5 years from around Rs.20 crore in FY2008 to Rs.330 crore in FY2012. The operating profit margin of the company at approximately 11%, is respectable enough when compared with peers. The Net Profit Margin stands at around 7.7% which also is one of highest amongst peers

Risks:
  • The company generates a major portion of its domestic sales from its showrooms in Delhi 
  • PCJ’s plans to add 20 showrooms by FY14 across India should mitigate the risk of regional concentration but the opening of new stores in a competitive market is likely to put pressure on profitability due to higher marketing expenses and working capital requirement. 
  • Moreover, the compensation structure for key management personnel appears low, which can lead to attrition.
  • Uncertain macro environment may put pressure on sales. The jewellery segment is discretionary in nature and is a luxury item. The current uncertain macro economic environment may drag on the company’s performance for the near term.

Remarks:

The share offered at roughly 7-8 times PE multiple, which is neighter generous nor blown out of proportions. Though participating in the IPO may be apt, however, investors may not be willing to go full throttle on the IPO

New IPO Allotment Process explained

December 06, 2012 0
New IPO Allotment Process explained
SEBI has come out with new allotment process for IPOs, which will incorporate a mechanism. Here's an attempt to understand the new mechanism of IPO allotment through an illustration:

For our exercise, let us assume the total number of specified securities (read equity shares) on offer to be 1 crore specified securities. Let's say these securities are on offer at Rs.600/- a share. Thus, specified securities on offer for Retail Individual Investors category would translate to 35,00,000 specified securities. Let's add that the issuer decides to fix the minimum application / bid size as 20 specified securities (falling within the range of Rs. 10,000 - Rs. 15,000). Application can therefore, be made for a minimum of 20 specified securities and in multiples thereof.

Let's further assume that the issue is over-subscribed 2.5 times whereas the Retail Individual Investors’ category is oversubscribed 4 times. Assume that a total of 100,000 Retail Individual Investors have applied in the issue, in varying number of bid lots i.e. between 1 – 16 bid lots, based on the maximum application size of upto Rs. 2,00,000 (i.e. Bid Lot 1 is for 20 shares, Bid Lot 2 for 40 shares, Bid Lot 3 for 60 shares and so on till Bid Lot 16 which will translate to 320 shares)

Out of the 100,000 Retail Individual Investors, let's say there are five retail individual investors A, B, C, D and E who have applied as follows:
  • A has applied for 320 specified securities
  • B has applied for 220 specified securities
  • C has applied for 120 specified securities
  • D has applied for 60 specified securities and 
  • E has applied for 20 specified securities
Now, as per allotment procedure, the allotment to retail individual investors shall not be less than the minimum bid lot, subject to availability of shares, and the remaining available shares, if any, shall be allotted on a proportionate basis

The actual entitlement for allotment, thus, shall be as follows:


Okay. Now, in the above example, we assumed an overall over-subscription of 2.5 times and retail over-subscription of 4 times. But what happens if subscription if higher? Let's find out:

This time around, let's keep total no. of specified securities on offer (at Rs. 600 per share) unchanged at 1 crore specified securities. Specified securities on offer for Retail Individual Investors’ category therefore would be again: 35 lakh specified securities. Issuer decides to fix the minimum application / bid size as 20 specified securities (falling within the range of Rs. 10,000 - Rs. 15,000). Application can be made for a minimum of 20 specified securities and in multiples thereof

Let's now assume the issue is over subscribed 7 times whereas the Retail Individual Investors’ category is over subscribed 9.37 times.

Assume that a total of 200,000 Retail Individual Investors have applied in the issue, in varying number of bid lots i.e. between 1 – 16 bid lots (i.e. 16th lot at Rs.192,000 since the maximum application size of upto Rs.2,00,000)

Again, as per allotment procedure, the allotment to retail individual investors shall not be less than the minimum bid lot, subject to availability of shares, and the remaining available shares, if any, shall be allotted on a proportionate basis

Now since the total number of shares on offer to retail individual investors is 35,00,000 and the minimum bid lot is 20 shares, the maximum no. of investors who can be allotted this minimum bid
lot will be 1,75,000.

In other words,
  • 1,75,000 Retail Investors will get the Minimum Bid Lot and  
  • Remaining 25,000 retail applicants will not get allotment

The allotment in this case will be as follows:

  • The Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) margin for the half-year ended September is 69%, comparing very well to listed peers with ICRA at 32.9% and CRISIL at 31.7%. CARE's Return on Equity also was 30.7% in FY12, clearly better than ICRAs 16%, though lower than CRISIL's 42%
  • The Company has a low-cost back-office in Ahmedabad, which helps it restrict its employee costs to less than 25% of its sales, compared with nearly 50% as in the case of CRISIL and ICRA
  • If an estimated Rs.100 Crore of Net Profit for FY 2013, translating to EPS of about Rs.35. Thus, the shares under IPO are offered in a relatively attractive prospective PE of about 20-22 times

Significant Risks:
  • For the year ended March, 86.4% of its revenue came from ratings. Thus, the mainstream revenue come from concentrated pocket. If banks decide to rate their loans internally, which the RBI may allow them to do so in future, it may impact CARE Ratings significantly
  • The company is planning to emulate its listed peers by expanding and diversifying its business into research wings, which may take time to materialize

Overall Comments:
The strengths of the company clearly outweigh the risks involved. The quality of financials coupled with relatively attractive pricing offers a very strong reason to go for the IPO

RINL deferment sends out wrong signals from Government

RINL deferment sends out wrong signals from Government
The Government has once again gone down the wrong lane after taking the initial step. The IPO of Rastriya Ispat Nigam Limited (RINL) which was earlier expected to open from October 15, 2012 has been postponed for the third time now. Giving its reasoning for the deferral, the steel ministry said, "We will not sell RINL below book value". Currently, the book value of the PSU firm is pegged at Rs 22.52 a share. Sources close to the development said merchant bankers UBS Securities and Deutsche Equities (India) have proposed Rs 15-17 as the price band. In a statement to the media, the Government said press conference for the announcement has been postponed due to “unavoidable circumstances”

RINL is the second largest state-owned steel maker in the country producing three million tonnes per annum (mtpa) at its lone facility at Visakhapatnam. The capacity is being raised to 6.3 mtpa in the current fiscal. The government plans to sell 10 per cent of its stake. The issue was previously deferred twice since the filing of the draft prospectus with market regulator Sebi on May 18 due to reasons as varied as volatile market conditions and fire at the company's Vizag steel-making facility.

While the conditions of the market may not be perfectly ripe for IPOs, but deferring IPOs repeatedly the way the Government is doing, may only send out wrong signals. The department of heavy industries is still also not on board for the BHEL OFS and it is very likely that this may be deferred as well. Still more, the finance ministry is also likely to bring the National Fertiliser, RCF, EIL issues for cabinet approval in a bid to meet the Rs 30,000 crore divestment target. With such ambitions of divestment targets, it is only right to say that the Government should realize that no lunch is free and if it were to successfully clear IPOs, pricing issues attractively may be the only way out

CRISIL: Higher IPO graded companies enjoy better valuation

CRISIL: Higher IPO graded companies enjoy better valuation
Companies with higher IPO grades command superior valuation driven by stronger fundamentals, a study by Crisil shows.

"For the period under review (May 2007 - June 2012), these companies weathered the business cycles (global meltdown in 2008-2009, followed by a slowdown during 2011-2012) better on the back of robust business fundamentals, superior management strength and good governance practices," it said.

Since all these parameters are taken into account in the IPO grading process, it said, this finding is a reflection of the effectiveness of the grading methodology.

Companies with an IPO grade of 5/5 (indicating strong fundamentals relative to other listed securities in India) enjoyed a higher P/B than companies with IPO grades of 1/5 and 2/5, respectively, it said.

SEBI IPO Reforms: Price Band to be announced early

The market regulator SEBI has said that the company issuing IPOs must announce the price band of the issue at least five working days before the issue opens

Currently, the price band could be announced two working days before the IPO opened. This often left very less time in the hands of investor to analyse and arrive at an informed decision. The move by SEBI is aimed at enabling the investor to take an informed call on whether the price is fair and improve the quality of investor decision making

The price band is the price range within which the company will offer the shares under the IPO. Under the regulations, the spread or the difference between the floor and the cap of the price band cannot be more than 20%. In other words, it means that the cap should not be more than 120% of the floor price

SEBI IPO Reforms: e-IPOs

SEBI IPO Reforms: e-IPOs
The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has introduced a number of sweeping changes by way of reforms that promise to revive primary markets and boost investor interest. Here's an insight into e-IPOs


Currently, IPOs are marketed through merchant bankers or syndicate members. Applications can be made only through these syndicate members. An ASBA Investor can visit an ASBA Bank branch and deposit IPO application under the current system.

To enhance retail participation in IPOs, SEBI plans to introduce electronic IPOs by utilizing broker terminal networks. The idea under e-IPO is to enable every single terminal of every registered broker of BSE and NSE to be able to accept application.

“We are talking to the RBI and Indian Banks’ Association to make ASBA available in all bank branches under the core banking system,” U. K. Sinha, Chairman, SEBI has said. Moreover, Brokers will be remunerated by issuer companies for using this mode

If gone as planned, electronic IPOs or e-IPOs can prove to be a real boon particularly in terms of accessibility as it has the potential take IPOs even to smaller towns and cities - wherever a terminal exists. Plus, if ASBA is made compulsory for all branches, then it can further enhance the reach of IPOs since in such case, the investor will only have to walk in to the nearest bank branch and deposit his IPO application

SEBI IPO Reforms: Safety net under consideration

SEBI IPO Reforms: Safety net under consideration
The Securities Exchange Board of India (SEBI) had earlier announced a list of reforms aimed at boosting primary market, the mutual fund industry and retail participation in the market. Of all the items on the agenda, the market regulator has not yet approved the issue of a safety net for retail participants in an IPO.

Under a safety net mechanism, certain portion of the investment made by retail shareholders could be guaranteed for a fixed period against market volatility. This concept was introduced to encourage more retail participation on initial public offers, especially at a time when investment sentiment is low in the country.

As per the proposed mechanism, a certain portion of the investment made by retail shareholders in the IPOs could be guaranteed for a fixed period, which could of six months, even if the shares' value plunge below the IPO allotment price during this time.

 This 'safety net' mechanism is being considered only for the small retail investors, who would be compensated by the promoters and other entities selling shares through IPOs in the event of the company's shares plunging below a certain threshold limit within six months of listing or the time frame set by Sebi,


Chairman UK Sinha today said that this concept required more consultation, and has therefore invited the public to voice their views on the idea of a safety net.

SEBI expected to introduce more reforms: FM
Finance Minister P Chidambaram has said regulator SEBI is expected to announce fresh market reform measures next month

Expressing satisfaction over wide-ranging reforms announced by Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) yesterday for mutual funds and other segments, Chidambaram said he has requested SEBI Chairman U K Sinha to look into a number of other suggestions for the benefit of investors.

'The examination by the Government and Sebi is likely to be completed in the next two weeks. I have requested Sebi Chairman to schedule another meeting of the (Sebi) Board in early September when some more decisions can be taken on the suggestions that are under examination,' he said.

The Finance Minister said the measures announced by SEBI yesterday 'will stimulate financial savings among households as well as give a fillip to the mutual fund industry. More and more households should be encouraged to save in financial instruments rather than in gold'.

In wide-ranging changes to its various regulations, SEBI made it easier and more cost effective to invest and raise funds through IPOs, while allowing the Mutual Funds ( MFs) flexibility in using their fund expense charges and proposing a national mutual fund policy.

Besides, SEBI has also made provisions for retail investors getting an assured minimum lot of shares in IPOs (Initial Public Offers) and asked the companies to announce their price band at least five days in advance of the issue

SEBI has been quite active, of late, as far as the reforms in primary market is concerned and e-IPOs is one more step in that direction. It is hoped that the steps would revive the poor interest of investors in the Indian primary markets

Tribhovandas Bhimji Zaveri IPO - Detailed Insight

April 22, 2012 0
Tribhovandas Bhimji Zaveri IPO - Detailed Insight
Tribhovandas Bhimji Zaveri Ltd., an Indian top jewellery retailer, is entering the capital markets with an IPO of 16,666,667 Equity Shares of Rs.10/- each, which would remain open for subscription between April 24, 2012 and April 26, 2012. Is the jewellery retailer worth the glitter? Let's try to find out:

The Price Band for the IPO is Rs.120/- to Rs.126/- per equity share. Correspondingly, the bid lot would be 45 Equity Shares and in multiples thereof.

The objects of Tribhovandas Bhimji Zaveri Ltd. IPO are:
1. To finance the establishment of new showrooms;
2. To finance incremental working capital requirements;


IPO Rating:
CRISIL has assigned an IPO Grade 3 to Tribhovandas Bhimji Zaveri Ltd (TBZ) IPO. This means as per CRISIL, company has 'Average Fundamentals'. CRISIL assigns IPO grading on a scale of IPO Grade 5 to IPO Grade 1, with IPO Grade 5 indicating strong fundamentals and IPO Grade 1 indicating poor fundamentals. Click here to read more on TBZ IPO - CRISIL Rating


Significant Risks involved in the issue:
1. There are criminal proceedings pending against two of the company's independent Directors
2. The objects of the Issue includes the financing of the establishment of nine new large format high street showrooms in eight cities. However, interestingly, within the cities identified, the exact location of where these showrooms would be located has not yet been finalised
3. There are five third parties with the right to use the "Tribhovandas Bhimji Zaveri" name
4.The company does not register its jewellery designs under the Design Act, 2000 and may lose revenue if the designs are duplicated by competitors
5. For Fiscal 2011 and the nine months ended December 31, 2011, 94.15% and 93.69% of total turnover, respectively, was generated from concentrated regions. Hence, lack of geographical diversion can be a restriction for the company


Analysis of Financials:
Following are the financials of the company as per the Red Herring Prospectus filed by the company:


The company has managed to achieve a turnover of around Rs.1,194 Crores for FY ending 2011. The PAT  margin for the said year comes to a rather scant 3.35%. As against this, Gitanjali Gems Ltd., a listed peer, has a bit stronger position with a Turnover of Rs.5,122 Crores and a PAT margin of around 4.38%. Besides, unlike Gitanjali Gems, lack of geographical diversity and extensive global presence can also be a bottleneck for TBZ.

Although a strong brand name and experienced management can be positives for the company, investors may not digest the risk factors and not so extraordinary financial performance of the company

Tribhovandas Bhimji Zaveri (TBZ) IPO - Grading Report

April 21, 2012 0
Tribhovandas Bhimji Zaveri (TBZ) IPO - Grading Report
CRISIL has assigned a CRISIL IPO Grade of ‘3/5’ (pronounced ‘three on five’) to the proposed IPO of Tribhovandas Bhimji Zaveri Ltd (TBZ). This grade indicates that the fundamentals of the IPO are average relative to other listed equity securities in India. However, this grade is not an opinion on whether the issue price is appropriate in relation to the issue fundamentals. The grade is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold the graded instrument, its future market price or suitability for a particular investor

According to the grading report by CRISIL, The assigned grade reflects TBZ’s century-old presence in the retail jewellery business and the resultant strong brand recall. The grade factors in the resilience of demand for gold jewellery in India despite a significant rise in gold prices, 28% y-o-y in 2011, which has added shine to TBZ’s top line. Compared to other gold jewellery players, TBZ’s revenue mix leans towards higher-margin diamond jewellery, which bodes well for TBZ in the wake of increasing acceptance of diamond jewellery in India. The grade has also taken into account the expected increase in organised retail penetration in jewellery vis-à-vis the single-store format, which will benefit established players like TBZ. The company has steadily expanded from one store to 14 stores in the past decade

The grade is restrained by competition in the jewellery retailing market, which will likely intensify following planned expansions by regional/traditional players. TBZ too plans to expand to 22 stores by end-FY13 at a faster-than ever pace, which could throw up execution challenges even though its
strategies (regarding store location, size, format, personnel and schedule) are in place. Opening of new stores will also put pressure on profitability due to higher marketing expenses and working capital requirement. Further, with the Tribhovandas Bhimji Zaveri brand being used by other Zaveri family members, the risk of brand dilution cannot be ignored, especially if they under-perform on quality.

BSE may come up with an IPO soon

BSE may come up with an IPO soon
The Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) is planning to come up with an IPO which may hit the streets as early as April end or early May. Market regulator SEBI said that BSE Limited may be the first to list on the exchanges soon, reports CNBC-Awaaz. The board members of BSE Limited may consider the IPO in the last week of April

An extraordinary and rather interesting aspect of this listing, whenever materialized, would be that BSE is itself an exchange and listing of BSE on itself would be an issue. In this regard, SEBI said an exchange cannot be listed on itself, which means if the BSE were to go public, it has to do so on the NSE or another exchange and vice versa

"The stock exchanges will have diversified ownership and no single investor will be allowed to hold more than 5% except the stock exchange, depositories, insurance company, banks or public financial institutions which may hold up to 15%," SEBI said after the board meeting.
