At the upper price band, the company is valued at a P/E of 374.22x, EV/EBITDA of 85.59x with a market cap of Rs 7,527.4 crore post-issue of equity shares.
“Since the company will use the majority of its IPO proceeds to repay its debt which is going to reduce interest costs and hence it will have a positive impact on profitability going forward. . Apart from that there is revenue visibility for the company due to its order book size and nd majority of the revenue is from the aerospace and defence industries which are high-growth sectors. We believe that the issue is fairly priced and recommend a ‘subscribe-long term’ rating,” said Manan Goyal of Anand Rathi.
“With an improved market share, growing industry demand, diversified presence, augmenting capacities at regular intervals and improving financial risk profile by repaying certain debt, a strong order book of Rs 3,310 crore to be executed over the next few years augurs well for the company. Hence we suggest a ‘subscribe’ rating for the long term,” said analysts at Reliance Securities.
