Valuation and recommendation
At the higher price band of Rs 425 and on the expanded equity base considering the IPO, the offer is demanding market cap to sales (FY20) of 3.6 times, which is comparable to the industry average and its peers.
In terms of PE, the offer is made at around 33.68 times its FY20 earnings per share on a post-issue equity share capital of around Rs 5.2 crore of the face value of Rs 2 each.
Other established players such as Aarti Industries and Atul Limited are available at PE of 31 times and 20 times, respectively. The return ratio of Rossari is better than other listed players in the industry. For example, ROEs of the company for FY20 was at 31.79 per cent as compared to 18.9 per cent and 22.7 per cent for Aarti Industries and Atul Limited, respectively.
We believe that the issue is fairly priced. However, looking at the better return ratios and not enough capital required going forward; a long-term investor can invest with limited exposure.
