Exxaro Tiles IPO: Assessment
- The tile sector is expected to report a growth of 14% and 10% in 2021 and 2022, respectively. With increased demand from the housing sector, consumption is likely to increase by 20% and 4% in the next two years.
- The tiles industry is fragmented with presence of large organized players as well as unorganized players.
- After the GST implementation there has been a shift towards the organized sector from the unorganized sector.
- he company intends to use Rs. 50 cr from the issue towards repaying the existing debt and Rs. 45 cr towards working capital.
- In FY21, the company generated 86.1% and 13.9% of the business from the domestic and overseas operations, respectively. It has significant export presence across 12 countries like Poland, UAE, Italy, and Bosnia.
- The company mainly sells its own manufactured goods leading to higher EBITA margins but also is saddled with higher inventory.
- EBITDA margin improved from 15.6% in FY19 to 18.5% in FY21, aided by reduction in staff cost and better operating efficiency.
- On the flip side, the working capital cycle of company increased significantly to 205 days in FY21.
- Exxaro Tiles IPO was last reported to be commanding a GMP of about Rs. 25.
- Listed industry peers of the company are Kajaria ceramics, Orient Bell, Somany Ceramics etc. Exxaro Tiles is being offered at a PE of about 35 times. In comparison, Orient Bell quotes at a PE of 85x, Somany Ceramics at 41x and Kajaria Ceramics quotes at 52.9x of their FY2021 Earnings. THe IPO is priced higher compared to peers like Asian Granito which suffers from a longer working capital cycle. Further Exxaro Tiles has much lower ROE , while the peers are brands that have much higher visibility . Thus fundamentally there is not much room for appreciation in the IPO price.
- I may apply in Exxaro Tiles IPO only if I see good response to IPO from categories other the retail and in this case of hardening of GMP.
- Exxaro Tiles IPO will list under T2T category which sometimes makes investors exit difficult.
