Concerns
-
Future Supply Chain Solutions Limited is dependent on the Future Entities as its key customers and this accounted for 69% of its turnover in HY 17-18.
-
Company’s revenue from express logistics services declined by 9.7% from ₹1,556.33 million in Fiscal 2015 to ₹1,405.00 million in Fiscal 2016, and further declined by 10.1% from ₹1,405.00 million in Fiscal 2016 to ₹1,263.00 million in
Fiscal 2017. -
Company’s temperature-controlled logistics operations had a negative ₹9.70 million of gross profit in Fiscal 2017.
The business is in development stage. -
Regulatory changes by Government could affect its growth.
Assessment
-
The Indian logistics market has grown at approximately a 12% CAGR between Fiscals 2012 and growth is expected to continue in line with the historical growth trajectory because of strong demand and drivers like increasing urbanization, increasing consumerism due to higher per capita incomes, fashion changes, incentives from the government for infrastructure investment and higher levels of outsourcing activities.
-
Organized logistics service providers are expected to benefit substantially from key government initiatives like Make in India, GST Roll out etc.
-
In a bid to develop an integrated logistics framework within the country, the logistics sector was awarded the infrastructure status by the Indian government. This will enable companies operating cold chains, industrial parks and warehousing facilities to raise long-term credit from banks and other financial institutions at low rates, and attract foreign investment.
- After the IPO, PE investor Griffin’s stake shall stand at 14.64%(34.18%). Two funds of Edelweiss hold a combined 4.90% (pre-IPO), & PE fund GTI Capital’s owns 2.29%.
-
Future Supply Chain Solutions Limited growth rates have been impressive with revenue growing at 17.6% CAGR between FY15-FY17, and Net Profit clocking 35.2% CAGR.in this period.
-
Future Supply Chain Solutions Limited has given a very impressive financial performance with significant growth in Revenues and Profits in the HY 2017-18. This augurs well for the company and is indicative of its future growth potential.
-
Future group under Mr Kishore Biyani has managed to create a good brand value and all the listed Group entities are commanding good valuations.
-
In my opinion, Future Supply Chain Solutions Limited as a Third party Logistics (3PL) service provider has reasonably good prospects due to strong credentials of promoters, good business outlook for logistics industry and good parentage. Despite a stiff price and certain amount of uncertainties facing the equity market, I intend to subscribe to the IPO.
-
The investors response to Future Supply Chain Solutions IPO may be tempered by relatively poor listing of Mahindra Logistics. Hence the issue is not for those seeking good amount of safety but for those who are willing to bet on a bit risky company which has the possibility to continue its growth momentum in future as well.
