Consolidated opinion of Brokerages, Analysts, Business New Paper Reports, Management Views on Indian Energy Exchange IPO .
Angel Broking: ” IEX is likely to continue its current growth trajectory as the short-term electricity market would continue its migration away from other platforms and to the exchanges. The company is also likely to sustain its position as the dominant market player. The company is also likely to benefit from long-term industry trends as the Indian power market moves towards global standards. The company has an ROE of 30.8% Vs 7.4% for Multicommodity Exchange (MCX), based on FY18 annualized earnings. At the upper end of the price band, the pre issue P/E multiples works out be 40.9x of FY2018 annualized EPS or IEX,Vs 51.5x of FY2018 annualized EPS for MCX. We recommend ‘SUBSCRIBE’ on the issue for a mid-to-long term ”

The company has reportedly given 14% CAGR growth in topline as well as bottomline since FY13. The company has also seen a rise in its traded volumes at a rate of 15% CAGR in electricity and 23% in terms of renewable energy. At 1,650 IEX is valued at 44.0x at its FY17 Earnings and the market cap being 5,004 crores which is in line with other exchanges. On account of its strong fundamentals and consistent growth pattern along with its dominant market share, we give a rating of “SUBSCRIBE” with a long term perspective.”

ICICI Direct: “On the valuation front, based on FY17 numbers Indian Energy Exchange is available at a P/E of 44.1x valued at the upper price band. Since there is
no listed peer, exchange, for a like-to-like comparison of the company, we have taken domestic as well as global exchanges for providing a background. On the back of an attractive cash yield of 4%, cash rich balance sheet, high profit margins, negative working capital cycle and superior return profile, we advise investors to SUBSCRIBE to IEX.”

Prabhudas Lilladher: “We believe energy trading is at a nascent stage in India with only 3% market volume traded through exchange against ~30‐50% in developed countries. High return ratio, strong cash generation and strong industry dynamic make IEX an interesting investment candidate for medium/long‐term gains. We believe stock could deliver 12‐15% earnings CAGR. At the upper end of the issue price, the post money market cap works out to be ~Rs50bn and will trade at 44xFY17 earnings. We recommend “Subscribe” with a medium/long‐term perspective. “

SMC : “Rating 3/5. Indian Energy Exchange (IEX) is India’s premier power trading platform. Providing an automated platform for physical delivery of electricity, IEX enables efficient price discovery and offers participants the opportunity to trade in a variety of energy products. As nearly 90% of total revenue of the company depends on the volume of power traded on the exchange, the company’s trading volumes may get impacted by inadequate availability or congestion on interstate power transmission network due to lack of available transmission capacity. Along term investor may opt the issue.”
