- Company’s average occupancy of 60% is lower than peers (70%+), but its average room rent (ARR) of Rs. 20,000 is the highest compared to listed luxury hospitality peers .
- It has 367 keys under development across 3 hotels in Varanasi, Bengaluru and Sri Lanka, to be operational by FY27-28E.
- In Aug 2024, Ventive Hospitality raised Rs. 1,450 cr though a pre-IPO placement. This was done @Rs. 618 per share, from Blackstone. Now after about 4 months, IPO price is 4% higher, which looks reasonable.
- IPO proceeds will be used for repayment of Rs. 1,400 cr debt, which will aid the bottom-line as there is Signiant interest outgo from the Rs. 3600 cr. odd debt @12% rates taken by the company to fund acquisitions. and thus company is expected to be in the black, from H2FY25 onwards
- PE (FY25 annualized) -Loss ; PE FY24 90xx
- The Company has delivered a robust Revenue/EBITDA/PAT CAGR between FY22 and FY24 which stands at 289.1%/361.6%/474.5% respectively.
- I intend to apply in Ventive Hospitality IPO. Post the IPO, promoter holding will still be 89%, indicating low dilution and confidence of promoters in the business. Debt reduction should help it to put a better show. VHL specializes in owning and operating luxury hospitality assets and has backing of Blackstone. ,
- GMP as per social media ruled about Rs. 45 (7.0%)
