Outlook:
Anupam Rasayan commenced operations in 1984 as a partnership firm with conventional products and now it makes specialty chemicals that involve multi-step synthesis and complex chemistries.
The company’s R&D team has successfully carried out the multi-step synthesis and scale-up for several new molecules in the area of life sciences related specialty chemicals and other specialty chemicals, and as a result, expanded its commercialized product portfolio from 25 products in Fiscal 2018 to 34 products in Fiscal 2020 and 36 products in the six months September 30, 2020
The company’s total revenue has increased at a CAGR of 24.29% from Rs 3,49.1 Cr in FY18 to Rs 5,39.3 Cr in FY20 and was Rs 2,37.5 Cr and Rs 3,73.5Cr in the six months ended September 30, 2019, and 2020, respectively.
EBITDA for the year 2018, 2019, 2020 and the six months ended September 30, 2019 and 2020 was Rs 74.5 Cr, Rs 92.1 Cr, Rs 1,34.8Cr, Rs 57.5 Cr, Rs 77.4 Cr, respectively while its EBITDA margin was 21.82%, 18.38%, 25.51%, 24.55% and 21.79%, respectively, for similar periods.
Its profit after tax and share of profit of associates was Rs 41.3 Cr, Rs 49.2Cr, Rs 52.9 Cr, Rs 21.7 Cr and Rs 26.4 Cr for Fiscals 2018, 2019, 2020 and the six months ended September 30, 2019, and 2020, respectively, while it's PAT margin was 11.83%, 9.45%, 9.82%, 9.15% and 7.09%.
The company’s revenue and PAT have increased over the year but the margins have declined. At an upper price band of Rs 555 and EPS of 6.94, the PE comes out to be 79.97 which is higher than the PE of peers which is at 42.81.
Eyeing the growth of specialty chemical business we may expect to see a boost in revenue and profit. However, companies might have to work on the margin front. The company would be paying off debt by raising money from the IPO which will help in gaining the margins going further.
