<ul class="summary-list"><li>Buy-now, pay-later firm Klarna has filed draft registration documents for an IPO in the US.</li><li>The Swedish firm has not confirmed the price range and number of shares it will offer. </li></ul>Swedish fintech giant Klarna has filed documents for its highly anticipated initial public offering in the US.Klarna announced Tuesday that it confidentially submitted draft registration documents to the Securities and Exchange Commission.The buy-now, pay-later firm said it expects the IPO to take place once the SEC has completed its review, and the timing would be subject to market conditions. It added that the price range and number of shares it will offer have not yet been determined.Klarna, which offers short-term financing to customers online and in stores at checkout, raised $1 billion in March 2021. Three months later, it raised a further $639 million at a $45.6 billion valuation, making it Europe's most valuable startup at the time.That same year, Klarna looked to capitalize on its <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/klarna-ceo-sebastian-siemiatkowski-interview-buy-now-pay-later-retail-2020-10">rapid growth in the US</a> as online shopping boomed during the pandemic. It started investing 10 times more in marketing in the US in 2021 compared with the two years prior, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/cmo-of-10-billion-startup-klarna-lays-out-marketing-strategy-2021-2">Business Insider previously reported</a>, spending $5.5 million alone on a 30-second Super Bowl advert.But its valuation fell to $6.7 billion in 2022 during a wider market downturn for startups. In February, Bloomberg reported that<a target="_blank" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-02-27/klarna-said-to-sound-out-banks-for-us-ipo-at-20-billion-value"> Klarna was in talks with banks to go public in the US</a> at a $20 billion valuation.Klarna's public listing plans follow a period of muted tech IPO activity. It also continues a trend of IPO "brain drain" from Europe to the US, said Navina Rajan, senior EMEA private capital analyst at PitchBook. "For Klarna more specifically, the choice falls in line with the company's focus on US expansion," Rajan added. "Furthermore, the less scrutiny on profitability for tech companies seen in the US may also help alleviate cost pressures caused by expansion. "That being said, profitability is something that they have been cited to be near to achieving, which falls in line with broader trends we're seeing in the nature of IPOs that are taking place." Klarna also appears to be seeking to expand beyond its core BNPL business. It recently <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/klarna-stock-trading-robinhood-bnpl-app-ipo-2024-10">advertised four internal jobs to help build a product</a> that lets customers buy and sell stocks through its app.The company posted on an internal Slack channel last month, seen by BI, that it is hiring a team to build a tool resembling Robinhood's trading platform.A spokesperson for Klarna told BI at the time that it "continuously explores new product concepts" and that it "does not mean that such a product will eventually go to market."Do you work for Klarna?

The IPO of the company opens Monday and closes on August 11. It is looking to raise around ₹3,000 crore through the public listing.

Further, with funds of ₹668 crore in its balance sheet, CarTrade is well positioned and plans to capture adjacent business opportunities such as insurance, financing, servicing of vehicles, accessories and refurbishment and sale of cars. The public issue of the company is opening with a price band of ₹1,585-1,618 per share. Half of the issue size has been reserved for qualified institutional buyers (QIBs), 35% for retail investors and the remaining 15% for non-institutional investors. Analysts at Choice Broking have similar opinions about the company. “CarTrade is an electronic exchange focusing on auto sector and thus there is no peer company having similar business operations. At a higher price band...we feel it is attractive considering its scalable business model, profitable operations and business growth opportunities in the auto sector value chain,” said the report. The company’s revenue from operations have increased at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) rate of 26.4% over FY18-FY21. CarTrade offers a unique play on rising digitisation of new and pre-owned vehicle translation value chain/ecosystem, said a report by ICICIdirect. “We assign ‘subscribe’ rating to the issue for listing gains. Long term wealth generation at CarTrade Tech will be a function of scalability, relevance and journey towards healthier return ratios,” said the report by ICICIdirect. <table style="border-width: initial; border-style: none;" class="redcator-table-advance"></colgroup><tbody><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:2pt 2pt 2pt 2pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Particulars </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:2pt 2pt 2pt 2pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">FY21 </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:2pt 2pt 2pt 2pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">FY20 </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:2pt 2pt 2pt 2pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">FY19 </td></tr><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:2pt 2pt 2pt 2pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Profit </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:2pt 2pt 2pt 2pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">₹101.07 crore </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:2pt 2pt 2pt 2pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">₹ 31.3 crore </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:2pt 2pt 2pt 2pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">₹ 25.9 crore </td></tr><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:2pt 2pt 2pt 2pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Revenue </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:2pt 2pt 2pt 2pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">₹ 281.5 crore </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:2pt 2pt 2pt 2pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">₹ 318.4 crore </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-right:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;border-top:solid #000000 0.8333325pt;vertical-align:bottom;padding:2pt 2pt 2pt 2pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">₹ 266.8 crore </td></tr></tbody><tbody></tbody><tbody></tbody></table> SEE ALSO: <a target="_blank" class="c-link c-message_attachment__title_link" href="https://www.businessinsider.in/business/startups/news/freshtohome-and-bluestone-backer-iron-pillar-is-planning-to-bring-assets-worth-1-billion-under-management/articleshow/85161486.cms">FreshtoHome and BlueStone-backer Iron Pillar is planning to bring assets worth $1 billion under management</a> <a target="_blank" class="c-link c-message_attachment__title_link" href="https://www.businessinsider.in/science/news/nasa-wants-paid-volunteers-to-spend-a-year-living-in-a-3d-printed-martian-habitat-in-texas-where-they-will-carry-out-spacewalks-and-research-using-vr-tech/articleshow/85149673.cms">NASA wants paid volunteers to spend a year living in a 3D-printed Martian habitat in Texas, where they will carry out spacewalks and research using VR tech</a>

There is scope of further up selling or cross selling while the maps and platform are constantly updated with validated feedbacks [sic] which can create network effect [sic],” said a report by Angel One. “Considering the company’s leadership position in India, client base and benefits of network effect, healthy margins and return profile as well strong cash conversion, we recommend SUBSCRIBE on the issue from a long-term perspective,” added the brokerage firm. Some of the company’s clients include PhonePe, Flipkart, Yulu, HDFC Bank, Airtel, Hyundai, MG Motor, Avis, Safexpress and Goods and Service Tax Network (GSTN). It has over 500 customers. Ravi Singhal, vice chairman at GCL Securities feels that MapmyIndia is offering a great business model with entry barriers along with promising growth potential. Meanwhile, some of the analysts are recommending to subscribe the IPO only for listing gains and here’s why. Manoj Dalmia, founder and director at Proficient Equities, said that one may subscribe to MapmyIndia for listing gains considering its GMP (which is at ₹800) and client base. Usually, shares that demand a huge premium till the last day of the IPO tend to give higher gains on the day of listing. Analysts at Investmentz believe that while MapmyIndia is well placed to capitalise on domestic opportunities, its upper price band of ₹1,033 per share is aggressively priced. The broking firm has recommended subscribing for the IPO for listing gains. <div type="image" title="mapmyindia rev" height="900" width="1200" msid="88180984" hostid="261"></div> SEE ALSO: <a target="_blank" class="c-link c-message_attachment__title_link" href="https://www.businessinsider.in/business/news/shriram-properties-ipo-company-has-dominant-position-in-residential-space-at-south-india-omicron-may-spoil-its-plans-once-again/articleshow/88167044.cms">Although Shriram Properties has a dominant position in the residential space in southern India, Omicron may play spoilsport in the near future</a> <a target="_blank" class="c-link c-message_attachment__title_link" href="https://www.businessinsider.in/business/startups/news/byjus-has-acquired-yet-another-startup-this-time-from-austria/articleshow/88177950.cms">Byju's has acquired yet another startup, this time from Austria</a>

The drop in momentum tells that the <keyword id="6354763" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="IPO" source="Orion">IPO</keyword> market seems to be waning in vigour. Note that IPOs are known for their listing day gains as it allows investors to exit the company with profit within a short span of time. “So, the problem with IPOs is not the fact that they are coming to the retail public to raise capital, but their valuations are not very reasonable. Everybody who is coming into IPO now is not leaving too much room on the table for retail to make money. They are in many ways overestimating the growth and coming in at a clearly frothy valuation, that I think is the main problem, said Nikhil Kamath, co-founder at Zerodha and True Beacon to Business Insider. Moreover, IPO subscription data shows that those with high subscriptions are usually the ones with good listing gains. All IPOs opened recently have been fully subscribed, but not heavily subscribed like they used to be which shows the reduced interest among investors. <table style="border-width: initial;

the other hand, the current negative sentiment in the market gives another reason for investors to stay away from IPOs. IPOs are taking away too much liquidity from the market. In the last week, four IPOs which came in took away ₹16,800 crore of liquidity, said Jyoti Roy, deputy vice president, equity Strategist at <keyword id="103837" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="angel-broking" source="Orion">Angel Broking</keyword>. “IPOs will probably have to wait for some time for market sentiment to improve. Now IPOs need to ensure they do not crowd the market at one time because that will lead to liquidity crunch. Investors will become more choosy after the scenario,” he added. Also, investors need to gauge the difference between existing and future performance projected by the IPOs while investing, said Vijay Singhania, chairman at <keyword id="2838524" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="tradesmart" source="Orion">TradeSmart</keyword>. “Valuations based on projected performance is no [sic] valuation,” he said.

Given the massive opportunity in the Home Healthcare segment, the growth momentum is expected to sustain in subsequent years. The Home Healthcare market in India and neighbouring countries was pegged at ₹20800 crore in 2019, and it is expected to grow to ₹38,900 crore by 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11%. “IPO is valued at 5.6x annualized earnings report in 1HFY21, which looks to be attractively valued given the high asset turnover and return ratio of the company,” the report added. There are no listed peers, and therefore the benchmark valuation is difficult to ascertain. Asset light business model helps penetrating new geographies and keeps it capital efficient According to the Axis Securities report, the asset-light business model does not require Nureca to invest heavily in physical assets such as plant and machinery, land and property, which allows them to be capital efficient. The business model is scalable, such that they can expand their geographical reach and distribution capacity and add new products efficiently and at a relatively low cost without disrupting their existing business. The impressive financials According to Reliance Securities, “Nureca financials are quite encouraging.” While the company’s revenue recorded 122% CAGR over the past three fiscals, its net profit grew by 44% CAGR during the same period. <div type="image" title="Nureca&amp;#39;s financials" msid="80920950" hostid="261"></div> More importantly, the earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) and profit became almost 5.7x in the second quarter ended September 30, compared to FY20 performance. E-commerce to expedite growth The company is considered as the first digital company to sell such products through its website (drtrust.in) and other online partners. Most of the product lines support India's home health market, making it a one-stop solution provider. Dr Trust is known for its innovative products in the market, and, with the segment showing significant potential for growth. According to GEPL Capital, “the diversified portfolio range, growth in the home healthcare segment and higher online channel mix are estimated to drive profitability in the years to come.” SEE ALSO: <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/business/startups/news/this-startup-helps-you-watch-shows-shop-online-and-access-the-internet-even-without-a-data-connection/articleshow/80918896.cms" data-type="tilCustomLink">This startup helps you watch shows, shop online and access the internet even without a data connection</a> <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/stock-market/news/elon-musk-wants-major-holders-of-cryptocurrency-dogecoin-to-sell-most-of-their-coins/articleshow/80920866.cms" data-type="tilCustomLink">Elon Musk wants major holders of cryptocurrency Dogecoin to sell ‘most of their coins’</a>

The IPO will remain open till February 18. RailTel is a government-owned information and communications technology (ICT) infrastructure provider firm and one of India's largest neutral telecom infrastructure providers. This would be the seventh initial public offerings this year, and second by the Ministry of Railways after it recently pared stake in Indian Railway Finance Corporation IPO— which listed at a 4% discount last month. Nearly all the brokerages have given a ‘subscribe’ rating for the issue citing long term as well as listing gains. According to investment experts about the RailTel business, the best thing is its exclusive right of generating additional revenues by creating nationwide broadband and multimedia networks by laying optical fibre cable by using the right of way along railway tracks. Per red herring prospectus, as of January 31, the company had the exclusive right of way along 67415 route kilometres connecting 7321 railway stations for laying optical fibre cable.

Our business is largely linked to cash management and due to the pandemic some transactions were impacted, says Ravi B Goyal, chairman &amp; managing director at AGS Transact Technologies to Business Insider in an interview. The company reported a loss of ₹18 crore in the first five months of the financial year April to August, 2021. It raked in less profit in the last financial year than it did in the year before the pandemic. <div type="image" title="ags transact rev 2" height="900" width="1200" msid="88987001" hostid="261"></div>The company operates in three business segments: <table style="border-width: initial; border-style: none;"></colgroup><tbody><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Payment solution </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Offers services such as ATM, cash management, digital payment solutions, POS machine service and so on </td></tr><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Banking automation solutions </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Sale of ATM, cash recycler machine etc </td></tr><tr><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">Other automation solutions </td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 1pt;border-right:solid #000000 1pt;border-bottom:solid #000000 1pt;border-top:solid #000000 1pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt;overflow:hidden;overflow-wrap:break-word;">System automation products for clients in petroleum, color segment </td></tr></tbody></table>“As a business we have gone through a lot of challenges, it all started with demonetisation, where we had no cash as 85% got wiped up and we had a new currency. And all these ATMs needed to be recaliberated so that was also a massive job. So first no cash then cash available but cannot be used. Then we have a first pandemic with massive lockdown but ATM being an essential service, our team in the field has done a remarkable job,” added Goyal. The company earns 75% of its revenue from the payment solutions segment and only 15% from digital initiatives. While the entire ₹680 IPO is an offer for sale by existing promoters and shareholders, the company’s chairman is selling shares worth ₹677 crore. Out of the ₹677 crore IPO proceeds of Goyal ₹650 crore will be used to pay half of the company’s debt. Currently, the company’s debt is at ₹1,100 crore debt after the 650 IPO proceeds, it will halved to ₹550 crore Goyal indirectly owns 97.61% of AGS Transact with 55% through direct equity ownership and 42% through Vineha Enterprises, which is also a firm held by him and his wife. While Goyal is selling shares worth ₹677 crore, among others VC Gupte, Shailesh Shetty, Rakesh Kumar, Nikhil Patiyat and Rajesh Harshedrai Shah will sell the remaining ₹2.42 crore worth of shares. Further, analysts recommend avoiding the IPO because of increasing digital payments in the country that could have an adverse effect on AGS Transact’s business. “The company is one of India's leading Omni-channel payment solution providers with a strong network. However, the government's focus on digital payments will further decrease the use and availability of cash can have an adverse effect on business activities,” said analysts at Swastika Invest while recommending a ‘avoid’ rating to the IPO. “AGS has high client concentration with top three customers accounting for 33.6% of revenues and has reported a loss for the first five months of FY22. Given premium valuations, high client concentration and losses in the first five months we have a neutral recommendation on the IPO,” said Jyoti Roy, DVP - equity strategist at Angel One.

Adding to it is the fact that the company holds a dominant position in east India with 17% market share in terms of capacity. <div type="image" title="Nuvoco peers" height="900" width="1200" msid="85177110" hostid="261"></div> “The country’s demand growth is likely to be led by east and central regions and will be primarily from affordable housing and infrastructure creation and the cement sector is expected to largely benefit from it. Nuvoco Vistas, being the largest cement company in the east region, is well placed to capitalise on these opportunities...We recommend to subscribe the [sic] issue from a long-term perspective,” said analysts at Investmentz.com. One biggest drawback for the company is its high debt. As of December 31, 2020, its net debt stood at ₹7,259 crore. The company intends to use the proceeds from the fresh issue to pay some of its debt. The cement manufacturer’s valuation is at a discount to its large cap peers as it partially factors high debt and low returns on capital employed (ROCE), said a report by IDBI Capital. “But given [the] up-cycle in the cement industry and expectation of improvement in margin and balance sheet deleveraging over FY21-23 earnings estimate we recommend subscribe,” added the report.

<ul class="summary-list"><li>Robinhood's upcoming IPO is overvalued and packed with regulatory risk, according to veteran stock analyst <keyword id="3498946" type="PERSON" weightage="60" keywordseo="david-trainer">David Trainer</keyword>.</li><li id="recirc"><a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/?hprecirc-bullet"></a>Trainer's investment research firm said Robinhood's main source of revenue-payment for order flow-could be banned by regulators. </li><li>A ban would severely harm Robinhood's business model, Trainer said.</li></ul>Robinhood's upcoming initial public offering presents "alarming" risks to investors as regulators could stifle the brokerage app's main source of revenue, according David Trainer, CEO of investment research firm New Constructs. 81% of Robinhood's revenue in the first quarter of 2021 came from a controversial practice known as <keyword id="10728314" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="payment-for-order-flow">payment for order flow</keyword>. The brokerage app argues that payment for order flow allows it to offer free trading to their customers. In June, SEC chief Gary Gensler questioned whether payment for order flow provides investors with best execution."Payment for order flow raises a number of important questions. Do broker-dealers have inherent conflicts of interest? If so, are customers getting best execution in the context of that conflict? Are broker-dealers incentivized to encourage customers to trade more frequently than is in those customers' best interest?" the SEC chair said in<a href="https://www.sec.gov/news/speech/gensler-global-exchange-fintech-2021-06-09"> prepared remarks</a>. If the SEC ever outlaws payment for order flow, Robinhood may not be able to offer commission-free trading, which would put the app at a disadvantage against competitors Fidelity and Charles Schwab. Unlike Robinhood, those firms generate more revenue from other services, he added.In June, SEC chair Gary Gensler said the US regulator is reviewing payment for order flow, but the practice is still legal. Trainer noted that Robinhood hired former SEC Commissioner Dan Gallagher as chief legal officer in 2020 and paid him $30 million after seven months. "$30 million to one person is a lot for a firm without any regulatory concerns," Trainer said. "The mounting regulatory risk Robinhood faces makes us concerned that the public may see Robinhood's stated goal to 'democratize investing' as a ruse to lure them into speculative trading and gambling that benefits Robinhood more than the individual investor."Trainer also said that Robinhood's valuation is worth no more than $9 billion, significantly less than the firm's expected $35 billion price tag. According to Trainer, Robinhood's $35 billion valuation implies the firm will be able to maintain its pandemic-era profitability, grow revenue by almost 3,000%, and compete with established rivals like Schwab. But the app lacks scale and with the meme stock frenzy fading for now, its best years may already be behind it, he said.

<ul><li>The ₹412 crore IPO of kitchen appliances manufacturer Stove Kraft is now open for public subscription. </li><li>The IPO will remain open for subscription until January 28. </li><li>The shares were commanding a premium of ₹80-90 in the grey market over the set price band of ₹384-385 per share.</li><li>“Company’s brand value, margins and return on capital are lower than its peers so it won’t get such a premium valuation like its peers,” Angel Broking said in its report. </li></ul>The ₹412 crore initial public offering of kitchen appliances manufacturer Stove Kraft is now open for public subscription. This would be the fourth company to launch an IPO this year and second stake sale by private equity firm Sequoia Capital, which recently pared stake in Indigo Paints. The public issue has received mixed reviews from the brokerages, but the grey market is ready to pay a hefty premium for its shares. The shares were commanding a premium of ₹80-90 in the grey market over the set price band of ₹384-385 per share. However, the grey market is not an official measure of the market premium. But it is a fair indicator of demand for the shares in the market.

The metric is called price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio, which shows the price that the market is willing to pay for a stock based on its earnings. Higher the P/E, the more expensive the stock. Bigger peers like TTK Prestige and Hawkins Cookers, get a multiple of 61 times and 47.5 times respectively. While Stove Kraft seems cheaper, analysts aren’t very excited. “Company’s brand value, margins and return on capital are lower than its peers so it won’t get such a premium valuation like its peers,” the brokerage said. <div type="Article" hostid="261" msid="80442243" title="An American electric car maker explains why it took a different route than Elon Musk’s Tesla, Tata Motors or Mahindra" mstype="2" mssubtype="0"></div> Weak financials According to Reliance Securities, the Stove Kraft financials have not been “encouraging” despite seeing a remarkable improvement in margins in the past fiscal year. Even Angel Broking said that the profit for the last financial year ending March 2020 was driven by cost-cutting, which is not “sustainable”. <div type="image" title="Stove Kraft" msid="80444510" hostid="261"></div> The company’s net profit stood at mere ₹3.2 crore in FY20, which improved to ₹28.8 crore in the first half of 2021. However, Reliance highlighted that the company’s net worth stands at negative ₹30 crore as of September 2020. Lags behind its peers The analyst reports highlighted that despite being into operation for more than two decades and setting up a strong distribution network, it has not delivered up to the mark results. The company's business performance is substantially dependent upon its Pigeon and Gilma brands', which have been around for over 15 years. But, according to ICICI Direct, the company’s inability to maintain and promote the brand portfolio can impact future revenue growth. <div type="image" title="Stove kraft market share" msid="80444519" hostid="261"></div> Positives for Stove Kraft's ₹412 crore IPO Diversified kitchen and home appliances portfolio Since its inception, Stove Kraft has grown from a single brand small LPG stove manufacturing company to become one of India's leading manufacturers of kitchen appliances. Along with Pigeon and Gilma, the company has a Licensing agreement to manufacture small domestic appliances under the brand 'Black and Decker'. Expanding business The company recently expanded its production capacity from 19.5 million units per annum to 38.4 million units per annum. The facilities are backwards integrated with the ability to in-house manufacture components required for its products, which reduces its dependence on third-party suppliers and OEMs for its components. The company has an integrated facility at Bengaluru comprising 12 manufacturing units to manufacture pressure cookers, non-stick cookware, hard-odized cookware, mixer grinders, and induction cooktops LPG stove, glass cooktops, IR thermometer and handy vegetable chopper.
