Recommendation on AGS Transact Technologies Ltd IPO:

Review and Recommendation of AGS Transact by InvestorZone is 3/10 1. Company deals with management of ATMs around the country and cash-management service. They have Omni-Channel Integrated Payment and Cash Solutions Provider, Customer Driven Portfolio with Strong Capabilities to Develop Customised Solutions In-house, diversified Product Portfolio, Customer Base and Revenue Streams Leading to Cross-Selling Opportunities and Long-Standing Relationships with Technology Providers and Customers 2. Revenue has almost flat at Rs.1800 Crores in the last 3 years.  3. PAT has declined from 65 Crores to 57 Crores in the last 3 years. 4. EPS (FY21) = 4.62, P/E = 37x 5. Total Outstanding Shares = 12 Crores, Mcap = 2100 Crores 6. ATM and Cash business is slowly getting reduced in the economy with the advent of UPI in the last 3 years. So, that is another negative point for the company.
