28 Comments

      Nice Congrats!!! Hope listing would be positive and you will get gain. Share your experience after lsiting as well.

    On Supreme closing today. Answers to our queries-:

    1)EBITDA margins for businesses-:
    A)Special wires-:(15-20% of total sales)

    8-10% earlier but now with new products can expect 12-13%
    (Will be around 15-20% of total sales)

    B)Special steels-:(80-85% of total sales)
    This can be further divided into private and govt orders.
    Previously 75% of the orders were private and 25% were govt,hence the low EBIDTA in the financials.They are planning to invert this.This year 40% of the orders would be govt and 60% private.
    Govt orderbook-:
    30cr orderbook + 40cr bids.
    EBITDA margins in govt orders is 25-40% but WC cycle is 6-12 months.
    Bil discounting is being worked upon to reduce WC cycle by around 2 months.
    We have to understand that its not capacity but the WC that is the bottleneck in this business.

    2)He was fighting to get IPO around 42 with merchant banker.This is why IPO got delayed.But few investors and merchant bankers convinced him that mkts are bad and you should keep something on the table for investors.

    3)Tremendous tailwinds going on for business as many tenders are being floated by the govt.

    4)Land story-:
    Approx 4.78 cr land is sold off.A JV in affordable housing going on in khopoli which should give them around 24cr as per mkt value.
    Apart from this their factory land which is 6 acre.Only 1 acre is utilized is worth approx 36cr.
    Was open to the idea of shifting factory to remote area and monetizing factory land as well.
    Land monetisation would be used to repay debt (Around 60cr total)
    Since WC is the bottleneck this could lead to increased sales too.

    5)Currently not working on titanium based alloys but 2-3 yrs down the line will see the scenario and if favourable would jump into it.

    6)Change in auditors -:
    There have been only 2 change in auditors.Previous auditors were partners.But since 1 of them became their full time CA the other partner was the auditor.Hence just change of name.Similar scenario happened with other auditor as well.

    7)Focus of promoter is on bottomline and not on revenues.Expecting around 9-10 cr Pat in this year without including real estate proceeds.

    8)In SMEs the bet you are taking is on promoter and I was mighty impressed by his passion, knowledge and focus.

    Please don’t take all above points on face value.Please do your own scuttlebutt too.

    Too many issues .it will be best to chose only the best ones. Since P/e is not cheap it has high chance of listing flat and one can take a call post listing . I will avoid

    Supreme Engineering i.e Rs.15 to Rs. 17. In SME IPO the P.E should always be Half of the Mainboard company competitor, in this case, Midani Debt Free PSU is available at P.E of 19 so why should one invest in Supreme at the same P.E. If one is interested in Buying can Buy at price of Rs.15-17 if/when it comes otherwise Midani is better. Think wisely with your hard earned money.

    Supreme Engineering Ltd.
    A Mumbai based company engaged in manufacturing of special alloys As well as wire products.
    It is the only company of private sector which is manufacturing exotic alloys steel bars.
    Some features of SEL-
    1. PAT is growing @ 122% and revenue is growing @ 18.5% since last four years.
    2. EPS (before issue) 2.5 and post issue 1.85
    3.P/E (before issue) 12.75 and after issue 17.5
    4. P/B (post issue) 1.6
    (ALL CALCULATION @ UPPER PRICE BAND OF 32)
    5.EBITDA Margin is 17% (FY18)
    6. Company has long term debt of 26 cr and short term debt of 55 cr. Total 81 cr debt is the only concern but as the company has a land bank of 24350 square meters so it can easily reduce debt by selling it.
    Management has also clarified that they will reduce debt in near future.
    I will apply and hold for the long term.

    Fwd – *8 reasons to apply for Supreme Engg IPO*

    1. *Size of company*: Unlike most other companies which come in SME exchange, Supreme is already a fairly decent sized company. For FY18, the company did a revenue of 151 cr and EBITDA of 18cr

    2. *Valuation*: At the upper end of the price band, the pre ipo mcap is just 59cr. So its available at preipo valuation of 0.39 times revenue and 2.8 times EBITDA on FY18 numbers. Remember, 5 year CAGR revenue growth is 18% and PAT growth is 122%

    3. *Strong Moat* : Co makes super critical alloys. It takes years of research and then years to get approved as a vendor. There is only one listed competitor, MIDHANI, which does 666cr sales and is available at 2700cr mcap

    4. *Import Substitute Product* : Given the fact that imports are becoming more expensive due to $ rise, and the govt pushing indigenous production under the make in India mandate, huge runway ahead for revenue growth

    5. *No major Capex* : The co can easily grow its revenue from 25cr in super critical alloy to 300cr++ with minimal capex ( funded through IPO ). Operating Margins in this business are upwards of 40%

    6. *Asset sale happening* : Co owns 9 acres of land which it has started monetizing. The plan is to retire all long term debt of 25cr within next 2 years using sale proceeds

    7. *NextGen in* : Abhinav Chaudhary, promoters son, is a smart ED who is hands on with the entire business. We can look to him to drive this for many years to come. He is well qualified having done his Major in Industrial Engineering from the University of Pennsylvania

    8. *Diverse and growing applications* : Special Steels cater to Space, Aerospace, Defense, Power, Oil and Gas, Nuclear Power etc. All thrust areas in India.

    (ii) No. of Outstanding Shares= 18.734 Cr
    (iii) EPS= 7.14

    Conclusion: The Issue looks fully priced as compared to its peer Mishra Dhatu. Plus the Mishra Dhatu has very less debt on books( Almost negligible D/E).

    ( Debt Story )As on FY18

    (i) Long-term debt=25.77 Cr
    (ii) Short-term debt= 55.18 Cr
    (iii) Total Debt= 80.95 Cr
    (iv) Shareholder’s Equity= 29.21 Cr
    (v) D/E= 2.77
    Conclusion: High Debt

      Though as on date the debt is looking a menacing for the company at this juncture, however, the company has plans to reduce it.

      (i) The Company has a land bank, 6 acres (24,341.2 sq mtrs) of factory land at Khopoli, Khalapur is estimated to have a value of Rs. 18.66 Cr and they have recently alloted section of such land measuring 8,640 sq meters, for development by way of a development agreement entered into with M/s Babubhai Construction Co. and the total estimated sale area after development shall be approximately 1,84,440 sq ft (17,135.04 sqmtrs). As per said agreement, the developers shall hand over 40% of the sales proceeds post development to Supreme Engineering Ltd sale . As per the current valuation, the Company may receipt of an approximate amount of Rs. 20.21 Cr.

      (ii) The Company will also use some part of funds raised from IPO Proceeds towards Debt Reduction.

      So we can expect going forward the company will reduce its debt significantly which will reduce the dependency on high-cost debt and help to better manage the working capital requirements for their Company which in turn will aid in maintaining a good debt-equity ratio, improve profitability as well as make available funds for expansion of operations, if required.

    45% of the total Revenue of FY18 is generated from the Unit-1 which comes from PSU under government order in the defense, aerospace, nuclear power, and Heavy Industries.
