Electronics Mart India IPO: Should You Invest?

Choice Broking has subscribe rating on the stock. The IPO is a combination of fresh issue and OFS portion. Electronics Mart india will not receive any proceeds from the OFS portion. Of the fresh issue net proceeds, Rs 111 crore will be utilized to fund the expansion of retail stores & warehouses; Rs. 220 crore will be used to fund the incremental working capital requirement and another Rs 55 crore will be used for re-paying/pre-paying certain borrowing availed by the company, Choice Broking said.

The organized consumer durable market is growing fast, riding on increasing urbanization, changing consumer preferences, expansion of organized brick and mortar players and deeper internet penetration. The organized market share expanded from around 40 per cent in FY13 to 58-60 per cent in FY20. However, the Covid-19 pandemic has put the brakes on the market expansion in FY21. According to Crisil Research, the share of the organized market in consumer durables retail is likely to expand to 70-75 per cent by FY27, the Mumbai-based brokerage added.

ICICI Direct also has subscribe rating on the IPO. "Given that the company makes upfront payment to suppliers coupled with superior growth prospects, EMIL’s higher working capital requirements (incremental working capital: Rs 590 crore in FY23-24) would restrict FCF generation in the next two years. However, capital infusion worth Rs 500 crore (fresh issue) would assist in financing working capital requirements to the tune of Rs 220 crore and also boost store additions by opening of 60 stores over the next three years (capex: | 111 crore in FY23-25). D/E ratio is also expected to improve from 1.0x to 0.5x by FY23E. EMIL generates steady RoCE of 19 per cent," ICICI Direct said 

"At upper price band, EML is valued at 0.6x EV/sales and 22x P/E of FY22. We assign a SUBSCRIBE rating as valuations appear reasonable considering the company’s strong and sustainable growth prospects and continued focus on maintaining balance of revenue growth with consistent margins in line with industry peers," the brokerage added.
