Inspired by the many multibagger finds on TED, I decided to find one myself.

I think I have found one. But am only 25 and not yet so sure my projections :D. So I want to see what the seniors here think the value of this stock should be. Any guesses what the market cap of this co. should be


          FY06   FY07   FY08   FY09   FY10
Sales      125    825   1250   2150   3000
EBITDA     12     60    100       200     250
PAT           10     50     85       125     165
Cash Flow    1     20    50      110     125

   It is hard to tell from just these figures.

   One has to know how sustainable the earnings are.

   For that, it is important to understand the business, look at competitors and so forth.

Seeing the financial trends, i would say:
1. Company must be having reasonable debt : equity of around 1:1.
2. Even at EBIDTA level this has poor margins. For sales of Rs 3000 cr, a company like Mphasis will do something like Rs 800 cr on PAT basis.
3. It should be involved with trading in some sense. Can't be sure of the balance sheets as well.
4. May belong to a dicey sector like jewellery, diamond, some of the chemicals etc.
5. Without seeing the debt levels, cash balance and the exact business, i shouldn't hazard a guess on its market cap. But would not give it more than Rs 1000 cr.

Business & management have a big influence on m-cap besides the financials.
 
With that rider, I would maintain around Rs 1000 cr in current bullish trend for your xyz (please come back later for bear market valuations).

Pardon my saying but latest 2 years look made to order, and one can hold cash for so many non-core reasons like a land sale, large tax refund from a dispute, investment proceeds, need to show closing balance as at year end etc. I hope it's not done an QIP/IPO in these 2 years.
 
I have nothing against the company. If you like it that much give some more time for its story to unfold.

Are you absolutely sure of the figures? Or is this just a teaser?

My guess would be it could be an infrastructure company or a jewellery company to have such thin margins.

Stockmarket is a weird place. For every person who buys a stock there is a person who sells it and both think they are very smart.

*am figuring out what are the questions to be asked while choosing stocks.

@Master: There has been a QIP of INR100 cr in March 2008
@Hit: Yup these numbers are as reported in the Company's annual reports.

Another key issue to analyse with such companies is operating & financial performance of its associate companies.
 
My feeling is this company should have a number of subsidiaries/ associates/ partnerships belonging to the promoter group with whom this will have related party transactions, including some of them overseas. Problem is financials of all of them will not be consolidated in the results you're seeing due to lesser holding % and complex ownership structure.
 
Let me add i don't mean to discourage you from investing, please take your own call.

Good pick Aditya. I bought the stock myself in 110-130 range when it went below half its issue price (260) in may-jul2010. Co to do sales of 4000 cr this year (py 3000 cr).

Even after such a good quarterly result, with intraday rise upto 218, the stock has been beaten down badly for the last two days.

Any specific news regarding this ?
