The company has seen a surge in profits in the latest year, but that could be more due to restatement due to an exceptional gain of ₹249 crore from fair valuation of previously held equity interest. Hence, a more sustainable picture would be flat growth in PAT in FY25.
Aditya Infotech Ltd is a company that has seen a surge in profits in the latest year, but as stated earlier, it is due to the surge in one-time gain from equity fair valuation of interest. Devoid of that the growth has been flat. Hence, after including the one-time gain effect, the P/E at the IPO price works out to 20.44X. However, if that impact is eliminated, the sustainable P/E ratio at the IPO price is closer to 58-60X, which is relatively much higher.
Aditya Infotech Ltd is a leader in India in the video surveillance equipment business; and has a product and solutions business. This derisks its model. It caters to the commercial and consumer segments through its distribution network. Even excluding the one-time gain impact, the ROE is around 30%, which is good. The capital intensive nature of the business has kept the asset turnover under stress. Overall, Investors can look at the IPO with the knowledge that sustainable P/E is much higher. Business model surely has a niche!
