1) In the previous three years, company margins have been declining. Profits in FY20 were Rs 69.6 crores, compared to Rs 21.8 crores in FY22. Despite a rise in revenues, a decline in margins is a major issue.2) OFS receives Rs 504 crores from the total IPO proceeds, while the firm receives nothing.3) A Covid epidemic has previously harmed the industry. Such pandemics are unpredictable and may have an influence in the future.4) An increase in NPAs might have an impact on the firm.5) The microfinance business in India confronts specific risks owing to the borrowers it serves, which are not often connected with other types of lending.
The microfinance industry has recorded healthy growth in the past few years, with microfinance lenders emerging in good numbers. Fusion Micro Finance is one such company that is among the top 10 NBFCMFIs in India. It offers loans to women entrepreneurs. Its business runs on a joint liability group-lending model, wherein a small number of women form a group and guarantee one another’s loans. The company works with a strong focus on rural areas and has a well-diversified and extensive pan-India presence. The company also has access to diversified and recognized sources of capital and has a good financial track record. Although this company's margins are now in declining mode and it is facing risk due to the category of borrowers it serves, an increase in the level of NPAs could also be a concern for the company. Secondly, the company demands a price-book (P/B) multiple of 1.8 on a post-IPO basis, whereas its peers like credit access command a P/B of 3.3. Thus, considering all the factors, we recommend a Subscribe rating for this issue, but only for high-risk investors with a long-term view.
According to market watchers, the shares of Fusion Microfinance are trading at a premium (GMP) of ₹24 in the gray market today. The company's shares are expected to be listed on the stock exchanges BSE and NSE on Tuesday, November 15, 2022. The allotment of shares is expected on 10 November 2022. The company has said in its draft paper that it wants to use the capital received from this issue to increase its base.
