Inventurus Knowledge Solutions IPO: Good or bad for investors?

10] Inventurus Knowledge Solutions IPO review: The market capitalization of the Inventurus Knowledge Solutions IPO is ₹22802.07 crore. In FY24, the company’s revenue grew by around 75% YoY, whereas Profit After Tax (PAT) shot up nearly 21.40%.

Giving a ‘subscribe’ tag to this Rekha Jhunjhunwala-backed IPO, Sagar Shetty, Research Analyst at StoxBox, said, “The company reported strong financial growth between FY22 and FY24, with a CAGR of 54.3% in revenue, 32.3% in EBITDA, and 26.1% in PAT. For FY24, the EBITDA and PAT margins were 28.6% and 20.4%, respectively, while H1FY25 saw margins of 28.0% and 16.3%, respectively. The attrition rate for H1FY25 stood at 14.45% vs 24.68% in H1FY24. The company is valued at a P/E ratio of 60.0x on the upper price band based on FY24 earnings. With its robust market position and ability to explore untapped opportunities, the company is well-positioned to take advantage of emerging market trends. Therefore, we recommend a “SUBSCRIBE” rating for the issue from a medium to long-term perspective.”

Assigning a ‘buy’ tag to the public issue, Rajan Shinde, Research Analyst at Mehta Equities, said, “Based on annualized FY 2024 earnings and fully diluted post – IPO paid-up capital, the company is asking for a PE of 54.66x, which seems fully priced looking at the company’s financial growth trajectory. The short-term dip in EBITDA margins, attributed to the acquisition integration, is expected to improve as synergies materialize. However, the company may command a premium valuation because there is no listed peer to compare within a similar business. Investors should also look at IPO offers with 100% OFS, i.e., Rs.2498 cr/- cr issue, an area of concern for new investors. As it is backed by over 15 years of experience and long-standing client relationships, IKS is well-positioned to capitalize on the growing demand for integrated healthcare solutions. Hence, looking at all attributes, we recommend investors to “SUBSCRIBE” to the Inventurus Knowledge Solutions Ltd IPO for a long-term perspective.”
