IPO ANALYSIS: ONE 97 COMMUNICATIONS LIMITED – WEAK SIGNAL: AVOID
The company is entering the capital markets at the wrong time. One do not know where the 2G scam findings will lead to and what will be the repercussions of the likely hardening of the guidelines by the government. Almost all companies, in the segment, either directly or indirectly, are involved in some controversy or the other. The one time darlings of the investors / traders – Bharati Airtel and Reliance Communications are trading at all time low in the exchanges. The sector has strong growth potential in the long term. However, in the near term, because of the problems in spectrum allocation, the sentiment is negative. The segment is highly competitive.
One 97 Communications are one of the leading provider of telecommunications value added services. The company offer products and services to meet the needs of telecom service providers, consumers (mobile phone users) and to the enterprises. One 97 develops and also purchase content and applications, provide the relevant platform for delivery of the products and services and integrate these products and services with the core network elements of telecom service providers.
The applications can be deployed on any telecom network and accessed from most mobile handsets. One 97 utilizes interactive voice response (IVR) system or voice, Short Message Services (SMS), Unstructured Supplementary Services Data (USSD) and Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) technology to deliver the products and services.
Network Services
The focus of the network services is to assist telecom service providers in enhancing network efficiency and improving their revenues and profitability by delivering innovative solutions that enhance their subscribers’ expectations.
The company also provides customer life cycle management services that are aimed at increasing average revenue per user, including self-care portals, service provisioning portals, loyalty programs and customer churn
management services. The services such as toll-free info lines, customer communication tools through outbound dialers, tagged-SMS, missed-call back services and USSD inserts, further enable the telecom service provider
customers to enhance their subscribers’ experiences while using their respective networks.
Services for mobile phone users
One 97 offers a broad range of mobile content, applications and commerce services to consumers, for which the company earns revenue through revenue sharing arrangements with telecom service providers. The content and applications include, music browsing, ring-tone downloads among others.
OBJECTS OF THE ISSUE:
The company intends to utilize the funds for:
(i) Procuring telecom equipment and software for installation.
(ii) Procurement of Other Fixed Assets.
(iii) General corporate purposes.
FINANCIALS:
Rs in crores
09 | 10 | 30-06-10 | |
TOTAL INCOME | 81.39 | 119.05 | 36.12 |
PAT | 2.13 | 16.17 | 6.47 |
EPS | 0.89 | 6.33 | 9.80# |
RONW | 1.76% | 11.95% | - |
# on post issue share capital, annualized.
MATTERS OF CONCERNS:
1. The rating agency CRISIL has awarded grade 3 to the IPO indicating, average fundamentals.
2. The company has derived and will continue to derive a significant portion of the income from a few major customers. For the three month period ended June 30, 2010 and fiscals 2010, 2009 and 2008, the five largest customers accounted for approximately 80.67%, 78.26%, 91.38% and 89.79% of our total revenue, respectively.
3. One of the independent directors, P N Vijay was earlier charged, for alleged violation of insider trading by SEBI.
4. The company was served with notice by RBI for FEMA violations.
5. The company is subject to risks associated with the challenges faced by the mobile communications value added services industry in which the company operates. The markets in which it operates are highly competitive and some of the competitors have greater resources than one 97. The telecom service provider customers are subject to extensive government regulation. The licenses and the regulatory environment in which the company operates are subject to change.
6. The debtors’ realization is in excess of 100 days.
OUTLOOK FOR TELECOM SECTOR:
According to CRISIL Research, the industry will grow at a CAGR of 21% from Rs 40.8 bn in FY09 to Rs 135.3 bn in FY15. The growth will be driven by telecom service providers’ efforts to increase the usage of VAS to enhance their average revenue per user, increasing availability of VAS-compatible affordable handsets, growing popularity of content on mobile and launch of 3G services. The report also says that the implementation of mobile number portability and consolidation amongst TSPs will benefit established VAS providers.
STRENGTHS:
The long-standing relationships with telecom service providers, which creates technological and time-to-market barriers to entry for new entrants.
The diversified income base, which reduces the reliance on any single market, telecom service provider, product or service.
VALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS:
The company’s RONW is below average. For FY 09, the PAT percentage was just 2.2%. However, for FY 10 the percentage has gone to 16%, which is to be taken with a pinch of salt. The shares of established service providers in the segment are languishing in the exchanges. The company’s fundamentals are not so strong. Although the company’s pre issue share capital is Rs 22.84cr, the company has a preference capital of another Rs 48cr. For this kind of capital, the revenues and earnings recorded by the company are not inspiring. There are industry specific risks, incident risks. Investors are advised to stay away from the issue.
Note: The Company had earlier received funding from Intel Capital, Softbank Asia Infrastructure Fund Partners and Silicon Valley Bank. Even the SKS Micro had the funding by the greats of the financial and corporate sector like Sequoia capital, Soros and N R Narayana Murhty. The IPO came at Rs 985 and within three months, the shares are trading at almost 30% discount to the issue price. Do not get misled by the big names associated with the company. The issue opens on 1-12-10 and closes on 6-12-10. IDFC Capital and Avendus Capital are the BRLMs.
