Recommendation / Investment strategy:
- At a higher price band Rs 625 and consolidated basic EPS for FY 2013-14 of Rs 16.6, P/E Ratio works out to be 37.65. At a higher price band of Rs 625 and consolidated basic EPS of last 3 years average of Rs 12.39, P/E Ratio works out to be 50.44. At a higher price band of Rs 625 and consolidated basic EPS of 9 months ended Dec-2014 of Rs 13.04, P/E Ratio works out to be 47.93.
- Means, company is asking an issue price of P/E ratio in between 37 to 50. Comparing to its peers, highest P/E Ratio is 270 and lowest is 3.3 and industry average is 27.5. Hence the issue price is on little higher side.
- UFO Videoz IPO has several positive factors. Good reveue growth story in last 5 years, consistent profit performance in the last 2 years, 9 months, unique business model are some of the positive factors. It has incurred losses for 2 financial years in last 5.75 years, legal proceedings against company/promoters and several other risk factors indicated above are some of the negative factors.

Dear suresh
How would you rate upcoming pnc infratec ipo prospects?
I posted the analysis y’day Suraj.
It is really unique business model such as Jubiliant foodworks, Naukri, Just dial, Wonderla….etc. But PE is really valued high. I have applied for 1 lot as rain check. I applied for VRL but i did not get. I am very selective in IPO. I applied for Wonderla and VRL recently; both are not allocated to me.
If it comes down for any negative news after listing, i will grab this.
PS: i did not like the name.
