Inference
CDEL has a positive operating cash flow but it has been witnessing net losses for past few years as a major chunk of its revenue, is being eaten up by the finance cost, other expenses and depreciation. Being a loss making company Return Ratios are meaningless and ratios like Price-to-Book and EV/EBITDA come handy.
Post-issue its Price-to Book is almost 11 whereas EV/EBITDA stands at 22.5.
These valuations are stretched for a loss making company like CDEL.
Even after the loan repayment to the extent of Rs. 633 crore, a significant amount of debt shall be there on books,
Coffee business and Logistics constitute around 87 % of the total revenue whereas the businesses of financial services,technology parks and other businesses are still in their nascent stages.
Though CDEL is the pioneer of cafe culture in India but considering the per-capita coffee consumption in India,cut-throat competition, higher debts on the books and the stretched offer price of the issue, this issue does not seem that intriguing in the short to medium term and its short-term future might be more influenced by the hype and exuberance of the market than the valuations.
