While its profit reached the break-even point i.e. the company recovered the loss. While in 2020 the revenue and profit of the company were Rs.672 cr and Rs.3 cr respectively.

The company's assets have improved recently. In 2018 company's assets were Rs.393 cr. This has currently improved to Rs.498 cr. The last 5 years' sales have compounded by 14% i.e. it has increased by 14% every year. The P/E ratio of the company as related to its valuation is 33.


An interesting fact is that the company has a high debt level as currently, it has Rs.200+cr debt. The operating profit margin of Stovekraft is around 13%. All this was the information that is important for you to know. But if you have to understand the true picture then let's make a comparison of the company with the industry. Now, let's compare the important parameters of Stovekraft with other companies that trade on the share market.


We have taken different competitors like Prestige, Hawkins, Orient Electric, and Bajaj Electrical.


The P/E ratio of the company is going to get listed at 33. Its competitor- Prestige has a P/E ratio of 56. While Hawkins has a P/E ratio of 48. As compared to major competitors this company's P/E ratio is not quite high. The industry P/E ratio is 62. As compared to the industry this company's P/E ratio is 50% less. After this, the next important thing for a company is its operating profit margin as compared to the competitors.


The operating profit margin of the company is 13.88%. While major competitors like Hawkins have an operating profit margin in this range.


Hawkins is a bit better than this as it has an operating profit margin of 14.54%. While Prestige has an operating profit margin of 12.27%.


The electrical company- Bajaj Electrical has an operating profit margin of 4.22%. While Orient Electric has an operating profit margin of 8.91%.

Pros and Cons of Stove Kraft

Now let's discuss the pros and cons of investing in this company. First, I will talk about the pros.


The first pro is the turnaround of the company from being loss-making for several years. It is now a profit-making company. The operating profit margin of the company of 13.8% is quite healthy as compared to other competitors. The second pro is the company's low P/E ratio as compared to the industry. As I told you it is almost 40% less than the industry. This segment's demand improves when urbanization occurs. Urbanization can be seen as the key growth driver for the company in recent times. A shift from the unorganized players has been seen in recent times i.e. the preference has shifted from unorganized segment to branded segment. In the coming time if this continues then this company can benefit from this. But the company's benefit will be known in the future.


The next pro is that this company operates in an industry that has not entered the stagnation phase. There are growth and stagnation phases for every industry. After stagnation, it grows at a slow pace. The industry in which this company operates has seen growth. It is expected that this particular industry can see further growth. The brands of this company like Pigeon are quite common and people recognize them well.


The first con is that company's shareholder's equity is negative. An implication of this is that when a company's liabilities are more than its assets then its shareholder's equity goes negative. In this case, as well the total company's liabilities are more than its assets hence its shareholder's equity is negative. (if you view their financial statements)


The second important thing is that the outstanding debt of the company is quite huge. Currently, the company has a debt of Rs.205 cr. Its major brand Pigeon (that contributes 75% revenue) is the subject matter of litigation. If some unfavorable formation/news emerges for this brand then this company can face a negative impact. As this company has a high dependency on this brand from where it gets 75% revenue.


The next important point is the company's dependency on its distributors as they are ones that advance it's products further. In the coming time, we will get to know how the company reduces its dependency on its distributors. Its alternate strategies to sell products through different routes will be known in the future. Dependency on one thing in a business can be a point of failure. The company must focus on this. This is not just important for the company but it is also important for you to know about failure points as an investor. Furthermore, the sales of the company are concentrated in South India. Also, the sales amount is outstanding. When sales are concentrated at one place then company's face challenges. A company must look for different channels and regions to diversity itself.
