Hello Sir,

Hope you are doing well.

Today we released new Special situation opportunity for our Alpha + members and would like to share with you details on the same.

The detailed note can be accessed HERE

Special situations constitute opportunities arising out of announced corporate transactions such as De-listing, Open offers, rights issue, de-merger, bankruptcy restructurings, etc.

In markets, every investment opportunity comes with certain risks; however, if carefully analyzed, one can always participate in opportunities with seemingly low downside and a potential for good upside.

At the same time, the holding period in general for such opportunities is 3-5 months.

Some details about the latest special situation opportunity are as follows:

 

Demerger based Special situation opportunity

The opportunity we are talking about has the following attributes:

  • It’s a Demerger based opportunity
  • Market cap < 1000 crore
  • The company is currently running 2 diverse businesses and intends to demerge 1 of the businesses and list it separately
  • Both the businesses are growing and profitable; however, the one getting demerged is growing faster and significantly more profitable
  • The business getting demerged has reported 200% + growth in sales and almost 600% growth in profit since FY 15
  • The company has surplus cash and equivalents to the tune of 20% of the market cap of the company
  • Valuations reasonable at less than 10 times pre-tax TTM earnings

We believe, when listed separately, the business with superior profitability and growth can command higher valuations. Thus, the sum of the parts can be greater than the whole.

No opportunity is risk free and here the primary risks are: sustainability of profit as the business can be lumpy, and impact cost as being a small company the average daily volume is low.

Overall, at around current price the risk-reward ratio seems in favor of the shareholders and have therefore initiated the opportunity for Alpha + Members
