My Views:
The company faced 2 tough years off-late, after spectacular FY'11 and FY'12, but things seems to be back on track now, looking at the recent recognition and big orders, the company has received. The major risk company might face, as far as the stock price is concerned would be the very high debt, but that is because of nature of business, where they have to fulfill the orders received from the company. The Debt:Equity is close to 2.
I know many people today are considering high debt as a major factor for not investing in a particular company, but personally, I won't mind investing, if I like the company's prospectus, irrespective of their slightly higher debt, like we did with Granules India. If management is capable, they will repay it, as the size of organization grows.
Nobody can guarantee this, but its about one's own belief in the company.
Another challenge the company might face could be on account of cancellation of orders, in testing times for the clients.
But still, with strong order book, I am expecting the company to grow at 20% CAGR in sales over next 3-4 years.
Economy, not just in India, but especially Europe, will be a decisive factor for their growth, as it has lots of major clients from Europe. If it does grow well over next few years, we could see a very strong re-rating on the counter.
Past year (FY'14), was absolutely flat for the company, with sales growing only 10% over FY13, and that too, because of superb performance in Q4, where they grew about 34% yoy.
Net profit has been flat to negative, in past 2 years. Current annual EPS is around 16, which makes the stock trading at a P/E ratio of 16, which is not too high, looking at the strong client-tele, the company is having.
Safe investors can avoid the stock, because of some negatives mentioned above, but investors having some risk apetite, may invest in the company, hoping for revival in economy.
