Analyst Insight & Comprehensive Analysis
Business Overview and Revenue Trends
Peria Karamalai Tea & Produce Company Ltd (PKTEA), operating in the Plantations – Tea & Coffee industry, reported a market capitalization of ₹213 Cr and a share price of ₹687. The company’s revenue from operations for the trailing twelve months (TTM) stood at ₹53.70 Cr for March 2024, reflecting a slight increase from ₹51.54 Cr in March 2023. The annual sales trend indicates fluctuations, with peak sales of ₹72.79 Cr in March 2021, followed by a decline in the subsequent years, hitting a low of ₹47.20 Cr in March 2022. Quarterly sales showed variability, with the highest quarterly sales recorded at ₹17.94 Cr in September 2022, and a recent rebound to ₹17.79 Cr in December 2023. Overall, the company’s sales trajectory exhibits recovery signs, yet it remains below its historical peak, with challenges in maintaining consistent revenue growth.
Profitability and Efficiency Metrics
PKTEA’s profitability metrics present a mixed picture. The reported net profit for March 2024 was ₹5.40 Cr, a recovery from a loss of ₹3.36 Cr in March 2023. This translated into an earnings per share (EPS) of ₹17.24, compared to negative EPS of ₹10.86 the previous year. Operating profit margin (OPM) for March 2024 stood at 5.09%, indicating a recovery from the negative margins experienced in previous periods. However, the return on equity (ROE) was low at 0.45%, while the return on capital employed (ROCE) was slightly better at 1.50%. The cash conversion cycle, which increased to 230.13 days, raises concerns about the company’s efficiency in managing working capital. These profitability metrics suggest that while PKTEA is improving its profitability, it still lags behind industry norms, which typically feature higher margins and returns.
Balance Sheet Strength and Financial Ratios
As of March 2024, PKTEA reported total borrowings of ₹21.53 Cr against reserves of ₹188.12 Cr, indicating a modest debt level relative to equity. The company’s long-term debt to equity ratio stood at a healthy 0.03, suggesting low leverage, which is favorable for financial stability. The interest coverage ratio (ICR) was strong at 5.59x, reflecting the company’s ability to meet interest obligations comfortably. However, the price-to-book value ratio was low at 0.52x, indicating that the stock may be undervalued relative to its book value. The current ratio of 1.46 suggests adequate short-term liquidity, although it is significantly lower than the previous year’s ratio of 3.14, indicating a shift in liquidity management. Overall, while PKTEA exhibits solid balance sheet metrics, concerns about cash flow management persist, necessitating a closer look at operational efficiencies.
Shareholding Pattern and Investor Confidence
The shareholding pattern of PKTEA reveals a strong promoter presence, with promoters holding 64.19% of the shares as of March 2025, reflecting significant insider confidence. Domestic institutional investors (DIIs) hold a minimal 3.41%, while public shareholding stands at 31.80%, indicating a relatively low level of institutional interest. The number of shareholders increased to 3,716, showing a slight uptick in retail investor engagement. However, the declining percentage of DII ownership over recent quarters raises questions about institutional confidence in the company’s long-term growth prospects. The high promoter stake suggests that the company is likely to maintain a stable strategic direction, but the lack of institutional backing could limit broader market appeal. This investor confidence may hinge on the company’s ability to sustain profitability and improve operational efficiency in future periods.
Outlook, Risks, and Final Insight
The outlook for PKTEA appears cautiously optimistic, primarily due to its recent profitability recovery and manageable debt levels. However, risks remain, including the company’s fluctuating revenue trends and high cash conversion cycle, which could impact liquidity and operational efficiency. Additionally, the low ROE and ROCE indicate challenges in generating returns on equity and capital, which may deter potential investors. To enhance its market position, PKTEA must focus on improving sales consistency and operational efficiencies while managing costs effectively. The company’s ability to capitalize on growth opportunities in the tea and coffee sector will be crucial. Overall, while PKTEA possesses strengths in its balance sheet and promoter confidence, it must address its operational challenges to attract a broader investor base and achieve sustainable growth.
