As is evident from the above table, losses have clearly narrowed even as revenues took a hit due to COVID in FY21. The fresh issue proceeds of Rs.8,300 crore will be mainly used for acquiring customers, strengthening the payment system, strategic partnerships, inorganic acquisitions and for higher-end technology investments.
Strengths of the company:
1. The company has a very desirable customer base of one-fourth of the Indian population i.e. 33 crore people and 21 million registered merchants
2. Paytm has a brand value of a whopping $6.3 billion
3. It is India’s leading digital payment avenue
Weaknesses:
1. Many analysts have called this IPO as a speculative investment rather than a prudent investment bet as in spite of the whopping 60% cut in marketing and promotional expense, the company has continued to report losses in FY21 too hence the idea of profitability hangs in the balance
2. It is not just a passive investment, the investor needs to keep an eye on the workings and operations of the company and its management
Risk factors:
1. The company has negative EPS which means that the company is experiencing only losses and no profits
2. Initial level investors are selling their stakes in the company which they obtained at a price range of 50 paise to Rs.15.40 and this can pose as a great risk to the new investors
3. The ROE is negative
4. The 7 book running lead managers of this IPO have handled 48 public issues and 25% of these issues are trading below the issue price, so there is no guarantee of the opening price being more than the price paid for the shares by the investor.
