The company has included Rs 10.4cr in revenue and the same amount in the expenditure side to factor in Food lab expenses and that’s why reported sales growth seems very strong, however, adjusted revenue grew 9.6% YoY at Rs 65.1cr. “

“Adj. EBITDA margin surged 360bps YoY at 30.6%. Better operational performance was led by cost management measures. Net profit increased 29% YoY and 20% QoQ at Rs 9.7cr. It included Rs 1.2cr as an exceptional loss for the quarter. The company has registered robust performance in H1 FY22 and guides to better the performance in the second half of FY22. In Q1 FY22, Vimta set up a regional reference Lab at Kolkata. It would take 2-3 quarters to ramp up. In Q2 FY22, the company has set up a diagnostic lab at Delhi” according to HDFC Securities.

The brokerage has also claimed that “the company has set an ambitious target of revenue of Rs 550-600cr in FY26. It would need to put up CAPEX to reach the targeted revenue number and it would depend upon which category/division would grow at a better rate. It expects the Food testing business to cross Rs 100cr revenue in the next 2 years. National Food Lab (NFL) would have a better margin than average margin. And also it guided for CAPEX of Rs 25-30cr in FY22 and CAPEX of around Rs 30cr in FY23.”

HDFC Securities’ take on Vimta Labs

HDFC Securities’ take on Vimta Labs

Vimta gets 60% of its revenue from the pharmaceutical sector, 20% from the diagnostics segment, 15% from the food segment, and the rest from other sources. “It supports regulatory authorities in mandatory certification of food and agricultural products exported from India. The company has partnered with the Govt. of India to set up a food laboratory at JNPT, which would drive revenue from FY23. Vimta enjoys a strong quality brand in the country and has a pan India presence offering both routine and specialized clinical diagnostic services. It has a network of 18 laboratories in India, including food testing and clinical diagnostics” the brokerage said.

HDFC Securities has also said that ” Despite the Covid-19 pandemic which impacted revenues in Q1 FY21, the company reported ~17% YoY growth in revenue in FY21. As per the Management, its current capacity can do optimal revenue of around Rs 300-350cr. The company aspires to reach revenue of > Rs 500cr by FY26 which implies around 20% CAGR in revenue over FY21-26E. The year FY22 will be the maiden year for the newly launched EMI/EMC services to IT, defence suppliers, medical devices, telecom, electronics and allied industries. EMI/EMC Testing (electromagnetic interference/compatibility) business enjoys high gross margin as consumables cost remains low however when it reaches maturity stage, it would give almost company level EBITDA margin. We believe the segment would drive revenue and profitability from FY23 onwards.”

What should investors do?

What should investors do?

According to HDFC Securities “The future growth pillar of the company comprises continued growth momentum in Pharma and Food segment and scale-up of its new segment i.e. EMI/EMC testing. Vimta is one of the largest players in India in its business segments. We estimate revenue/EBITDA/PAT CAGR of 22.5%/32%/47% over FY21-23E. Management guided for > 20% CAGR in revenue in the next 4-5 years.”

“Company expects all the segments to register strong growth in the next 3-4 years. Management has an ambitious target of revenue of Rs 550-600cr in FY26. It would need to put up CAPEX to reach the targeted revenue number and it would depend upon which category/division would grow at a better rate. The company guided for CAPEX of Rs 25-30cr in FY22 and CAPEX of around Rs 30cr in FY23. The company expects the Food testing business to cross Rs 100cr revenue in the next 2 years. National Food Lab (NFL) would have better margin than average margin” the brokerage further reported.

“Veeda clinical is one of the competitors in one of Vimta’s business segments. Veeda Clinical Research Ltd, a comparable Clinical Research Organisation, reported revenue of Rs 196cr, EBIDTA of Rs 66.5cr and PAT of Rs.62.9cr in FY21. In Jun-2021, It raised funds from Private Equity Investors at a Valuation of Rs 989cr. Veeda Clinical Research Pvt. Ltd has filed IPO Prospectus with SEBI to raise Rs 832cr at a significant premium valuation and seeking a much higher multiple. We feel investors can buy the stock at LTP and add on declines at Rs 302.5 (14.5x FY23E EPS) for a base case target of Rs 386 (18.5x FY23E EPS) and a bull case target of Rs 417.5 (20x FY23E EPS) over the next two quarters” claimed HDFC Securities.
