Blue Jet Healthcare has a solid track record of overall performance, according to the brokerage’s analysis. Topline growth was robust, growing at a 10% CAGR between FY20 and FY23 and 24% on a year-over-year basis in Q1FY24. With the exception of FY23, when it recorded an EBITDA margin of 30.4% due to an increase in raw material prices and labour costs, it has consistently produced high operating margins of more than 35%.

On the other hand, Q1FY24 saw improvement due to a slowdown in the price of raw materials and other costs. We are unable to compare Blue Jet Healthcare with exact peers since there are no identified businesses that operate in a similar capacity to it, the brokerage explained.

“However, we have done peer comparison with the set of companies having strong financials in pharmaceutical industry. Company’s ROE and ROCE for FY23 stood at 23.5% and 32.0% are slightly better compared with the average rate of peer performance of 23.3% and 30.2%, respectively. The issue is valued PE valuation of 33.9x based on Q1FY24 annualized EPS which appears reasonable when compared with an average valuation of selected peers of 34.3x. Thus, we recommend SUBSCRIBE to the issue,” the brokerage said.

The brokerage claims that Blue Jet Healthcare is primarily a Contract Development and Manufacturing Organisation (CDMO), accounting for about 75% of its total revenue. It has a specialised product line and has built enduring relationships with its customers over the course of its business. Because of this, it can now generate almost 70% of its entire revenue from long-term contracts with these kinds of clients.

The company claimed significant commercial growth in FY20–23, but rising raw material costs had an adverse effect on profitability. Despite a threefold increase in net wealth, RoE was strong. In the future, Blue Jet Healthcare will profit from lower/stabilizing raw material prices as well as continued demand for its products. It has planned a number of brownfield and new construction projects, raising installed capacity by roughly 50% over FY25E.

“There are no comparable peer having product and business operations similar to Blue Jet Healthcare. The above peers are considered only to benchmark the demanded valuation. At higher price band, Blue Jet Healthcare is demanding a TTM P/E multiple of 34x (to its TTM EPS of Rs. 10.2), which is at discount to the adjusted peer average. Thus considering the above observations, we assign a “SUBSCRIBE” rating for the issue,” the brokerage said.
