Please refer to important disclosures at the end of this report
1
Incorporated in 2006,
Future Supply Chain Solutions Ltd (FSCSL) is one of the
largest third-party logistics service providers in India. FSCSL offers
services in three
key areas i.e. (1) Contract Logistics (warehousing, distribution and value-
added
service), (2) Express Logistics (point-to-point, less-than truck-
load, time definite
transportation services), and (3) Temperature Controlled Logistics (cold-
chain
warehousing, transportation solutions and distribution of perishable products).
Positives: (a) Diverse customer base across sectors
like retail, fashion & apparel,
automotive & engineering, food & beverage, FMCG, e-
electronics & technology, home & furniture and ATMs; (b) Improvement in
operational efficiencies, technological implementation and process enhancements;
(c) Asset-light model leading to higher operating leverage; and (d)
Experienced
management with logistics and retail sector specific knowledge.
Investment concerns: (a) For 1HFY2018, FSCSL reported revenue of `408cr
, out of
which 70% was from Future Group; (b) The company’s external business repor
ted
~2% negative CAGR over FY2015-17.
Outlook & Valuation: In terms of valuations, the pre-
issue P/E works out to 39.9x its
1HFY2018 annualized earnings (at the upper end of the issue price band), which is
lower compared to its peers like Mahindra Logistics. However, Mahindra Logistics
has lower promoter group business (internal business), which is ~54% v/s.
~70%
of FSCSL. Further, Mahindra Logistics had reported non-
promoter revenue CAGR
of ~46% v/s. de-growth of FSCSL over FY15-17.
Despite the above favorable
factors and lower valuations compared to Mahindra
Logistics, we however, believe that all the positives are fully factored in the
company’s current valuations, which does not provide any
further upside for
investors. Hence, we recommend Neutral rating on the issue.

Outlook and Valuation
In terms of valuations, the pre-issue P/E works out to 39.9x its 1HFY2018
annualized earnings (at the upper end of the issue price band), which is lower
compared to its peers like Mahindra Logistics. However, Mahindra Logistics has
lower promoter group business (internal business), which is ~54% v/s. ~70% of
FSCSL. Further, Mahindra Logistics had reported non-promoter revenue CAGR of
~46% v/s. de-growth of FSCSL over FY15-17.
Despite the above favorable factors and lower valuations compared to Mahindra
Logistics, we however, believe that all the positives are fully factored in the
company’s current valuations, which does not provide any further upside for
investors. Hence, we recommend Neutral rating on the issue.
Key Risks
Slowdown in the parent’s business and overall economy could impact the
company’s earnings
Consolidation by mid-sized players in the sector
