There is a growth and revenue visibility in this food chain company, Singhvi said. This is a segment which is very popular among the youth. The last four years balance sheets indicate a healthy growth visibility
Negatives for Burger King
The company till now has not posted profits, which is a negative for the company, the Managing Editor said adding that the EBIDTA, though is positive for it. The valuation in this IPO could have been better in term of its size and could have been more reasonable from the standpoint of profitability. Though it was not the case that its peers including Jubilant Food and Westlife had cheaper valuations.
He, however said that the investments are made on growth and revenue prospects and not on immediate profit situation as profits take time to come, he added.
