Global Leader in Technical Textile Machinery with Strong Export Franchise and High Entry Barriers
- Lohia Corp Ltd. is one of the world's leading manufacturers of machinery and equipment used in the production of woven polypropylene (PP) and high-density polyethylene (HDPE) fabric, catering to the technical textiles industry. The company enjoys a strong global presence with exports contributing a significant share of revenue and an installed base spanning over 90 countries, positioning it as one of the leading players in the raffia machinery segment.
- The company has built a diversified business model comprising machinery sales, aftermarket spare parts and customer services. Its large installed machine base generates recurring aftermarket revenue with superior margins, improving earnings visibility and reducing dependence on fresh machine orders. Continuous investments in product innovation and technology have enabled Lohia to maintain its leadership position in a niche, high-entry-barrier industry.
- Lohia has demonstrated healthy financial performance, supported by robust order execution, increasing exports and improving profitability. At the upper price band of ₹425, the IPO is valued at reasonable multiples considering its global market position, strong return ratios and asset-light cash-generating business model. While the IPO comprises entirely an Offer for Sale (OFS), the company already maintains a healthy balance sheet and does not require fresh capital for expansion.
- Demand for technical textiles continues to grow globally, driven by increasing consumption of FIBC bags, woven packaging, geotextiles, agricultural fabrics and industrial packaging solutions. With its established brand, global distribution network and technological expertise, Lohia Corp remains well positioned to benefit from long-term structural growth in the technical textiles industry.
- Recommendation: We recommend SUBSCRIBE to the IPO with a long-term investment horizon, supported by the company's global leadership in a niche engineering segment, strong export franchise, recurring aftermarket revenue, healthy profitability and favourable long-term growth outlook for technical textiles.
