At a Glance
Prizor Viztech, the ₹217 Cr SME darling in security cameras, has quietly built a 50 lakh unit CCTV facility and posted 8x profit growth in 2 years. ROE? A mind-boggling 41%. But before you dream of Kaynes-like riches, remember: low liquidity, no dividends, and rising working capital are lurking in the shadows.
🏭 1. What business is this?
- Prizor Viztech Ltd (PVL) was incorporated in 2017 and deals in:
- 🛜 CCTV cameras & video surveillance
- 📺 Interactive educational panels
- The company recently inaugurated a massive CCTV manufacturing facility with a capacity of 50 lakh units — a move that screams Make in India, Sell in Bharat.
- Certifications galore:
- ISO 9001, 14001, 27001 etc.
- Also recently got “SME 1” credit rating from Infomerics — the SME world’s version of a blue tick.
👨💼 Promoters hold 68.3%, no pledging. Institutions have just started sniffing around with 1.4% FII holding. And public? Haan bhai, 30% is already retail trapped—err, invested.
📈 2. Financial Performance – Real Growth or Just Zoom Lens?
Year | Revenue (₹ Cr) | PAT (₹ Cr) | OPM (%) | ROE (%) |
---|---|---|---|---|
FY22 | ₹9 Cr | ₹0.02 Cr | 2% | NA |
FY23 | ₹14 Cr | ₹0.2 Cr | 4% | 12% |
FY24 | ₹36 Cr | ₹6 Cr | 23% | 72% |
FY25 | ₹71 Cr | ₹10 Cr | 21% | 41% |
📸 Zoomed in View:
- 3-year CAGR for sales: 102%
- 3-year PAT CAGR: 533%
- Operating margin has jumped from 2% → 21%
- ROE = Legendary (but tapering from 72% to 41%)
🚨 One red flag: EPS collapsed from ₹69 in FY24 to ₹9.49 in FY25. Why? Post-IPO dilution, as equity jumped from ₹0.8 Cr to ₹11 Cr.
🧾 3. Balance Sheet – Small Cap, Big Ambitions
Metric | FY25 Value |
---|---|
Equity Capital | ₹11 Cr |
Reserves | ₹32 Cr |
Borrowings | ₹8 Cr |
Cash from Operations | ₹-14 Cr |
Fixed Assets (New!) | ₹8 Cr |
Total Assets | ₹57 Cr |
Working Capital Days | 205 Days |
Inventory Days | 200 Days |
🧂 Salty Bits:
- Cash Flow is negative every year — in FY25, it burned ₹14 Cr in operations.
- Inventory-heavy model. High Working Capital Days → capital gets locked up.
- Debtor Days have improved but are still high at 81.
🥊 4. Peers? Kaynes? Syrma? Or Just the CCTV Shaadi Vendor?
Let’s compare Prizor Viztech with some established industrial electronics players:
Company | CMP (₹) | P/E | ROCE (%) | Market Cap (₹ Cr) |
---|---|---|---|---|
Prizor Viztech | 203 | 21.4 | 44.7 | 217 |
Kaynes Tech | 5850 | 127 | 14.4 | 37,507 |
Jyoti CNC | 1130 | 79.7 | 24.4 | 25,741 |
Syrma SGS | 538 | 55.8 | 12.4 | 9,571 |
Tega Industries | 1474 | 49 | 17.7 | 9,807 |
📌 Takeaway:
- Prizor has industry-best ROCE, despite being the smallest in size.
- Valuation is reasonable at 21.4x PE, especially when Kaynes is frothing at 127x.
- Market Cap to Sales (FY25): Just 3x — very sane by SME standards.
⚠️ 5. Risks – No CCTV Can Save These
- Low float SME stock – Circuit to circuit action possible, especially at ₹203 CMP.
- No dividend, despite 41% ROE. All cash being reinvested or burnt in working capital.
- Cash flow negative for 4 years straight.
- Inventory days are a monster → 200 days = 7 months of stock lying idle.
📉 Recent exchange notice: NSE asked for clarification on Q4 results. Keep an eye out for any accounting grey areas.
🔍 6. Fair Value Estimate (EduInvesting Model)
We apply a conservative multiple due to size, liquidity, and SME status.
- FY25 PAT = ₹10 Cr
- Assume FY26 PAT growth of 30% → ₹13 Cr
- EPS FY26 = ₹13 Cr / 11 Cr shares = ₹11.8
- Assign PE Range = 20x–30x (vs peers at 50x–100x)
🎯 Fair Value Range = ₹236 – ₹354
👉 Current CMP: ₹203
📈 Upside potential: +16% to +74% if growth sustains and re-rating happens.
🧠 7. EduInvesting Verdict – “Small Cap Surveillance with Large Cap Ambitions”
🎥 This stock is not just filming weddings anymore.
- ✅ ROE monster, growth double-digit, and now certified “SME 1”
- ✅ Reasonable valuation for an SME with scalable infra and margin expansion
- ⚠️ Liquidity, cash flow issues, and low institutional interest still hold it back
Can it become the Kaynes of CCTV? Not yet.
Can it double in 2 years if it executes well? Definitely possible.
But until then, don’t forget: “Jo dikhta hai wohi bikta hai” — and this stock is starting to show up.
