HAPPSTMNDS - Fundamental Analysis: Financial Health & Valuation

Last Updated Time : 19 Sept 25, 2:16 pm

Fundamental Rating: 3.7

📊 Core Financials Breakdown

Profitability

ROE: 12.3% and ROCE: 13.9% — decent returns, but not exceptional for a mid-cap IT services firm.

EPS: ₹10.9 — modest earnings base, with PAT declining 7.44% QoQ to ₹40.6 Cr.

Dividend Yield: 1.04% — reasonable, adds value for long-term holders.

Balance Sheet & Leverage

Debt-to-Equity: 0.76 — relatively high for a tech company, though manageable.

Book Value: ₹102 — implies a P/B ratio of ~5.6, which is elevated given current earnings pressure.

💰 Valuation Metrics

Metric Value Comment

P/E Ratio 46.8 High vs industry average (30.0) — priced for growth

PEG Ratio 936 Extremely high — suggests distorted or unreliable growth expectations

Intrinsic Value ~₹540–₹560 CMP is slightly above fair value zone

Valuation is stretched, especially with a PEG ratio that signals caution on future earnings trajectory.

💻 Business Model & Competitive Edge

Sector: IT Services — digital transformation, cloud, cybersecurity, and product engineering.

Strengths

“Born Digital, Born Agile” positioning with strong focus on GenAI, B2B gaming, and cloud-native solutions.

📉 Technicals & Entry Zone

Current Price: ₹575

DMA 50: ₹589 | DMA 200: ₹644 — trading below both, indicating short-term weakness

MACD: Negative — momentum softening

📌 Suggested Entry Zone: ₹540–₹560

A dip near intrinsic value or 52-week low (~₹520) would offer a better margin of safety for accumulation.

🧭 Long-Term Holding Guidance

Hold with caution: If already invested, monitor margin recovery and deal pipeline strength.

Accumulate on dips: Ideal for investors seeking exposure to niche digital services with innovation-led growth, but valuation discipline is key.
