Conf call notes:
- Out of the 370 crores raised in IPO for Inox Green – 340 crores was used to deleverage the balance sheet, 31 cr was IPO expenses and the remaining 8 odd crores sits with the company.
- Only debt remaining (265 odd cr right now) on the inox green books is the 200 cr debt for Nani Virani SPV and the 100 crores equity invested in the SPV, this is fully commissioned.
- More acquisitions to come in the future, as promised pre-IPO.
- Total revenue includes trading activities (which was being on behalf of other entities till the limits were transferred back to the respective wind entities). From 1st April onwards no more trading activities will occur in this entity.
- Only looking at the pure O&M biz ( 44-45 cr revenue), the EBITDA margin was at 48% and the goal is to close to 50-55% over this FY. ( 2 crores from nani virani and 23 odd crores was from trading)
- 20 Cr which was recorded in other income – the loss in Wind II that was sold to adani had a loss on it which was reversed since it was downsold.
- depreciation on the books will be from the large infra they carry. this is going to be an asset light biz going forward, EBITDA will be equal to the cash profit. zero capex requirement. carry losses on the books as the sector for the past 5 years has been harsh, hence tax payout will be relatively zero.
- 8 or 10 deal for acquisitions are ongoing currently. plan is to buy at least 51% of these entities.
- Inox green has not given any guarantees to any other group companies.
What is the trading revenue:
Prior to IPO, all the infra belonged to inox wind and inox wind infra ltd. and they were fungible. when we carved out the O&M to Inox Green and other part to Resco, the limits were not transferred to these entities respectively by the IPO closed. Post the IPO, limits are being transferred to respective entities and what ever belonged to Inox Green- the respective LCs ( Letter of Credit) were being sold – this was being recorded as trading revenue. it is being sold at cost. there is 0 profit or loss. No more trading income will be shown April 1st onwards.
