Tempsens Instruments, a thermal engineering firm based in India, is set to launch an IPO to raise ₹650 crore. This capital will be used to fund capital expenditure, repay debt, and reduce the promoter group's stake from 80.5% to 65.7%. The company's revenue, which stands at ₹444.9 crore, grew by 27.2% annually from FY24 to FY26, while net profit increased by 31.8% in the same period.
Operating profit before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortisation (EBITDA) rose by 36.1% to ₹113.2 crore during the same period. However, the EBITDA margin has dropped to 24.8% from 22% in FY24. The company's revenue is diversified, with 29% coming from export markets, 45% from temperature sensing solutions, and 35% from specialized cables.
Tempsens is the leading manufacturer of electrical heaters and the sole producer of fibre optic temperature sensors in India. Despite the rich valuations, the IPO may attract high-risk investors with a long-term perspective, given the company's limited comparables in India and the need for an attractive P/E multiple of 35 and price-to-sales multiple of six.
