SKS’s Strategy and Business

With a mission to eradicate poverty and a vision to serve 50 million households across India, SKS microfinance operated as a financial service provider primarily for poor women. Its corporate anthem -flying on, marching ahead was a reflection of its strategy to achieve its mission and vision with the operational aim of using its channels to provide goods and services that the poor needed.

SKS‘s IPO hit the market with a bidding price range of Rs. 850 to Rs. 985 for an equity share having a face value of Rs. 10. Many thought this to be expensive with a post issue P/E of 35x being on the lower side and 41x being on the higher side for a post issue 2010 EPS of Rs. 24.28 -At Rs. 850 a share, the implied valuation for the firm is 3.8 times post-issue book value (net worth) and 35 times the earnings of fiscal 2010, which appears quite expensive,29 observed Pankaj Agarwal, analyst at the UK-based investment advisory firm Execution Noble (EN).
