Story | Provogue is a textile/clothing brand which sells across multiple Provogue stores. It’s subsidiary Prozone is a chain of malls which are being built. Dislike because of pledged shares – otherwise seems to be a good company, but I don’t buy companies with pledged shares unless I am very sure of the company’s financial position. |

markets are at all time highs, but provogue has moved from Rs. 25 in jan 2012 to Rs. 12.71 in Jul 2014. Mcap has shrunk from 286 Cr to 145 Cr. trailing 12 month sales are at 590.22 Cr with a trailing NP of 0.93 Cr (which is atleast a 10 year low). It has to pay 37 Cr of interest in the year, to service a debt of about 275 Cr. Another growth in sales without increase in capital expenditure is needed to make the company shares more valuable. It is not a loss making company, but not growing enough as well.
