Peer comparison and valuation (Contd…):

•   The company's mobile game offerings has gained significant traction owing to its access to & ownership of premium
    localized IP & content, constant enhancement of in-app purchases & features for better monetization opportunities and
    leverage of existing distribution & advertisement networks. The acquisition of Nextwave saw WCC becoming the largest
    mobile-based cricket simulation game with a daily active engagement of 51 minutes by over 15mn monthly active users
    (MAU).
•   Nazara also enjoys the status of being the only company in India to have rights over IP and assets across grassroot,
    regional, national and international eSports. The company has market-first positions in India across sports simulation and
    eSports. Its eSports content business grew by 60% in FY20 and has grown by 9x times in the last three years. The
    company has successfully monetized competitive gaming in India through exclusive license partnerships with global
    brands & publishers, including Electronic Sports League and eSports World Convention and management of IP based
    gaming events such as ESL India Premiership, KO Fight Nights and Electronics Sports World Cup India Qualifiers, Mountain
    Dew Arena and the CII India Gaming Show.
•   Absolute Sports, which operates Sportskeeda (a leading sport & eSports news destination website with content across
    WWE, eSports, cricket, soccer and basketball), is the largest multi sports news site in India. As of 30th Sept. 2020,
    Sportskeeda had over 20mn MAUs.
•   Nazara’s content is developed in India for the Indian as well as for the global audience, thereby allowing it to achieve
    scale. This can be demonstrated by an average of 40.2mn MAUs in FY20 and an average of 57.5mn MAUs across all
    games for 9M FY20.
•   Growth in the domestic mobile gaming market is predominantly characterized by the rising adoption of smartphones,
    drop in data prices, increased internet penetration, high internet speeds etc. The mobile gaming market in India is the
    largest gaming segment, valued at USD 1.2bn in 2020. It is expected grow by around 40% CAGR over 2020-23 to reach a
    level of USD 3.1bn by 2023. Being a relatively nascent market, the growth rate for mobile gaming in India closely reflects
    the growth rate witnessed by China during 2013-20.
•   On financial performance front, Nazara has reported a mix set of performance. Over FY18-20, its topline has grown by
    19.9% CAGR to Rs. 2,475.1mn in FY20. Total operating expenditure increased by 43.2% CAGR (higher than the top-line
    growth), leading to a consolidated loss of Rs. 55.2mn in FY20. In FY18 and FY19, EBITDA stood at Rs. 487.2mn and
    163.5mn, respectively, with a margin of 28.3% and 9.6%. With acquisition of new assets, depreciation charge increased
    by 80.9% CAGR, while with the decline in lease interest rates, finance expenses declined by 17.9% CAGR. Other income
    increased by 21.6% CAGR, leading to a pre-tax loss of Rs. 208.2mn in FY20. During FY18 and FY19, pre-tax profit stood at
    Rs. 127.9mn and Rs. 108.7mn, respectively. In FY18, the company had an exceptional loss of Rs. 357.2mn, primarily on
    account of group share based payments. Consequently, adjusted PAT stood at a loss of Rs. 3.1mn in FY20 as compared to
    an adjusted profit of Rs. 384.5mn and Rs. 184.6mn in FY18 and FY19, respectively.
•   During H1 FY21, consolidated top-line stood at Rs. 2,004.6mn (consolidation of Paper Boat during the period). EBITDA
    was at Rs. 61.1mn with a margin of 3%. Higher depreciation charge, mainly led to a loss of Rs. 34.2mn during H1 FY21.
    Based on our conservative estimates, over FY20-23E, we are forecasting a top-line growth of 33.8% CAGR to Rs.
    5,927.7mn in FY23E. EBITDA and PAT margin to expand by 11ppts and 3ppts, respectively, to 8.8% and 2.6%, respectively,
    in FY23E as compared to -2.2% and -0.1% in FY20.

At higher price band of Rs. 1,101, Nazara is demanding an EV/Sales multiple of 12.8x (to its FY20 sales of Rs. 2,475mn).
However, if we annualize the H1 sales, the demanded valuation comes out to be 8.4x, which is attractive considering the
prevailing valuation of internet technological companies in India. Thus, considering the nascent stage of domestic gaming
market and the dominant position of the Nazara in key growth segments, we assign a “SUBSCRIBE” rating for the issue.

Financial performance:
  Performance over FY18-20: On financial performance front, Nazara has reported a mix set of performance. Over FY18-20, its
  topline has grown by 19.9% CAGR to Rs. 2,475.1mn in FY20. Business from the Telco subscription segment (whose
  contribution declined from 89% in FY18 to 33% in FY20) declined by 26.9% CAGR, mainly due to the disruption in the
  domestic telecom market resulting in churn of the subscriber base, delay in getting connectivity with a new telecom
  operator and launch of new products on existing telecom operators. Consolidation of the Nodwin, led to a 380.8% CAGR
  growth in the business from the eSports segment, whose contribution increased from 2% in FY18 to 34% in FY20. Moreover,
  inclusion of Halaplay led to a 17% contribution to the top-line in FY20.

  Total operating expenditure increased by 43.2% CAGR (higher than the top-line growth), leading to a consolidated loss of Rs.
  55.2mn in FY20. In FY18 and FY19, EBITDA stood at Rs. 487.2mn and 163.5mn, respectively, with a margin of 28.3% and
  9.6%. Content, event & web server and Advertising & promotion, cumulatively stood at 74.2% of the top-line in FY20 as
  compared to 31.9% in FY18. Increase in these expenses was mainly due to the acquisition of contents and branded licenses
  and their related marketing & advertising initiatives. Employee expenses (which was an average 20% of the top-line during
  the period) declined by 7.4% CAGR.

  With acquisition of new assets, depreciation charge increased by 80.9% CAGR, while with the decline in lease interest rates,
  finance expenses declined by 17.9% CAGR. Other income increased by 21.6% CAGR, leading to a pre-tax loss of Rs. 208.2mn
  in FY20. During FY18 and FY19, pre-tax profit stood at Rs. 127.9mn and Rs. 108.7mn, respectively. In FY18, the company had
  an exceptional loss of Rs. 357.2mn, primarily on account of group share based payments. Consequently, adjusted PAT stood
  at a loss of Rs. 3.1mn in FY20 as compared to an adjusted profit of Rs. 384.5mn and Rs. 184.6mn in FY18 and FY19,
  respectively.
  Nazara reported a positive cash flow from operating activities of Rs. 31.7% and Rs. 192.3mn in FY18 and FY19, respectively,
  but a negative operating cash flow of Rs. 22mn in FY20.

  during the period). EBITDA was at Rs. 61.1mn with a margin of 3%. Higher depreciation charge, mainly led to a loss of Rs.
  34.2mn during H1 FY21.
