Smartworks target price
Smartworks delivered a strong quarter, with growth, margin expansion, and guidance upgrade reinforcing its execution track record. Key monitorables remain the pace of occupancy ramp-up across newly-commissioned campuses and the conversion of operating cash flow into free cash flow amid elevated expansion capex, said Nirmal Bang Institutional Equities.
"Strong pre-leasing, contracted rental coverage at 2 times of landlord commitments, and improving operating leverage as the portfolio matures provide comfort on medium-term growth visibility. We reiterate 'buy' and raise our target price to Rs 665 (from Rs 630) valuing it at 11 times September 2028E EV/Adj. EBITDA, at a 20 per cent discount to Wework's assigned multiple," it said.
Smartworks added 0.5msf during Q2FY27 and remains on track to add 1.7msf in H2FY27 across two large centres, taking annual addition to 2.5–3msf. Enterprise/GCC contribution stood at 91 per cent/22 per cent while the over 1,000 seat cohort rose to 41 per cent. Smartworks remains virtually debt-free with annualised RoCE improving to 21.5 per cent despite higher capex, JM Financial.
With H1FY27 growth at 41 per cent YoY and existing portfolio ramping-up well, the company has raised revenue growth guidance to 33–35 per cent. We estimate revenue and EBITDA would increase at a 24 per cent and 27 per cent CAGR over FY26–29E. We roll forward valuation base and value it at 12 times September 2028E EV/EBITDA," it said with a 'buy' and a target price of Rs 630.
