Strengths & Financials of Afcom Holdings
Afcom Holdings claims to be capable of managing hazardous cargo. This is a highly regulated field that necessitates approvals from the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) and strict compliance with international safety standards.
The company offers supply chain solutions to a wide array of customers, including e-commerce marketplaces, direct-to-consumer e-tailers, and enterprises and SMEs across various sectors such as FMCG, consumer durables, consumer electronics, lifestyle, retail, automotive, and manufacturing.
On September 24, 2021, the company formed a partnership with the Air Logistics Group, part of the World Freight Company, which is a global leader in the cargo sales and service sector. This group acts as the company's GSSA in the Far Eastern countries. Additionally, on October 13, 2022, the company entered into an agreement with Taylor Logistics Private Limited, a member of the TTK Group, to serve as its GSSA in India.
Afcom Holdings has seen a consistent increase in its revenue from operations, rising from Rs 13.89 crore in FY21 to Rs 48.27 crore in FY22 and further to Rs 84.14 crore in FY23.
P Karthik Iyer Parasuraman, a member of Afcom Holdings' Promoter Group, is currently involved in legal proceedings with regulatory bodies including the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), the Stock Exchange, and the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI).
There are outstanding legal proceedings against the company. Any adverse judgements in these cases could negatively affect the company’s business.
Afcom Holdings relies heavily on its top five customers for its revenue from operations. These customers accounted for 98.71%, 75.99%, 84.32%, and 100% of the company’s revenues for the periods ending February 29, 2024, and the fiscal years ending March 31, 2023, March 31, 2022, and March 31, 2021, respectively. Any loss or downturn in business from any of these key clients could impact the company's revenue streams and profitability.
Afcom Holdings is currently engaged in several legal proceedings. Any unfavourable outcome in any of these cases could have a negative impact on the company's business operations.
The company has total indebtedness of Rs 15.47 crore in debts as on February 29, 2024. Any inability to service or repay these debts could negatively impact the company’s business prospects.
The company has experienced negative cash flow in the past. Any repeat of that in the future could hurt the company’s business operations.
