Aeroflex Industries Limited IPO Risks And Challenges

Investing in IPOs comes with its own set of risks and challenges. For Aeroflex Industries IPO, these are some of the major risks and challenges

  1. Risk of foreign currency transactions: Upto Jan, 31 2023, almost 80% of the total revenue of the company is export-oriented. Although the company closely follows their exposure to foreign currencies and selectively enters into hedging transactions in an attempt to reduce the risks of currency fluctuations, these activities are not always sufficient to protect us against incurring potential losses if currencies fluctuate significantly.
  2. Dependency on international suppliers for raw materials: The company’s competitiveness, costs and profitability depends on their ability to sustain stable and sufficient supply of raw materials. The company imports the majority of its stainless steel coils from international markets including China and Germany. Almost 47% of their raw material procurement was from outside India. Significant dependence on few suppliers without  any long term agreements may affect the availability of raw materials which could have an adverse impact on the company’s operations.
