Key finding: Over the past three years, revenue has increased at a CAGR of roughly 9.0%, while EBITDA margin has significantly increased from 17.6% to 20.3%, indicating increased operational efficiency. Due mostly to increased revenue contributions from genecology and IVF services, net profit increased by 108.5% in FY 2081/82 compared to FY 2079/80. Due to partial capacity expansion and increased patient throughput, the company's Q2 FY 2082/83 earnings (NPR 234 million PAT) are very impressive, annualizing to over NPR 468 million.

Capital structure improvement: After a large equity infusion (share capital increased from NPR 324 million to NPR 583 million), the debt-to-equity ratio significantly improved in FY 2081/82. In FY 2081/82, total equity rose by 79%, greatly reducing the balance sheet's leverage. To finance the hospital development, a noteworthy new project loan of NPR 1,196 million (Q2 FY 2082/83) has been raised. The primary goal of the upcoming IPO's proceeds is to partially reduce this expansion-related debt.

Over the course of three years (FY 2079/80 to FY 2081/82), the company invested NPR 1,458 million in fixed assets, mostly to finance the construction of its new building. This represents a considerable CAPEX cycle. The hospital's ability to finance its daily operations on its own is demonstrated by the positive operating cash flows. Due to significant investment activity, free cash flow has been negative; this is anticipated to change when the new facility operates and revenue levels rise.

Valuation Methodology & Cost of Capital

Valuation Framework

The Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) methodology, which is based on the Free Cash Flow to the Firm (FCFF) model, is used to determine Norvic International Hospital's intrinsic value per share. The enterprise value of the company is calculated by adding a terminal value that represents cash flows beyond the forecast horizon to the present value of predicted FCFFs during a six-year explicit forecast period (FY 2025/26–FY 2030/31). Next, net debt is subtracted and divided by the total number of outstanding shares to determine the equity value per share.

FCFF Formula: FCFF = EBITDA × (1 − t) + Depreciation × t − CAPEX – ΔNWC

Beta Derivation Methodology

The estimation of beta was done in two steps. Initially, a peer group of NEPSE-listed companies with paid-up capital ranging from NPR 950 million to NPR 1.1 billion yielded an industry unlevered beta of 0.91. Five-year weekly levered betas, as well as the corresponding debt-to-equity ratios and effective tax rates, served as the basis for the estimation. Due to the lack of comparable publicly listed hospitals in Nepal, companies with equivalent paid-up capital were chosen as a proxy.

Using Norvic's own capital structure (D/E ratio of 0.50 as of Q2 FY 2082/83), the unlevered beta was then re-levered to provide a levered beta of 1.25. After that, a final adjusted beta of 1.17 was obtained.

Use of IPO Proceeds

The primary goal of the net funds from the public offering is to lower the company's debt commitments related to the ongoing hospital expansion project. Loans from Nepal Infrastructure Bank, Laxmi Sunrise Bank, and NMB Bank have provided between 75–80% of the funding for the expansion; internal equity has provided the remaining amount. In addition to lowering interest expenses, repaying these project loans will strengthen the balance sheet, increase liquidity, and boost shareholders' long-term return on equity.

Conclusion

As it gets ready to enter the public capital market using the book-building method, a pricing strategy that is still in its infancy but is gaining acceptance in Nepal's capital market landscape, Norvic International Hospital and Medical College Limited (NIHL) offers an attractive investment opportunity. The hospital's valuation, which has a base case intrinsic value of NPR 472 per share and a scenario-weighted average of NPR ~500, is backed by more than thirty years of operational excellence, a strong brand in tertiary healthcare, improving EBITDA margins (17.6% to 20.3% over the last three fiscal years), a strong BBB credit rating from ICRA Nepal, and a near-term capacity expansion from 150 to 275 beds, which is anticipated to significantly increase in revenue and cash flow. The primary purpose of the IPO proceeds is to pay off debt, which will significantly improve the company's balance sheet and future shareholder returns.

Precedent: Book-Building IPOs in Nepal's Capital Market

Only two other businesses on the Nepal Stock Exchange (NEPSE), Sarbottam Cement Limited (SARBTM) and Reliance Spinning Mills Limited (RSML), had used the book-building technique before Norvic's proposed IPO. Investors assessing Norvic's upcoming offering can learn valuable lessons from their post-IPO trajectories.

Sarbottam Cement Limited (SARBTM) — Nepal’s First Book-Building IPO

In November 2023 (Mangsir 2080 BS), Sarbottam Cement Limited became the first firm in Nepal to offer an IPO using the book-building approach, making history. According to SEBON regulations, the general public was given shares at NPR 360.90, a statutory 10% discount to the Qualified Institutional Investor (QII) cut-off price of NPR 401 per share. The corporation issued 6,000,000 shares, representing 12.9033% of its paid-up capital of NPR 4.65 billion, of which 40% were given to QIIs and the other 60% to the general public, residents, workers, and international migrants. Sarbottam Cement received a BBB+ issuer rating from ICRA Nepal, indicating a stronger credit profile than Norvic's present BBB rating.

Based on the then-current NEPSE rule of up to three times the audited net worth per share, SARBTM's opening price range was set at NPR 185.36 to NPR 556.08 upon its listing on NEPSE on March 18, 2024. The stock promptly rose in spite of this limited opening range, finishing at NPR 611.60 and reaching the 10% positive circuit within minutes of trading on the first day. The stock achieved an all-time high of NPR 1,083 just 10 days after listing on March 28, 2024, a premium of over 200% over the IPO price of NPR 360.90, demonstrating the rapid and persistent market enthusiasm. With a market capitalisation of roughly NPR 43.4 billion, SARBTM is trading in the area of NPR 880–900 as per the latest trading data, comfortably above the IPO price. Sarbottam's book-building IPO produced strong, sustained secondary market returns for its investors, as evidenced by the stock's 52-week range of NPR 700–1,048 and its 180-day volume-weighted average price (VWAP) of roughly NPR 907. This validates the book-building methodology as an efficient price discovery tool in the Nepali context.

Reliance Spinning Mills Limited (RSML) — Nepal’s Second Book-Building IPO

With an annual export portfolio of almost USD 50 million, Reliance Spinning Mills Limited, one of Nepal's biggest yarn producers, became the second company in Nepal to get public capital using the book-building process. During the QII phase, which took place in Magh 2080 BS (January/February 2024), institutional investors were given 40% of the whole issue (770,640 shares) at a cut-off price of NPR 912 per share. With a minimum application fee of NPR 41,040 for 50 shares, the general public IPO price was set at NPR 820.80 per share (10% less than the cut-off price). The company has a CARE-NP A- credit rating, which denotes low credit risk and sufficient safety. However, legal issues over valuation methods and a writ case filed by the company at the Patan High Court caused the IPO process to be severely delayed by more than a year.

Despite controversy at the start, RSML's secondary market performance has been the most remarkable of any NEPSE-listed stock in recent memory. NEPSE simultaneously changed its listing price regulation when shares were listed on February 16, 2026, substituting "up to three times the face value" for the "up to three times net worth per share" calculation. Retail investors suffered immediate paper losses on listing day as a result of RSML's opening price range being limited to just NPR 100 to NPR 300, which is significantly less than the IPO purchase price of NPR 820.80. Investor confidence in the book-building system is undermined by this updated rule, which has drawn widespread criticism from market analysts and stock market players. After that, the stock quickly gained momentum, reaching an all-time high of NPR 5,049 on April 13, 2026. This represents a gain of more than 515% from the listing-day starting price and roughly 515% from the general public IPO price. One of the most valuable manufacturing sector companies on NEPSE, RSML was trading at NPR 4,000 as of the most recent trading session (April 28, 2026), with a total market capitalization of over NPR 76 billion. The 180-day VWAP was NPR 4,104.

Key Takeaways and Investment Perspective

Sarbottam Cement and Reliance Spinning Mills' post-listing results set a clear precedent: even though short-term secondary market performance is impacted by regulatory pricing mechanisms at the time of listing, fundamentally sound businesses that obtain public capital through the book-building method on NEPSE can produce significant long-term returns for investors. Sarbottam Cement has maintained a market price far above its IPO issue price, indicating ongoing confidence in its brand and operational profile, and has rewarded investors with substantial instant gains. Despite the controversy surrounding its listing-day starting price ceiling, Reliance Spinning Mills eventually produced remarkable returns, demonstrating the quality of the underlying business and the institutional validation ingrained in the book-building process.

As the potential third book-building IPO on NEPSE, Norvic International Hospital enters the market with several clear advantages, including a unique industry (healthcare, a first in the NEPSE book-building space), more than 30 years of operational excellence, growing margins, a catalyst for near-term capacity expansion, and a cautious DCF-driven valuation methodology. A strong analytical anchor for pricing during the QII bidding process is provided by the intrinsic value range of NPR 368-656 (with a base case of NPR ~472 and a weighted average of NPR ~500). When evaluating Norvic's impending issuance, investors and institutional participants are urged to take into account both the core characteristics of the company and the lessons learned from SARBTM and RSML, especially the significance of a medium-to-long-term investment horizon.
