Acceptable Risk

Business dealings permissible with moderate risk of default

 

Status :

Satisfactory

 

 

Payment Behaviour :

Slow but correct

 

 

Litigation :

Clear

 

 

Comments :

Subject is an established company incorporated in the year 2000 and it is having satisfactory track. 

 

Flipkart has acquired the India operation unit of global ecommerce player eBay.in.

 

Flipkart has signed an exclusive agreement with eBay Inc. and as per the agreement, eBay, in exchange for an equity stake in Flipkart, will make a USA 500 million cash investment and sell its eBay.in business to Flipkart. (w.e.f. April 2017).

 

Further, the combination of eBay’s position as a leading global e-Commerce company and Flipkart’s market stature will allow us to accelerate and maximize the opportunity for both companies in India.

 

The company has sound financial base and healthy capital structure along with low debt balance sheet.

 

Rating takes into consideration strong managerial and financial support received to the company from its holding entity, continuous support to the company via equity infusion and comfortable liquidity position.

 

However, rating strength is partially offset due to losses incurred by the company from last few years of its business operations which has resulted into negative reserves position.

 

Trade relations are reported as fair. Business is active. Payments are slow but correct.

 

The company can be considered for business dealings at usual trade terms and conditions.

PRESS RELEASE:

 

FLIPKART ACQUIRES EBAY INDIA

 

April 13, 2017

 

Following the deal, Flipkart will own and operate the eBay.in business upon the close of the transaction.

 

Home-grown ecommerce player Flipkart has acquired the India operation unit of global ecommerce player eBay.in. Flipkart has signed an exclusive agreement with eBay Inc. (NASDAQ: EBAY) and as per the agreement, eBay, in exchange for an equity stake in Flipkart, will make a $500 million cash investment and sell its eBay.in business to Flipkart.

 

Following the deal, Flipkart will own and operate the eBay.in business upon the close of the transaction. eBay and Flipkart will jointly pursue cross-border trade opportunities to make eBay’s global inventory accessible to more India consumers, while eBay’s millions of active buyers globally will have access to more unique Indian inventory provided by Flipkart.

 

“The combination of eBay’s position as a leading global eCommerce company and Flipkart’s market stature will allow us to accelerate and maximize the opportunity for both companies in India,” said Devin Wenig, president and CEO of eBay Inc.

 

“This partnership between Flipkart and eBay is the coming together of two pioneering innovators who have disrupted commerce by applying technology. It bodes well for Indian and global customers, sellers and the wider eCommerce ecosystem. eBay.in has built a strong presence in India over the years and we hope to take it to greater heights as part of the Flipkart group,” said Binny Bansal, group CEO, Flipkart.

 

Upon the close of the transaction, which is expected later this year, Flipkart will acquire eBay’s buyers in India. eBay will remove the number of active buyers in India from its reporting during the quarter in which the transaction closes.

 

 


SELLING LOCAL UNIT TO FLIPKART, EBAY BULLISH ON INDIA

 

April 22, 2017

 

The e-commerce company eBay is planning to close the sale of its India unit to Flipkart, a deal which saw the US e-commerce giant investing $500 million for a minority stake in the Indian company, in the third quarter of 2017.

The company says it remains bullish about winning the market through its partnership with India's largest e-commerce player Flipkart. The deal will provide buyers on its platform access to Indian inventory and global sellers access to the growing base of buyers in India that shop online.

“We believe our $500 million investment along with the contribution of our eBay India business, significantly improves our competitive position in a strategically important market,” Scott Schenkel, CFO at eBay, told analysts in a call. “Upon deal close, we will no longer report active buyer GMV and related financials for eBay India,” he added.

While eBay does not expect the sale of its India unit to have GMV or financial impact on its 2017 earnings, the company said it would lose around four million active buyers. This also reveals eBay’s marginal play in India, which boasts of approximately 40 million active online buyers.

eBay was among the first entrants into India’s e-commerce market in 2004 through the purchase of Bazee.com but it failed to keep up with rivals such as Flipkart, Amazon, Myntra and Snapdeal. Moreover, the company under the leadership of CEO Devin Wenig is executing a global rejig with a plan to win back share in markets where it used to have a strong foothold.

India, though among the fastest growing e-commerce markets in the world, did not figure in that list. “The team at Flipkart are strong executors, with deep knowledge of the local market.

And we're committed to winning in India through this partnership,” said Wenig in a call with analysts over the company's first-quarter earnings. eBay’s sale of its India unit to Flipkart was part of a $1.4 billion investment round in the Indian company by Tencent, Microsoft and eBay ($500 million). While eBay will retain a stake in the Indian market via its holding in Flipkart, the local company will get a foothold in the customer-to-customer online retail market where Amazon is vying for leadership through Junglee. Analysts have pointed out that managing eBay’s India business could add pressure on Flipkart, which is battling Amazon and gearing up to take on China’s Alibaba. Further, with investors engaged in talks to sell smaller rival Snapdeal to Flipkart, there is a fear that the Indian e-commerce leader’s newfound momentum could be hindered by managing not one but two underperforming assets.
