Small Caps: Potential to create wealth and generate alpha
PGIM India Small Cap Fund Source: AceMF, PGIM India. Small Cap Funds Composite is an equal weighted index of regular plans of all Small Cap funds in the industry with an Aum of atleast 500 crores as of April 2021. Past performance may or may not be sustained in future and should not be used as a basis for comparison with other investments.
• Actively managed funds within the Small Cap space have delivered alpha in the past
• Due to the under-researched nature of the Small Cap segment, opportunity for stock picking continues to exist • Historically, actively managed funds have also been
able to contain downside in tough times, compared to the Small Cap index

Small Caps: Can take meaningful exposure to sectors whereLarge Caps have less presence
• Within the Small Cap segment there are many sectors where larger companies don’t have a significant presence
• This provides a style diversification opportunity to investors
• Examples of such industries could be chemicals, textiles, paper, sugar, home improvement businesses, barring a few mid caps the overall auto ancillary businesses, construction, to name some
• Small Caps provide some unique opportunities:- Market share gain from established players e.g.
Kajaria Ceramics- Ability to scale rapidly e.g. Bajaj Finance- Niche business / emerging business – e.g Metropolis-20.42

Small Caps: Niche or Emerging Business and Opportunities.How We Assess them?
While analyzing any secular opportunities in emerging businesses, we try and assess mainly three things, among other factors:
• The size of the overall opportunity which is scalable and sustainable over long term (e.g., online coaching industry may not be a sustainable trend, once school reopens)
• Enough listed players to play the theme, where we are reasonably confident of strong execution. (e.g., e-commerce industry in India doesn’t have listed players)
• Visible triggers and catalyst which can lead to above average growth (e.g., urbanization theme in India can see a reversal or atleast a slowdown post Covid, for various factors)

Small Caps: Niche or Emerging Business and Opportunities.How We Assess them? (Cont’d)
• The diagnostic industry has emerged as an attractive play in India's growing healthcare sector and is one of the fastest growing services in the country.
• There is a rising trend of preventive testing in India and this trend has accelerated post Covid and has significant potential for rising penetration.
• The Indian diagnostic industry is highly fragmented and under-penetrated despite the presence of over 1 lakh labs. Diagnostic chains command ~16% market share.
• The 4 major players (Dr Lal PathLabs, Metropolis Healthcare SRL Diagnostics and Thyrocare Technologies have a share of ~6%). So, there is a huge opportunity for national players to consolidate and for organic expansion.
• The domestic diagnostic industry is estimated at USD9bn (around INR 675bn) and is expected to grow at a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of ~10% over the next 5 years.
• India’s huge ageing population, rising income levels, focus on preventive and wellness spends, rise in chronic and lifestyle diseases, increasing market share for organized players and also rising health insurance penetration are all long-term structural triggers.

Small Caps: Under-researched and Under-owned
PGIM India Small Cap Fund
Source: Bloomberg. Data as on 5-May-2021.
• Proprietary research becomes important as one goes down the capitalization curve, as number of analyst tracking Small Cap is relatively less
• PGIM India has a proven track record in identifying bottom-up stock ideas, with an experienced research team
• Foreign institutional ownership reduces beyond top 100 stocks
• As companies grow their revenue and profitability in the long run, the interest from institutional investor tends to rise, leading to potential re-rating
(The ownership data also includes any ADR/GDR)

Small Caps: Comfortable Leverage and Cashflows
PGIM India Small Cap Fund
Source: Spark Capital, Capitalline. Large, mid and Small Cap companies which are part of S&P BSE 500 index (ex-financials) have been considered for above analysis.
• Financial leverage for Small Caps as a segment has been going down
• This leads to confidence in resilience of smaller companies to see through this difficult economic cycle
• Smaller companies witnessed resilient operating cashflow in FY20 even though revenue declined marginally
• As the economic recovery picks up pace in subsequent years, Small Caps can be beneficiary of stronger operating leverage
