REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
The overall turnover of the
Company registered a 10.96% while Net Profit rose by 1716%.
During the year the thrust
was on the expansion of Company's Multiplex business, the details of which are
mentioned elsewhere in this Report.
BUSINESS
OUTLOOK 2005-2006
Overall:
The rise in the number of multiplexes and growth in digital cinemas are
the two main criteria expected to drive the market in the coming years. Home
video market comprising of DVDs/VCDs sell through and other future formats is
expected to considerably revolutionise the market.
The
rising number of Indian overseas population will continue to boost the demand
for overseas prints and collection for
the Indian producers. The advent of digital delivery, though reflecting a
modest growth will be the answer to piracy in the country. In light of takeover
by the Reliance group, the Company is repositioning itself for growth in its
thrust areas of multiplexes and has further plans to launch new business
activities like film distribution in domestic and overseas market, television
software and animation films and contents at international levels. The scenario on the existing
business is expected to be as follows:
Film
Processing: The Company's existing lab operations comply with
international quality standards.
The
Company's front end processing lab at Chennai in association with Vijaya Labs,
Chennai has commenced functioning since April 2005 and the Kolkatta lab is
expected to start in December 2005.
The
Company shall make all efforts to retain market leadership in this field of
business through ongoing technological improvement and upgradation.
Film
Exhibition Business: The Multiplex business at Wadala during the
year has shown a steady performance.
This
year saw the release of two IMAX DMR films namely "Robots" and Batman
Begins" . They intend to release
two more DMR films towards the end of 2005 viz., 'Charlie and the Chocolate
Factory" and "Harry Potter-The Goblet of Fire" distributed by
Warner brothers. IMAX DMR films have had successful runs at their theatre and
they expect the above mentioned films to be box office successes.
Last
year the Company launched an extensive school programme to reach out to various
schools in Mumbai in order to create awareness about the IMAX format and its
educational content. This programme was successful and during this year, the
programme will be continued and they expect to see higher attendance numbers.
The
Company is also currently negotiating to manage an IMAX flat screen cinema in
the North.
Due
to the release of a string of good films, this quarter ending June 2005 has
seen good results. Efforts are being made to increase footfalls in all their
theatres by effective marketing and promotions, online contesting and effective
programming. They are focusing on increasing food and beverage revenues and
advertising income. There has been an increase in ticket rates across their
properties, and they use the variable pricing option to maximize revenues. They
are aggressively working towards bringing down cost of operations. They are
also investing in training manpower to ensure delivery of quality service
across all their properties.
The
Imax Multiplex having entered its fourth year of operation is now attracting a
benefit of 75% exemption from entertainment tax.
The
Company has plans to open 22 more screens during the year across India viz.
MetroAdlabs (5 screens-Mumbai), Cineplex Adlabs (3 screens-Mangalore), Adlabs
(4 screens-lndore), Adlabs (3 screens+1 IMAX flat screen -Ghaziabad), Adlabs (3
screens-Ghaziabad), RDB Adlabs (3 screens-Kolkatta).
Film
Production: The year 2004-05 saw the release of "DEV"
by the Company's wholly owned
subsidiary
viz. Entertainment One (India) Limited, which won three awards viz. Filmfare
Critics
Award-2004,Award
for Best Film and also for Best Actress.The films under production are : Oil jo
BhiKahey, Apaharan, Marigold (International banner),Bluff Master and Darwaza
Band Rakho. The details on these projects are given in the Directors' Report of

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND
ANALYSIS
INDUSTRY STRUCTURE
The Indian film industry
considered to be the largest in the world, in terms of number of films
produced and released
continues to make its mark in terms of consolidation, realignment and
growth. Over 800 films are
released every year and the cumulative consumer spending on filmed
entertainment in India averages at approximately Rs.60 billion per annum. The
Hindi films segmentattracts 40-50% of the total consumer spending in India.
Though this segment is primarily unorganized, several developments in terms of
corporatisation and improved corporate governance has changed the face of the
industry.
The Indian film industry
during the year was largely impacted by growing number of multiplexes thus
enabling movie goers in urban India experience a new way of enjoying movies and
providing an incentive for low budget niche films and experimental cinema. The
effect was also seen in terms of decrease in average release time in theatres,
providing direct growth opportunity to home video business and growing revenues
from satellite and cable rights. The year also saw the digitalisation of cinema
which along with steps taken by some major producers to make their own
distribution arrangements has helped in checking piracy. Besides, the ever
increasing NRI population provided a steady platform not only to Indian film
producers who successfully tapped this home-starved population by making films
with cross-over themes but have also invested in Indian movies as producers.
Overall the year witnessed a steady growth and the industry is
expected to benefit further in the years to come on the back of a fast growing
economy and increasing disposable income

Segmentwise Analysis:
1. Film Processing:
The Company's film
processing business has been built around a strong working relation with
almost all big and small
production houses in India. As most of the large film banners are located in
Western India, the Company enjoys a sustained locational advantage. Keeping in
mind the dominance of regional-films in the Indian filmed entertainment market,
Adlabs has set up front end film processing laboratories in Chennai and
Kolkatta, the effect of which shall be visible in the Company's performance of
2005-06.
2. IMAX Dome and Multiplex
Theatre Operations:
The forward integration
into exhibition business has seen the Company consolidate this business by
setting up further multiplexes in Mumbai (HumaAdlabs) and Pune (GoldAdlabs).
The Company is currently operating 24 screens in Mumbai, Nasik and Pune. As
mentioned in the Directors' Report to the Members, the Company plans to open 22
more screens by March 2006.
The
Company intends to use the lease model for all future multiplex acquisitions.
Multiplexes shall be located in malls rather than standalone properties and
they plan to acquire dominant market share in each of the cities they plan to
enter similar to Mumbai.
The
year 2004-05 saw the successful release of DMR films like "Harry Potter
and the Prisoner of Azkaban",Spiderman 2" and Polar Express at the
Dome. Based on these successful releases the Company subsequently released
"ROBOTS" AND "BATMAN BEGINS" in the Dome theatre in DMR
Format. "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" and "Harry
Potter-The Goblet of Fire" are scheduled to release by the end of 2005.
The
extensive launch of school programmes to reach out to children and create
awareness of IMAX Dome concept by exhibiting edutainment films is an ongoing
process. Coupled with cost control measures and contribution from other streams
of income the Theatre segment is expected to post a steady performance.
BUSINESS
OUTLOOK 2005 - 2006
A
detailed discussion on the business outlook is included in the Directors'
Report to the Members.
OPPORTUNITIES
& THREATS
Opportunities:
While co-production treaties, rising demand for number of prints in
overseas market, rising share of regional films in .the Indian film market and
the increase in number of international films dubbed in Indian languages can
provide an opportunity to grow for the production and the processing and allied
services business; the organised retail boom, demand for quality theatre
complexes, better occupancy due to multiple screens, flexibility to decide on
screening schedule and finally effective cost management is expected to be the
growth driver for multiplex business. Besides the association with other
business groups for its processing and multiplex business shall enable the
company to derive infrastructure support while providing technical expertise
and support to the group projects.
Threats:
It is felt that there is possibility of saturation of
film processing revenues or the growth could be at a steady pace at current
levels. Anticipating this the Company has set front end labs at Chennai and
Kolkatta keeping in mind the dominance of regional films and tremendous
business opportunity. The rising number of entrants in multiplex business may
affect the established players. However the diversity of Company's services
substantially offsets any potential adverse impact on the Company's business.
Besides the pressure on margins due to the levy of entertainment tax after
expiry of the initial holiday period is expected to be countered with increase
in ticket prices and adding other revenue streams to multiplex business. The
risk of changes in Government regulations and tax policies across states could
affect the industry. Finally as the Company is entertainment dependent, any
downslides in the industry could directly impact the Company's performance.
RISK
MANAGEMENT
Obsolescence
risk: The Company makes investment in new premises, technology in line with
expected growth of its business. If this investment becomes obsolete or the
growth does not fructify, due to ever changing technology, Company's investment
could become obsolete. This risk is mitigated by effective planning, continuous
assessment of process and business requirement and cross deployment of
resources.
Competition
risk: With entry of new aggressive players in Company's multiplex business,
competition will intensify. To mitigate this risk, Company scans diligently for
locations before finalising any project for present and potential competitors
and tracking their strengths, weaknesses and strategies.
Operation
risk: This mainly implies risk from non performance of resources such as men,
machines or systems or effect of any external event. This is endemic to every
business. The Company has procedures in place to identify, control and measure
any adversities resulting from such risks based on management perception. Risk due to
manmade/natural disaster The physical facilities and infrastructure are insured
to cover
only loss that may arise on
account of insurable risks which as per management perception is
generally covered by
insurance companies and assets of the Company are exposed to risks to that
extent.
FIXED
ASSETS:
Leasehold Land, Building, Air conditioner Plant, Electrical installation, Plant & Machinery, Theatres & equipment, Furniture & Fixture, Vehicle etc.
AS
PER WEBSITE:
Adlabs Films
Ltd was founded by Mr.
Manmohan Shetty and Mr. Vasanji Mamania in 1978 to set up a motion picture
processing laboratory in Mumbai. The company initially catered to the ad film
market (hence the name "Adlabs"). The company has since evolved into
processing full-length feature films controlling 70% of the Western India
market.
Adlabs, today is a market leader in the Entertainment Industry. It has an
integrated business model covering the entire value chain from Film Production

up of a 518 seat IMAX® Dome theatre, (The largest Dome Theatre in the world)
along with Mumbai's first multiplex (4 screens and 1314 seats). In 2000, the company
also floated an IPO of 4.4 million equity shares at Rs.120/- per share
aggregating to Rs. 528 million. It was one of the first Film Companies to go
public. The trust in the company and its promoters was evident from the
public's response to the issue.
In 2005, The
Reliance Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group (Reliance - ADA Group) acquired a 50.16%
stake in Adlabs Films Limited for a price of Rs.3.6 billion, signifying the
entry of this diversified and professional conglomerate in the Media &
Entertainment Industry. In addition to Films (Exhibition, Production,
Processing & Distribution), the ADA Group has plans to expand its presence
across the Entertainment Value Chain ranging from Television to Radio and DTH.

Entertainment Space and have started taking steps in the direction of Film
Production, Production Services, Processing, Film Exhibition, Overseas Distribution

BUSINESS DIVISIONS
Film Processing: The Film Processing business has a fairly straightforward model wherein
the commercial risk is low but relationships with movie studio/ producers as
well as integrity of the processing laboratory count immensely, in view of
piracy and IPR related risks. The film processing business has grown at an
average of 19% over the last 5 years.
To keep up with the times and, - to offer a one-stop stop solution to its
clients, Adlabs picked up a minority 6% stake in Prime Focus (an animation and
special effects studio) at a cost of Rs. 46.6 million.
As Adlabs has established itself as the preferred provider of services and
adopts a unique working capital cycle dovetailed with the nuances of film
production, the incidence of bad debts have been few and far between. Adlabs
laboratories, located in Film City, Mumbai, have a total film processing
capacity of 20,000 feet per year. The company currently has an 80% captive
market share in the Film Processing business in Western India and has acquired
Vijaya Labs in Chennai, to increase its footprint in South India. Plans to
invest in a similar front end-processing laboratory in Kolkotta are also under
way.

Digital Cinema: Digital Cinema encompasses the production, delivery and projection of
full-length motion pictures, trailers, advertisements, and other audiovisuals
into "Cinema Quality" programmes to theatres using digital
technology. The digital cinema system uses a "store-and-forward"
concept to distribute motion pictures which have been digitized, compressed,
encrypted and delivered to theatres using either physical media distribution
(such as DVD-ROMS) or through other electronic transmission methods (such as
satellite).
Most movies in India are released only in the top 45 odd towns (called
"A" centers in movie parlance). The upcountry markets must wait their
turn as prints are "returned" from these "A" centers a few
weeks after the release. However, in the interim, the digital videodisc,
(pirated or otherwise) shows cash in on the audience in smaller towns. Adlabs
in a 50-50 JV with Mukta Arts (A listed movie production company) named Mukta
Adlabs Digital Exhibition Limited (MADEL) has introduced the digital
distribution concept since 2003. MADEL has till date covered 52 theatres and is
seeking to expand its footprint into several more Indian towns.
