OVERALL PERFOMANCE

 

P.T. EXCEL MEG INDO (P.T. EMI) was established in Jakarta in December 2006 with the authorized capital of US$ 500,000 entirely issued and paid up. The founding shareholders of the company are Mr. Deivasigamina Gautham Sigamani and Mr. Natarajan Murugadas both are businessmen of India. The company notary deed has been changed and in February 2008 the Mr. Natarajan Murugadas pulled out and replaced by Mr. Sarveswaran Karthikeyan of India and P.T. WAHGO INTERNASIONAL of Indonesia as new shareholders. The deed of amendment was made by Mr. Yudha Setyagraha Tedianto, SH., was approved by the Ministry of Law and Human Right in its Decision Letter No. AHU-AH.01.10-7375, dated March 11, 2008.

 

We observe the local partner P.T. WAHGO INTERNASIONAL is a private national company dealing trading and distribution of printing ink, telecommunication equipment and services and majority business stakes is controlled by Mr. Suresh Gobindram Vaswani and Mr. Natarajan Murugadas.

 

 

P.T. EMI has been in operating since January 2007 as a distributor, importer of agrochemicals, including pesticides. The company holds the agency for pesticides and agrochemicals which imported from India and using Kontas, Agrosiver, Rajatrin and other brands. The above merchandise products are largely marketed through distributors like P.T. TIRTAMAS MITRA NIAGA SENTOSA, C.V. ANUGERAH and through dealers/pesticides and agrochemical retailers stores in the country’s big cities, to farmers in West Java and also the state plantation companies P.T. PERKEBUNAN NUSANTARA IX (Sole, Central Java), P.T. PERKEBUNAN NUSANTARA X, XI and XII (all three in East Java) and to other plantation companies. The economic crisis and the extreme depreciation to the US$ and other hard foreign currencies have adversely affected P.T. EMI’s business because all its merchandise products are imported payable in US$/foreign exchange. The crisis has caused the sales prices of the company’s traded products to rise very highly. We observe the operation of P.T. EMI has been growing in the last one year.

 

Generally, demand for agrochemical products, pesticides, fungicides, herbicides, insecticides has tended to decline in the last five years being caused by several causes including the sluggish public purchasing power in line with high Rupiah depreciation against US$ in 2001 causing pesticides counterfeiting. The declining pesticides sales are also caused by the lack of expansion of plantation areas. There are few expansion of plantation areas having been realized from expansion of agricultural companies or new investment. There is indication that the declining plantation areas are shown in the declining investment interest on plantation sectors and the low realization of the development projects by plantation companies obtaining license. The decreasing investment on plantation sector is also caused by the declining prices of the agricultural commodities in international markets. However, since end 2001 the prices of agricultural commodities in international markets have started increasing.

 

The management of P.T. EMI is very reclusive towards outsiders and rejected to disclose its financial condition. However, we estimated that sales turnover of the company in 2007 amounted to Rp. 7.0 million. We estimated the total sales turnover as from January-June 2008 amounted to Rp. 4.5 billion and projected to be rising by 8% in 2009. The operation of the company in January-June 2008 is estimated to have gained a profit of at least Rp. 225 million with an estimated total networth of at least Rp. 5.0 billion. P.T. EMI has never been black listed by Bank Indonesia (Central Bank). The company management always pays its debts punctually to suppliers ranging from 1 to 3 months. The company is strongly backed up by financially strong and sound foreign partner of India behind it.

 

P.T. EMI's management is headed by Mr. Sarveswaran Karthikeyan (32), a businessman and professional manager with has 5 year experience in trading and distribution of agrochemicals products. Daily activity, he is assisted by Mr. Natarajan Murugadas (36) as a director. They have wide relations in private business circles within and outside the country. So far, we did not hear that the management of the company having been filed to Jakarta District Court for detrimental cases or involved in business malpractices. P.T. EXCEL MEG INDO is appraised to be good for business transaction. However, in view of the unstable economic condition in the country we recommend to treat prudently in extending a loan to the company.
