MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OVERVIEW
Y 2009 began amidst severe global financial crisis induced
global economic recession. The economic environment in
Towards the later part of Y 2009, the economic stimulus and increased public expenditure, aided by a large domestic market, showed revival signs. Manufacturing and services sectors started bouncing back. The Government forecast for Y 2010 GDP growth was increased to 7%. However, amidst this, innovation soared and continues to be the biggest economic concern.
In this highly uncertain environment, the company achieved a significantly improved financial performance in 2009. While Net Sales declined by 5.6% compared to previous year, Operating Profit increased to INR 495 millions– a increase of 61% over Y2008 and the Profit after tax increased to INR 374 millionsas compared to INR 213 in the previous year.
The basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) for Y2009 was INR 5.96 as compared to INR 3.40 in the previous year. Dividend of Rs. 2 per share has been proposed, i.e., 10% higher than the previous year. In addition a Special Platinum Jubilee one time dividend of Re. 1.00 per share has also been proposed for Y2009. Hence the total dividend for 2009 is Rs. 3 per equity share.
Amidst the challenges faced in a continuously changing environment, the company continued to maintain its focus on implementation of strategic initiatives. Highlights for 2009 include:
• New levels of material efficiencies were achieved at some of our operations. The team is committed to carry forward the benefits of these initiatives in 2010.
• Project
• Reconstruction of Thane Plant was fully completed by the 3rd quarter of 2010. Machines and utilities were shifted from the old plant into the new premises with minimum disruption to operations. They now have a world class plant in Thane which envisions new benchmarks of operational excellence with special focus on servicing export customers.
Platinum Jubilee
Celebrations
Y 2010 is Platinum Jubilee year of PPL. By a very happy coincidence, Y 2010 is also the 90th anniversary of PPL’s parent company, Huhtamaki Oyj. It is evident that this has been achieved with the support of our valued customers, trusted partners and all stakeholders. PPL places on record its deep appreciation for their support. It is planned that this momentous occasion is celebrated with specific events organized for the stakeholders.
FINANCIAL OVERVIEW
Sales
Y2009 ended with Gross Sales of INR 6180 millions (Y2008 – INR 6748 Mn). Net Sales were INR 5777 Mn. Sales declined by 5.6% in value and 9.8% in tonnage compared to 2008. Slowdown in sales in the early part of Y2009 was primarily due to the economic slowdown. In addition ERP related black out period and teething issues impacted sales in Q4’2009. Exports reduced by 3.2%.
Other Income
Other Income in Y2009 was INR 79 millions compared to INR 102 millions for Y2008. Other income for Y2009 includes pro!t of INR 10.6 millions realised on sale of surplus !xed assets . Dividend Income from Mutual Funds contributed INR 12.9 Mn. The remaining INR 55.5 millions mainly represents sale of scrap.
Profitability
Expenditure
Total operating expense in Y2009 P and L statement, i.e., aggregate of manufacturing and operating expenses, personnel expenses, administration and sales expenses and depreciation and amortization expenses amounted to INR 1548 millions as compared to INR 1518 millions in Y2008. Overall expenses were kept in constant control. However, the 5.6% drop in sales resulted in expenses as a % of Sales at 26.8% as compared to 24.8% in Y2008. To analyse key elements
Manufacturing and operating expenses were at INR 416.8 millions as against INR 393.5 millions in the previous year. The increase was primarily on account of a 25% increase in repairs and maintenance costs mainly due to shifting of machines to the new plant at Thane. In spite of rising power tariffs across all locations with deteriorating quality of power supply necessitating increased use of expensive DG power, the power and fuel costs were maintained at same the levels as in the previous year.
Personnel expenses were at INR 493.3 millions as against INR
509.2 millions in Y 2008. Y 2008 included INR 13.9 millions spend towards
settlement of workers at
Administration and Sales expenses were contained at INR 329.3 millions compared to INR 331.5 millions in the previous year. This included a 6% decrease in selling and distribution expenses to INR 148 millions (2.6% of net sales) compared to INR 158 millions (2.4% of net sales) in the previous year mainly due to decrease in exports. Administration expenses were marginally higher INR 181.3 millions compared to INR 173 millions in the previous year. Major reason for increase in Administration expenses was primarily on account of write off of fixed assets of INR 14.6 millions due to Thane Plant reconstruction and a few idle and obsolete assets.
MARKET COMMENTARY
The 2nd half of 2009 has clearly demonstrated that the
Indian economy has survived the impact of the global financial crisis. Led by
strong domestic demand and relatively quick revival in economic activity in the
manufacturing and service sectors, the Indian economy grew despite all odds by
6% in 2009.
Role of Packaging in
Society
Packaging is essential for societal development. Packaging performs multiple roles, i.e., distribution, availability, product protection with optimal economic material usage, preservation, containment, confidence, convenience, information, promotion… A good package must strive to satisfy everyone’s needs.
Opportunities:
Organized Retail is gaining share – at present around 5% of retail sales and is expected to go to over 10% within the next 4 to 5 years – driving consumption.
Growth of high performance packaging is a must for reducing
wastage, improving availability thereby contributing to
Packaging in
There are opportunities for growing exports in the developed
markets and in the Asian region. International majors look to source their
packaging requirements globally and regionally and
