MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

OVERVIEW

 

“Maintain calmness and stability With Growth with Profitability Despite Turbulence and Volatility”.

 

Adaptability and change management were buzzwords of an earlier decade. Unpredictability was the running theme of the first decade of the present millennium -- more so for year 2010.

 

Emerging from the shadows of the 2008 meltdown, the economy’s journey to the end of the decade was a sprint. The Indian economy was on firmer ground compared to the US, Japanese or European economies. The stimulus package ushered in by the Government of India led to a robust domestic economic performance. While developed economies that shrunk in 2009 marginally recovered in 2010, India registered a robust growth of 7.7%. However, valid concerns on overall inflation triggered by stagflation in food prices and emerging food crisis in the region and the geo-political situation in the Middle East are major dampeners. The overall demand for flexibles in India grew by 15 – 17% with severe competitive pressures. Despite these challenges, the company performed very well.

 

In 2010, its Platinum Jubilee year, Net External Sales were INR 7040.1 millions against INR 5776.9 millions for the previous year, registering a growth of 21.9% in value and 15% in volume terms. Strong domestic demand, gains in operating efficiencies and overall push for growth helped achieve the strong growth in 2010.

 

Profit from ordinary activities before tax was INR 585.5 millions (INR 495.7 millions for 2009), - a growth of 18.1%. Exceptional income for 2010 of INR 122.8 millions included net gain realized from sale of Nagpur factory assets of INR 139.8 millions in Q1 -2010 and an expense of INR 17.0 millions towards the Voluntary Retirement Scheme (VRS) at Hyderabad. Current tax for 2010 includes INR 28.6 millions relating to the above exceptional income. Other extraordinary income (net of tax) of INR 30.5 millions pertains to partial settlement of Insurance claim for loss suffered because of fire at Thane and reversal of earlier repairs provision for repairs to machinery at Thane damaged in 2005.

 

Net profit after extraordinary items and tax for Y-2010 was INR 481.2 millions (INR 373.8 millions for Y-2009). The basic and diluted earnings per share including extraordinary and exceptional items rose to INR 7.68 (INR 5.96 for Y-2009) and stood at INR 5.60 excluding extraordinary and exceptional items.

 

FINANCIAL OVERVIEW

 

Sales

 

Gross sales for Y 2010 was INR 7613.3 millions (INR 6179.6 millions for Y 2009). As already mentioned, Net sales at INR 7040.1 millions represented an increase of 21.9% over Y 2009. Volumes grew from 28726 tons in Y 2009 to 33056 tons in Y 2010 - a growth of 15.1%. The Volume growth in 2010 in the core flexibles business was a robust 17% in line with the market growth. During the year, unremunerative products in the Specialised Cartons Business were reduced impacting the overall volume growth.

 

Other Income

 

Other income was INR 83.2 millions against INR 91.1 millions for Y 2009. It included INR 16.3 millions of Dividend from Mutual Funds , INR 1.1 millions from sale of fixed assets, INR 3.2 millions of sales and purchase tax refunds and the rest from mainly sale of scrap.

 

Raw Material

 

Input costs rose sharply from 66.2% to 70.5% in Y 2010. Prices of most of the input materials were volatile but moved in a narrow band except for PET Films and Paper. PET film prices increased by more than 150%. Diversion of thin films to higher value added thick films for electronics industry; postponement of capacity additions in 2009 consequent to the global melt down in 2008 coupled with closure old and unviable plants in Europe resulted in a serious shortage of PET firms. Price of films rose very steeply from April 2010 but the customers were unwilling to adjust laminate prices immediately leading to large, unprecedented cost price lag.

 

Prices of a few other key raw materials – especially dyes and pigments , crude based solvents, waxes and some specialty grades of polymer resins also went up during the second half of 2010, primarily due to strong revival in demand and delay in revival of plants which closed down in 2009. Prices of inks, adhesives and solvents hardened in the third quarter.

 

While these factors were clear to all our customers, they were most reluctant to recognize the immediate and steep impact of these cost developments. As PET Film prices jumped every month steeply (sometimes every fortnight), several increases were needed in a short period to merely maintain margins. Many of our customers resorted to reverse auctions, hard negotiations with the flexible packaging manufacturers using consultants, open bidding for specific volumes etc. Further, excess capacity in the flexible packaging industry which has been the bane for many years also contributed to inadequate recovery of input costs.

 

Judicious use of raw materials, buying forward, hedging and entering into contracts fairly early in the up moving cycle helped to contain the situation to a certain extent.

 

Operations

 

During the year, a major re-orientation of the planning and review systems for day to day operations have been put in place. The focus on sweating the assets was enhanced. They have been able to achieve new benchmarks in asset utilization and unlocking of capacity through de-bottlenecking, closer coordination between the various elements of the supply chain and inventory controls. Focus has been placed on further improving the operating efficiencies and ‘forecasting reliability’. Expanding supplier base for critical items, introduction of alternate materials, improving equipment reliability through major overhauls have been completed in different facets of operations. Two of the major plants – Rudrapur and Hyderabad are getting ready to induct new machines to augment capacities. Technology rationalization across sites is in progress. These measures are expected to bring in sharper focus on throughputs and efficiencies in the different plants.
