ANNUAL PERFORMANCE:

 

This year, at Rs. 49350.000 millions, the total  income of the company has exceeded US $ one billion, a 52.6% increase  over last years income of Rs. 32350.000 millions.

 

Thermaxs energy business comprising Boiler and Heater, Power and Cooling and Heating contributed 77.3% of its income while the environment  business comprising Air Pollution Control, Chemicals, along with Water and Wastewater Solutions accounted for the remaining 22.7%.

 

In terms of profitability, the company had an EBITDA of 11.6% (12.1%  last year). The variation has been due to the rising cost of raw materials, higher share of Power EPC business and the acceptance of certain strategic orders at lower margins.

 

The company’s performance during fiscal 2010- 11 straddled two distinctly dissimilar phases in the economic environment – a first half of robust growth followed by six months of economic uncertainties. While the first phase saw the continuing surge in their order finalisation, the latter six months saw credit drying up due to high interest rates, resulting in a slowing down of orders. Due to the slow-down in new orders in the last two quarters of 2010-11, the company’s performance next year is likely to be subdued. However, being positioned in the crucial areas of energy and environment, with the continuing vibrancy of the national economy, the medium to long term outlook for the company is positive.

 

Profit before tax and extraordinary items was also higher at Rs. 5730.000 millions as compared to Rs. 3919.000 millions in the previous year. Profit after tax and extraordinary items was at Rs. 38240.000 millions compared to Rs. 1414.000 millions in the previous year (after providing for extraordinary item of Rs. 1149.000 millions). Earnings per share (EPS) rose to Rs. 32.09 from Rs. 11.87 (after extraordinary item)in 2009-10.

 

Order booking for the year was Rs. 53180.000 millions against Rs. 57940.000 millions, last year. The company completed the year with an order backlog of Rs. 56050.000 millions as against Rs. 53810.000 millions in the previous year.

 

During the year, exports, including deemed exports, were higher at Rs. 10659.000 millions from Rs. 6565.000 millions last year, an increase of 62.4%.

 

The consolidated total income of the Thermax Group was Rs. 53950.000 millions (Rs. 34222.000 millions, previous year) recording a 58% increase. Income from international business including deemed exports was up 74% to Rs. 12505.000 millions from Rs. 7204.000 millions. The Group registered a profit before tax of Rs. 5737.000 millions (Rs. 4004.000 millions, previous year). Profit after tax and extraordinary items and minority interest was Rs. 3817.000 millions for the year. Consequently, earnings per share (EPS) also increased to Rs. 32.03 (Rs. 12.11 after extraordinary item, previous year).

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

OVERVIEW:

 

The year gone by witnessed recovery and gradual growth in most markets, With the financial crisis in the developing world firmly behind them, most countries are now reevaluating the stimulus packages they had introduced during the crisis. Countries that curtailed their stimulus packages have had a mixed experience, some experiencing continuing unprecedented levels of unemployment and some yet to see consumer demand revive. Markets remained volatile due to diverse developments over which governments and central banks appear to have little control — the sovereign debt crisis in the Euro zone, a worrying fiscal future for the US, sharp rise in inflation in emerging economies. The year ended with political unrest in northern Africa which quickly gained momentum and spread across to parts of the Middle East too.

 

India’s (3DP grew 8.6%, spearheaded by sectors like manufacturing, construction, transportation, real estate, trade, communication and sustained by the agricultural sector that grew by 5.4%. As per the latest lIP indices, manufacturing clocked an impressive 10% growth during the Apr-Nov 2010 period but later slowed, with the March figures at just 3.2%.

 

The last financial year also saw India emerging as the world’s second largest investor in the infrastructure segment, with the power sector claiming the largest share of this investment, followed by the transportation sector. However, the power demand-supply indices show a deficit of over 10% on peak power and 8-9% at base load level and these were compounded by the forecast that the Eleventh Five Year Plan is likely to fall short f the original target by about 25,000 MW The increase in general interest rates declared in the last financial year, and the six revisions by RBI added to the hurdles facing greenfield projects. Specifically, it affected the power sector projects where the domestic commercial banks could soon hit their sectoral lending limits. Though investment in the sector has seen good growth, it is constrained by the inability of the States to reform their distribution businesses that continue to run at losses.

 

Another downside of the growth story has been the unhealthy inflation and a growing current account deficit (CAD), which stood at 7% and 3% of GDP, respectively. With perceptible uncertainty in many of the large export markets, the situation is challenging. However, there are plans to aggressively promote the export of high value products that have a strong manufacturing base, such as engineering goods, to tilt the balance of payment in India’s favour.

 

India’s commitments to the international community at Cancun this year have placed certain obligations on it in terms of energy efficiency, GHG emission abatement and boosting renewable power. The opportunities coming from the National Action Plan on Climate Change (NAPCC) should present wide ranging opportunities in the coming years to companies operating in the field of energy and environment.

 

Rural infrastructure development focusing on basic water and sanitation facilities in villages across India shall open new avenues in water and wastewater management. An inclusive national budget looks promising for social sector areas like health, education and self-help groups for women. The opportunities to industry from these sectors are also extremely large and can open altogether new avenues.

 

With India slated to grow at about 8% annually, prospects for the energy and environment sector continue to be bright.

 

 

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS:

 

The company passed a historic milestone in 2010-11 – a billion dollars in revenues, generating a total income of Rs.49350.000 millions and a profit after tax of Rs.3820.000 millions. Exports, including deemed exports, contributed 21.6% of the total income.

 

The company’s gains in booking new orders in first half of fiscal 2010-11 were offset by the uncertain economic environment in the second half which resulted in a slowing down of orders.

 

Growing three-fold in the last five years, Thermax continued to contribute to the energy and environment sectors of India, poised for a vibrant phase of growth and development. During 2010-11, the company emerged as a key player in the national effort to exploit the potential of solar thermal business. It introduced hybrid systems that blended its thermal expertise with solar concentrator technology for cooling, hearing, power and cooking applications at hotels, industrial plants and educational institutions.

 

The Innovation Council continued to guide the company to create a nurturing environment for innovations. Some of the key initiatives include solar cooling using triple effect absorption chillers, a solar thermal project for rural electrification, and the successful registration of an industrial programme under CDM with the UNFCCC (United Nations Framework Convention for Climate Change). A portal for capturing innovative ideas from employees across the board was also established during the year.

 

The company’s Water and Waste Solutions business continued to support the national power sector providing raw water and effluent treatment for public and private sector companies. This business is also Delhi Metro’s partner for water management across its 144 km route, providing over 100 plus water and sewage treatment systems — filters, softeners, RO plants and compact wastewater plants.

 

The company has been strategically focusing on increasing its revenue through clean technology products and systems. Accordingly, all business divisions are now mandated to track the share of their respective green and carbon neutral stream of revenues.

 

Over the years, Thermax has supplied systems with an installed capacity of 5037 MW of green energy. Its commissioned bagasse fired boilers have an installed capacity of 1593 MW. Thermax’s absorption chillers at client sites can provide 1.3 million tons of environment friendly chilling. The treatment plants supplied by Thermax cumulatively treat 1679 million litres per day of water and waste water.

 

During the year, the company expanded its operational excellence initiatives to encompass many more processes and work centres. These projects focus on reducing the cost of poor quality, improving on -time performance and customer satisfaction. Thermax has also recalibrated its customer focus programme, organizing a series of meets for face-to-face sessions with clients in different parts of the country. Feedback from these dialogues are put to use for product development and quality improvement.

 

In today’s open market regime, the company faces competition from international players in all its business segments. Through technology partnerships, nurturing of innovation and indigenous R and D, and through improved products, it is preparing to meet the challenges posed by competition. In the face of global competition, especially from China in the power sector, the company believes that a level playing field needs to be established for Indian manufacturers through appropriate government policies.
