FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE:
Total income of
the Company declined by 28% during the financial year. Lower revenues also
resulted in a net loss after tax of Rs.8.336 millions.
OPERATIONS:
Due to recessionary
pressure in the financial year, the Company’s revenues as well as Earnings
Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) were adversely
affected. However, the Company continues to be cash positive during the
financial year.
The Company’s
events business suffered a down-turn during the year on account of the economic
slow-down that happened through financial year 2009-2010 and the consequent
reduction of spends by clients on events. As a result, the profitability of the
events business was severely affected. With the recovery in advertising
imminent, the team is confident of a recovery in financial year 2010-2011.
The Company’s
focus on promotions and “owned-IPR” events continues. During the year, the
Company launched a new property – Design Warz. With this, the Company now has a
portfolio of 6 owned IPR events. In financial year 2010-2011, the Company
proposes to launch 2 new properties. The promotions space has fared very well
as clients spent more on promotions rather than events in financial year
2009-2010. The Company believes that the growth of the promotions space will
continue in the years to come.
