LOCAL AGENCY FURTHER INFORMATION

 

Background

 

Subject is a 100 year old Company with a strong presence in Tea and Rubber Plantations. It is the largest producer of Natural Rubber in India and the second largest single producer of Tea in South India.

 

The Companies operations are spread over 24 estates, 6 rubber factories and 12 tea factories along with a blending and processing unit in Coimbatore for Tea. The Company cultivates about 13,389 Ha. of land. In addition to the main crops of Tea and Rubber, the Company also cultivates pineapple and banana in these areas as intercrops. With a production of about 10000 tonnes of Rubber, 18500 tonnes of tea and 2500 tonnes of pineapple, HML is South India's largest agriculture operator.

 

The Projects division of the Company takes up civil and electrical projects and is presently handling some prestigious projects in the state of Kerala. The Company also has a Plant Tissue Culture unit in Surianalle in the High Range, which essentially caters to the internal needs.

 

As a part of insulating the Company's main products namely Tea and Rubber from the commodity price cycle and ensure robust performance in the future years and also to sustain the stake holders interest, the Company has embarked upon a series of initiatives, which would definitely yield results in the years to come.

 

Performance

 

The Company achieved a turnover of Rs.3345.400 millions for the financial year  (Previous year - Rs.2924.500 millions). Despite wide fluctuations in the price of Rubber during the year, the average RSS IV price for the industry was Rs.14 per kilo higher than the previous year. The average HML Rubber price was Rs.127.75 as against Rs. 113.01 of the previous year. Tea industry experienced buoyancy after a long time. During the year, the auction averages registered an upward movement. HML Tea prices in Auction at Rs.85.38 per kilo was higher than Rs.69.27 per kilo of last year. The average price realization for Tea was Rs.89.01 per kilo (previous year Rs.74.80). The Company has made substantial progress in Bought Operations in Tea and Rubber which has contributed in improving the capacity utilisation of the factories. This has resulted in higher turnover and improved profitability. The Company's efforts in improving labour productivity through incentive schemes and reorganised work continued to yield positive results. The Company has made substantial investments in bringing larger areas under replanting in Rubber and infilling in Tea. Also, substantial improvements were made in upgrading the Tea and Rubber factories resulting in lowering the costs and improving the quality of the products. They believe these

investments would give us long term benefits.

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

TEA

 

World tea production during the calendar year 2009 at 3860 Million kgs. was marginally lower compared to 3864 Million Kgs., a decline of 4 Million kgs. While Kenya and Sri Lanka showed a drop in their production by over 9%, Indian production at 979 Million kgs. in 2009 is almost stagnant at the previous year level. This means that inventories in the supply chain are almost dry and any trigger in supply concerns may move the prices sharply.

 

In India, North regions reported an incremental crop of 2.8 Million kgs.. South Indian crop was lower by 1 Million kg. during 2009 as compared to previous year. The first six months of the current calendar year 2010 shows the tea production on the rise and is 5.1 Million kgs. Higher than in 2009. On the export front. South Indian Tea exports were higher by 11.7 Million kgs. during the period Jan - Jun

2010.

 

The average price realization in South India during the first six months of 2010 was Rs. 12.28 per kg lower than 2009, while it was down by Rs. 4.60 per kg. on an all India basis.

 

Outlook

 

Tea production during 2010 would be in line with the 2009 production. However, the prices which have so far have shown a decline, is expected to improve in the second half. HML has modernized its tea factories in Wallardie, Arrapetta and Chundale which produce tea that fetch remunerative prices. Various cost reduction initiatives have been initiated at the factories which would result in lower conversion costs. Flexibility has also been built into the manufacturing process to switch over between CTC and Orthodox production at a very short notice. Large areas have been taken up for infilling thus increasing the bush stand per hectare. Soil Conservation and Water Management initiatives would result in HML bettering its production in the years to come.

 

RUBBER

 

Global warming has had an impact on the world natural rubber production in 2009 resulting in production being down by 4.2%. While production in Thailand, Vietnam and China increased, the output in Indonesia, Malaysia and India declined. Overall consumption has also been low by 7.7%, while there has been a marginal increase in the consumption in India.

 

The rubber prices have been bullish during the year and RSS IV touched a high of Rs. 156 per kg. on March 31, 2010. The prices have since continued to increase and on 28th August stood at a high of Rs.171.

 

Continued focus on quality and optimum product mix such as manufacturing Pale Latex Crepe etc and strategic exports enabled the Company to fetch premium in the market for its products. The premium for the Company's rubber over RSS IV grades is one of the highest in recent times. This year the Company exported the highest quantity of rubber. The modernizing of the factories carried out during the year should ensure that the Company maintains the leadership for different grades of rubber produced.

 

Outlook

 

Preliminary studies by the Rubber Research Institute of India and feedback from International Study group also indicate Global warming is expected to have a negative impact on future production.

 

The Indian Auto sector's performance has been good and with the general increase in domestic consumption, the natural rubber prices are expected to be bullish for the year. The Company's focus on quality and the initiatives for increasing the production levels further should lead to better performance in future. Company's own production levels would remain flat as currently the Company is going for massive replanting exercise that would start producing results in 2-3 year's time and would make HML the highest land productivity in the Rubber Plantation Sector.

 

OPPORTUNITIES AND THREATS

 

At the expected price levels of Tea and Rubber and considering the investments made in Replanting and Infilling in Rubber and Tea, the Company will be better placed to perform well. The investments made in the Fruits, Spices and Other crops segment (FSO) has started yielding results. Also, the Company has bagged some prestigious Engineering projects which would pave the way to insulate the Company against the volatile commodity prices of Tea and Rubber. While there may be odd quarters showing negative profitability. Management is confident of showing incrementally better results in the coming years.
