MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW
 
The stabilization of the world economy along with a domestic GDP growth of 7.2% during 2009 - 10 saw improved demand conditions from all segments including polymers.  The Government partially rolled back the stimulus package by increasing excise duty by 2% which had marginal impact on demand growth.
 
The domestic Polystyrene market grew at 8.5%. The Company during the year started concentrating on high end markets where higher growth is envisaged in the coming years. Exports were low due to  slow  down  in European  countries  and also due to the Company's strategy of  exporting only  premium  grades and to those countries which give better net back. Demand revival was also seen in Specialty Polystyrene (SPS) business.  The domestic sales grew by 36% whereas the export sales grew by 48%.  The Company has plans to exploit the demand potential by adding further lines for SPS including master batches.
 
During  the  year  the Company developed several  new  grades  of  special additive  master batches  for  both domestic and  overseas  customers.  The Company also successfully established olefinic compounds for environment friendly lead acid batteries thus replacing imported grades. New range of High Gloss HIPS and Coloured FR HIPS was developed during the year for use in appliances and water filters both for domestic and export markets.
 
Extruded Polystyrene (XPS) plant became operational from August 2009 and has been stabilized. Commercial supplies have commenced and   market development is in progress. Grades using 50% CO2 have been developed as these are more environment friendly.
 
The Company established several grades of Extruded Polystyrene Board for insulation as well as cornices application. The Company is focusing its marketing efforts for XPS Boardnot only in the domestic market but also in the countries where insulation of buildings for energy conservation is mandatory. Distribution setup and sales force are being strengthened.
 
The increased installed capacity of 27700 TPA of Expandable Polystyrene (EPS) at Chennai plant was commissioned on June 1, 2010 after receiving all statutory approvals. Optimum capacity utilization is expected by October 2010. The Company's EPS product is already well established in the market.
 
The Company during the year implemented SAP ERP system. Training of all users is continuing. Once the system is stabilized  it  will  help  the Company  in  better  management of  inventories,  receivables  and  improve overall operational efficiencies.

 

OUTLOOK
 
Polystyrene (PS): The Polystyrene outlook is positive. Three Polystyrene applications are expected to grow exponentially in India in the coming years.
 
* Domestic Appliances
* Foamed food service ware
* Purified water filters.
 
Considering the growth in these applications the domestic Polystyrene market is estimated to grow @ 12% during the current year. To cater to  the increasing  demand  of high value premium PS grades like ESCR,  High  Gloss grades,  basic  resin for Noryl etc. it is proposed to revamp  one  of  the existing  PS lines to increase the production capacity of such grades from 48,000  TPA  to 72,000 TPA. This revamp is slated for completion by June, 2011.
 
Implementation of GST in April 2011 will help bring in efficiencies in distribution thus reducing logistics costs.
 
EPS:  The domestic market grew by about 18% during the year. Similar growth is expected in the current year. The domestic market for EPS continues to be good. The thrust areas for EPS market development continue to be:
 
* Buildings and Construction industry for providing insulation for roofs and walls, for wall panels and sandwich panels.
 
* Fish boxes and other cold chain requirements as EPS provides effective insulation properties for transportation of perishable goods.
 
*  EPS  pallets  which  are light  weight  and  economical  alternative  to conventional wooden pallets.
 
* Packaging of electronic goods and other white goods for which demand growth is very strong.
 
In view of the estimated growth in the domestic EPS market, the Company is evaluating the viability of further increasing the capacity of the Chennai plant to 33000 TPA. 
 
SPS:  The Company is hopeful of further strengthening its position in SPS business during the year and is confident of achieving 80% growth on year-on-year basis in domestic and export markets.  Considering the growth anticipated in the coming years, the Company is augmenting the capacity by installing four more lines for compounding.
 
XPS:  Awareness about insulation in buildings for energy conservation is gaining momentum. Rising energy costs and growing concern about protecting the environment, augurs well for the product.  Green building movement spearheaded by IGBC, TERI and Griha are getting well accepted by the building industry in India.
 
The Company's product branded as INSUBOARD has got good response from architects and consultants and was used successfully for the Common Wealth Games Village in Delhi.
 
PROJECTS
 
The Company would be incurring a capital expenditure of Rs.1250.000 millions during 2010-11 on the following capacity building projects and also revamp of PS line as mentioned above. Cup Grade and EPS at Amdoshi (Maharashtra)  : The  projects for setting up of 24000 TPA EPS plant at the  existing  plant site in Maharashtra and 20400 TPA plant for manufacturing Cup Grade EPS  at the  plant  site in Maharashtra have been taken up  simultaneously  and  is making  good  progress. Detailed engineering is nearing completion.  Civil work commenced from mid November 2009, all major equipment are expected on site by September 2010. Commercial production is expected in the first quarter of 2011.
 
SPS: Four more lines for compounding are being installed thus enhancing the current capacity to 33,500 TPA by end September, 2010. Further expansion by adding two more lines to increase capacity to 43,800 TPA are scheduled for commissioning by July 2011.
 
Gas Power Project: Agreements for gas transmission and allocation for the gas engine based Captive Power Plant of 3500 KVA, have been signed with GAIL.  Pipelines for gas delivery have been laid at the plant site. The project will be completed by April / May 2011.
 
Minor Port: The purchase of balance land is currently not progressing due to village opposition to land acquisition by a large industrial house in the vicinity of their site. The issue relating to construction of approach road is also pending with various authorities. Work on their Port project would commence only after the same are resolved.
 
SEZ:  Land acquisition for the Special Economic Zone (SEZ) is progressing well.  However, the draft direct tax code proposes to remove the tax incentive to units to be set up in SEZ. The Company is therefore having a relook at the viability of the SEZ project.

Unlocking value of 'realty' key growth driver for Supreme Industries

 

Economic Times (India)


28 April 2011

By By Ramkrishna Kashelkar, The Economic Times, India

 

April 28--Mumbai-based plastic goods maker Supreme Industries faced a temporary phase of margin pressure as raw material costs shot up during the March 2011 quarter.

 

Overcoming this and a few other challenges, the company went on to post a respectable profit growth for the March 2011 quarter. The scrip, however, took little notice of the results and maintained its level. It was mainly the strong sales growth that enabled Supreme Industries to post a 12.2% consolidated net profit growth to Rs 483.000 million during the March 2011 quarter.

 

The challenges that the company faced included margin pressure, no sales from its commercial building, a fall in other income and rising interest pressure. Still, the 29% revenue growth aided by a 32% volume growth and a 50% jump in its share in Supreme Petrochem's profits propped up the bottomline.

 

Rising crude oil prices and the disaster in Japan led to a spurt in the company's raw material prices, which it couldn't immediately pass on. As a result, the operating profit margin shrank 180 basis points to 12.6%. With its Rs 2750.000 millions capex plan for FY11 continuing and no revenues coming from property sales, the interest burden soared 60% to Rs 129.000 millions.

 

The company's debt-equity ratio rose to 0.93 by end-December 2010 from 0.72 in June 10. Considering the strong demand for its products and a robust volume growth, the margins are expected to return to normal levels for the June 2011 quarter. The company has constructed a 10-storey commercial complex with 2,75,000 sq ft saleable area on its land in Andheri.

 

So far, it has sold around 40,000 sq ft for Rs 600.000 millions which translates into an average price of Rs 15,000 per sq ft. The company expects to sell off the remaining property by end-2011 and realise Rs 3500.000 millions. Since the stock split in October 2010, the share price of Supreme Industries has remained in a tight range disregarding the strong bearish sentiments in the first couple of months of 2011.

 

Between January and February 2011, when the Sensex lost over 13%, the Supreme scrip actually gained slightly. The scrip is trading at a price-to-earnings multiple (P/E) of 10.5, considering its consolidated net profit for trailing 12 months. While the strong 20% plus volume growth continues to support the company's steady growth, unlocking the value in commercial property remains a key growth driver for the company in coming quarters.
