LOCAL AGENCY FURTHER INFORMATION

 

RESULT OF OPERATIONS (STANDALONE)

 

The Financial year ended 2010-11 was a year of improved performance and consolidation for the company. Even though the global and national economic scenario posed several challenges, the Company has made the best of the available opportunities and resources for growth.

 

The sales turnover of the company has increased from Rs.1291.600 millions to Rs.1420.800 millions registering growth of approx 10%. Other income for the year is Rs.4.200 millions as against Rs.0.400 million for the previous year. The operating profit before depreciation and tax is Rs.48.763 millions compared to 46.979 millions in the previous year registering about 4% increase due to stability in foreign currency market and better realizations for the Company’s products. The profit after depreciation and tax is Rs.24.671 millions compared to Rs.22.698 millions for the previous year.

 

SUBSIDIARY COMPANY

 

Last year the company had invested in a wholly owned Subsidiary Company, Sanghavi Logistics Private Limited. The subsidiary company has not yet commenced its business activities.

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSIONAND ANALYSIS REPORT

 

INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENT

 

The company is in the business of manufacturing water thinnable polymer emulsions at its two plants located at Dahanu and Silvassa. These emulsions have application in varied industries such as paints, textiles, packaging and the furniture industry. The products, being eco friendly, there is a general trend to shift to these water based emulsions. For instance, in the paint segment, the demand for solvent based products is being gradually replaced by water thinnable binders.

 

The company also manufactures products which find application in the consumer segment and are sold through retail channel. Products like wood adhesives, sealants, screen printing adhesives, etc. are sold through retail outlets. Thus the company has a balanced product mix by virtue of its presence in both the industrial and consumer segment.

 

The Industry has both local and multinational players and with the duty structure now being quite reasonable, the local players are also in a position to compete with the multinationals.

 

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE WITH RESPECT TO OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE

 

MANUFACTURING DIVISION

 

During the year the production has increased from 19783 M. Tonnes to 21280 M. Tonnes in terms of volume registering growth of 7.57%. In value terms the sales has increased from Rs.734.800 millions to Rs.925.300 millions registering impressive growth of about 26%. It is pertinent to note that the share of industrial adhesives, which is an important product category from the company’s perspective both in terms of margins and customer loyalty, has increased from 22% to 30% while the share of consumer adhesives has remained constant at 9% even on the enhanced production.

 

TRADING DIVISION

 

In the trading segment, the turnover decreased to Rs.378.300 millions from Rs.483.300 millions registering a decline of 21.73% due to the Company’s conscious decision to focus on the manufactured products.

 

FOREIGN EXCHANGE FLUCTUATIONS

 

The Company’s business is import-centric. However due to better forex management systems adopted by the company and comparatively moderate fluctuations in the foreign exchange rates this year, the company has earned a foreign exchange fluctuations gain of Rs.5.582 millions.

 

OUTLOOK

 

The existing two manufacturing plants are not able to cater fully to the ever increasing demand due to capacity constraints. The company is in the process of establishing a third plant at Dahej (Gujarat) with the capacity of 36000 M. Tons. The total installed capacity with the commissioning of this plant shall stand enhanced to 58000 M. Tons .Land has been acquired for the same and the construction of the factory building is in progress. Orders for plant and machinery are being placed. The company expects this plant to be operational by the first quarter of fiscal year 2012-13. It is also planned to have some backward integration products at this unit which combined with the additional capacities may put the company in the top league of emulsion manufacturers in the country.

ICRA ASSIGNS "A3" RATING FOR NIKHIL ADHESIVES' SHORT TERM DEMAND LOAN

 

India, November 17 -- ICRA has assigned "A3" rating for Nikhil Adhesives' (NAL) short term demand loan worth Rs.30.000 millions (which comprises of Rs.13.300 millions enhanced amount and reclassified proposed enhancement amount rated earlier).The ratings continue to reflect NAL's established presence in the paints and emulsions industry, its reputed client base and locational advantage arising from proximity to ports and end-user industries. The ratings also factors in its satisfactory financial risk profile with improving capital structure. However the ratings are constrained by the moderate profitability margins and coverage indicators and vulnerability of margins to raw material price and forex fluctuations. The ratings are also constrained by high competitive pressures in the industry with strong competition from unorganized (large presence) as well as organized players which would continue to put pressure on the margins going forward. NAL, a listed company with the Bombay Stock Exchange, is engaged in the manufacturing of various types of industrial and consumer chemical products like adhesives, binders, thickeners and construction chemicals. It is also engaged in trading of chemicals. NAL's marketing offices are at Chennai, Ahmedabad, Delhi, Jaipur and Ghaziabad with stocking facilities by way of warehouses. It has two manufacturing plants located at Dahanu and Silvassa.
