OVERVIEW AND REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

 

With the bounce back in the real estate industry and other infrastructure projects in the country, the company in now well positioned to cater to the demand of the construction industry. The Company is putting more emphasis on the infrastructure projects by identifying the new potential areas throughout the country by setting uploperating onsite ready mix concrete plants to meet the demand of the ready mix concrete of the infrastructure projects. The company is further identifying various other potential areas for setting up the ready mix concrete plant so as to meet the demand of ready mix concrete of construction industry and infrastructure projects.

 

The company is pre-dominantly engaged in the business of manufacture and sale of ready mix concrete. During the year, the company has achieved a turnover of Rs.10551.000 Millions from the sale of the ready mix concrete and aggregates. The company recorded an EBITDA of Rs.591.000 Millions in comparison to Rs.376.000 Millions for the previous year. The company reduced the net loss after tax to 1535.000 Millions in comparison to Rs.2313.000 Millions for the previous year. During the year, the company prepaid part of the term loan to the extent of Rs. 2500.000 Millions fully funded through the capital infusion, resulting into significant reduction of the interest cost. The period is for a period of 12 months, thus the figures for the year are not comparable with the previous year.

 

In the aggregates space, the Company is aggressively identifying the minor mineral reserves in strategic locations of the country in order to set up the mining activities and stone crushing activities.

 

FUTURE OUTLOOK

 

With more focus on the big infrastructure projects, the company expects volumes of the ready mix concrete division of the company to grow further. In the Aggregates division of the Company, potential areas for the mining activities are being secured by the company. With increased focus on the sale of ready mix concrete to infrastructure and construction projects and planning to set up the mining activities for the aggregates division, the company expects to cater to the construction industry in a big way by supplying the various construction materials to the construction industry and infrastructure projects.
