YEAR IN RETROSPECT

 

The world economy in 2010 ended without the ‘double-dip’ recession that many economists had predicted. The quantitative easing combined with the tax cut package in the US, provided some stimulus to the US economy. The European Union Sovereign debt concerns resulted in a slow-down in economies in the region. The consumers in overseas markets have cut back on discretionary and big-ticket spending reflected in higher savings rates in some geographies.

 

The year 2010-11 was a year of consolidation for the various businesses of the Company. The distribution businesses in North America reported a growth of 18.00%, while the European, India and Asia distribution business continued to be steady. The Curtain and Upholstery exports business reported a sales growth of 5.52% during the year.

 

For 2010-11, standalone revenue from operations grew by 9.23% to Rs.5080.161 millions, as compared to Rs.4651.068 millions in 2009-10. Other income for the year was Rs.122.635 millions as against Rs.108.213 millions in the previous year.

 

The significant area of concern was an unprecedented increase in the cost of raw materials coupled with the weakening dollar. The increase in material cost in the current year over a normative pricing scenario is estimated to be approximately Rs.900.000 millions, while the Indian Rupee strengthened against the dollar by 3.20%.

 

The Company had increased realizations of products sold, introduced product mix changes and changes in their pattern of sourcing during the year. However, these changes did not completely mitigate the increase in input costs. Consequently there was a significant contraction in the margin of the manufacturing business. The greatest impact was felt in the Bed Linen division, which reported a loss of Rs.591.335 millions, as compared to a loss of Rs.178.701 millions in the previous year. For the year under review, the Company reported a loss of Rs.421.837 millions as against a profit of Rs.82.054 millions in the previous year.

 

 

PROSPECTS

 

USA and Europe are the key markets for the Company’s products. The North American markets in particular have shown a growth of 16.03%. While the economic data disclosed from these two markets shows cautious optimism, we anticipate a stable situation for the future.

 

 

GROWTH INITIATIVES DURING THE YEAR

 

The Company has invested significant time and resources in addressing changing requirements in a complex market. Initiatives in the regard include product re-engineering, addressing requirements of price sensitive markets, new product launches, addition of new customers and launching new distribution channels.

 

The Company is planning to enhance the retail presence of its luxury brand “atmosphere” through opening of additional retail outlets in the Middle East, South East Asia and India. The company also plans to introduce a new brand in home furnishings which will cater to the mid-market segment.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENTS

 

They are a leading home textile manufacturer having a global distribution network and a portfolio of premium international brands. The principal business is producing an extensive range of home furnishing fabrics for curtains and upholstery, silk apparel fabrics for bridal wear and women’s wear, and bed linen products.

 

The Textile industry is among the largest industries in India. It occupies an important place in the economy of the country because of its contribution to the industrial output, employment generation and foreign exchange earnings. During 2010-11, the global environment for home textiles has been relatively buoyant in the American markets while it has been under continuing stress in the European markets.

 

The international home textiles market has been marked by increasing product complexity, higher service standards required from manufacturers and shorter delivery cycles. In addition very tight control on cost of sourcing from the retailers end has resulted in an inability to pass on higher input prices in entirety within a defined time frame. There has also been a marked trend of brands addressing various pricing formats. Private label distributors, Big Box retailers and brand distributors have consciously cultivated the mid-market segment to manage the difficult economic environment.

 

High input costs, competition, cost competitiveness, low productivity levels and the rupee volatility are some of the key challenges faced by the industry.

 

India being the second largest producer of cotton, it enjoys a competitive edge in low cost cotton sourcing compared to other countries. However, the last year saw a continuous upward spiral of cotton prices (consequently impacting cotton yarn prices) in India and globally.

 

The Indian home textile market includes products such as bed linen, curtains, towels, blankets, upholstery, rugs and carpets etc. The market is estimated at Rs. 155.7 billion (US$ 3.5 billion) in 2009 and expected to reach Rs. 400 billion (US$ 9 billion) by 2020 growing @ 9% CAGR. (Source: Technopak Indian Textile and Apparel Compendium, September 2010).This is expected to happen due to the growing affluence levels of the Indian consumers, increased urban household population and corporatization.

 

Bed Linens, curtains and upholstery contributed 64.8% or Rs.101 billion to the total Indian home textile market in 2009 and this is expected to increase Rs. 175 billion by 2015(E) (Source: Technopak Indian Textile and Apparel Compendium, September 2010). Design and fashion capabilities are the differentiators required to build relationships with global retailers and score over competition from China and other countries. To address these challenges the Company continuously invests in new technology, and strives to shorten delivery cycles to meet customer demands. Expanding product breadth and strengthening design focus, both in India and overseas, have been an integral part of the Himatsingka strategy.

 

 

OPPORTUNITIES

 

The continuation of Technology Up gradation Fund (TUF) scheme by the Central Government in the 11th plan period indicates the opportunities the industry has going forward. A gradual shifting of textile manufacturing facilities from the developed economies to developing economies is making countries like India and China play an increasingly important role.

 

With the Hassan Bed Linen facility and distribution and brand synergies with Giuseppe Bellora SpA, Divatex Home Fashions Inc. and DWI Holdings Inc., the Company has created a strong presence in the home textiles segment. They supply products to 6 out of the top 10 retailing giants in the North America.

 

They operate a luxury home furnishing brand ‘atmosphere’ – through a retail chain of 14 showrooms of which 12 are located in India and one each in Dubai and Singapore. This gives us strong retail network to capitalize on the rising consumer demand for luxury home furnishing products in India, South East Asia and the Middle East. The reputation as a leading exporter of silk and blended fabric will enable us to take advantage of future growth in the domestic home furnishing market

 

 

OUTLOOK

 

With their investments in Bed Linen manufacturing, retailing and overseas acquisitions, they believe they are positioned to embrace the various opportunities available to us in these segments to significantly enhance their revenues and market share. Risk is an essential part of any business or industrial undertaking. Risk management objectives of the Company are set to achieve an optimal balance between growth, value creation and related risks and efficient and effective deployment of the Company’s resources. Hence, risk management is not just about minimizing the downside to risk but also increasing the potential upside within prudential limits. As a result of globalization and rapidly changing business environment, the risks have become more complex. The following factors are not an exhaustive list of risks associated with their business. Additional risks not currently known to us or that they currently deem not to be significant also may adversely affect their business, financial condition or results of operations in future periods.

Promoters raising stake in textile companies on bright outlook; Promoter stakes have gone up in Aditya Birla Nuvo, Arvind, Nahar Spinning and Himatsingka Seide

 

 

DNA (Daily News and Analysis)

 

31 March 2011

By Amritha Pillay

 

The Indian textile sector has now seen positive growth and a speedy recovery for more than seven quarters now.

While the financial performance has picked up, promoters of this textile companies are positive that share valuations would increase soon. To benefit from this expected higher valuation, many promoters are busy increasing their shareholding.

 

Aditya Birla Nuvo, Arvind Limited, Nahar Spinning and Himatsingka Seide are some of the companies that have increased their promoter and group shareholding in the past one year

 

Major increase in the shareholding percentage has been witnessed among small-cap players like Digjam Ltd, Gini Filaments, Nitin Spinners and Nahar Poly Films. Fabric manufacturer, Digjam Ltd, has witnessed the highest increase in its promoter shareholding by around 8.87%, while Ginni Filaments increased its promoter holding by around 7.37%.

 

"The industry has been doing well for the past one-and-a-half year. Though increase in raw material prices is an issue, it has been passed on to the customers till now. The coming months look positive for the industry," said Shishir Jaipuria, managing director, Ginni Filaments.

 

Officials from Spentex Land TT Limited agree textile stocks are expected to perform well in the coming future and thus it makes sense for the company to increase its promoter holding.

 

"They believe the company has a bright future and expect better valuations. At the current valuation, they thought it was a good opportunity to increase holding," said Mukund Choudhary, managing director, Spentex Limited Spentex has increased its promoter holding by around 4.34% in the past one year.

 

"A number of players are looking at increasing their promoter holding as it is a good time to do so. They, as a company, have also increased it and will continue to be on a lookout for such opportunities. The main idea is currently a number of textile stocks are under-valued and there is an expectation that valuations will increase in future," said Sanjay Jain, joint managing director, TT Limited

 

The company, which has presence in the yarn, fabric and apparel segment, increased its promoter shareholding by around 0.34% and plans to increase it further.

Other than expectations for better valuations, huge capacity expansion plans is also being stated as a reason for increase in promoter holding.

 

"In order to expand business, a lot of capital infusion has taken place. Thus, the promoters want to ensure they have a major hold on the company," said Gopal Agarwal, CFO, Ganesh Polytex Limited  In the past one year, the company has increased promoter and promoter group shareholding by around 5.04%.

 

In the coming months, the company also plans to convert warrants worth 24 lakh shares into equity. This will take the company's promoter holding from the current 52% to around 55%.

 

Jayesh Shah, director and CFO, Arvind Limited, said, "The company had converted some warrants a year or so ago. Thus, the shareholding increased." However, he refused to comment from an industry perspective. Copyright 2010 Diligent Media Corporation Limited, DNA (Daily News and Analysis) All Rights Reserved.
