INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW
India is developing into an open-market economy, yet traces
of its past autarkic policies remain. Economic liberalization, including
industrial deregulation, privatization of state-owned enterprises, and reduced
controls on foreign trade and investment, began in the early 1990s and has
served to accelerate the country's growth, which has averaged more than 7% per
year since 1997. India's diverse economy encompasses traditional village
farming, modern agriculture, handicrafts, a wide range of modern industries,
and a multitude of services. Slightly more than half of the work force is in
agriculture, but services are the major source of economic growth, accounting
for more than half of India's output, with only one-third of its labor force.
India has capitalized on its large educated English-speaking population to
become a major exporter of information technology services and software
workers. In 2010, the Indian economy rebounded robustly from the global
financial crisis - in large part because of strong domestic demand - and growth
exceeded 8% year-on-year in real terms. However, India's economic growth in
2011 slowed because of persistently high inflation and interest rates and
little progress on economic reforms. High international crude prices have
exacerbated the government's fuel subsidy expenditures contributing to a higher
fiscal deficit, and a worsening current account deficit. Little economic reform
took place in 2011 largely due to corruption scandals that have slowed legislative
work. India's medium-term growth outlook is positive due to a young population
and corresponding low dependency ratio, healthy savings and investment rates,
and increasing integration into the global economy. India has many long-term
challenges that it has not yet fully addressed, including widespread poverty,
inadequate physical and social infrastructure, limited non-agricultural
employment opportunities, scarce access to quality basic and higher education,
and accommodating rural-to-urban migration.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
MARKET OVERVIEW
The
year under discussion closed with a 37% addition to the company’s revenues,
with a 18% growth in operating profits and with net profits being maintained at
earlier levels, despite a 32% increase in raw material costs over the previous year.
Raw material prices escalated in the first half of FY12 and stabilised to a
large extent in the second half of the year. However, relief on natural rubber
prices was nullified due to higher cost of oil-based raw materials – compounded
by an unstable political situation in the Middle East.
From
a revenue segmentation position, India Operations accounted for 67% of net
sales, Europe 23% and Africa 10%. The ratio between Original Equipment
Manufacturers or OEM to Replacement (including exports from respective
manufacturing locations) was maintained at 27% and 73% respectively. In terms
of products, truck bus tyres and passenger vehicle tyres account for the
largest share at48%and33%respectively.
Overall,
FY12 was a year of introduction of more advanced products across every single
customer segment and the implementation of robust quality processes for the
future.
ZONALOVERVIEWS
After
a decade of stable growth, barring the slowdown in 2008, the Indian economy
fell short of steam with weak industrial growth bringing down overall economic
growth to 6.5% in FY12. The year was marked by rising interest rates and
inflation, and hikes in fuel prices.
According
to the Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers, the auto industry registered
limited growth, with passenger vehicle sales growing by 4.6% and commercial
vehicle sales growing by 18.2% -- the latter being driven by a demand boost in
the light commercial vehicle category.
In
the past fiscal, according to the Automotive Tyre Manufacturers’ Association,
the Indian tyre industry, which closely mirrors prevailing sentiments in the
automotive sector, is estimated to have clocked a turnover of around Rs 300
billion, with exports accounting for Rs.36 billion. Dominated by few large
manufacturers, the total production was recorded at around 1.5 million metric
tonnes.
The
commercial vehicle tyre segment grew by a marginal 3% over the previous year,
in terms of units produced. Largely gaining from an increase in profitability
of fleet owners due to a multitude of factors – ranging from ability to pass on
increased fuel cost to consumers and better efficiencies in operations. The
light commercial vehicle and industrial tyre segments registered maximum
growth, with both growing a healthy 11%. The light commercial vehicle segment
benefitted hugely from the spike in small commercial vehicle sales.
Overall
tyre imports rose by nearly 17% in FY12, boosted by demand amongst original
equipment manufacturers. Imports in the passenger car tyres category grew at
13%.
Throughout
the period under discussion, the European Union’s economy experienced
considerable turbulence for various reasons, including high level of sovereign
debt, slowdown in global demand and low consumer confidence. The impact was
felt on the GDP growth which was around 1.4%, a decline from the previous
year’s 1.9%, with the central and eastern European countries marginally
outperforming their western counterparts. Though the strongest and largest
economy in Europe, Germany, continued to provide economic leadership with GDP
growth at almost 3%.
During
early 2012, the European Central Bank injected significant liquidity into the
banking system which calmed down markets and brought much needed stability. The
Euro appeared to be volatile against all major currencies with the exchange
rate against the US$ peaking to 1.44 before touching a low of 1.28 and
averaging at 1.37 during FY12.
Despite
uncertain economic conditions, new car registrations in Europe grew by 2% over
the previous year.
For
the European tyre industry, the year started with continued strong demand for
passenger vehicle tyres. With inventories at a low level, it was difficult to
satisfy demand from all customers. However, sales slowed down following a warm
winter leaving inventory both with manufacturers and dealers. In Europe, winter
tyre sales accounted for 33% of total sales. The tyre market saw a degrowth
of2%in CY11.
In
South Africa, GDP growth was at 3.1% for CY11. The country’s Central Bank kept
borrowing costs unchanged for a record 16 months after inflation slowed in
February, easing concerns that price pressures may be spreading in the African
continent’s largest conomy. However,
economic hurdles appeared in the guise of exchange rate fluctuations - with an
almost30%swing against the US$ – and precariously balanced relationship with
labour and unions.
In
the South African automobile market, the domestic passenger car segment grew as
much as 17.5%; but well below peak levels witnessed in 2005-07. The light
commercial vehicle market expanded by 11.6%, while demand in the medium and
heavy vehicle segment rose by around 21%. The tyre import market in CY11
accounted for almost 50% of products sold across all segments, putting severe
pressure on the domestic industry and restricting its growth.
INDUSTRY STRUCTURE
AND DEVELOPMENTS
The Indian tyre
industry, in comparison to its western counterparts, lags behind in
radialisation trends. Radialisation levels for passenger vehicle tyres were maintained
at 98%, while for commercial vehicle segment it was pegged at 22% – a
significant growth of nearly25%over last year.
The top 5 players
– Apollo, Birla, Ceat, JK Tyres and MRF – command over 70% of the market, with
product offerings across all major categories. India continues to be driven by
the commercial vehicle tyre segment, where truck and bus tyres contribute as
much as 55% of the industry’s revenue. The replacement market accounts for 70%
of the revenues, though the OE segment continues to play a crucial role in
terms of volumes and ensuring
product
acceptability in the consumers’ mind.
Amongst those who
set up new manufacturing units in the country were Bridgestone, JK Tyres and
MRF. Bridgestone’s Rs 4.3 billion plant in central India was completed in July
2011. The unit is geared to produce 12,000 truck-bus radials and 120,000
passenger car radials every month. Both JK Tyres and MRF, like Apollo, chose
the southern Indian state of Tamil Nadu as their preferred manufacturing
location. JK Tyres’ facility, which was completed in February 2012 with an
investment of Rs 10 billion, is equipped to manufacture around 208,000
passenger car radials and 33,000 truck-bus radials each month. MRF’s facility,
built with an investment of Rs.9 billion, has a capacity of 350,000 passenger
car radials and 60,000 truck-bus radials per month. Ceat also ramped up
capacity at its unit in Western India with a radial capacity of 150 tonnes per
day. The Michelin facility in Tamil Nadu with a capacity of 2 million truck-bus
radial tyres per year, is currently under construction and expected to begin
production later in the year.
Apollo’s
manufacturing unit in Tamil Nadu, which will attain full capacity in December
2012, has been constructed
to accommodate a manufacturing capability of 480,000 passenger car radials and
180,000 truck-bus radials each month.
Apollo,
Birla, BKT, Falcon, JK Tyres and MRF also sought to expand capacities in their
existing facilities – with combined investment to the tune of Rs 35 billion.
In
FY12, while production of truck-bus and passenger car tyres went up by a
marginal 3% and 4% respectively, light commercial vehicle and industrial tyre
production jumped 11%. The total production in the industry grew by around 5% –
a trend which is expected to continue in the near future.
Exports
out of India grew in most categories and registered the highest growth of 65%
in the off-the road tyre segment.
In
policy developments, legislation on tyre labeling is scheduled to be
implemented in Europe in November 2012; most manufacturers are working towards
achieving compliance for the same. With the new tyre labelling system,
consumers will be informed upfront on where each tyre stacks up on the 3 key
areas of rolling resistance, wet grip and exterior noise.
In
South Africa, the 4 local manufacturers – Apollo, Bridgestone, Continental and
Goodyear – continue to compete in a market which is dominated by imports.
Growth plans were mostly put on hold due to political and economic concerns in
various African countries.
In
CY11 for domestic manufacturers, while the passenger car tyre category grew
marginally, truck bus tyres had a flat year in South Africa
SEGMENT WISE
PERFORMANCE
For
FY12, Apollo Tyres’ India operation’s sales were over Rs 81 billion, a growth
of around 47% over the same period last year. In terms of overall revenue
segmentation, 56% of revenues came from the Indian replacement and 34% from
original equipment manufacturers, with the remaining from exports. The two
large product segments continued to be truck-bus and passenger car accounting
for 65%and16%of revenues.
For
India operations, the area of concern was passenger car tyre sales, which
remained flat, compared to the high growth of previous years. This may be attributed
to low growth in car sales, which took a blow from high interest rates and
rising fuel prices in FY12.
For
the company’s India operations, FY12 was a year of new export markets in Japan,
Malaysia, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, Thailand, Uzbekistan and Vietnam. However, the
area of focus was the Middle East, with Dubai as the hub of operations. Towards
this, Apollo opened its largest office outside its operations in India, South
Africa and the Netherlands, in Dubai.
To
boost consumer sentiment and reward loyal business partners, the company
introduced a slew of initiatives.
For the passenger car category emphasis was
on service and delivery. To begin with, Apollo Direct – a toll free helpline,
to enable customers to select and buy the appropriate tyre was launched. Apollo
Super Zone, large branded retail outlets with a host of facilities like
wireless internet, lounges and entertainment centres, were opened in cities
like Delhi, Dubai and Mumbai to ensure that consumers have a pleasant tyre
buying experience. The company sponsored the 2012 to recognise and facilitate
achievers in the automobile space. For its offroading customers, it brought out
the perfect offering in the form of a premium coffee table book – which covered
a variety of subjects in the 4x4 category. In association with Mahindra and
Mahindra, its OE partner, Apollo co-sponsored the annual monsoon driving
adventure. Safe Drive campaigns to create awareness amongst consumers regarding
tyre maintenance and care continued unabated, much like previous years.
In the commercial vehicle category, while
service and delivery continued to be important, the focus was on empowering
customers to derive the maximum out of their tyres. To this end, India
Operations announced the 1st which recognised and upheld best
practice in the transport sector. While the Apollo Radial Service Assistance
programme looked at improving operational efficiencies of fleet owners. Over
100 retreaders, now known as Apollo Certified Retreaders, were trained and
equipped by the company for the benefit of its commercial vehicle customers.
Similarly, the company also trained and equipped over 200 tyre fitters,
referred to as Expert Tyre Fitters. The concept of branded retail outlets was
also introduced for the commercial category, with 2 such outlets being opened
in transport hubs in Delhi and Tamil Nadu. Trust Built on Millions of Miles,
the all-India customer connect programme, was launched for the commercial cross
ply consumers to identify and address their concerns.
A
significant milestone was achieved in Q4 FY12 when Apollo’s iconic tyre
manufacturing facility in Chennai produced its millionth truck-bus radial tyre;
the unit went on-stream with an initial production of 250 tyres a day in April
2010, and was gradually ramped up to cross 4,000 a day. In terms of new
products, India operations launched XT-7 Gold+, a benchmark product in the
moderate load segment.
For
the European operations, Apollo Vredestein B V registered an impressive topline
growth of 16% in FY12 over the previous year. This translates into a growth of
around3%in passenger car tyres and5% in agriculture tyres, in volume terms; the
rest is a result of price hikes and an improved sales mix. Apollo Vredestein is
an established player in the replacement market in Europe. Not surprisingly
then, 78% of the revenue came from replacement while original equipment
manufacturers accounted for remaining 19%. The passenger car tyre category
constituted 83% of the total revenue, agriculture tyres contributed 14%.
In
FY12, new product development was led by ultra high performance and high
performance passenger car tyres for both Apollo and Vredestein brands. Europe
operations successfully organised 2 major product launches. Apollo Aspire 4G
was unveiled at the 82nd Geneva Motor Show. It was closely followed by
Vredestein Ultrac Vorti and Sportrac 5, the next generation in this range being
showcased in Budapest at the Hungaroring Formula 1 race track. Critics and
consumers alike appreciated these latest offerings from the company.
Moreover,
the successful introduction of Aspire 4G in Geneva was given an extra push by
“highly recommended” test results of the Apollo Amazer 3G Maxx. The latter
received a favourable report card from the European summer tyre tests conducted
by ADAC, TCS and OEMTC; the results assure customers of the highest quality.
During the year under consideration, Apollo Vredestein also presented its white
sidewall classic tyre, making a clear statement about its ambition to grow in
this niche market as well as its technological capabilities.
OUTLOOK
With
the Indian economy showing a moderate growth trend, reasonable growth is
expected in the automotive industry. As per the Society of Indian Automobile
Manufacturers, the Indian automotive industry is expected to grow about 10-12%
on the back of unfulfilled demand from FY12 and expected interest rate cuts in
FY13. Subsequently, the Indian tyre industry is estimated to grow by around
10%, though challenged by an inverted duty structure and continued high raw
material prices.
Rural
pockets of the country have gradually emerged as promising markets for both
commercial and passenger vehicle products. In keeping with this, almost all
major tyre manufacturers are preparing to build their passenger car and light
truck tyre production capacities.
In
terms of raw materials, the global tyre industry’s focus is likely to be on
efficient inventory management, vendor relationship management, procurement
from low cost sources and raw material substitution. In the near future, major
raw material prices are expected to exhibit an upward trend in the first half
of FY13 with natural rubber and crude oil based raw materials like synthetic
rubber and carbon black also firming up.
In Europe,
most economists are forecasting moderate growth within the Eurozone in the near
future. Individual governments are expected to strike a delicate balance
between spending cuts to manage the deficit and economic growth initiatives
leading to job creation. Austerity programmes together with continued liquidity
injection by the European Central Bank will help in regaining investor
confidence and assist economic stability. Inflation remains a concern on the
back of high prices of crude oil, which is the result of the political
situation in various countries in the Middle East.
Outlook
for Apollo Vredestein B V is largely positive, even though it is expected that
market growth in Europe will be limited. For brand Vredestein, key to growth will be new product development and
entry into new markets. Products from the premium segment under brand
Vredestein are slated to be introduced in key growth markets including India,
South Africa and the Middle East. Brand Apollo, which is now well-positioned in
Europe, is now marketed in Austria, Denmark, Switzerland and Greece in addition
to the existing markets of Germany, Netherlands, United Kingdom and Italy.
In
South Africa, domestic economic growth remains constrained. However, improved
performance of the African economy in Q4 FY12 and a few positive developments
in the global economy indicate a slightly better outlook than the previous
year. Yet FY13 looks to be challenging with South Africa’s economic environment
being affected by the global economic outlook, an impact of the European debt
crisis and commodity price volatility in particular.
DISCUSSION ON FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE WITH RESPECT TO OPERATIONAL
PERFORMANCE
The
financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of
the Companies Act 1956, and applicable accounting standards issued by the
Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. The management of company accepts
the integrity and objectivity of these financial statements as well as the
various estimates and judgments used therein. The estimates and judgments
relating to the financial statements have been made on a prudent and reasonable
basis, in order that the financial statements are reflected in a true and fair
manner, and also reasonably present the company’s state of affairs and profit
for the year.
OPERATIONS
Subject registered
revenue growth of37%during FY12.
On a standalone
basis, the Company saw a net turnover of Rs 81,579 million as against Rs 54,905
million during the previous financial year. EBIDTA was at Rs 6,845 million as
compared to Rs 5,699 million during the previous financial year. The net profit
for the year was Rs 1,813 million, as against Rs 1,983 million in the previous
fiscal. The raw material cost push continued to pose a challenge.
The consolidated
net turnover of the Company increased to Rs 1,21,533 million during FY12, as
compared to Rs 88,677 million in FY11. The consolidated EBITDA was Rs 11,987
million for FY12 as compared to Rs 10,160 million for the previous financial
year. On consolidated basis, Apollo Tyres earned net profit of Rs 4,099 million
for FY12 as against Rs 4,402 million for the previous financial year.
The amount
available for appropriations, including surplus from previous year amounted to
Rs 8,282 million. Surplus of Rs 6,710 million has been carried forward to the
balance sheet after providing for dividend of Rs 252 million, dividend tax of
Rs 41 million, debenture redemption reserve of Rs 279 million and general
reserve of Rs 1,000 million.
The Company
entered new markets and consolidated its operations in existing ones, with
focus on profitability and internal efficiencies.
PRODUCTION
The Company's
production has shown a consolidated growth of 16%, in production tonnage, by generating
an output of 510,537 metric tonnes (MT) as against 438,524 metric tonnes in the
previous year.
RAW MATERIALS
Raw material
prices continued their upward march in the first half of the year on back of
rising commodity prices. The Euro Zone economic issues and relatively lower GDP
growth rates in China and India had a moderating effect on demand for major
commodities. This in turn acted as a check on soaring prices of major
commodities in the second half of the year with prices stabilizing at high
levels. However, the impact of stabilization in major commodities prices in the
second half of the year in India was partially offset by the weakening of the
rupee against the US Dollar.
The natural rubber
consumption in India has overtaken production leading to a deficit in the
country. The price intervention scheme announced by the Government of Thailand
led to firming up of international prices in latter part of the year.
Crude oil prices
breached the US$ 100 per barrel level, despite decelerating rate of growth in
the wake of a global slump.
There was an
increase of 18% in the prices of crude over previous year. Derivatives of
crude, which are used as raw materials, surpassed the crude trend line and
registered a disproportionate increase leading to a steep increase in the
prices of synthetic rubber and carbon black.
In India, the
antidumping duty continued on import of nylon tyre cord fabric, carbon black
and rubber chemicals. Further a safeguard duty recommendation was also made on
carbon black imports from China.
For FY12, Apollo
Tyres continued its focus on vendor relationship management, procurement from
low cost sources, raw material substitution and efficient current asset
management.
MARKETING
FY12 was a year of
new markets for the Company's operations which commenced exports to Japan,
Malaysia, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, Thailand, Uzbekistan and Vietnam. However, the
area of focus was the Middle East, where Apollo opened its largest office
outside its 3 geographical manufacturing operations.
For the passenger
car tyre category, emphasis was on service and delivery. To begin with, Apollo
Direct tyre helpline, which enables customers to select and buy the appropriate
Apollo tyre for their vehicle by calling on a toll free number, was launched. Apollo
Super Zone, large branded retail outlets with a host of facilities like
wireless internet, lounges and entertainment centres, were opened in cities
like Delhi, Dubai and Mumbai to ensure that consumers have a pleasant tyre
buying experience. The company sponsored the ET Zigwheels Awards 2012 to
recognise and facilitate the achievers in the automobile space. Safe Drive
campaigns to create awareness amongst consumers regarding tyre maintenance and
care continued unabated, muchlike previous year.
In the commercial
vehicle category, while service and delivery continued to be important, the
focus was on empowering customers to derive most out of their tyres. To this
end, Indian operations announced the 1st Apollo Fleet of the Year Awards which
recognised and upheld best practice in the transport sector; while the Apollo
Radial Service Assistance programme looked at improving operational
efficiencies of fleet owners. The concept of branded retail outlets was
introduced for the said category as well, with 2 such outlets being opened in
transhipment hubs in Delhi and Tamil Nadu. Trust built on Millions of Miles,
the all-India customer connect programme, was launched to understand consumer
opinions regarding Apollo tyres and, identify and address their concerns.
In the company's
Europe operations, in FY12, the focus area was new product development and it
was led by ultra high performance and high performance passenger car tyres for
both Apollo and Vredestein brand. Europe operations successfully organised two major
product launches. Apollo Aspire 4G was the first and was unveiled at Geneva
Motor Show. This was closely followed by Vredestein Ultrac Vorti and Sportrac
5, a new range of ultra high performance and high performance tyres, being
showcased in Budapest.
EXPORTS
India operation's
exports grew the most in the light truck cross ply category by almost 29%. The
other major export categories were truck-bus cross ply and passenger car
radials, with a growth of 17% and 19% respectively. Once again, passenger car
tyres emerged as the highest revenue earners in the export basket. A highlight
of the past year was the introduction of truck bus radial tyres in South East
Asian and Middle Eastern markets.
Like the previous
year, in FY12, the company's European operations largely focused on demand
fulfillment in domestic replacement market and there wasn't much remaining for
exports. South African operations saw export contribute a healthy32%to the
revenue pie, an increase of almost 8% over last year.
EXPANSION PROGRAMME/FUTURE OUTLOOK
In FY12, the
company, at its India operations, successfully completed a 20 MT/day expansion
for production of off highway tyres at its Kalamassery unit in Kerala with an
investment of Rs.400 million.
Apollo Tyres' most
recent greenfield facility in Chennai, India is quickly reaching its planned
capacity. Currently, Chennai unit manufactures 8,100 passenger car tyres per
day and 4,200 truck-bus radial tyres per day; production levels are expected to
achieve 16,000 passenger car and 6000 truck-bus radial tyres per day by Q3
FY13.
At Europe
operations, a state-of-the-art mixer was installed at the Company's facility in
Enschede, the Netherlands. This will make the Company self-sufficient in
compound mixing capacity.
To improve product
quality, Apollo Tyres South Africa decided to invest in a world class Steel
Cord Calendaring facility at its manufacturing unit in Ladysmith; it's expected
to go on line by end ofQ2FY13.
Considering the
current economic and business environment, prevailing sentiments in the
industry and consumer expectations, the company is working on various proposals
to augment production capacities to meet the challenges of a rising market
demand.
