INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

We are living in a world where volatility and uncertainty have become the New Normal. We saw a change of government in countries like Tunisia, Egypt, Libya and Vietnam. Once powerful countries in Europe are now fighting for bankruptcy. We have taken growth in the developing part of the world for granted but economic growth in China and India has begun to slow. Companies that were synonymous with their product categories just a few years ago are now no longer in existence. Kodak, the inventor of the digital camera had to wind up its operations, HMV, the British entertainment retailing company and Borders, once the second largest bookstore have shut down due to their inability to evolve their business models with the changing time. Readers’ Digest, Thomson Register are no more !

 

There is another megatrend happening. The World order is changing as economic power shifts from West to East. According to McKinsey study, it took Britain more than 100 years to double its economic output per person during its industrial revolution and the US later took more than 50 years to do the same. More than a century later, China and India have doubled their GDP per capital in 12 and 18 years respectively. By 2020, emerging Asia will become the world’s largest consuming block, overtaking North America.

 

The years after the outbreak of the global financial crisis, the world economy continues to remain fragile. The Indian economy demonstrated remarkable resilience in the initial years of the contagion but finally lost ground last year. GDP growth slowed down. Currency has been weakening. There is a marked deceleration in agriculture, industry and services. Dampening sentiment led to a cut-back in investment as well as private consumption expenditure.  Inflation remained at high levels fuelled by the pressure from the food and fuel sectors. The large fiscal and current account deficit s continued to cause grave concern. It is imperative that India regains its growth trajectory of 8-9 % sooner than later. This is crucially important given the need to create gainful livelihood opportunities for the millions living in poverty as also the large contingent of young people joining the job market every year.

BUSINESS REVIEW:

 

Part of the major markets that they serve showed a lot of uncertainty in the second half of the financial year, particularly the off-highway equipment manufacturing industry and Europe geography. Automotive industry, positively recovering from the global recession, saw demand returning in global engineering resulting in a gradual increase in demand for their key offerings in engineering and PLM IT. Aerospace also showed promise though from a small base.

 

The business segments of the Company – software services, engineering services, products and embedded systems recorded the following trends in the year FY13:

 

• Software services contribution to the top line decreased from 55.45% in FY12 to 55.20% in FY13.

 

• Engineering services contribution to the top line decreased from 39.30 % in FY12 to 39.02 % in FY13.

 

• Products business contribution to the top line increased from 5.3% in FY12 to 5.7% in FY13.

 

The Company’s performance in the four regions in which they operate can be summarized as follows:

 

• USA’s share decreased from 71.3% in FY12 to 65.10% in FY13; a growth of 8% in absolute terms.

 

• Europe’s share of revenue increased from 18.4% in FY12 to 23.89% in FY13; almost two-fold growth in absolute terms which includes revenue consolidated on account of acquisition of 3cap.

 

• APAC’s share increased from 4.2% in FY12 to 4.53% in FY13.

 

• India’s share increased from 6.10% in FY12 to 6.48% in FY13.

 

These numbers reflect the positive demand environment in Europe and investments in India which continue to be their growth markets.

 

Trends in various customer segments that the Company caters to were as follows:

 

• Direct Industrial: Segment share of business Increased from 60.7% in FY12 to 61.94% in FY13. In absolute terms, this segment recorded a growth of 13.82 % over the previous year. (USD 109.62 Mn in FY13 Vs USD 96.31 Mn in FY12)

 

• Strategic Partners: Segment share of business reduced from 6.8% in FY12 to 5.18% in FY13; showing a reduction of 14.51% in absolute terms. (USD 9.04 Mn in FY13 Vs USD 10.72 Mn in FY12)

 

• Software ISVs: Segment share of business Increased from 32.6% in FY12 to 32.88% in FY13. In absolute terms, this segment recorded a growth of 12.62 % over the previous year. (USD 58.20 Mn in FY13 Vs USD 51.68 Mn in FY12)

 

In the coming financial year, their vertical organization and segregated business development focus on farming and hunting accounts will help us build closer customer relationships. Their investments in embedded systems, new IP based solutions with partners and their consulting capabilities are poised to provide comprehensive solutions for their identified accounts globally. They expect better growth coming from Europe, especially in PLM IT over the next year.

 

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS REPORT

 

BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT AND OUTLOOK:

 

Subject operates in the Engineering to Manufacturing space and predominantly for the engineering intensive discrete manufacturing industries. Their services, solutions and technology portfolio referred to as Engineering Services in the discussion and analysis report, covering product realization services and solutions, such as Product Lifecycle Management, Software Product Development and Global Engineering services aims to increase the effectiveness and efficiency of design, engineering and manufacturing business processes for firms across the globe.

 

FY13 saw Geometrics’ major markets start positively on a recovery path from the global recession. However the economic uncertainties and slower than expected progress particularly in the capital intensive equipment industry called for some mid-year plateau in demand. While discretionary budgets were under pressure, the positive part is that forward looking decisions and strategic initiatives in global engineering are resulting in a gradual increase in demand for their key offerings going into the new financial year.

 

The automotive industry, an important market for Subject, saw its R and D spend remain flat over the past year. A large part of the R and D investments is spent on technologies to reduce emissions, improve engine efficiency and performance and towards making cars safer. On the operational side the focus has been on making the organization more efficient, supporting globalization and industry level collaboration. A new trend emerged where the industry saw more direct OEM – OEM collaboration. This has provided opportunities for Subject to strengthen its engagements with leading automotive OEMs. Subject is favourably placed to provide solutions for the OEMs’ needs of extended collaboration and supporting their IT needs globally. The automotive OEMS in China are another area of opportunity as they open up to implement solutions for world class processes. The automotive industry is certainly promising with opportunities for Subject, however given the industry’s sourcing maturity and the economic uncertainties that the industry continues to balance, it would also put pressure on prices.

 

The Off-highway Equipment (Construction, Agriculture and Mining) industry began the previous year with the highest level of order backlogs. But each sub-segment saw a different trajectory as they progressed through the year. The construction industry remained subdued with very minor investment growth, the agriculture industry continued on a very organic growth path while the mining industry was hit with a severe downturn and the segment lost almost half of its order book. The industry on the whole has regrouped and cost cutting programs are being driven across the board. Having faced the short-term burnt, there is an opportunity for Subject to capitalize and provide solutions to their customers to help take out cost from their products, product development processes, manufacturing processes and global collaboration. Global engineering services and engineering productivity needs of the industry will strengthen even more providing us the opportunity to serve the industry locally in regions like China and India.

 

Aerospace is Geometric’s strategic growth market. The commercial aircraft sector continued to trend upwards in building upon its production momentum. Commercial aircraft demand is expected to expand over the next many years given the economic growth in emerging markets, demand for fuel-efficient planes and engine technologies. The aviation industry has an old fleet with poor economics and fuel efficiency which the industry expects to retire and replace 6,000 aircrafts in the next 15 years. The industry lead by the aircraft OEMS is pushing the speed of R and D and this is driving parallel activity increases in the aerospace supply chain, from engines, to avionics, to wiring harnesses, passenger seats and landing gear among others opening up large scale engineering opportunities. To gear up towards this major players in the industry are looking at simplifying and modernizing their IT landscapes leading to opportunities for Subject. Though the sales cycles will continue to be stretched, Subject is well positioned to address the market needs emerging particularly from Europe. The modernization of India’s air defense systems will further provide opportunities to help global companies address their offset obligations. The biggest area of R and D and new development across industries is electronics and embedded systems. The acquired capabilities of 3Cap technologies provides us the foundation to benefit from serving the growing electronics needs of their established customer base while continuing to strengthen the engagements with new customers brought in with 3Cap.

 

Partnerships with major software products providers for the engineering domain, whether for multi-year turnkey software product development programs or for co-development of new solutions continues to be Geometric’s strength. A strong governance model with their software partners to serve the end customer together will be key to their success.

 

In the manufacturing industry at large, the restructuring measures and process improvement programs are now extending to global locations and continue to drive IT and engineering outsourcing with focus to leverage the provider’s strengths in multiple geographical locations. Research and Development will continue for green technologies and localization of products for the new growth market. All of these trends are poised to deepen and widen the opportunities available for Subject.

 

OUTLOOK:

 

The Company had launched a number of strategic initiatives in the year and plans to build on these to achieve continuous improvement and steady business performance in the coming year.

PRESS RELEASE:

 

 

GEOMETRIC TO SHOWCASE ITS AUTOMATION SOLUTIONS AT EMO 2013

 

TO DEMONSTRATE THE LATEST VERSIONS OF CAMWORKS® AND DFMPRO®

 

 MUMBAI, INDIA; SCOTTSDALE, AZ; AND STUTTGART, GERMANY, AUGUST 29, 2013: Geometric Limited, a leader in developing advanced manufacturing software will preview the latest enhancements for DFMPro, its automated design validation tool and CAMWorks, its intuitive solids-based CNC programming solution at Booth # J09, Hall 25 at EMO 2013, Hanover, Germany from September 16-21, 2013. With the focus on providing customers with the most effective tools to reduce time to market, Geometric presents solutions that focus on reducing non-value add time right from the design stage to manufacturing process planning and final shop floor delivery.

 

Geometric will showcase its award-winning product DFMPro, a unique solution that identifies and enables designers to fix manufacturability related issues at the design stage itself. Today, design engineers spend around 30% or more time on rework due to an iterative product development process, which impacts costs and time to market. Organizations, typically, have manual design review processes, which include filling checklists, referring handbooks and one-to-one discussions that differ from department to department. Most of these manual checks are time consuming and error prone. DFMPro comes with global best practices in the area of manufacturability and assembly, along with a powerful framework to add an organization’s in-house best practices. This allows design engineers to save time on design reviews and rework, and utilize such time in creating innovative products.

 

Moving from design validation to toolpath validation, a key differentiation Geometric brings with its CAM solution, CAMWorks is the availability of true G-code machine simulation. The standard machine simulation technology prevalent in the market typically simulates based on CL data only. CAMWorks Virtual Machine Module goes beyond ‘look good’ simulation and allows users to create first-time-right NC programs for complex multi-tasking machines and simulate post processed G-code seamlessly within one system saving shop floor time and improving throughput.

 

EMO visitors will also get a chance to see CAMWorks VoluMill™ in action on a Haas milling machine at Geometric’s booth. This ultra-high performance toolpath has provided cycle time savings of as much as 80% while maintaining tool life. This has been made possible by maintaining uniform chip formation and superior heat dissipation.

 

ABOUT CAMWORKS

 

CAMWorks, a parametric, solids based CNC programming software system, brings in a revolutionary way to help machinists around the world to program fast and machine faster. CAMWorks significantly reduces programming time and removes the drudgery from CNC programming by using patented Feature Recognition technology in conjunction with full toolpath to solid-model associativity and knowledge-based machining. Besides ease-of-programming using CAMWorks, organizations can be assured of the most efficient toolpaths using CAMWorks VoluMill to maintain their competitive edge in the marketplace.

 

ABOUT DFMPRO

 

DFMPro is a design assistant solution for validating designs from manufacturing point of view right at the design stage. It automates manufacturability checks, which helps design and manufacturing engineers validate the design quickly. DFMPro assists identification of design areas that are difficult, expensive or impossible to manufacture, assemble and service. It works on the principle of ‘Right First Time’ by validating manufacturability guidelines right at the design stage. These guidelines can be easily configured as per organizational requirements in the form of rules. It also facilitates a collaborative design environment by generating reports, which are compact and easy to share.

ASSEMBLY, SERVICEABILITY, WARRANTY, QUALITY AND OTHERS

 

MUMBAI, INDIA, AUGUST 20, 2013: Geometric Limited (BSE: 532312, NSE: GEOMETRIC), a leader in Product Lifecycle Management (PLM), Global Engineering Services, and Offshore Software Product Development (OSPD) solutions and technologies, today announced the launch of Geometric DFX, a standalone application for carrying out DFX validation of product designs. Geometric DFX is powered by Geometric’s award-winning design for manufacturability solution DFMPro® and leverages the CGM 3D modeling kernel from Spatial Corp., a leading provider of 3D components for technical application development. Spatial’s 3D InterOp is also used to enable data reuse for native CATIA® V5 and other leading CAD formats.

 

DFX stands for Design for X where X represents various downstream process checks related to manufacturability, assembly, quality, warranty, penalty, serviceability, environment, reliability and so on. It is essential to incorporate various DFX guidelines early in the product development phase to reduce defects, cut down rework, eliminate waste, shorten time to market and save costs. Traditionally, organizations have been using manual DFX checks, which are time consuming and error prone. Geometric DFX addresses this problem by enabling designers to validate 3D CAD data using design rules based on global best practices for various downstream issues as listed above.

 

“Geometric DFX automates the process of DFX validation in a standalone package early during the design stage, thereby cutting down the long review process and identification of downstream issues. It improves the productivity of design and manufacturing engineers as well as enhances collaboration between them to reduce cost, improve quality and time to market”, said Mr. Sameer Kondejkar, Sr. Director and Head, Geometry Technology Solutions Business at Geometric.

 

Geometric DFX supports CAD formats from CATIA V5, Inventor® and others. Geometric DFX comes prepackaged with around 100 design rules based on global best practices and can be customized to add organization specific best practices too. The various manufacturing processes currently supported include machining, casting, injection molding, and sheet metal fabrication.
