Comments :

Subject is an established company having a moderate track record.

 

There appears drastic dip in the net profitability during 2012. External borrowings seems to be increasing over previous year bearing high interest cost which acts as a threat to the liquidity.

 

More over, GIL has decided to approach its bankers through the corporate debt restructuring process for restructuring the company’s debt.

 

However, trade relations are fair. Business is active. Payment terms are reported as slow but correct.

 

The company can be considered for business dealings with some caution.

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE AND OPERATIONS:

 

The year was a difficult period for the construction industry and for the Company. With fewer projects to bid for the order booking was sluggish. Competition continued to be intense due to low entry barriers resulting in smaller players underquoting to capture the projects. Further government inaction, delays in awarding projects, delays in clearances by various government agencies, bureaucratic apathy, rising inflation leading to an increase in prices of major construction raw materials such as steel, cement, bitumen leading to price escalation in contracts, squeeze on liquidity caused by higher interest costs, leading to delay in projects and delay in timely recoveries from clients all had a dampening effect on the overall performance of the Company. The impact led to pressures on the working capital and resulted in higher debt.

 

The Turnover of the Company on a Standalone basis stood at Rs.55330.000 Millions for the year ended 31st March, 2012 (Rs.55580.000 Millions previous year). Operating Profit (PBDIT) amounted to Rs.4600.000 Millions (Rs.2210.000 Millions previous year). After providing Rs.1020.000 Millions (Rs.920.000 Millions for the previous year) towards depreciation and Rs.650.000 Millions (Rs.580.000 Millions previous year) towards tax for current and deffered taxation, the net profit amounted to Rs.870.000 Millions (Rs.1180.000 Millions previous year). The annualized percentage decrease in turnover over previous year amounted to 0.04%. The order book position of the Company as on 31st March, 2012 stood at Rs.150780.000 Millions.

 

On a consolidated basis the turnover of the Gammon group stood at Rs.80380.000 Millions for the year ended 31st March, 2012. The annualized percentage decrease in turnover over previous year amounted to 8%. The group made a Loss of Rs.1051.400 Millions for the year ended 31st March, 2012 as compared to a Profit of Rs.1100.200 Millions in the previous year. This was mainly on account of increase in interest costs due to higher borrowings.

 

The recessionary trends in the infrastructure sector continues in the current financial year 2012-13. The Company has posted a Loss of Rs.196.100 Millions during the first quarter ended 30th June, 2012 . The Company has taken several critical steps for improving its funds flow, including strong austerity measures across the Company, the effects of which will be seen in the current financial year.

 

 

FINANCE:

 

During the year under review the Company did not raise any funds from the capital markets either by way of issue of equity/ADR/GDR The Company has obtained financial assistance from its consortium bankers to meet its short term working capital requirements.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

OVERVIEW OF GAMMON GROUP

Gammon India is amongst the largest infrastructure construction companies in India. Its track record spans significant landmark projects built over several decades, with a prominent presence across all sectors of civil engineering, design and construction. Besides its large scale of operations in the Construction and Infrastructure domain, Gammon has a dominant presence in energy business in which it operates in the hydro, nuclear and thermal power sectors. Gammon's projects cover businesses and projects involving highways, public utilities, environmental engineering and marine structures. Gammon's expertise also covers the design, financing, construction and operation of modern bridges, viaducts, and metro rail, both on a Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) basis as well as contract execution. Gammon is also active in the Social Infrastructure sector through its operations in the realty project segment. Gammon overseas ventures includes a majority holding in Franco Tosi Meccanica, SAE Power lines and Sofinter group, Italy spanning the sectors of power and industrial boilers as well as waste and environment management systems.

 

ECONOMIC OVERVIEW, INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENT:

India's infrastructure sector continues to be a key driver of the nation's economic progress. In fact, infrastructure has emerged as a key driver for sustaining the robust growth of the economy and the government has been focusing on development of infrastructure. The Indian economy was estimated to grow by 6 % in 2011-12, after having grown at the rate of 8.4 % in each of the two preceding years. This indicates slowdown compared not just to the previous two years but 2003 to 2011 (except 2008-09). With agriculture and services continuing to perform well, India's slowdown can be attributed almost entirely to weakening industrial growth. Monetary policy was tightened by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) during the year to control inflation and curb inflationary expectations. The global economic environment, which has been tenuous at best throughout the year, turned sharply adverse in September 2011 owing to the turmoil in the Eurozone, and questions about the outlook on the US economy provoked by rating agencies. There is no doubt that a part of India's slowdown is rooted in domestic causes. The persistent inflation that remained over 9 % for much of the year and needed to be tamed played a role.

 

An analysis of the creation of infrastructure in physical terms indicates that while the achievements in some sectors have been remarkable during the Eleventh Plan as compared to the previous Five-year Plans, there have been slippages in some sectors. The success in garnering private-sector investment in infrastructure through the public-private partnership (PPP) route during the Plan has laid solid foundation for a substantial step up in private-sector funding incoming years. PPPs are expected to augment resource availability as well as improve the efficiency of infrastructure service delivery.

 

REVEW OF OPERATIONS :

The year under review was a difficult period for the construction industry and for the Company. With fewer projects to bid for the order booking was sluggish. Competition continued to be intense due to low entry barriers resulting in smaller players underquoting to capture the projects. Further government inaction, delays in awarding projects, delays in clearances by various government agencies, bureaucratic apathy, rising inflation leading to an increase in prices of major construction raw materials such as steel, cement, bitumen leading to price escalation in contracts , squeeze on liquidity caused by higher interest costs, leading to delays in projects, and delays in timely recoveries from clients all had a dampening effect on the overall performance of the company. The impact led to pressures on the working capital and resulted in higher debt .

 

The turnover of the company on a standalone basis stood at Rs.55330.000 Millions for the year ended 31st March, 2012 Rs.55580.000 Millions previous year). Operating profit (PBDIT) amounted to Rs.4600.000 Millions (Rs.2210.000 Millions previous year). After providing Rs.1020.000 Millions (Rs.920.000 Millions for the previous year) towards depreciation and Rs.650.000 Millions (Rs.580.000 Millions previous year) towards tax for current and differed taxation, the net profit amounted to Rs.870.000 Millions (Rs.1180.000 Millions previous year). The annualized percentage decrease in turnover over previous year amounted to 0.04%.

 

On a consolidated basis the turnover of the Gammon group stood at Rs.80380.000 Millions for the year ended 31st March, 2012. The annualized percentage decrease in turnover over previous year amounted to 8%. The group made a loss of Rs.1051.400 Millions for the year ended 31st March, 2012 as compared to a Profit of Rs.1100.200 Millions. This was mainly on account of increase in interest costs due to higher borrowings.

 

The order book position of the company as on 31st March, 2012 stood at Rs.150780.000 Millions.

 

The recessionary trends in the infrastructure sector continues in the current financial year 2012-13. The company has posted a loss of Rs.196.100 Millions during the first quarter ended 30th June, 2012. The woes of the construction sector continue and have only been aggravated by recent directives issued by the Ministry of Finance to the banks prohibiting them from extending unsecured short term loans to corporates which were earlier easily available to the construction sector. This has severely affected the company's liquidity position and led to slowdown in execution of projects across most sites. The company has taken several critical steps for improving its funds flow, including several austerity measures across the company, the effects of which will be seen in the current financial year.

 

The company has approached its lenders for converting its short term unsecured borrowings to long term secured borrowings. In the process, the company is also looking towards divesting its non core assets and management is confident that before the end of the current financial year significant progress will be achieved to overcome the current situation.

 

SPECTRUM OF ACTIVITY AND REVIEW OF PERFORMANCE:

 

1.    Transport Engineering:

The Company is engaged in the design and construction of projects spanning roads, bridges, flyovers, metro railway systems, marine structures, ports and airports.

 

(a) Roads:

 

India has one of the world's largest road networks of 4.2 million km consisting of national highways, state highways, major district roads and rural roads. National highways carry 40% of the total traffic but constitute 2% of India's road network. State highways and rural and urban roads, comprise the rest. About 65% of freight and 85% passenger traffic is carried by the roads. About 22% of the total length of National Highways (NHs) is single lane/ intermediate lane, about 53% is two lane standard, and the balance 25% is four lane standard or more. In 2011-12, the achievement under various phases of the NHDP up to December 2011 has been about 1,250 km and projects have been awarded for a total length of about 4,374.9 km. Several initiatives have been proposed by the Government to upgrade and strengthen National Highways, to build expressways in high and dense traffic segments and to improve the quality of roads. Foremost amongst such initiatives is the National Highways Development Project (NHDP), covering a length over 55,000 km. On the policy front, initiatives like pre-qualifications of bidders on an annual basis rather than project-wise document submission have helped to expedite the bidding process. All these initiatives have increased the scope of work for the Company as an EPC Contractor. The Company is looking forward to participating in these projects However progress in the roads and highways sector has remained slow during the financial year ended 2012 mainly due to delays in land acquisition and environmental and forest clearances, labour issues and local law and order problems. Several initiatives have been taken for resolving these issues and it is expected that during the Twelfth Plan road construction work will pick up.

 

In the face of stiff competition the Company secured the following projects during the year :

(b)   Bridges, Metro Viaducts and Flyovers:

In India, urban population is expected to increase by at least 300 million, equalizing to 100 more new cities. This growing population in the urban cities has led to deterioration in the physical environment and quality of life. Road space and public transport is inadequate for the growing urban population. Traffic congestion has become the bane of most metropolitan cities in India. The demand on urban infrastructure has reached an unprecedented level. Government has decided to develop infrastructure to meet the basic needs of growing urban population by giving a boost to Bridges, Flyovers, Metro Rail and Mono Rail projects in almost all metropolitan cities of the country. The Dedicated Freight Corridor Corporation is a Special Purpose Vehicle set up under the administrative control of Ministry of Railways of India and will offer new opportunities for bridges, rail track laying, signaling and telecommunications approximately valued at Rs.50000.000 Millions. Cities like Delhi, Kolkata and Bangalore have already called for extension of Metro Rail Projects, where the company is aggressively bidding for and securing Metro rail jobs.

(c) PORTS

India has a 7,517 km long coastline with a total of 13 major and 187 minor ports spread across nine maritime states. It has one of the largest merchant shipping fleets and is ranked 16th amongst maritime countries. In terms of volume, it carries about 95% of India's overseas cargo and, in terms of value, it carries about 75% of the overseas cargo. The Ministry of Shipping has set a target of awarding projects to create 244 MT of additional capacity at ports in 2012-13 to accommodate increasing traffic. This will be spread across 42 projects at an estimated cost of Rs.145000.000 Millions. The port sector has strong growth potential. State Governments have played a huge role in encouraging domestic and foreign private players to enter the sector by providing a favourable investment climate and additional standard operating procedures.

POWER SECTOR- ECONOMIC SCENARIO

Availability and access to energy are considered as catalysts for economic growth. India is the fifth largest producer and consumer of electricity in the world after US, China, Japan and Russia. Electricity production in India (excluding captive generation) stood at 877 billion units (bu) in 2011-12. Growing population, increasing penetration and per capita usage has further provided the impetus, in addition to the expansion in industrial activity, to boost electricity consumption. The National Electricity Policy envisages "Power for all by 2012" and per capita availability of power to be increased to over 1,000 units. With reference to the Ministry of Power's reports the Working Group on Power has recommended a plan size of about 82,200 MW for Twelfth Plan also. This would comprise hydro projects totaling about 30,000 MW, thermal projects totaling 42,200 MW and nuclear projects of about 10,000 MW capacities. Eying at the above said scenario, there are good business opportunities to capitalize on the growth in the industry.

 

(a)    Thermal power :

In the present situation thermal power generation is 65% of the total power generation capacity. Government is encouraging private players to be partners in the power sector development and sector is de-licensed. The participation of private players in the thermal power sector has made the sector more attractive to target and shown a growth potential for the company.

 

Some of the thermal power projects currently being executed by the company are as follows :

 

1.       Civil Works and Structural Works for 3300 Mw TPP at Tiroda, Maharashtra valued at Rs.3500.000 Millions.

2.       Main Plant and Offsite Civil works Pkg. Vallur TPP, Tamilnadu valued at Rs.4460.000 Millions.

3.       Civil and Structural Steel Works for 2 X 600 MW TPP near Tuticorin in Tamilnadu valued at Rs.4000.000 Millions.

4.       GCW and Chimney for 2x600 MW TPP at Angul valued at Rs.2950.000 Millions.

 

The general outlook of the sector is positive with availability of quality resources and competent human resource. The sector is becoming highly competitive as the risks involved are minimal. Timely delivery, quality, cost and safety are the essence to succeed in this sector. At the same time it is a challenge to ensure availability of new contracts.

 

(b)    Hydro power :

India's energy portfolio today depends heavily on coal-based thermal energy, with hydropower accounting for only 26% of total power generation. Though government is emphasizing on the development of this renewable energy sector, there are many road blocks for conceiving any new Hydro electric project. The main reasons for the slow development are difficult and inaccessible potential sites, land acquisition and rehabilitation, environmental clearance, forest related issues, inter-state issues, geological surprises and contractual issues. A multi-pronged strategy has been adopted to harness the hydropotential resources in the country. Some of the policy measures and initiatives taken by the government are finalization of an investor-friendly New Hydro Policy 2008, a liberal National Rehabilitation and Resettlement Policy, and a 50,000 MW Hydroelectric Initiative and Mega Power Project Policy. All the provisions of Hydro Policy 2008 including merchant sale up to a maximum of 40% of the saleable energy is now applicable to all developers, i.e. private as well as public. Further cost plus tariff regime has been extended for public as well as private-sector hydro-power projects up to December 2015. During the year under review the Company secured two prestigious hydro project packages in Bhutan through international competitive bidding viz :

(c)     Nuclear Power :

India has a flourishing and largely indigenous nuclear power program and expects to have 20,000 MW nuclear capacity on line by 2020 and 63,000 MW by 2032. It aims to supply 25% of electricity from nuclear power by 2050. Because India is outside the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, it was for34 years largely excluded from trade in nuclear plant or materials, which has hampered development of civil nuclear energy until 2009. Due to these trade bans and lack of indigenous uranium, India has uniquely been developing a nuclear fuel cycle to exploit its reserves of Thorium. Now, foreign technology and fuel are expected to boost India's nuclear power plans considerably. All plants will have high indigenous engineering content. India has a vision of becoming a world leader in nuclear technology due to its expertise in fast reactors and Thorium fuel cycle.

 

There are huge developments happening in recent years and Company already has the prequalification criteria to secure the new contracts. Gammon has completed the civil works of fast breeder reactor at Kalpakkam and other BOP structures.

WATER AND ENVIRONMENT:

Urban population in India is projected to increase to 598 million in the year 2031 and the share of urban population is projected to increase from 31.2% in 2011 to about 40% in 2030. Continued demographic shift from rural to urban areas and rapid urbanization are posing a huge challenge in terms of creation and maintenance of minimum level of infrastructure and services. There is a need to upgrade urban infrastructure such as water supply, sewerage, solid waste management, urban roads, storm water drains etc.

 

Over the last five years, the Central and State Government has increased project investment in Water Supply Scheme at an annual rate of about 10%. Coastal cities, not supported by adequate natural potable water resources, are now looking at the option of Desalination of Sea Water. State Government of Maharashtra proposes to launch "Maharashtra Sujal and Nirmal Abhiyan (MSNA)" to ensure universal access to water supply and sanitation services.

 

During the year under review the Company under the JNNURM Scheme on DBO basis secured from BUIDCO the Project for Design, Construction, Installation, Commissioning, Management, Operation and Maintenance of Intake, RWPH, 220 MLD Water Treatment Plant and Water Supply Distribution Network in Patna (Bihar) aggregating to Rs.5488.300 Millions which will be executed through an SPV named 'Patna Water Supply Distribution Network Private Limited'.

 

Gammon has successfully executed challenging jobs and is hence able to meet stringent requirements in this segment for future jobs. An order booking target of Rs.5000.000 Millions is set accordingly for this sector, with a targeted turnover of around Rs.3500.000 Millions for FY 2012-13.

CHIMNEYS AND COOLING TOWERS:

Construction of Cooling towers and chimneys are high technology driven jobs and highly specialized activity. These structures are an integral part of the various industrial infrastructures like Power plants, Petroleum, Steel, Chemical, Sugar plants etc. Gammon is the leader in the construction of cooling towers and chimneys. The Company has in house technical capability and has a competent execution team who can build these highly specialized structures within time and budget maintaining highest quality and safety standards. Gactel Turnkey Projects Limited (GTPL) a wholly own subsidiary of Gammon India Limited has established itself as a complete solution provider for cooling tower constructions. The R and D department at GTPL is continuously working to improve the efficiency of the structures being created by Gammon. The value of work executed during the current year is X 762 crore and as on 1st April 2012 the value of work in hand is Rs. 13900.000 Millions.

 

TRANSMISSION AND DISTRIBUTION BUSINESS:

The Eleventh Five Year Plan emphasised the need for removing infrastructure bottlenecks for sustained growth. The Government has proposed an investment of US $500 billion in infrastructure sectors through a mix of public and private sectors to reduce deficits in identified infrastructure sectors. The private sector is expected to be contributing nearly 36% of this investment. To cater to the ever growing power consumption, rapid industrialisation and huge energy deficit, the Government of India has planned to make large capital expenditure in the Eleventh Five Year Plan in the Power Generation, Transmission and Distribution segments and set a target of adding about 78000 MW of additional capacity of power generation in the Eleventh Five Year Plan and about 82000 MW capabilities of power generation in the Twelfth Five Year Plan. This will enable the Company to cater to the ever growing demand of power transmission and distribution.

 

The power sector in India has an estimated capacity addition of more than 1,60,000 MW during the period 2012-17. In order to provide availability of over 1,000 units of per capita electricity by the year 2012, the fund requirement for transmission system development and related schemes during Eleventh Five Year Plan period has been estimated as follows :

 

Sector

Value

 (Rs. In Millions )

Central

750000.000

State

650000.000

Total

1400000.000

 

The Planning Commission, in its approach paper has projected an investment of over Rs.45 Lakh crore during the Twelfth Plan (2012-17). It is projected that atleast 50% of this investment will come from the private sector against the 36% anticipated in Eleventh Plan and public sector investment will need to increase to over Rs. 22.5 lakh crore as against an expenditure of Rs.13.1 lakh crore during the Eleventh Plan. Financing infrastructure will, therefore, be a big challenge in the coming years and will require some innovative ideas and new models of financing. This entails expansion of transmission networks, strengthening of regional grids, building of more inter-related links and addition of inter-regional capacities of 23,600 MW, at 220 KV and above level. Opportunities also exist for the company in Build-Own-Operate-Transfer (BOT) projects for setting up transmission line.

 

Distribution:

R-APDRP and RGGVY schemes are expected to accelerate investment in the power distribution sector. The Government has set aside Rs.20800.000 Millions in the current budget under the APDRP Scheme as compared to Rs.8000.000 Millions for last year for bringing about improvement in the urban power distribution sector. The RGGVY scheme aims to bring about access to electricity to all rural households by the year 2012.

 

The T and D business of the Company mainly works with Powergrid, SEBs and Private sector clients on EPC basis.

The Company has set up a world class Tower Testing Station at Deoli and Wardha, Maharashtra capable of testing towers up to 1200 kv. The Tower Testing station has been acclaimed by domestic as well as international clients from the United States of America, Canada, Malaysia, Mexico etc. and the Company has successfully tested towers up to 765 kv. R and D Centre set up at Deoli and Wardha is duly recognised by Department of Science and Technology, Government of India as Research and Development Centre.

 

The Company has also been expanding to overseas countries such as the United States of America, Canada, Algeria, Kenya, Afghanistan, Ethiopia, Bhutan, Nigeria, Ghana, Sri Lanka, Oman, Rwanda, Botswana, Tanzania, Mozambique etc. and has been successful in penetrating Canadian markets with tower supply orders.

 

During the year 2011-12, projects worth X 975 crore, which includes 248 km of 765 Transmission lines, 670 kms of 400 kv lines of Powergird Corporation of India and 151 km of 220 kv Transmission lines for State Electricity Board were completed.

 

The Company has ISO 9001: 2008, ISO 14000:2004 and ISO 18001:2007 certifications for "Design, Development, Manufacture, Supply and Construction of Overhead Transmission Line for Turnkey Projects including Sub-station Structures, Microwave Towers and Similar structures" by an internationally reputed certification agency viz. Det Norske Veritas (DNV), Netherlands.

 

The ISO Certifications have enabled the Company to project a better image and inspire greater confidence amongst its clients. The certification continues to be authenticated by DNV through their audits every year.

 

INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS :

 

Sofinter group

The consolidated Financial Statements of Sofinter Group as of 31st December 2011 showed a loss of Euro 1.9 million and would have been positive but for the one-time extra-ordinary charges of Euro 2.4 million.

 

In this difficult moment, with an unfavorable economic situation in which both industrial and financial markets are showing clear signs of downturn, the Sofinter Group has succeeded in achieving turn-around. The Group's debt situation improved drastically, as the careful management of projects allowed for a substantial recovery of current assets invested.

 

The Management implemented an internal restructuring plan, by way of cost reduction and rationalization of operational structure. A new partner B.T. Global Investors Limited subscribed shares in Sofinter S.p.A. bringing in Euro 18 million in cash. In November, 2011 the Group entered into an agreement to modify the Interbank Agreement originally signed in 2009, which facilitated the Group with incremental credit lines of € 50 million and opened up earlier closed lines sufficient to carry out the Industrial Plan for the period 2012-14.

 

Sofinter - Macchi and SWS Division

Operating value of production increased from € 108 million to € 126 million demonstrating the recovery of sales achieved by the Macchi Division of Sofinter.

 

The business activity in 2011 led to a substantial consolidation of market position, with significant acquisitions from important global customers including Petrobras-Brasile and Sembcorp-Singapore.

 

Today, the Macchi Division's leadership in the large-scale industrial boilers sector is recognized and consolidated at the international level.

 

Continuous attention is also dedicated by the Company to post-sales service, understood as both a service for the customer and also a business opportunity.

 

The SWS Division is dedicated to the business of water treatment for industrial use. This business includes plants for Alteration, demineralization, degassing and principally desalination of sea water with MED technology.

Sales activities in 2011 were principally directed to providing various offers to international EPC contractors. Currently, the business areas showing the greatest interest are the Middle East and South America, areas in which commercial negotiations are underway with good prospects for success.

 

The project portfolio as of 31st December 2011 for Macchi and SWS Division amounts to approximately € 168 million.

 

Ansaldo Caldaie S.p.A.

The Financial Statements as of 31st December 2011 show a production value of € 110 million, with a loss of € 1.3 million.

 

Despite difficult market and global financial difficulties, Ansaldo Caldaie S.p.A. has continued with its intense sales activities, and its backlog of offers awaiting awards has reached a significant level. Production activities continued regularly, both at the factory and at worksites, and the Company reached the production levels set by the contractual milestones. As regards the profitability of projects, the levels were maintained and in some cases also exceeded the anticipated levels.

 

This year the Company achieved its planned EBITDA due to positive performance on its existing contracts, good performance of its service and business and careful management of overhead costs. The future looks promising with high demand expected as the Global Financial and Political situation improves. Steps were taken to solidify the Company's infrastructure to position it to address the market in the medium to long term.

 

The Company's reputation in the market for having a strong, sound, technology base and good delivery capability remains very positive. This will help secure future orders. In India the Company faced a minor setback when the Supreme Court reversed the High Court's decision on its qualification for NTPC projects based on a technicality. In 2012 the Company will work together with NTPC to overcome this issue and be in a position to bid for their future projects.

 

The area of growth has been in the order intake of Service business which has grown by approximately 2.5 times from a year ago. The spare parts business is almost the same year on year. The area of growth has been in foreign markets with the share in the Italian market declining with regard to the previous year.

The project portfolio as of 31st December 2011 amounts to approximately € 116 million.

 

Europower

This is a major step for ITEA technology, the benefits of which will be known in the near future.

 

Franco Tosi Meccanica S.p.A. (FTM)

Despite the poor macroeconomic scenario, the year 2011 has shown an increased value of production by 12.4% from € 68.3 million in the previous year to € 76.8 million. Despite best efforts FTM missed revenue of atleast € 30 million due to continued lack of working capital credit lines. The operating margin (EBIT) for the financial year 2011 shows a significant improvement compared to the previous year, going from a negative result of € 9.7 million to a positive value of € 3.7 million.

 

The company in 2011, has continued to confirm its role as a quality manufacturer of power generation equipment as well as consolidated its presence in the rehabilitation of existing plants, particularly in the markets of Central Africa and South/Central America.

 

Overall the financial results of 2011 marks a significant improvement over the previous year and has set the company firmly back on course to recovery. The effective order back log is € 139 million.

 

While the recession has delayed the investments and subdued the macro economic dynamics, the global outlook for the energy market does not vary far from the preceding forecasts in the longer run. It is expected that the burgeoning population in Central and South African countries, would eventually leverage their vast natural resources and will fuel the growth of power sector. Mature markets are expected to resort to life extension and rehabilitation investments in their ageing power plants in the short and medium term.

 

The implementation of the internal plan involving activities to improve performance of production is in progress, with the aim to :

-          Reduce costs

-          Improve Quality

-          Improve the service granted to the Client.

 

During the year the positive impacts of the said plan could be perceived, despite a still difficult market situation

 

SAE Power Lines S.r.L.

The Company in 2011, recorded a turnover of € 43.72 million, an EBITDA of € 0.3 million and PAT of € (1.65 million). Further, the order book at the end of the financial year was € 55 million. Additionally the company is well positioned on its bids which are approximately in the range of € 100 million.

 

The activities of the Company relating to the fabrication and erection of transmission towers and lines showed modest growth. This is despite the pressure on liquidity and turmoil in the global markets. However the prospects over the medium to long-term especially in markets in North East and West Africa are encouraging as also in the emerging markets including India, Brazil and the Middle East. The Company is also continuing its focus on opportunities in the United States of America as well as Mexico.

 

Campo Puma Oriente S.A.

The Puma Block Contract signed in March 2008 for a 20 year term, originally established as a Production Sharing Contract underwent a contract renegotiation process to migrate to the newly established Service Contract model implemented by the Hydrocarbon Ministry in Ecuador in 2010. The new contractual framework entitles the contractor to a dollar-per-barrel fee which is adjusted on a yearly basis based on the production price index, as reported by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Minimum Work Program obligations of the operator under the service contract, however, remain unchanged.

 

The Puma Block Service Contract was signed and registered on 1st Feb, 2011 for a 18 year term.

 

As at the end of financial year 2011 a cumulative amount of USD 61 Million has been invested by both partners in the development of the Puma Field. The Development activities included drilling of seven new wells, installation of production facilities, and work-over operations. The Puma Field is producing an average of 2,000 barrels of oil per day (2012 average). The Puma Field has Proved Reserves of 8.2 million barrels, probable reserves in the order of 1.46 million barrels, and 4 exploratory prospects with excellent potential.

 

After a process that lasted 15 months, on February 2011 Consorcio Pegaso was awarded the ISO 14001 environmental certification by BUREAU-VERITAS™. These efforts have strengthened the relationship with environmental authorities and is a major accreditation accorded to very few Companies in the region.

 

REAL ESTATE BUSINESS :

Real estate plays a critical role in the development of the Indian economy. It is the second largest employer after agriculture. Over the next decade, the real estate sector is expected to grow by 30%. The sector is divided into four sub-sectors: housing, retail, hospitality, and commercial. The housing sub-sector contributes 5-6% to the country's gross domestic product (GDP). Meanwhile, retail, hospitality and commercial real estate are also growing significantly, catering to India's growing needs of infrastructure. The construction industry ranks third among the 14 major sectors in terms of direct, indirect and induced effects in all sectors of the economy, according to a study done by ICRA. A unit increase in expenditure in this sector has a multiplier effect and the capacity to generate income as high as five times. The positive effects of growth in real estate sector are spread over more than 250 ancillary industries. The Indian real estate market size is expected to touch USD 180 billion by 2020.

 

Recent growth in the Indian economy has stimulated demand for land and developed real estate across industries. Demand for residential, commercial and retail real estate is rising throughout India, accompanied by increased demand for hotel accommodation and improved social infrastructure. Further, presence of a large number of Fortune 500 and other reputed companies will attract more companies to initiate their operational bases in India thus, creating more demand for corporate space.

Contracting is generally trade specific as it is more tax efficient and the emergence of new tax laws shall give newer opportunities for general contracting with increased responsibility and trade volume. Gammon India Limited has during the year secured projects in the buildings sector valued at Rs.15000.000 Millions spread across Mumbai and Bangalore region. The major clients include Runwal Group, Iskcon, Sattva Group and Godrej to name a few.

Ø       Runwal Elegant, a high-rise residential development at Andheri, Mumbai.

Ø       Godrej Platinum, Bangalore a turnkey development of high end residential complex for Godrej Buildwell Private Limited.
