PERFORMANCE:

 

The company could increase the production/sale of all its major products during the year resulting in its gross turnover registering an increase of 26% (as against 20% during the previous year) to touch an all time high of Rs. 3150.000 Millions. Both favourable exchange rate movements as well as increase in unit sales realization had played a key support role in accomplishing the said growth in turnover.

 

Inclusive of the impact of the favourable forex movements during the current year, increase in Gelatin selling price was 30% (previous year 18%) and 11% for Ossein (25% in previous year). In the case of Dicalcium Phosphate, the increase was 13% (previous year 10%) and 11% for Collagen Peptide.

 

Though the availability of crushed bone was marginally better during the year, quality thereof has not witnessed much improvement. In order to mitigate the adverse impact of such poor quality of crushed bone on the final product quality, the company in consultation with its collaborators has identified a couple of remedial initiatives. Of

these, the company has already implemented a few and the remaining are expected to go on stream in the near future. Attributable to the persistent demand from poultry industry, crushed bone is also being used for producing poultry feed ingredients thereby adding to its demand. As a result of the above, crushed bone prices have further increased by 6% during the year against a 9% increase in the previous year. In addition to the above, the production at Ossein division, Koratty has stabilized during the period resulting in a lesser dependence on purchased Ossein/Limed Ossein for there captive requirements leading to better margins. Besides, price of Hydrochloric Acid has also shown a decline of 23% during the review period as against 22% during the previous year compared to the respective prices prevailed in the immediately preceding financial years. Increase in power charges/ restrictions in usage of power at normal rates during the period under review, had caused an ncremental cost of Rs. 37.600 Millions. Despite the economic turbulences in the global economic climate and more particularly the weakening of Japanese Yen against USD, there efforts for maximizing the shareholder worth has been successful to the extent that the Net Profit before tax has increased to Rs. 261.301 Millions during 2012-13 as against Rs. 65.348 Millions in the previous year.

 

The products of the company continued to witness enviable market demand throughout the year. The continued patronage of there valued customers demonstrates their confidence in there brand. The increase in sales quantities gives credence to the company’s ability to keep growing in the most competitive Pharma / Healthcare market as they continuously update and respond to the changes in customer preferences. In respect of Collagen Peptide, the sales increased by around 47% followed by 10% in Dicalcium Phosphate.

 

The Kadukutty Panchayat, where there Ossein Plant is situated, has not renewed there factory licence for the year commencing from 01.04.2011 without any valid reasons. Therefore the Company moved the Hon’ble High Court of Kerala seeking renewal of factory licence. The matter is currently pending before the said Court and the unit is in operation. Simultaneously the company has successfully implemented the action plan formulated by the expert committee and recommended by the Kerala State Government to further improve the environment. The above initiatives have brought to light the care and commitment of the company to nature and environment besides strengthening its image among the local public and civic bodies. The company is continuing relentless efforts in this direction and is confident that they shall meet with the approval and blessings of all concerned.

 

 

OUTLOOK:

 

The evolution of foods with time has shifted towards prevention of diseases than cure, thereby consumer focusing more on Nutraceuticals i.e functional food and dietary supplements. Based on this, the nutraceutical industry is expected to grow at a steady CAGR of 6.3% during 2012- 2013. The market for Gelatin is primarily driven by growing user industries in nutraceutical, dietary supplements and cosmetics segments. Growing health concerns, ageing population, change in the lifestyle, health consciousness and increase in disposable income in the emerging markets etc. are acting as major factors driving this market. Gelatin being an excipient in the dietary supplement products holds great demand. At the same time, cultural barriers across the world to use Gelatin derived from animals is acting as a major deterrent against the overall market growth.

 

In addition to the above, the ageing population around the world causing serious issues of osteoporosis and osteoarthritis are expected to drive Collagen Peptide supplements substantially. The time to establish the concept against well known ingredients might be only the inhibiting factor. Also, the ever increasing demand to stay young is expected to boost Collagen Peptide market due to its ability to revitalise the body when taken as functional foods, beverages and dietary supplements. Rising feed costs, mainly due to high soya prices, has dampened the poultry industry sentiments. Egg prices are also on the lower side. Accordingly, there has been a marginal dip in DCP prices which is expected to improve with the onset of monsoon in North India.

 

There new products, Nutrigold and Secondary Proteins, catering to the agricultural sector are also expected to bring in appreciable margins to the company. As regards Chitosan, there are continuously upgrading the quality to meet international standards. They are also educating the domestic customers on the various applications of Chitosan which will help to augment the domestic demand further.

PERFORMANCE:

 

The company could increase the production/sale of all its major products during the year resulting in its gross turnover registering an increase of 26% (as against 20% during the previous year) to touch an all time high of Rs. 3150.000 Millions. Both favourable exchange rate movements as well as increase in unit sales realization had played a key support role in accomplishing the said growth in turnover.

 

Inclusive of the impact of the favourable forex movements during the current year, increase in Gelatin selling price was 30% (previous year 18%) and 11% for Ossein (25% in previous year). In the case of Dicalcium Phosphate, the increase was 13% (previous year 10%) and 11% for Collagen Peptide.

 

Though the availability of crushed bone was marginally better during the year, quality thereof has not witnessed much improvement. In order to mitigate the adverse impact of such poor quality of crushed bone on the final product quality, the company in consultation with its collaborators has identified a couple of remedial initiatives. Of

these, the company has already implemented a few and the remaining are expected to go on stream in the near future. Attributable to the persistent demand from poultry industry, crushed bone is also being used for producing poultry feed ingredients thereby adding to its demand. As a result of the above, crushed bone prices have further increased by 6% during the year against a 9% increase in the previous year. In addition to the above, the production at Ossein division, Koratty has stabilized during the period resulting in a lesser dependence on purchased Ossein/Limed Ossein for there captive requirements leading to better margins. Besides, price of Hydrochloric Acid has also shown a decline of 23% during the review period as against 22% during the previous year compared to the respective prices prevailed in the immediately preceding financial years. Increase in power charges/ restrictions in usage of power at normal rates during the period under review, had caused an ncremental cost of Rs. 37.600 Millions. Despite the economic turbulences in the global economic climate and more particularly the weakening of Japanese Yen against USD, there efforts for maximizing the shareholder worth has been successful to the extent that the Net Profit before tax has increased to Rs. 261.301 Millions during 2012-13 as against Rs. 65.348 Millions in the previous year.

 

The products of the company continued to witness enviable market demand throughout the year. The continued patronage of there valued customers demonstrates their confidence in there brand. The increase in sales quantities gives credence to the company’s ability to keep growing in the most competitive Pharma / Healthcare market as they continuously update and respond to the changes in customer preferences. In respect of Collagen Peptide, the sales increased by around 47% followed by 10% in Dicalcium Phosphate.

 

The Kadukutty Panchayat, where there Ossein Plant is situated, has not renewed there factory licence for the year commencing from 01.04.2011 without any valid reasons. Therefore the Company moved the Hon’ble High Court of Kerala seeking renewal of factory licence. The matter is currently pending before the said Court and the unit is in operation. Simultaneously the company has successfully implemented the action plan formulated by the expert committee and recommended by the Kerala State Government to further improve the environment. The above initiatives have brought to light the care and commitment of the company to nature and environment besides strengthening its image among the local public and civic bodies. The company is continuing relentless efforts in this direction and is confident that they shall meet with the approval and blessings of all concerned.

 

 

OUTLOOK:

 

The evolution of foods with time has shifted towards prevention of diseases than cure, thereby consumer focusing more on Nutraceuticals i.e functional food and dietary supplements. Based on this, the nutraceutical industry is expected to grow at a steady CAGR of 6.3% during 2012- 2013. The market for Gelatin is primarily driven by growing user industries in nutraceutical, dietary supplements and cosmetics segments. Growing health concerns, ageing population, change in the lifestyle, health consciousness and increase in disposable income in the emerging markets etc. are acting as major factors driving this market. Gelatin being an excipient in the dietary supplement products holds great demand. At the same time, cultural barriers across the world to use Gelatin derived from animals is acting as a major deterrent against the overall market growth.

 

In addition to the above, the ageing population around the world causing serious issues of osteoporosis and osteoarthritis are expected to drive Collagen Peptide supplements substantially. The time to establish the concept against well known ingredients might be only the inhibiting factor. Also, the ever increasing demand to stay young is expected to boost Collagen Peptide market due to its ability to revitalise the body when taken as functional foods, beverages and dietary supplements. Rising feed costs, mainly due to high soya prices, has dampened the poultry industry sentiments. Egg prices are also on the lower side. Accordingly, there has been a marginal dip in DCP prices which is expected to improve with the onset of monsoon in North India.

 

There new products, Nutrigold and Secondary Proteins, catering to the agricultural sector are also expected to bring in appreciable margins to the company. As regards Chitosan, there are continuously upgrading the quality to meet international standards. They are also educating the domestic customers on the various applications of Chitosan which will help to augment the domestic demand further.
