INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

The current downturn provides an opportunity to push ahead with reforms to accelerate growth, says the latest India Development Update report released by the World Bank. The report says that the adverse effects of rupee depreciation are likely to be offset by the gains in the exports performance due to improved external competitiveness. Since May this year, the local currency has depreciated substantially and fell to a record level of Rs 68.85 to a dollar on August, 28.

 

A stagflation like situation appears to have arisen as inflation jumped to an eight month high of 6.46 % for the month of September. It is up from 6.10 % in August. Growth continues to be muted with factory output plunging to 0.6 % in August. Onion prices have risen nearly 300 % from last September. Vegetables cost nearly 90 % more than they did last year. Wake up to the economic contribution of slum dwellers. They contribute more than 7.5 % to the country’s gross domestic product, according to a recent study conducted in 50 top cities.

 

136000 estimated number of jobs created during the second quarter of the current financial year. 50000 estimated number of additional jobs in the field of corporate social responsibility in the coming years.

 

The International Finance Corporation expects to come out with its rupee linked bonds issue before the end of 2013 as a part of its plan to raise $ 1 billion. The Apple iPhone 5c (Rs 41900 for 16 GB variant) and 5s (Rs 53500 for 16GB variant) has been launched in India from 1st November.

 

The Land Acquisition Act to provide just and fair compensation to farmers will come into force from January 1 next year, said Rural Development Minister Jairam Ramesh. The Act replaces a 119 year old registration. The Securities and Exchange Board of India has approved the trading of currency futures on the Bombay Stock Exchange. The exchange plans to launch the currency futures platform with advanced trading technology by the end of November.

PRESS RELEASE

 

MARICO Q2FY14 RESULTS MARKET SHARE IMPROVEMENT ACROSS THE PORTFOLIO, MARGIN EXPANSION REVENUE UP 5%, PAT UP 25%

 

Marico posted Revenue from Operations of INR 1,118 crore (USD 180 million) a growth of about 5% over Q2FY13, during the quarter ended September 30, 2013 (Q2FY14). The top line growth was driven by growth in volumes of about 4% each in Domestic and International businesses.

 

The growth in Profits after Tax (PAT) was about 25% at a Group level. The growth in profits during Q2FY14 excluding the impact of change in the method of depreciation (carried out in Q4FY13) was about 23%.

 

The Scheme of demerger of the Kaya business has been sanctioned by the Honorable Bombay High Court with an appointed date of April 1, 2013. November 5, 2013 is fixed as the record date for allotment of shares by Marico Kaya Enterprises Limited (MaKE) to shareholders of Marico Limited in the ratio of 50:1 (1 share of Rs. 10 each in MaKE for every 50 shares of Re. 1 each held in Marico).

 

In India, softening in the sector due to the general consumer price inflationary trend and restricted spends on discretionary products has impacted the Company’s growth rates. Moreover, growth in the primary sales during the current quarter was low due to a one time paring down of stocks in the trade given value growth lagging volume growth and inflation in distribution costs. Secondary volume growth in India is about 9% and this is as per Company’s expectations given the overall economic situation.

 

The gross margins expanded by 190 bps during Q2FY14. Operating margins expanded by 210 bps to 15.1%.

 

Market shares continued to inch up and remained healthy across categories and geographies. New Products (Saffola Oats and Parachute Advansed Body Lotion) continued to track well.

BUSINESS UNIT-WISE DETAILS HAVE BEEN GIVEN IN THE NEXT TWO PAGES. MORE DETAILS ARE AVAILABLE IN THE INFORMATION UPDATE ISSUED TODAY AND POSTED ON THE COMPANY’S

 

The India Business achieved a turnover of INR 804 crore (USD 130 million) during the quarter, a growth of about 1% over Q2FY13.

 

The volume growth in India was about 4% for the quarter, in an environment where demand has been soft. Moreover, primary volumes were low due to a one time correction of stocks in the trade. Growth in secondary sales was as per expectations.

 

The business recorded market share gains across the portfolio even though the rate of category growths have decelerated over the past few quarters mainly in discretionary segments in Urban areas.

 

The operating margin of the India business during Q2FY14 was about 17.6%. The Company believes that this level of operating margin is sustainable in the medium term.

 

Parachute coconut oil in rigid packs (the focus part of the Parachute portfolio) recorded a volume growth of about 1% during the quarter. Secondary sales grew by a healthy 7% in line with expectations. During the 12 month period ended September 2013, Parachute along with Nihar improved its market share by about 55 bps over the same period last year to 56%

 

The Saffola refined edible oils franchise grew by about 7% in volume terms during Q2FY14 as compared to Q2FY13. Secondary volume grew by over 9%. It is expected to maintain this trend for the rest of the year. The brand maintained its leadership position in the super premium refined edible oils segment with a market share of about 57% during the 12 months ended September 2013. The company revamped one of its existing variants, with an improved and top of the line offering for modern day needs; Saffola Total. Saffola Total has twice the amount of antioxidants as olive oil. The Company’s approach is to deliver a product based on science that is best for the consumers rather than offer plain commodities.

 

In breakfast cereals, Saffola Oats continues to do well and retained its no. 2 position with a 13% market share. The exit market share was about 17%.

 

Marico’s value added hair oil brands (Parachute Advansed, Nihar Naturals and Hair and Care) continued to record very healthy growths and gained share by about 260 bps. The franchise grew its volumes by 15% during Q2FY14 as compared to Q2FY13 and secondary volume grew by 20%. The Company maintained its leadership position with a share of over 28% (for 12 months ended September 30, 2013).

 

The Company is now focusing on scaling up its presence in all the sub segments of Value Added Hair Oils so that it can get advantages of operating leverage in fixed costs and advertisement spends leading to expansion in operating margins.

 

Parachute Advansed Body Lotion has achieved a volume market share of about 7.1% (moving 12 months basis) and has maintained its number 3 position in the market. The brand off-takes grew at 26% during H1 compared to the category growth rate in mid-teens.

 

The acquired portfolio of youth brands (Set Wet, Zatak and Livon) achieved a top line of about INR 97 crore (USD 15.7 million) during H1FY14 recording a growth of 30% (considering H1FY13 base of Marico and erstwhile owners). The Company has established a leadership position in the Hair Gels and Post Wash Leave-on conditioner market with about 43% and 80% share respectively.

 

Set Wet and Zatak had earlier seen some decline in market shares in the deodorant segment given that there was some lack of focus in the hands of the erstwhile owners. This decline has now been arrested and the trend is beginning to reverse. The market share during Q2FY14 was about 5% as compared to 3.9% in Q2FY13.

 

Marico’s International Business focused on Bangladesh, MENA (Middle East and North Africa), South Africa and South East Asia comprised about 24% of the Marico Group’s FMCG turnover in FY13, achieved a turnover of INR 314 Crore (USD 50.6 million) during Q2FY14 and thus reported a growth of 14% as compared to Q2FY13. The top line growth was led by 4% volume growth. The Operating margin for the quarter was over 16.7%.

 

The business in Bangladesh reported a top line growth of 1% (in constant currency) and continued its margin expansion journey in a benign input cost environment. Parachute increased its market share to 83% in the branded coconut oil market.

 

Value Added Hair Oils category touched 20% market share in Q2FY14. The launch of Hair Code ACTIVE, a faster-acting variant of Hair Code hair dye is gaining traction. Hair Code combined with Hair Code Active has strengthened its leadership position with an exit market share of 33%.

 

The business in Egypt was highly affected by political turmoil during the quarter and grew by about 5%. However, the outlook for quarters going forward is positive. Hair Code and Fiancée together maintained a market share of 56% in the gels category. The business in GCC which suffered a decline is poised to record sales growth in H2FY14 and record profits by early to mid of FY15.

 

The business in South Africa reported a top line growth of 7% during the quarter. The business environment continues to be challenging with the ethnic hair care segments declining. Marico South Africa has however gained Market share in the category over the past few years.

 

The business in Vietnam is tracking as per expectations and grew by 21% in Q2FY14 over Q2FY13 in constant currency terms. X-Men maintained its leadership in male shampoos and the number two position in male deodorants. The Company continues to scale up its presence in neighboring countries like Malaysia and Myanmar.

 

Saugata Gupta, CEO, Marico said: “Amidst challenging environment, the foundations of the business continue to be strong with market shares improving across categories and geographies. The new products too have demonstrated a satisfactory performance. Moreover, the synergies of ONE Marico post the integration of domestic and international FMCG business will start playing out from beginning of FY15. We are confident about improvement in performance going forward.”

 

Milind Sarwate, Group CFO said “Marico’s FMCG Business has held to a growth mode despite challenges posed by economic conditions in India and unrest in some of our overseas markets. The basics of our business are however robust. The Kaya demerger process has had to deal with unforeseen procedures because of regulatory changes midstream. We now expect shares in Marico Kaya Enterprises Limited to list in February- March 2014.”

 

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

 

During FY13 Marico registered revenue from operations of Rs. 45960.000 Millions, a growth of 15% over the previous year. This was contributed by 12% expansion in volumes (includes 4% inorganic growth) accompanied by 3% through price increases and sales mix. The top line increase was accompanied by a bottom-line growth of 25%. Profit after Tax (PAT) including exceptional items during the year was at Rs. 3960.000 Millions as against Rs.3170.000 Millions in FY12. The financial statements of FY13 and FY12 include certain exceptional items. The growth in PAT after excluding the impact of such items is healthy 18%. The detail about the exceptional items is provided under section “Results of Operations”.

 

The Company has demonstrated steady growth on both the top line and the bottom line. Over the last 5 years, they have grown at a Compounded Annual Growth Rate of 19% each.

 

CONSUMER PRODUCTS BUSINESS: INDIA

 

The Consumer Products Business in India (CPB) achieved a turnover of Rs. 32530.000 Millions during FY13, a growth of about 18% over FY12. The organic domestic volume growth was about 11% in an environment of subdued demand. The healthy volume growth reflects strong equity of the Company’s brands in consumers’ minds.

 

Marico participates in the Rs. 28000.000 millions (USD 518 million) branded coconut oil market through Parachute, Nihar and Oil of Malabar. Parachute coconut oil in rigid packs, the focus part of its portfolio, grew by 10% in volume as compared to FY12. During the 12 month period ended March 2013 Parachute along with Nihar improved its market share by about 240 basis points (bps) over the same period last year to 57.6%

 

Marico’s hair oil brands (Parachute Advansed, Nihar and Hair and Care) have performed well over the past few years. These brands continued to record very healthy growths and market share gains during FY13. The volume growth rate was 24% for FY13. Marico’s basket of hair oil brands achieved market leadership position in the Value Added Hair Oils space and now have about 27% share (for 12 months ended March 31, 2013) in the Rs. 45000.000 millions (USD 834 million) market. This compares to a share of about 17%-18% about 5-6 years ago.

 

The Saffola refined edible oils franchise grew by about 7% in volume terms during FY13 compared to FY12. The deceleration in the growth can be attributed to two reasons: a softer demand environment in premium packaged foods that are discretionary in nature and inflation in the safflower oil and rice bran oil being at significantly higher levels compared to inflation in sunflower oil. This had led to expansion in premium of Saffola vis-ŕ-vis the other refined edible oils. Though the Company doesn’t believe that Saffola’s existing consumers are down trading there is a deceleration in the rate at which new consumers are upgrading into the Saffola brand, leading to a lower growth rate. The Company has initiated some price reduction in select packs in order to bring the premium back to sustainable levels.

 

Saffola oats, including its savory variants, are now available on a national basis. Saffola has an exit market share of about 13% by volume in the Oats category and has emerged as the number two player in the category showing a fast paced growth of 30% per annum. Besides offering oats Saffola strengthened its position in the breakfast category by introducing Muesli on a national basis. The market size of Muesli is estimated to be around Rs. 800.000 millions to INR 100 crore (USD 14.800 million to USD 18.500 million) growing rapidly at rates in excess of 40%. Saffola Muesli has already become a number 3 player with an exit market share of about 9%.

 

Parachute Advansed Body Lotion has achieved a market share of over 7% (moving 12 months basis) within a short period of time and has become the number 3 participant in the market. The brand gained about 320 bps in market share during the current season as compared to the last season.

 

The acquired portfolio of the youth brands has completed its first financial year in Marico’s hands (even though this year was of 9 months as the transaction was completed in end of May 2012). The overall performance thus far is tracking better than the company’s acquisition assumptions. The turnover achieved from the youth brands during the year was INR 139 crore (USD 25.7 million), a growth of 18% over the corresponding period in FY12.

 

INTERNATIONAL FMCG BUSINESS

 

The year FY13 has been a mixed year for the international FMCG business. The overall business environment in international business remained challenging throughout the year. There were some pockets of the business that performed well whereas at the same time some faced challenges. The overall performance was subdued during the year mainly on account of de-growth in Middle East region.

 

During FY13, the Company’s international business recorded a turnover growth of 8% over FY12. Without considering the impact of adverse performance in GCC region, the international business grew by 17%.

 

KAYA

 

Kaya offers skin care solutions - its technology led cosmetic dermatological services and products through 105 clinics: 83 in India across 26 cities and 18 in the Middle East in addition to the 4 DRx clinics and medispas in Singapore and Malaysia.

 

During the year FY13, Kaya achieved a turnover of INR 336 crore (USD 62.2 million) registering a growth of about 21% over FY12. The Kaya business in India and in the Middle East achieved same store sales growth of about 12% during FY13 as compared to FY12. Amidst an environment where the discretionary spends are witnessing a deceleration in growth rates Kaya business has continued to report growth.

 

During FY13, Kaya recorded a loss of about Rs. 1850.000 millions (USD 3.4 million) at the PBIT level. This compares with a loss of Rs. 3080.000 millions (USD 5.7 million) at PBIT level for FY12 (this includes a financial hit of Rs. 130.000 millions of one-time adjustment in Kaya Middle East). The losses for the year FY13 also include a financial hit amounting to Rs.150.000 millions (USD 2.800 million) on account of impairment of certain clinics in India and Middle East which are not performing as per expectation.

 

Taking the objective of increasing the product sales further, Kaya has introduced a new concept in the month of December 2012 called “Kaya Skin Bar”. The Company now has three such stores opened in Delhi and Bangalore. The Company plans to prototype this concept with 4 or 5 stores and depending upon the response it will decide the future course of action.

The contingent liability pertains to a possible excise duty obligation in respect of pure coconut oil packs up to 200 ml. This claim has been contested and a legal opinion in the matter has been obtained. Based on the legal opinion and in its assessment, the management believes that the probability of success in the matter is more likely than not and accordingly, the possible excise obligation has been treated as a contingent liability in accordance with requirements of Accounting Standard (AS) 29 “Provisions, Contingent Liability and Contingent Asset”. The possible excise duty obligation of Rs. 2423.200 Millions (Rs. 1571.500 Millions) for the clearances made after June 3, 2009 (i.e. the date of issue of Board circular) till March 31, 2013 and Rs. 1217.700 Millions (Rs. 1217.700 Millions) for clearances made prior to June 3, 2009 has been disclosed as contingent liability to the extent of the time horizon covered by show cause notices issued by the excise department within the normal period of one year (from the date of clearance) as per the excise laws.

 

The Company will continue to review this matter during the coming accounting periods based on the developments on the outcome in the pending cases and the legal advice that it may receive from time to time.
