PERFORMANCE REVIEW
The financial year
2012-13 continued to witness difficult and competitive business scenario and
conditions across all business segments and geographies of the Company, in tune
with the gradual slow-down of the Indian economy, quarter on quarter, in
general, and the automobile sector in particular, resulting in lower sales and
margins of the Company on standalone basis. The subsidiaries of the Company
operating in different geographies across the globe witnessed similar situation
and conditions due to various factors impacting each of them. The persistent
depreciation during the year of the Indian Rupee vis-à-vis the US Dollars too
added to losses during the first half of the financial year. On standalone
basis, for FY 2012-13, revenues at Rs.2405.901 Millions were lower by around
21% over the previous year's revenues of Rs.3050.516 Millions and Net Loss at
Rs.(474.974) Millions was increase by around 289% over the previous year's net
profit of Rs.(122.165) Millions. On consolidated basis, revenues at Rs.5313.829
Millions were lower by around 21% over the previous year's revenues of
Rs.6694.764 Millions and Net Loss at Rs.(1318.230) Millions was increase by
around 2913% over the previous year's net profit of Rs.46.862 Millions. The
Standalone Net Loss is after considering Foreign Currency Loss of 98.556
Millions and the Consolidated Net Profit is after considering Foreign Currency
Losses of Rs.102.799 Millions and Provision for Doubtful Debts of Rs.402.674
Millions.
MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OVERVIEW
The Financial Year
2012-13 continued to be a challenging year for the world and domestic economy
as well as subject. The global economy, though improved slowly, did not grow to
the extent expected at the commencement of the year. The US economy improved,
though marginally, driven by the consumer and housing sector, with interest
rates continuing to remain at historic lows and the quantitative easing
measures at unprecedented highs. Many European countries faced recession with
high unemployment, low demand and weakened banking systems. China too
experienced slowdown in its growth, partly due to weak global demand and partly
due to the deliberate move of its government. In India, economic growth fell
sharply, touching a decade low, the industrial sector experienced severe slump,
the trade and current account deficit reached unprecedented risky levels and
the inflation remained stubbornly high during the major part of the year,
interest rates remained high and capital formation took a severe beating;
though, the fiscal deficit remained checked, within budgeted limits. The above
macro factors, especially those prevailing in India, adversely impacted demand
for the Company’s products and their realisation during the year, which
severely dented the operating margins.
DOMESTIC BUSINESS
The sharp decline
during the year in the growth rate of the GDP and of the industrial production
in general and the automobile sector in particular adversely impacted the
demand for the high pressure seamless cylinders, due to the high co-relation of
the demand for the Company’s products with the macro economic situation. The
year continued to witness slow demand especially from the Original Equipment
Manufacturers and Retrofit segments of CNG cylinder business in India. The
demand for CNG cylinders was further impacted because of sudden hike in gas
prices in some states like Gujarat. The demand for Industrial cylinders too
witnessed a slight decline. Due to the competitive scenario and rupee
depreciation, there was pressure on realizations and margins. However, certain
positive signs are emerging, such as, the initiative taken by the Government of
India to rationalize the natural gas prices which is expected to increase the
supply of the natural gas and thus the demand for cylinders, the order of the Gujarat
High Court to the Government of Gujarat to convert all the four wheelers in the
state from petrol to CNG, etc.
INTERNATIONAL
BUSINESS
(a)
Dubai Operations
Due to the continuing geo-political situation in the Middle- East Asia,
sales to Iran, which till 2010-11 accounted for a substantial portion of its
business, remained affected during the year, with concomitant effect on the
operating results. Pursuant to the initiative undertaken during the previous
year to tide over the situation, new markets, such as, South America, CIS
countries, etc. have been developed. A branch office has been opened in
Colombia to cater to the South American market timely and efficiently.
(b)
USA Operations
Due to the improved economic and business situation in the USA, the performance
during the year was stable and in consolidation phase, with near break-even at
normalized profit before tax level. On consolidation of accounts, the results
however continue to report a loss due to amortization of intangible assets
acquired during the business acquisition.
The order book continuous to remain good during the current year, with
focus on higher margin business. The huge shale gas discovery in the USA with
concomitant low natural gas prices in the USA, the thrust on the increased usage
of natural gas and its promotion by the US Government augurs well for the
business in the coming years, which will also provide business support to the
India, Dubai and China operations, from where CNG cylinders will be sourced.
During the year, the US subsidiary has set up a plant to manufacture
Type IV composite cylinders for which there is ever increasing preference and
demand due to the light weight of these cylinders. The plant is expected to
commence operations in the second quarter. When fully commissioned, the
composite cylinders business will provide annual turnover of about US$ 10 Mn.
with much higher incremental margins.
The US subsidiary is in the process of obtaining approvals for marketing
of Industrial cylinders in the US for which there is a good demand. The
industrial cylinders will be sourced from Indian plants of the Company.
(c)
China Operations
The China CNG cylinders operations continue to remain affected due to
high local competition and price sensitive environment, which scenario is
expected to continue. During the latter half of the year, the China plant
commenced manufacture of Type II composite cylinders which command higher
demand and realisation, and have lower competition. These cylinders will boost
volumes and margins. The Jumbo cylinders segment has good business potential
due to low competition and high demand and growth prospects. The business
thrust, going forward, will be on the Jumbo cylinders segment.
(d)
Europe Operations
The Europe subsidiary provided technical know-how and support to the US
operations for setting up the Type IV Composite plant and initiated efforts to
develop the European markets for cylinders manufactured by the Indian, Dubai
and China plants.
FINANCIAL
PERFORMANCE VIS-A-VIS OPERATIONAL
PERFORMANCE
The last year has
again been very challenging for the Company on account of the continued
challenges presented by the economic environment, local as well as
international. The situation got aggravated due to the slump in the industrial
production in India and the more than expected fall in the GDP growth.
INTERNAL CONTROL
SYSTEM
Subject believes
in formulating adequate and effective internal control systems and implementing
the same strictly to ensure that assets and interests of the Company are
safeguarded and reliability of accounting data and accuracy are ensured with
proper checks and balances. The Internal control system is improved and
modified continuously to meet the changes in business conditions, statutory and
accounting requirements.
Subject has an
internal audit function, which is empoweredto examine the adequacy and the
compliance with policies, plans and statutory requirements. It is also
responsible for assessing and improving the effectiveness of risk management,
control and governance process. The management of the Company duly considers
and takes appropriate action on the recommendations made by the statutory
auditors, internal auditors and the independent Audit Committee of the Board of
Directors.
The prevailing
system of internal controls and internal audit are considered to be adequate
vis-a-vis the business requirements. In order to further strengthen the
internal control systems and with a view to automating the various processes of
the business, EKC is implementing an Enterprise Wide Resource Planning (ERP)
system.
