INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

The services sector, the largest contributor to India’s GDP, contracted for the sixth consecutive month in December, as orders dipped. However, hiring has risen.  Direct tax collections rose 12.3 % during the April – December period of the current financial year.  The government has decided to retain 100 per cent foreign direct investment in both greenfield (new) and brown field (existing) pharmaceutical companies, despite concerns over genetic drugs going out of production, if multi-national companies take over domestic ones. In M&A deals, a non compete clause would not be allowed, except in special circumstances. The Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion plans to release the next edition of its consolidated foreign direct investment policy document on March 31, incorporating changes made in the past year. DIPP compiles all policies related to India’s FDI regime into a single document to make it easy for investors to understand. 185 million estimated number of mobile internet users in India by June 2014, according to a report by the Internet & Mobile Association of India and IMRB International.  India had 110 million mobile internet users with 25 million in rural areas. $3.77 tn estimated global IT spending in 2014, according to research firm Gartner Inc. The growth forecast for this year is cut to 3.1 %from the earlier estimate of 3.5 %. The spending growth forecast for telecom services – a segment that accounts for more than 40 % at total IT spending – from 1.9 per cent to 1.2 per cent is the main reason for this overall IT cut. A Reserve Bank of India committee has recommended setting up a special category of lenders who would cater to small businesses and households, to expand the number of customers with access to banking services. These banks would focus onproviding payment services and deposit products.  Indian banks want the free use of automated teller machines to be capped at five transactions in a month including that of the bank in which the account is active. This follows state government order to banks to install security guards at ATM booths after a woman banker was assaulted in Bangalore. The government is likely to present a vote on Account in mid-February. The annual Economic Survey will be tabled later in Parliament along with the full Budget. A full Budget for 2014/15 is likely to be present in July by the new government formed after the General Election. The government will soon launch an internet spy system, called Netra, to detect malafide messages. Security agency will deploy the system to capture dubious voice traffic on applications such as Skype and Google Talk, as well as tweeters.

OPERATIONS REVIEW

 

During the year, the Company has achieved Sales Turnover of Rs.8857.500 Millions (Previous Year: Rs.6991.800 Millions) registering a growth of 26.68%.

 

Further, the Company has achieved Export Turnover of Rs.3222.000 Millions as against Rs.2807.100 Millions for the last year, registering a growth of 14.78%.

 

Operating Profit before Interest, Depreciation, Amortization and Tax, has been Rs.1203.400 Millions (Previous Year Rs.802.700 Millions), registering a growth of 49.92%. Profit After Tax has been Rs.452.400 Millions (Previous Year Rs.224.600 Millions), registering a growth of 101.42%.

 

The company had carried out expansion programmes in the year 2010-11 and 2011-12 keeping long term view in the mind, inspite of recessionary conditions prevailing globally. The company reaped the benefit of utilization of expanded capacity for the full year which has resulted into increased sales. In addition, last year one of their location at Sarigam suffered loss of production for three months due to general environmental clearance issue in the area. During the year, they successfully operated that plant at higher capacity. Due to overall higher capacity utilization across the company, the overheads got spread over increased production which led to reduction in costs and thus increase in the profitability.

 

Fire incident occurred on 22.03.2013 at one of the Production block of the manufacturing unit located at Plot No. N - 198 Tarapur manufacturing MNI, an intermediate which is further processed to manufacture two APIs. Loss / damage caused to stock and fixed assets due to fire incident has been covered under insurance and accounted for appropriately.

 

The Company could arrange to outsource the said intermediates from outside and supplies of said APIs were restored to customers within a period of a month.

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

Pharmaceutical industry – Global and Indian

 

The global pharmaceutical market has seen high growth over the past few years, spurred primarily by the North American market. However, there is a gradual growth movement towards emerging markets, where availability of healthcare is expanding and there is an increasing need for treatments associated with chronic disease more typically found in developed countries till date. Emerging markets currently represent 16% of the global market (IMS health), but are expected to contribute 40% of growth by 2014.

 

The Indian pharmaceutical industry has been an important constituent of the pharmaceutical sector worldwide with rising use of generics, and the high cost competitiveness backed by the high quality scientific talent. The Indian pharmaceutical industry consisting of Bulk Drug Exports, Formulation Exports, and Domestic Formulations is expected to grow to around US $ 52 billion by the year 2014-15 at a CAGR of 17.2% from the year 2011-12. The domestic formulations market is expected to grow with a CAGR of 13.5% from 2008-09 to reach a size of US $ 17.3 billion by 2014-15. Export formulations are poised to reach a size of US $ 14.9 billion growing at a CAGR of 20% from 2008-09 to 2014-15. And the most importantly Bulk drugs are projected to be US $ 19.8 billion by 2015 growing at a CAGR of 19.5% from 2008-09 to 2014-15.

 

BUSINESS STRATEGY

 

Domestic Market and Trends:

 

The Indian bulk drug industry world-wide has grown as a direct offset of formulation growth. With a growth of 34%

over the past five years, Indian bulk drug exports have grown to reach US $ 6.8 billion in 2008-09 from US $ 1.6 billion in 2003-04. Aarti Drugs Limited (ADL) has a strong regulatory framework and cGMP level documentation which is becoming a standard requirement of most of the big Indian pharmaceutical companies. High process efficiency and high standard for quality has created good brand name for ADL in the space of Antibiotic,Antidiabetic, Antifungal, Antidiarrheal, Anti-inflammatory and Antihypertensive therapeutic segments. Indian pharmaceutical market is growing fast due to penetration of health services in rural areas of the country. There is also a shift in demand from drugs treating hygiene related diseases to drugs treating lifestyle related diseases in the urban sector.

 

ADL has capital expenditure plans of constructing new facilities, few of which will start giving production output in the coming year. These will cater to ever increasing Antidiabetic segment.

 

Export Market and Trends:

 

Growing generic costs and rising cost pressures faced by innovators have provided a significant opportunity to bulk drug players. In addition, strengths such as low cost manufacturing, high process chemistry skills, manufacturing facilities and increasing number of DMF filings have fuelled growth in bulk drug exports. ADL facilities are cGMP approved with certifications like USFDA, WHO GMP, TGA and ISO. ADL is constantly growing its presence in regulated markets by offering series of products from its USFDA, TGA certified plants, as well as Japanese accredited plants. ADL also has ANVISA certification of Brazilian authorities and COFEPRIS of Mexican authorities to cater to Latin American market in three of its major products.

 

ADL is constantly working to keep its facilities up to the standards of cGMP as they plan to harness and grow their market share in semi-regulated like South East Asia and Non American regulated markets.

 

ADL will continue to cater global pharmaceutical markets through following channels:

 

·         Contract Manufacturing

·         Direct Exports

 

Increasing its share of direct exports to regulated and non–regulated markets Continuing R and D on the molecules that will go off patent in near future

 

·         Indirect Exports

 

Supplying APIs for domestic formulations for regulated markets

 

SWOT ANALYSIS

 

Strengths and opportunities:

 

Although in general cost of manufacturing is lower in China than in India, ADL has been able to keep it's costs to minimum possible and aggressively compete with Chinese competitors. Moreover, global players prefer Indian manufacturers to Chinese due to documentation and quality issues. Furthermore, currently ADL has customer audited and FDA approved facilities which give us an edge over competition throughout the world.

 

ADL continues to enjoy economies of scale due to its large production capacities in Anti Diarrhea, Anti Inflammatory, Anti Fungal, and Anti Biotic segment. Bigger market share will automatically help us to be competitive in market due to lower overheads and better bargaining power. Since inception, ADL has been exporting to 97 countries worldwide indicating its strong logistics and geographic spread of ADL brand.

 

ADL is operating its two State-of-the Art RandD Centers, at Tarapur, which are recognized by Department of Science and Industry Research, Government of India, and at Turbhe, Navi Mumbai. Their scientists are constantly working for developing technology, non-infringing route of synthesis, scale up and its transfer to manufacturing location for commercialization. They actively work not only on bulk drugs in various therapeutic categories but also on speciality chemicals for non-API related applications. ADL has 29 years of manufacturing experience and has developed expertise in various reactions for bigger volumes of production, which is a key strength in API manufacturing industry.

 

Weaknesses, Risks and concerns:

 

Variation in crude oil prices would always be area of concerned. ADL has already installed greener technologies like briquette fired boilers, economizers etc. to save power and fuel costs. ADL was able to cope up with these pressures due to strong operational efficiency and increased market share of its products.

 

Extreme volatility of exchange rate of rupee against US dollar can have significant impact on ADL operations because approximately 40% of it's total revenues consists of exports. However, more than 85% of this exposure is naturally hedged due to the imports. ADL has a strict FOREX policy of hedging all of its foreign currency loans thus mitigating the risk of volatility of exchange rate.

 

DISCUSSION ON FINANCIAL and OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE

 

During the year the Company has achieved topline of Rs.885.75 crores, achieving a y-o-y growth of

26.68% correspondingly EBIDTA worked out to Rs.120.34 crores as against Rs.80.27 crores in the previous year recording a growth of 49.92%. Net profit after tax was Rs.45.24 crores as against Rs.22.46 crores in the previous year recording growth of 101.42%.

 

The Company had carried out expansion programmes in the year 2010-11 and 2011-12 keeping long term view in the mind, inspite of recessionary conditions prevailing globally. The Company reaped the benefit of utilization of expanded capacity for the full year which has resulted into increased sales. In addition, last year one of their location at Sarigam suffered loss of production for three months due to general environmental clearance issue in the area. During the year, they successfully operated that plant at higher capacity. Due to overall higher capacity utilization across the Company, the overheads got spread over increased production which led to reduction in costs and thus increase in the profitability.

 

Considering increase in cost of crude petroleum and volatility of rupees against dollar, Company had taken steps to replace furnace oil fired boilers to briquette fired boilers in last two years. These steps helped Company to contain its fuel cost.

 

Above factors resulted in increase in operating margin of the Company for the year as indicated last year in their annual report and reap benefits out of expansion programs as indicated in the last year's discussion on Financial and Operational performance.

 

OUTLOOK

 

The Company R and D programs are currently focused on new products amongst therapeutic categories such as Antipsychotic, Antitussive, Antifungal, Antihypertensive, Anticonvulsant, Alcoholism treatment and Anti-inflammatory. These products would be launched in a time-horizon of 2-4 years depending upon patents. Company will continue to do RandD on APIs that are off patents and will work on non-infringing synthesis routes.

 

ADL has expanded the capacities of its existing products in Anti-Biotic, Anti-Diabetic, Anti-Fungal, and Anti-Diarrhea segments. This has given an impetus to sales volumes. ADL is planning to expand the capacity of its Cardio-protectant, anti-biotic and anti-diabetic and lifestyle related drugs in future.
