FINANCIAL RESULTS
CHANGE IN THE
FINANCIAL YEAR
In order to have uniform
financial year under various legislations, the Company has decided to change
the financial year from January-December to April-March. Accordingly, current
annual accounts and this Report of the Company are for a period of 15 months
from January 1, 2012 to March 31, 2013. Therefore, the figures for the current
period are not comparable with those of the 9 month period ended December 31,
2011.
PERFORMANCE OF THE
COMPANY
The Company
adopted 5 strategic principles viz.
a. Become the low
cost producer
b. Customer
support excellence
c. World class
operations and focus on safety, environment and productivity
d. Expand in
printing and writing segments and
e. Create a
performance culture. During the 15 month period ended March 31, 2013 the
Company recorded:
a. paper
production of 258,201 MT as against 160,565MT for the previous 9 month period
ended December 31, 2011;
b. Revenue of Rs.12305.000 Milions from net sale of paper as against
Rs.5952.300 Milions for the previous 9 month period ended December 31, 2011;
c. sales of 279,093 MT as compared to 1,39,786 MT. The Company managed
to get a better Net Sales Realization per MT over the previous year due to
upward price revisions across all grades and a change in the product mix;
d. Export volume of 37,819 MT as against 15,283 MT. Volume growth of
147% in exports accompanied by a sharp increase in prices improved net
realization per MT;
e. EBIDTA of Rs.1387.700 Milions as against Rs.735.600 Milions
f. A loss of Rs.237.000 Milions in view of outage, abnormal increase in
fibre cost, certain exceptional items and increase in legal and professional
charges. The outage incurred at a cost of `35 crore, had a nun favourable
impact on shipment of 13,000 MT. However, the outage completed without any LIFE
incident resulted in increase in bleached pulp production and stabilization of
power and paper machine performance.
NEW PROJECTS
During the financial year under review, the Company had commissioned
various maintenance and up gradation projects for sustaining production levels
with quality as well as regulatory projects for meeting regulatory norms and
strategic projects as part of business strategy in Units: Rajahmundry and
Kadiyam.
AWARDS/CERTIFICATIONS
The Company
received second prize in appreciation of the achievements in Energy
Conservation in Large Scale Industry Sector for the year 2011-12 from the
Government of Andhra Pradesh.
The Company was
also awarded the '2013 Award for Outstanding Rural Development' at the World
CSR Congress in Mumbai. This award is in global recognition of Company's
efforts in the areas of Social Development. The 2013 award recognizes the
integrated CSR efforts undertaken by the Company in rural areas, combining farm
forestry programs and social enrichment programs such as the Mamidilova Check
Dam. The award was titled 'Corporate Social Responsibility -Rural Development'
for improving the livelihood of farmers in the Mamidilova village.
The Company also
received Forest Stewardship Council Certification (FSC), in respect of Unit:
Kadiyam covering the production of paper using transfer and credit systems and
sourcing of reclaimed material.
RAW MATERIAL
PROCUREMENT
RAW MATERIAL
PROCUREMENT
The Company concentrated its efforts to procure pulpwood from South
India with focus on State of Andhra Pradesh for meeting its entire requirement
despite unprecedented competition from other paper manufacturers in this area.
During the year,161.30 million quality saplings were distributed covering
an area of 26,134 hectares under plantation against development and
distribution of 120.70 million seedlings covering an extent of 16,823 hectares
during the previous 2011 planting year. Research on clonal development has
resulted in introduction of high yielding, disease resistant clones and
versatile to a wide variety of agro-climatic conditions in inland and coastal
areas. Research and Development initiatives with low cost planting techniques,
quality seed material and high yielding, short rotation planting stock have
enhanced raw material availability spread over more than 158,891 hectares.
These benefits are extended to around 48,718 families creating employment
resource pool of 79 million man-days especially in rural areas so far. Specific
projects for infrastructure development and to provide better facilities in
wood procurement areas were undertaken.
RAW MATERIALS
The paper industry requires a sustainable supply of wood to survive and
flourish. Wood accounts for approximately30% of the cost of production. Any
threat in supplies would adversely affect the survival of the paper industry .At APPM, the
availability of raw material is given foremost priority. Every possible effort
is made to encourage landowners in the vicinity of the mill to grow more than
twice the number of trees than are required. They are also counseled on
nurturing the trees so that availability is guaranteed.
Subabul and
caesarian are the two varieties majorly used by APPM as raw materials for paper
production. Both are natural resources, and therefore not taken for granted.
The quality of products and customers' acceptance depends on the quality of raw
materials and APPM's ability to deliver in a timely manner and it is imperative
that availability is ensured, in the required quantities, of the specified
quality/standard/specification for uninterrupted production processes. The risk
is being mitigated by encouraging environment friendly farm forestry practices
and assisting land owners to cultivate trees on fallow wastelands. For over two
decades now, APPM has catalyzed the generation of raw materials in its
catchment area through farm/social forestry. The Company ensures conservation
and regeneration of natural resources, helps farmer’s to create sustainable
income streams and in the process, protects adequate availability of quality
raw materials for paper manufacture. These arrangements have been working
satisfactorily in the past and APPM has been procuring the required raw
material in sufficient quantities at competitive rates. The Company endeavors
to ensure raw material security while enabling the farmers to avail
remunerative prices, thus creating a sustainable future.
MANAGEMENT
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
GLOBAL SCENARIO
There is a paradigm
shift in the global paper and paperboard industry, with Asia continuing to grow
faster than the rest of the world. This trend is expected to continuein 2013,
with developing countries expected to grow by6%. More significantly, China and
India are expected to outpace and report higher than the regional average.
Developed countries are expected to report a flat demand growth, as against a
2% decline that they saw in the past two years. India is likely to be one of
the fastest rising markets at an estimated 6.5% growth. Overall, paper demand
is unevenly distributed as 72%of the world's paper is consumed by 22% of the
world’s population - in the US, Europe and Japan. The world demand for the
material is expected to grow by around3% annually, reaching an estimated 490
million tons by2020, with significant growth coming out of Asia and Eastern
Europe. The demographic trends and market dynamics are influencing several
salutary actions in the industry worldwide, with emphasis on the following
areas:
● New, state-of-the-art facilities to replace
older mills;
● Focus on newer technology, efficiency
improvements, cost reduction and cleaner production processes;
● Adoption of sustainability concerns as part
of the core operating principles;
● Development and implementation of best
practices in forest management;
● Initiatives to conserve forests and reduce
greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions;
● Greater reliance on renewable resources,
especially to increase plantations;
● Improvement in balance between paper demand
and capacity; and,
● Increase in investment in research and
development.
Industry experts
believe that the 3600 enhancement across all aspects of the industry with
special focus on newer technology, cost effectiveness and sustainability during
a period of rising global demand will improve the customer interface while
increasing the return on investment for manufacturers. Indeed, the industry is
better placed to attract resources such as the United Nations Program on
reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation and other carbon
mitigation initiatives. The industry is acknowledged to be a responsible
steward of forest resources, while such efforts have significantly added to the
raw material security of the paper manufacturers. Worldwide, the industry has
reduced its dependence on fossil fuels, conserved on energy consumption and
cost, lowered water consumption, improved on air purity and is increasingly
becoming non-CO2 intensive.
INDIAN PAPER
INDUSTRY
Indian paper
industry accounts for about 3% of the world’s paper and paperboard production
even though the country has nearly 17% of the global population. The per capita
consumption in the country is estimated at 9.18kgs compared with 42 kgs in
China, 350 kgs in developed countries and with global average at a healthy 58
kgs, implying a large scope for correction. Over the years, aspiration levels
of the growing middleclass, improving standards of living, better educational
opportunities and governmental support are some of the prime reasons for the
rising trend in consumption. This trend is expected to continue. It is
estimated that an increase in consumption by one kg per capita can potentially
increase annual paper demand by a million tons.
Historically, the
industry is more than 140 years old with the first mill having been
commissioned in 1867. There are, at present, about 800 units engaged in the
manufacture of paper and paperboards and newsprint in India. The country is
almost self-sufficient in manufacture of most varieties of paper and paperboards.
Import, however, is confined only to certain specialty papers. Over the years,
in line with the improvement in the wellbeing of people and rising literacy and
aspiration levels, paper usage has increased. The estimated turnover of the
industry is Rs.3500.000 Milions approximately and the industry provides
employment to more than 370,000people directly and 1,300,000 indirectly. Paper
sector is dominated by small and medium size units; number of mills of capacity
50,000 MT per an numor more is not more than 25. Less than half a dozen mills
account for almost 90% production of newsprint in the country. The industry was
de licensed in July 1997 by the Government of India, which enabled foreign
participation and investment in the domestic industry. Most of the paper mills
have been in existence for a long time and hence present technologies fall in a
wide spectrum ranging from oldest to the most modern. Today almost every person
uses paper in one form or the other.
The industry has
responded to the growth in demand and the installed capacity in India has risen
from0.137 million MT per annum in 1951 to the approximately10.1 million MT.
This includes capacity expansion of approximately 2.5 million MT in the recent
past. A brief analysis of the industry structure reveals that W&Ppaper
capacity is 3.5 million MT, of which 85% constitutes uncoated paper and the
balance being coated varieties. The uncoated varieties comprise of cream wove
(46%),maplitho (23%) and copier papers (16%).Out of the 10.1 million MT capacity
referred above, paperboard (packaging paper) accounts for 5 million MT. In the
industrial paper & paperboard category, 58% of the products such as kraft
paper are used in tertiary packaging and the remaining 42% constitute consumer
packaging. Of the total industry cake, newsprint accounts for 1.9million MT
capacity and specialty paper holds the balance0.6 million MT.In effect,
industrial paper constitutes 45.5% and W&P makes up another 32%. Newsprint
accounts for 17% and the balance capacity is in the specialty paper category.
Overall, the industry is working to 84% capacity utilization. The industry is
further categorized on the basis of raw material used for manufacturing paper
into forest-based(with a share of 21%), agro-based (23%) and recycled fiber-based
paper (56%).The mills use a variety of raw material viz. wood, bamboo, recycled
fibre, bagasse, wheat straw, rice husk, etc. Approximately 35% are based on
chemical pulp, 44% on recycled fibre and 21% on agro-residues. There is a
growing need to modernize the Indian mills, improve productivity and build new
capacities. Indian paper industry is capital, energy and water intensive,
highly fragmented and has sub-optimal economies of scale due to use of obsolete
technology.
There is, however,
a perceptible transformation in the industry. Medium and larger domestic
producer’s have been focusing on reducing cost of product and improving quality
of finished product. Some of the initiatives taken by them include increasing
the size of machines with high speed features, upgrading to new machine
technology and increasing farm plantation activities. The Indian paper industry
is the world's fastest growing paper market. The paper industry performance is
highly correlated with the macro economic trends and is often demonstrated by
an analogous directional move. Over the years, the beta between the growth
trends of GDP and paper industry is nearly one. During the same 5 year period
referred above, paper industry demand has grown at an average 0.9x multiple of
GDP.
CORPORATE
INFORMATION
Subject
("APPM"/"the Company") is an integrated pulp and paper
manufacturer.
APPM was
incorporated on June 29, 1964 in pursuance of an agreement dated May 13, 1964 between
Government of Andhra Pradesh (GoAP) and Mr. G.D. Somani. By an agreement dated
February 10, 1966, Mr. G .D Somani transferred all his rights, powers and
authorities contained in the Agreement dated May 13, 1964 in favour of The West
Coast Paper Mills Limited (WCPM). By an agreement dated April 16, 1981, WCPM
assigned to Digvijay Investments Limited (DIL) all its rights and obligations
under the agreement dated February 10, 1966.Consequent upon disinvestment of
its entire shareholding in favour of DIL in December, 2003, GoAP and DIL agreed
by an agreement dated December 12, 2003 that all subsisting rights and
obligations of GoAP and DIL arising out of the above agreements dated February
10, 1966 and April 16, 1981 stand terminated with effect from December 18,
2003. In October 2011, IP Holding Asia Singapore Pte. Limited has acquired
controlling stake of75% of paid up share capital in the Company from the then
promoters and public shareholders. Pursuant to such acquisition, IP Holding
Asia Singapore Pte Limited, became the holding company of The Andhra Pradesh
Paper Mills Limited and International Paper Company, USA, being the ultimate
holding company. The Company owns and operates two manufacturing units located
in the State of Andhra Pradesh, India, one at Rajahmundry and the other at
Kadiyam in East Godavari District.
PERFORMANCE REVIEW
Finished paper
production for the 15-month period ending March 2013 was 258,202 MT as compared
to 160,667MT in the 9-month financial year ending December 2011.Unbleached pulp
production was 217,632 MT during the reporting period as compared to 139,876 MT
in the previous financial year. Paper sales were 279,093 MT comprising 241,334
MT in the domestic market and 37,819 MT as export sales. In 2011, in
comparison, domestic paper sales were124,503 MT while export sales were 15,283
MT. Gross domestic net sales realization was 3.7% higher over the previous year
at `46,567 per MT with export realization
higher by 5.8% at `44,446. The Company managed toget a better net sales
realization per MT over the previous year partly due to better market
conditions and revisions in the price list across all grades.
During the fifteen
months ending March 2013, the net revenue from operations totaled Rs.1230.500
Milions, while Other Income was Rs.231.100 Milions. Total revenue for the
period was therefore Rs.12536.100 Milions. Earnings before interest,
depreciation and taxation(EBIDTA) were at Rs.1387.700 Milions (before adjusting
for one time charges) constituting 11.28% of the net revenue from operations.
In the previous financial year 2011, the corresponding amount was Rs.1125.800
Milions accounting for 18.73% of the revenue. Lower EBIDTA is also a function
of the sensitivity attached to the demand cycles. Market demand, volume sold and
prevailing prices are normalized in a 12-month cycle and hence are not
comparable with a 15-month review periodending March 2013.Interest and Finance
Charges for the 15 month period were Rs.553.600 Milions as against Rs.361.000
Milions for the 9 month period. There was an annualized saving of 8% p.a. over
the previous reporting period. The savings were driven by restructuring of debt
portfolio. The foreign exchange fluctuation during the period was in the range
of Rs.48.60 to Rs.57.12 per US Dollar representing 17.50% movement. The loss on
account of adverse movement in foreign exchange rates was Rs.20.000 Milions
during the reporting period as compared to Rs.79.000 Milions in the previous
reporting period. Profitability was also affected due to higher input cost
(substantially on account of the inflationary conditions in the economy). In
addition, there was a provision of Rs.161.900 Milions based on internal
assessment and legal opinion obtained for certain disputed matters relating to
prior years' arrears. As a result, the Company has reported a pre-tax loss of
Rs.207.300 Milions as against pre-tax loss of Rs.131.600 Milions reported in
the earlier year. The loss after tax adjustment is Rs.237.000 Milions, which in
comparison was Rs.978.100 Milions in the financial year ending December 2011.
APPM OUTLOOK
During the
15-month period ended March 31, 2013, theCompany suffered a loss of Rs.237.000
Milions on account of abnormal increase in the cost of fiber, certain
exceptional items and increase in legal and professional charges. Keeping the
overall scenario of the industry, the Company is performing reasonably well and
has been improving its operational efficiencies across the segment to gain the
competitive edge. The Company is strengthening its focus on operational
efficiency supply chain management, quality control, captive production,
strategic market alliances and expansions. Barring unforeseen circumstances,
the overall outlook for the current financial year 2013-14 seems to be
positiveand the management is optimistic of achieving improvements in the
Company's performance. While it is extremely difficult in the present scenario
to predict profits in measurable terms, the Company's initiatives are expected
to improve productivity and profitability
GENERAL ECONOMIC
FACTORS
Adverse business developments could have a negative effect on the
demand for paper products, financial conditions and results of operation. The
paper industry has a positive correlation to economic development and Company suffered
a loss of Rs.237.000 Milions on account of abnormal increase in the cost of
fiber, certain exceptional items and increase in legal and professional
charges. Keeping the overall scenario of the industry, the Company is
performing reasonably well and has been improving its operational efficiencies
across the segment to gain the competitive edge. The Company is strengthening
itsfocus on operational efficiency supply chain management, quality control,
captive production, strategic market alliances and expansions. Barring
unforeseen circumstances, the overall outlook for the current financial year
2013-14 seems to be positive and the management is optimistic of achieving
improvements in the Company's performance. While it is extremely difficult in
the present scenario to predict profits in measurable terms, the Company's
initiatives are expected to improve productivity and profitability.
Management of
Risks
Global pressures
notwithstanding, the Indian economy is expected to grow much higher than the
world average and report a GDP growth of 6% in 2013-14. The Planning Commission
of the Government of India has projected8.2% annual average economic growth
rate during 2012-17, in the approach document to the 12th Plan. The paper
industry will benefit from the stimulus packages and investment in education
being made by the Union Government. Higher literacy and aspiration levels of
the people are expected to further increase the rate at which the paper
industry is growing.
