INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

The worst is over for India’s economy with gross domestic product likely to expand 5 %to 5.5 % this year and more than 6 % in 2015, according to Moody’s Analytics. Concerns over the rupee and current account deficit are under control, said the agency. Ratings firm Crisil has forecast 6 % growth for 2014/15 up from the estimated 4.8 % for 2013/14.  Total economic growth, infrastructure bottlenecks and lack of transparency and consistency in foreign direct investment policies seem to have taken a toll on India’s attractiveness as an investment destination, says an Ernst & Young survey.  Projects with FDI component fell 16.4 % across the globe in 2012 from the previous year.  The drop in India was steeper at 21 %. State run carrier Air India is doling out free tickets to its 24000 employees, even as it expects to incur a loss of Rs 39000 mn this financial year and has a debt of Rs 350000 mn. 550000 number of jobs generated across India in 2013, a fall of 0.4 % as compared to with a year earlier. The National  Capital Region has a one-fourth share in total jobs created, according to a study by industry lobby group Assochem, Banks, real estate, automobile and telecommunications sectors are showing a rise of job creation. $ 805 mn investments by venture capital firms in India during 2013, registering a drop of about 18 % over the previous year. The Information Technology and IT-Enabled  Services Industry retained its status as the favourable venture capital investors in 2013. Pakistan has temporarily banned gold imports for the second time in six months, as it tries to stem smuggling into India. India’s import duty on gold is 10 % and curbs on purchases have dried up legal imports into what used to be the world’s biggest bullion buyers. The World Gold Council puts the amount smuggled into India at upto 200 tonnes in 2013. The Reserve Bank of India has proposed that unclaimed bank deposits estimated to be about Rs 35000 mn be used for education and awareness among depositors.  According to the plan, deposits that have not been claimed for at least 10 years will be transferred to the scheme.

 2.  OPERATIONS

 

 FY 2012-13 was a tough year for Indian agriculture and agro chemical industry. Serious challenges were posed by the delayed and not-so-well distributed monsoon in the key agriculturally important geographies of the country. Till mid-July, out of 36 meteorological subdivisions, rainfall was excess/normal over 11, deficient in 22 and scanty in 3 sub-divisions. In area-wise distribution, only 24% area of the country received excess/ normal rainfall and remaining 76% area received deficient/ scanty rainfall. Acreages under key crops such as rice, wheat, chillies, pulses and cotton were adversely impacted reducing the overall food grain production. Rabi season recoveries were not sufficient enough to cover the losses of kharif. Poor kharif season also caused rising market inventories finally resulting in the erosionof prices and margins of agro chemicals

 

However despite these challenges, company could pose a reasonable growth of ~11% YoY through introduction of new products, increasing business from the core in-licensed products and increasing distribution base towards the underdeveloped markets.

 

Over the years, have been able to build strong capabilities in process research, process engineering and large-scale manufacturing.These capabilities have helped to develop a strong portfolio of products and the ability to offer increasing suite of services, which has led to a consistent growth in Custom Synthesis exports with another year of healthy growth of ~58% YoY. Faster scale-up cycles of existing products, commercialization of 4 new products and enhanced operational productivity are some of the key factors, which contributedto this growth.

 

 

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

 

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

 

The Company’s net sales for the yeargrew to Rs.11505.300Millionsfrom Rs.8770.900 Millions last year reflecting an increaseof 31% Y-o-Y. This growth was mainlydriven by robust ramp up in customsynthesis exports, which grew by~58% Y-o-Y to Rs.6000.000Millions from Rs.3780.000 Millions undertaken in the previous year.

 

Revenue from the domestic agri input grew by ~11% to Rs.5500.000Millions as a resultof sustained growth of key brandsdespite encountering sub-optimal agroclimaticconditions.The operating profit for the year grewto Rs.1877.000 Millions from Rs.1462.600Millionslast year reflecting an increase of 28%Y-o-Y despite an under-absorptionof costs at the newly commissioned Jambusar facility in the fourth quarter.The net profit for the year on astandalone basis grew to Rs.963.400 Millions from Rs.777.800Millions(excludingexceptional item arising from sale ofpolymer compounding business), anincrease of 24% Y-o-Y and resulting in a basic EPS of Rs.7.57 per share.

 

During the year, Company invested Rs.1603.000Millions(net of depreciation) in the additionof fixed assets towards building ofa new manufacturing site, increasein production as well as research andanalysis capacities. Overall, net fixed assets increased to Rs.5353.700Millions as on31 March, 2013 from Rs.3750.700Millions inthe previous year, reflecting an increaseof 43% Y-o-Y.The net working capital of the Company(inventory + receivables – payables)as on 31 March, 2013 of Rs.2630.700Millions only marginally increased by~3% over previous year of Rs. 2542.300 Millions reflecting better managementof working capital for the business,growing by ~31% during the year .

 

The Company’s net worth increased by ~64% to Rs.5245.900Millions as on31 March 2013 on account of anincrease in earnings and networthinfusion following a QIP.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

GLOBAL ECONOMIC REVIEW

 

The global economy posted a 3.1%growth in 2012, marginally lower than3.9% in 2011. The United States, thelargest economy, have posted betternumbers (2.2% in 2012 against 1.8%in 2011) while the Eurozone reported anegative growth of 0.6%. Much of thisdecline is assumed to have extendedto hitherto fast-growing emergingmarkets: China’s growth slowed from9.3% to 7.8% in 2012. However,economists expect the scenario toimprove; going ahead, growth inemerging markets and developingeconomies is expected to rise to 5%in 2013

 

INDIAN ECONOMY

 

Indian economic growth deceleratedto an estimated 5% in 2012-13against 6.2% 2011-12, the slowest in a decade. An erratic monsoon anddrought-like situation in many regionsaffected its agriculture sector. Growthmoderation also extended to weaknessin the industry segments (mining andquarrying, manufacturing, electricity,gas and water supply, and construction)where growth was 3.1% while themanufacturing sector grew only by1.9%. The growth of the services sectorwas at a lowered 6.6% in 2012-13 asagainst 8.2% in 2011-12.

 

DOMESTIC AGRICULTURE AND AGRI INPUT REVIEW

 

Agriculture is the mainstay of the Indianeconomy because of its significantcontribution to employment andlivelihood creation. More than half theIndian population relies on agriculturefor employment and livelihood.

 

Interestingly, India accounts for about and 4% of its water resources, butneeds to support 17% of the world’shuman population and 15% of theworld’s livestock.Agriculture accounts for 14% of India’sGDP, about 11% of its exports andabout half its population’s principalincome. This makes it imperativefor Indian agriculture production toincrease so as to service India’s overallGDP target of 8% during the 12thFive Year Plan as well as address therising demand for food. The country’sagricultural sector is marked bymoribund arable land, disintegrationof land holdings, low productivitycompared with global peers and varyinyields across states. This enhancesthe role of crop protection products,high yielding seeds, balanced usage of fertilizers and educating farmers withmodern farming techniques. In 2011-12, India experienced a recordfood grains production of 259.32million tonnes (131.27 million tonnesduring the kharifseason and 128.05million tonnes during the rabiseason).The second advance estimate for2012-13 indicated a total foodgrainsproduction at 250.14 million tonnes(Rs.124.68 million tonnes during and Rs.125.47 million tonnes duringthe rabiseason), the decline in production was on account of a latemonsoonaloffset and deficient rainfallin several states. Even as the productionofrice, sugarcane and cotton during2012-13 was lower than in theprevious year, these were better thanthe average production during the lastfive years.

 

A growing population and risingper capita income are strengtheningdemand for food grain: from Rs.192million tonnes in 2000 to an estimated Rs.355million tonnes in 2030, making itimperative for food grain productionto increase Rs.5.5 million tonnesannually to address growing domesticrequirements.

 

GLOBAL CUSTOM SYNTHESIS AND MANUFACTURING SCENARIO

 

The crop protection segment has typically been a highly competitive market with more than 85% of the global demand being met by the top10 companies. Asia and Latin Americacontinue to drive incremental growth with market shares of 25% and 19%respectively. Lately, they have seen adrastic increase in the R&D costs of top agrochemical companies, reiterating the need for organized and outsourced research. Over FY 2005-08, companies have spent about US$256mn on an average to discover new molecules, each of which took ~10 years todevelop.The global chemical market size was pegged at around US$740 bn at the end of FY 2010-11 and is expectedto touch US$970 billion by FY 2015-16.Bulk of the global demand growth is expected to be driven by countries inthe Asia-Pacific and the Middle East which have currently lower levels of consumption. On the other hand, theIndian chemical industry is emerging as a major player in the global scenario with the size of Indian chemical industrystanding at around US$100 billion at the end of FY 2011-12.

 

The outsourcing of process researchand manufacturing to credible playersin emerging markets, who can offerquality at par with that of the patentholders while delivering strong costadvantages, is the result of thefollowing factorsHigh cost of skilled manpower in developedmarketsFocus on R&D and global marketingrather than on manufacturing in highcost economiesNeed for shortening discovery cyclesto monetize the same in a timelymannerProximity togrowing / emergingmarketsRising regulatory costs in developedcountriesThe global fine chemicals industry isestimated to be valued around US$300 billion by 2015 with a growth of7-8%, mostly based in Asia. Thecustomsynthesis and manufacturing (CSM)segment is estimated at around US$ 85billion.

OUTLOOK

 

The Company is poised to build onthe revenue and margins momentum. the expect to achieve a compoundedannual revenue growth of over 25%forthe next three years leading to anevenhigher growth in operating profits byleveraging efficiencies.A distinctive positioning of existingand newly introduced molecules inthe domestic agri-input market willdrive continued volumes upside. Company intends to launch newmolecules under its own registration inthe coming fiscal. Products that werelaunched in the last couple of yearswould also see an appreciable climb in performance in line with a growingfarmer choice.

 

Custom synthesis exports wouldcontinue to be a major growth driver,helping the Company report superiorperformance due to robust volumegrowth in existing molecules as theygain an increasing market of themarket. Continuing relationships withinnovators resulted in a robust pipelineof new products. New molecules are setto be commercialised over the comingyears, which will enhance capacityutilisation. An attractive basket ofproductsin various development stageswill further add to Company’sgrowth.The Company aspires to focus onderiving maximum operating and freecash flows, rationalising debt andfueling growth.

 

The success has been possible dueto unwavering commitment tovalues of respect and knowledgesharing, nurturing and growing people and stretching ourselves acrossall operational aspects. they believe ina partnership approach and seek toreassure that PI will strive for leadershipin its chosen markets based on thecapabilities and the relationships thathave built.I take this opportunity to expressgratitude to all stakeholders including customers, partners, vendors,suppliers, independent directors,bankers and shareholders for reposingheir faith in PI. I also take this moment to commend employees forexecuting plans and strategy in an effective way.

 

Outlook and opportunities

 

The domestic agri-input business is on track to grow faster than the average industry growth rate due to a robust pipeline of products at different stages of development and registration. It is also poised to witness an increase in margins owing to a growing proportion of in-licensed products.

 

The outlook forthe ensuing year will be guided by:Pace of new product introduction;duringFY 2013-14, Company isexpecting to introduce two to threenew products. All these products willhave their distinctive features andadvantages in the respective targetsegments.Besides, products launched duringthe past two to three years are slatedto deliver a marked improvement inperformance as their adoption andusage increase.Forecast of ‘normal’ rainfall via thesouth west monsoons will push timelyand increased sowings and enhanceddemand offtake.

 

The custom synthesis exports would continue to be a major driver for Company due toRobust volume growth in existing molecules as they gain an increasing marketshareContinuing relationships withinnovators resulting in a robust pipeline of new productsTwo to three new molecules set to becommercialised during FY 2013-14,which will enhance capacity utilization at existing operationsStrategically aligning resources at the newJambusar SEZ will be the next big growth driver. Plans are afootto add more capacities in Jambusarand commercialize more products to leverage the sites. Utilisationlevels at the existing operations meanwhile continue to stay at high levels as existing molecules gain traction due to increasing market share. The Company possesses a robust pipeline of new products; a few of those will getcommercialised every year.

Net Revenue

Domestic revenues remained on trend, growing 22% over 9M FY13. Volume growth was aligned with a marginal price increase in select products.
