INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

India’s current account deficit for the fiscal third quarter ended September 2013 narrowed to $4.2 billion or 0.9 % of the gross domestic product from $31.9 billion or 6.5 % of GDP a year earlier, thanks to a pick-up in exports and moderation in gold imports. Manufacturing activity and new orders in India showed their strongest growth in a year in February. The news comes as a relief after data showed Asia’s third largest economy grew by a slower-than-expected 4.7 % annually in the three months through December. The HSBC Manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index which gauges the business activity of India’s factories but not its’ utilities, rose to 52.5 in February, its highest in a year from 51.4 in January. Overall new orders for factory goods which rose to a one-year high of 54.9 contributed to the surge. China has emerged as India’s biggest trading partner in the current financial year replacing the United Arab Emirates and pushing it to the third spot. India-China trade has reached $49.5 billion with a 8.7 % share in India’s total trade. The US comes second at $46 billion with 8.1 % share during the first nine months of the current financial year.

 

The Reserve Bank of India has granted an additional nine months to the public to exchange currency notes printed before 2005 including Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 denominations, pushing the deadline to January 1, 2015. A day before dates for the Lok Sabha polls were announced, the government decided to hike interest rates on fixed deposit schemes offered by post offices up to 0.2 per cent. The new rates will be effective April, 1. The Supreme Court will resume hearing on March, 11 Nokia’s appeal against a ruling over transferring ownership of its local mobile phones plant which is the subject of a tax dispute to Microsoft Corp.

 

In the last days of the current Government, another scam has surfaced. The defence ministry has ordered a probe into Hindustan Aeronautics Limited’s contracts from Britain’s Rolls-Royce Holdings worth at least $ 1.2 billion. The Central Bureau of Investigation will look into allegations that over $80 million was paid in kickbacks in a deal signed in 2011. India has asked Boeing Co. to find a solution for problems with state-owned Air India’s 787 Dreamliners. The aircraft has experienced a series of malfunctions since its debut in 2011.

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE AND OPERATIONS:

 

The Turnover of the Company on a Standalone basis stood at Rs. 51970.000 Millions for the year ended 31st March, 2013 55330.000 Millions previous year). Operating Profit (PBDIT) amounted to Rs. (215.400) Millions 4590.200 Millions previous year). After providing Rs. 1073.900 Millions 1019.900 Millions for the previous year) towards depreciation and Rs. 57.500 Millions 660.900 Millions previous year) towards tax for current and deferred taxation, the net profit amounted to Rs. (4456.700) Millions 870.400 Millions previous year). The annualized percentage decrease in turnover over previous year amounted to 6%.

 

On a consolidated basis the turnover of the Gammon group stood at Rs. 74942.200 Millions for the year ended 31st March, 2013. The annualized percentage decrease in turnover over previous year's turnover amounted to 8.03%. The group made a loss of Rs. 8498.300 Millions for the year ended 31st March, 2013 as compared to a loss of Rs. 1051.400 Millions in the previous year. This was mainly on account of increase in interest costs due to higher borrowings, impairment of Goodwill and diminution in the value of investment.

 

During the year, the Company has been facing tight liquidity position arising out of overall deceleration in the economy, lower industrial growth, delayed or indecisions at various governments and large PSU clients' level affecting the project progress and project variations. The liquidity crisis arising out of delayed and withheld payments resulted in higher debts thereby increasing the interest costs by 22%. Slowdown in the power investments in the power sector had adversely affected the power projects and this has also affected your Company's construction projects in the power sector.

 

This necessitated re-assessment of jobs considering the delays in project execution on account of funding difficulty. Many of the jobs turned negative on increased costs due to time and cost overruns on account of unfavorable working capital cycle arising out of increased inventory and outstanding receivables, which in accordance with Accounting Standard 7 required upfront recognition of the project loss.

 

Considering the current economic scenario in Europe, the Company on prudent basis has made provisions in connection with its investments / advances to/in its overseas companies. While the Company is entitled to claims of prolongation and other variations which would be subject matter of arbitration/disputes relating to above, pending raising of the claim and its settlement, on a prudent basis it has not factored for any claims/ variations in excess of costs incurred thereon.

 

All these factors have eroded margins resulting in PBT losses, both on a standalone and consolidated basis.

 

During the year the Company re-alligned its debts through the process of Corporate Debt Restructuring which has been explained in detail below as well as in the Management Discussion and Analysis Report .

 

Given the challenging times ahead in order to improve margins and liquidity position, the Company is working on the following parameters to improve margin and liquidity. The Company has focused on cost management, making leaner organization, focused bidding process and being selective, optimum design and engineering with focus on standardization, improving plant productivity, rigorous focus on cash flow with focus on debtors, retention and inventory cycle and active and rigorous contract management to realize claims held up with clients.

 

The order book position of the Company as on 31st March, 2013 stood at Rs. 1376.000 Millions. The Company secured additional projects worth Rs. 20557.300 Millions until the date of this report.

 

 

FINANCE:

 

During the year the Company did not raise any funds from the capital markets either by way of issue of equity shares / ADR / GDR. The Company has obtained financial assistance from its consortium bankers to meet its short term working capital requirements.

 

During the year the Company did not raise any debt by way of issue of Debentures. The total amount of outstanding Non-Convertible Debentures as on date is Rs. 3240.000 Millions.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS REPORT

 

OVERVIEW OF GAMMON GROUP

 

Gammon India is amongst the largest infrastructure construction companies in India. Its track record spans significant landmark projects built over several decades, with a prominent presence across all sectors of civil engineering, design and construction. Besides its large scale of operations in the Construction and Infrastructure domain, Gammon has a dominant presence in energy business in which it operates in the hydro, nuclear and thermal power segments. Gammon's projects cover businesses and projects involving highways, public utilities, environmental engineering and marine structures. Gammon's expertise also covers the design, financing, construction and operation of modern bridges, viaducts, and metro rail, both on a Built-Operate-Transfer (BOT) basis as well as contract execution. Gammon is also active in the Social Infrastructure sector through its operations in the realty project segment. Gammon's overseas ventures includes a majority holding in Franco Tosi Meccanica, SAE Power lines, and Sofinter group, Italy spanning the sectors of power and industrial boilers, steam and hydro turbines as well as waste and environment management systems.

 

 

ECONOMIC OVERVIEW, INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENT:

 

After experiencing a slowdown in the growth induced by the global financial crisis in 2008-09, the Indian economy responded strongly to fiscal and monetary stimulus and achieved a growth rate of 8.6 per cent and 9.3 per cent respectively in 2009-10 and 2010-11. However, with the economy exhibiting inflationary tendencies, the Reserve Bank of India started raising policy rates in March 2010. The high rate of interest coupled with policy constraints adversely impacted investment and the following two years viz. 2011-12 and 2012-13 saw a dip of 6.2 per cent and 5.0 per cent respectively in the growth rate. Despite this slowdown, the compounded annual growth rate for gross domestic product at factor cost, over the decade ending 2012-13 was 7.9 per cent.

 

The moderation in growth is primarily attributable to weakness in industry comprising mining and quarrying, manufacturing, electricity, gas and water supply, and construction sector, which registered a growth rate of only 3.5 per cent and 3.1 per cent in 2011-12 and 2012-13 respectively.

 

Infrastructure was one of the core sectors that was affected by the economic slowdown to a major extent during 2012-13. Infrastructure projects require good amount of time for planning and implementation of a project. Delays in the execution of projects not only lead to shortfalls in achieving targets but also widen the availability gaps. Time overruns in the implementation of projects continue to be one of the main reasons for under achievement in many infrastructure sectors. These overruns increase the cost of project beyond estimation and finally impact the project profitability. Delays in land acquisition, municipal permission, supply of materials, award of work, operational issues, etc. continued to drag down implementation of these projects.

 

Infrastructure sector which provides huge support in the development of all other sectors of the economy has been the focus area of Government. Fully recognizing the need to fill the void in financing infrastructure projects, last year's budget had set up infrastructure debt fund. In order to augment low cost funds from outside India, a reduced tax of 5% has been doled out in the current budget to foreign investors providing debt to key infrastructure projects such as aviation, power, toll road, bridge, port etc. This will definitely help in filling the gap of the huge investment the country needs in infrastructure.

 

Apart from providing a solution to the finance needs of the infrastructure companies, the Government has also taken up initiatives to float projects for improving the infrastructure in the country.

During the year, the Company has been facing tight liquidity position arising out of overall deceleration in the economy, lower industrial growth, delayed or indecisions at various governments and large PSU clients' level affecting the project progress and project variations. The liquidity crisis resulted in higher debts thereby increasing the interest costs by 22%. Slowdown in the power investments in the power sector had adversely affected the power projects and this has also affected your Company's construction projects in the power sector.

 

This necessitated re-assessment of jobs considering the delays in project execution on account of funding difficulty. Many of the jobs turned negative on increased costs due to time and cost overruns on account of unfavorable working capital cycle arising out of increased inventory and outstanding receivables, which in accordance with Accounting Standard 7 required upfront recognition of the project loss.

 

Considering the current economic scenario in Europe, the Company on prudent basis has made provisions in connection with its investments / advances to/in its overseas companies. While the Company is entitled to claims of prolongation and other variations which would be subject matter of arbitration/disputes relating to above, pending raising of the claim and its settlement, on a prudent basis it has not factored for any claims/variations in excess of costs incurred thereon.

 

All these factors have eroded margins resulting in PBT losses, both on a standalone and consolidated basis.

 

The order book position of the Company as on 31st March, 2013 stood at Rs. 137600.000 Millions.

 

 

SPECTRUM OF ACTIVITY AND REVIEW OF PERFORMANCE:

 

TRANSPORT ENGINEERING:

 

Your Company is engaged in the design and construction of various projects spanning roads, bridges, flyovers, metro railway systems, marine structures, ports and airports.

 

Roads:

 

Road network of India is the third largest in the World spanning across 4.69 million kilometers.

 

The importance of road network in general and National Highways in particular can be appreciated from the facts that:

 

  • About 65% of freight and 80% passenger traffic is carried by the roads.
  • Vehicular traffic has been growing at an average pace of over 10 % p.a. over the last five years.
  • National Highways constitute only about 1.7% of the road network but carry about 40% of the total road traffic.

 

In view of the same, the need for developing an efficient road network is inevitable for ensuring world class road transportation infrastructure.

 

To promote the road sector, the Government has allowed 100% Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) under the automatic route. 100% tax exemption is also allowed to companies for five years and 30% relief for the next five years in road projects. Public-Private-Partnership (PPP) initiative has been the great driver for growth in the road sector contributing around 60 per cent of all PPP projects in the country -the balance 40% is being for power and other sectors. The PPP projects in turn come in market as EPC Contracts for execution. Though the year 2012-13 witnessed lowest score in award of the new contracts by NHAI, the future prospects for the sector remains bright as approximately 12,700 kilometres of projects are expected to be awarded by National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) over the next two years.

 

In addition to PPP, several initiatives have been proposed by the Government to upgrade and strengthen National Highways, to build expressways in high and dense traffic segments and to improve the quality of roads. The ambitious National Highways Development Project (NHDP), covering a length over 55,000 km has substantial scope to give a much needed boost to road sector and economy. On the policy front, initiatives like pre-qualifications of bidders on an annual basis rather than project-wise document submission have helped to expedite the bidding process. All these initiatives have increased the scope of work for the Company as an EPC Contractor. The Company is looking forward to participating in these projects. However execution progress in the roads and highways sector has remained slow during the financial year ended 2013 mainly due to delays in land acquisition and environmental and forest clearances, labour issues and local law and order problems. Several steps have been undertaken for resolving these issues and it is expected that during the Twelfth Plan road construction work will pick up.

Ports:

 

India currently ranks 16th among the maritime countries with a coastline of approximately 7517 k.m. with 13 major ports and more than 180 minor ports offering huge international trade capabilities.

 

The Port sector being one of the major areas of focus for development, the Indian ports are proving to be a lucrative option for investors scouting for opportunities in the Indian market. The current port sector scenario in the country offers a huge scope for expansion of international maritime transport; both for passengers and cargo handling.

 

It is envisaged that in the next 5 years, the port traffic will amount to 943.06 MT for India's major ports and 815.20 MT for its minor ports. Further, the Government also plans to triple the cargo-handling capacity at its ports to 3.2 billion tonnes by 2020 by allowing private investment to the tune of approx.

Rs.3 trillion.

 

The following jobs are currently under execution in this sector:

 

  • Construction of Offshore Container Terminal at MbPT (BOT Project) valued at Rs. 5500.000 Millions.

POWER SECTOR - ECONOMIC SCENARIO:

 

The Indian power sector is one of the most diversified sectors in the world. Power in India is generated from commercial sources like coal, lignite, natural gas, oil, hydro and nuclear power as well as other viable non-conventional sources like wind, solar, agriculture and domestic waste. The demand for electricity in the country has been growing at a rapid rate and is expected to increase further in the years to come. In order to meet the increasing requirement of electricity, massive addition to the installed generating capacity in the country is required. The electricity generation capacity in India is the fifth largest in the world. India is also the sixth largest consumer of electricity, and accounts for 3.4 per cent of the global energy consumption. Over the past thirty years, the country's energy demand has grown at an average of 3.6 per cent per annum. During the year 2012-13, the power sector was plagued by continuing problems of coal and gas supplies, stringent environmental norms and regulatory uncertainties. Coal availability emerged as one of the biggest problems in the power sector, gas availability for the Indian power sector is very low. Nuclear and Thermal Power projects are being delayed due to problems in land acquisition .Also Nuclear power projects are facing steep challenges from the environmental point of view, particularly after the recent accidents in Japan. The year also marked a dark patch in the history of the Indian power sector as one of the biggest blackouts hit the country leaving more than 600 million people in darkness (although this has happened for the first time in this decade). Hydro-power projects are still facing risks on account of factors such as political and environmental protests, delay/cancellation of environmental clearances, delays in land acquisition, poor infrastructure, tunnelling delays, geological surprises, contractual and procurement issues, shortage of skilled manpower, difficulties in evacuation of power etc.

 

 

Thermal Power and Industrial Structures

 

In the present situation thermal power generation is 65% of the total power generation capacity. Government is encouraging private players to be partners in the power sector development and sector is de-licensed. The participation of private players in the thermal power sector has made the sector more attractive to target and shown a growth potential for the company.

 

 

Some of the thermal power projects currently being executed by your company are as follows:

 

  • Main Plant and Offsite Civil works Pkg. Vallur TPP, Tamilnadu valued at Rs. 4460.000 Millions.
  • Civil and Structural Steel Works for 2 X 600 Mw TPP near Tuticorin in Tamilnadu valued at Rs. 4000.000 Millions.
  • Civil Works and Structural Works for 3300 Mw TPP at Tiroda, Maharashtra valued at Rs. 3500.000 Millions.
  • GCW and Chimney for 2x600 MW TPP at Angul valued at Rs. 2950.000 Millions.
  • Civil Structural and Architectural works of the Sea Water Intake Outfall system for 2x520 (1040) MW TPP at Vishakhapatnam valued at Rs. 2670.000 Millions.
  • GCW and Chimney for 6 x 660 MW TPP near UMPP at Sasan valued at Rs. 2500.000 Millions.
  • Civil Works for CHP Expansion at 4x300MW Rosa Thermal Power Plant, Shahjahanpur UP valued at Rs. 307.200 Millions.
  • Raw water Intake system in Rihand Reservoir valued at Rs. 227.800 Millions.

 

The general outlook of the sector is positive with availability of quality resources and competent human resource. The sector is becoming highly competitive as the risks involved are minimal. Timely delivery,quality, cost and safety are the essence to succeed in this sector. At the same time it is a challenge to ensure availability of new contracts due to very few new bids being invited as the linkages for coal and water are not firmed up yet.

 

 

Hydro power

 

The country has tremendous potential for hydro power. However Hydro Power projects in the country are faced with problems of land acquisition, environmental clearances, regulatory approvals and very few projects have been awarded.

 

In spite of such challenging scenario, your Company has bagged two packages of prestigious BajoliHoli Hydro Project from GMR BajoliHoli Hydropower Private., as detailed below:

Nuclear Power

 

India has a flourishing and largely indigenous nuclear power program and expects to have 20,000 Mw nuclear capacity on line by 2020 and 63,000 Mw by 2032. It aims to supply 25% of electricity from nuclear power by 2050. Because India is outside the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, it was for 34 years largely excluded from trade in nuclear plant or materials, which has hampered development of civil nuclear energy until 2009. Due to these trade bans and lack of indigenous uranium, India has uniquely been developing a nuclear fuel cycle to exploit its reserves of thorium. Now, foreign technology and fuel are expected to boost India's nuclear power plans considerably. All plants will have high indigenous engineering content. India has a vision of becoming a world leader in nuclear technology due to its expertise in fast reactors and thorium fuel cycle.

 

There are huge developments happening in recent years and the company has secured necessary prequalification's to bid for new contracts. The Company has completed the civil works of fast breeder reactor at Kalpakkam and other BOP structures. The Company has also completed the Construction of Phase -II Buildings of IGCAR and Turbine building. The BOP for 500 MW PFBR at Kalpakkam is nearing completion.

 

The general outlook of the sector is positive with availability of quality resources and competent human resource. The sector is becoming highly competitive as the risks involved are minimal. Timely delivery,quality, cost and safety are the essence to succeed in this sector. At the same time it is a challenge to ensure availability of new contracts due to very few new bids being invited as the linkages for coal and water are not firmed up yet.

 

 

PIPELINE DIVISION:

 

During the year the Company has successfully completed construction of Bahadurgarh Tikrikalam Pipeline (BTPL) for HPCL. The construction of Pipeline for Bramhaputra Cracker and Polymer Limited at Lepetkata, Assam is in the finishing stage.

TRANSMISSION AND DISTRIBUTION BUSINESS:

 

Overview of Industry Structure and Economic Condition:

 

The global economic recession has not spared any industry and we are no-exception. However, Government of India and the Reserve Bank of India are leaving no stone unturned to see off this economic recession and have announced many stimulus packages for the Industry to recover.

 

The Eleventh Five Year Plan emphasised the need for removing infrastructure bottlenecks for sustained growth. The Government has proposed an investment of US $500 Billion in infrastructure sectors through a mix of public and private sectors to reduce deficits in identified infrastructure sectors. The private sector is expected to be contributing nearly 36% of this investment. To cater to the ever growing power consumption, rapid industrialisation and huge energy deficit, the Government of India has planned to make large capital expenditure in the 11th Five Year Plan in the Power Generation, Transmission and Distribution segments and set a target of adding about 78000 MW of additional capacity of power generation in the 11th Five Year Plan and about 82000 MW capabilities of power generation in the 12th Five Year Plan. This will enable the company to cater to the ever growing demand of power transmission and distribution.

 

Your Company is looking for increasing its presence in Africa, Middle East and central Asia.

 

 

Company's Transmission and Distribution Division:

 

The Transmission and Distribution (T and D) business of the Company operates on Engineering Procurement Construction (EPC) basis in power transmission and distribution sector. With its execution capabilities, large manufacturing capacities for Transmission Tower and Conductor and Customer focus, your Company is recognised as a leading player in India.

 

The Company has set up world class Tower Testing Station at Deoli, Wardha, Maharashtra capable of testing towers up to 1200 Kv. The Tower Testing station has been acclaimed by domestic as well as international clients from the United States of America, Canada, Malaysia, Mexico etc. and the company has successfully tested towers up to 765 kV. R and D Centre set up at Deoli, Wardha is duly recognised by Department of Science and Technology, Government of India as R and D Centre.

 

The Company has also been expanding into overseas countries such as the United States of America, Canada, Malyasia, Algeria, Kenya, Afghanistan, Ethiopia, Bhutan, Nigeria, Ghana, Sri Lanka, Oman, Rwanda, Botswana, Tanzania, Mozambique, etc. We have been successful in penetrating Canadian markets with tower supply orders. The Company has received repeat orders of tower supply and tower testing from Canada.

 

With the thrust on privatization of transmission lines involving large investments in BOOT / BOO basis, the company is well positioned to capture the business opportunity having large manufacturing capacity for towers as well as conductors.

 

 

Company's Transmission Business (Domestic):

 

The TandD business of the Company mainly works with Powergrid, SEBs and private sector clients.

The power sector in India has an estimated capacity addition of more than 1,60,000 MW during the period 2012-17.

 

The Planning Commission, in its approach paper has projected an investment of over Rs. 45 Lakh Crore during the Twelfth Plan (2012-17). It is projected that at least 50% of this investment will come from the private sector against the 36% anticipated in Eleventh Plan and public sector investment will need to increase to over Rs. 225.000 Millions Crore as against an expenditure of Rs. 131.000 Millions Crore during Eleventh Plan. Financing infrastructure will, therefore, be a big challenge in the coming years and will require some innovative ideas and new models of financing. This entails expansion of transmission networks, strengthening of regional grids, building of more inter-related links and addition of inter-regional capacities of 23,600 MW, at 220 kV and above level. Opportunities also exist for the company in Built-Own-Operate (BOT) projects for setting up transmission line.

 

 

Company's Transmission Business (International):

 

The Company sees immense opportunities in the emerging markets such as Africa and Middle East on account of need of better power transmission network, funding support from multilateral agencies, power generation plans and spending by oil producing countries. The Company has bagged international orders from Ethiopia, Bhutan, Nigeria and Canada. It has also bagged orders for testing of towers from various domestic and international agencies.

 

Risk, Concernsand Threats:

 

The following are the major risks, concerns and threats to the business:

 

  • Exposure to variation of prices of commodities, foreign exchange, interest rates, and rising hike in US Dollar rates.
  • Exposure to risk of delay in execution due to right of way, forest clearances, approvals, etc
  • Changes in policies of Government and counties where it operates.
  • Increase of Government Taxes and duties.
  • Shortage of skilled manpower.

 

The risks are mitigated with proper mix of orders across various counties, timely and adequate hedging of commodities and exchange exposure, optimisation of working capital limits, efficient working capital management and reduction in finance costs.

 

To keep pace with the growth, Management is continuously conscious of the need to ensure that various functional departments of the Company work in proper co-ordination. The Management is also aware of geographical spread of its sites and has appropriate control mechanism in place.

 

 

Company's Quality System:

 

The Company has ISO 9001: 2008, ISO 14000:2004 and ISO 18001:2007 certifications for "Design, Development, Manufacture, Supply and Construction of Overhead Transmission Line for Turnkey Projects including Sub­station Structures, Microwave Towers and similar Structures" by an internationally reputed certification agency viz. Det Norske Veritas (DNV), Netherlands.

 

The ISO Certifications have enabled the Company to project a better image and inspire greater confidence amongst its clients. The certification continues to be authenticated by DNV through their audits every year.

 

 

INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS

 

Sofinter Group

 

The financial statement for Sofinter Group as at December 31, 2012 shows a net profit of Euro 2,369,646 on consolidated revenues of Euro 263 million. The Consolidated Financial Statement as at December 31, 2012 have been drawn up according to the IFRS accounting standards issued by the IASB and approved by the European Union (EU IFRS).

 

The net result of the Consolidated Financial Statement, for the first time in seven years, is again positive. This result was due to a combination of:

 

  • Careful management of contracts in progress which enabled the Group to maintain anticipated contract margins;
  • Particular attention to the structure costs that have been closely monitored and made as flexible as possible;
  • Controlling debts;
  • a process of unification of all organizational procedures, design and construction within the companies of the Group
  • Opening of opportunities in new markets as well as consolidation of the Group's presence in key markets

 

 

Macchi Division

 

The market in which the Macchi Division operates is made up of major Oil and Gas projects in the Middle East, Southeast Asia and South America, with access to business normally through international EPC contractors. The Oil and Gas market, despite the current international crisis, maintains certain dynamism, good business expectations and Macchi Division leadership in the segment of large industrial boilers is internationally recognized and well -established. In 2012 the company further consolidated its market position with significant orders from major international customers, including Shell.

 

In the first quarter of 2013, the Company established a Representative office in Houston, for the development of projects related to the energy sector, for the North American market, which after a period of stagnation, is showing a new dynamism.

 

In 2012, despite the unfavorable market conditions, the Company was able to obtain a volume of acquisitions of around Euro 110 million. As a result of these acquisitions, the project portfolio as of 31 December 2012 amounts to approximately Euro 140 million, resulting in strong production coverage for 2013. The current offer portfolio of the Macchi Division is approximately Euro 300 million.

 

SWS Division

 

The SWS Division is dedicated to the business of water treatment for industrial use. This business includes plants for filtration, demineralization, degassing and desalination of sea water with MED technology.

 

The market in which the SWS Division operates is parallel to the one in which the Macchi Division operates; this parallel and the synergies achieved have already demonstrated their importance from a commercial standpoint in certain recent acquisitions.

 

Sales activities in 2012 were principally directed to providing various offers to international EPC contractors. The business areas showing the greatest interest are the Middle East and South America, with good prospects for success.

 

 

Ansaldo Caldaie S.p.A.

 

In 2012, AnsaldoCaldaie completed its turn around by closing its financial year with a net profit of Euro 1,213,983 for the first time in seven years. All AnsaldoCaldaie orders were handled in full compliance with business plans and commercial budgets, thus maintaining the anticipated contract margins. This has mainly contributed to the return to profitability.

 

Oil, gas and coal boilers for producing electricity and HRSG boilers for combined cycle plants have been the main areas of sales activity in 2012. However, the order portfolio for 2012 is below planned levels, mainly due to a number of economic and social factors, including:

 

  • general financial uncertainty in global markets;
  • political uncertainty in the Middle East and North Africa regions;
  • delays in issuing environmental permits in South America;
  • slow growth of the Indian market because of problems relating to the supply of coal, water availability etc.

 

Customers of AnsaldoCaldaie, essentially international End Users of power stations, decisively slowed down their investment programs, due to the above reasons. The Company is still seeing the impact of this on new orders. However, AnsaldoCaldaie in the course of 2012 has a healthy pipeline of offers amounting to approximately Euro 3 billion. The countries where AnsaldoCaldaie is working such as Egypt, Morocco and Algeria, despite the risks related to the political crisis that has characterized this period, have neither impacted site operations nor investment plans in new capacities.

 

In the next 5 years forecast growth is in non-OECD countries with China and India in the lead, but also in the Middle East, Africa, Central and Southern America, all showing significant growth as well. The reputation of Ansaldo Caldaie in the market, its sound base technology, good capability of delivery and capacity to maintain contractual commitments will allow the Company to increase its presence in the markets around the world, in the years to come.

 

In order to consolidate the service activities, AnsaldoCaldaie has formed strategic alliances to meet the diverse needs of the market, in order to support a substantial growth plan in this business sector.

 

 

Europower

 

Europower has continued its activity in the field of operation and maintenance of industrial installation, with good results, especially with reference to installations for producing electrical energy and for the combustion of solid city wastes. The company was also awarded a major rehabilitation and O and M contract worth about Euro 50 million and has several significant orders in the pipeline, in Italy and abroad.

 

The consolidated net debt of the Sofinter Group at the end of 2012 was Euro 79.1 million, a marginal improvement of Euro 3.5 million over the previous year. The Group respected all the financial covenants imposed by the Interbank Modification Agreement signed in November 2011, for the year 2012.

 

In relation to its activity and the use of financial instruments, the Group is exposed to a multiplicity of risks. The Group adopts specific procedures for the management of risk factors that could influence the results of the company's operations, in order to minimize any potential consequences.

 

 

ITEA

 

In fiscal year 2012, ITEA has substantially completed research and performed tests for a wide range of fuels and industrial and urban waste for various clients, including in particular ENI. The tests performed finally confirmed that the flameless combustion technology patented by ITEA in major world countries represents a new way of burning, using also more complex and poorer quality fuels. Commercialization of the ITEA product continues, with particular reference to the biomass, industrial waste, municipal waste, and applications in the oil and gas sector, with specific reference to heavy crude oils and acid gas. In 2012, activities were launched in the U.S. through the establishment of a Joint Venture company with an industrial partner which received a grant of about 1 million US Dollars from the DOE (U.S Department of Energy) for constructing a deck using ITEA technology. The collaboration with ENEL started in the earlier years, continued in the field of coal combustion, also with perspectives related to the US market.

 

 

Franco Tosi Meccanica S.p.A.

 

During 2012, implementation of the Business Plan of Franco Tosi Meccanica S.p.A. (FTM) suffered due to the political and financial crisis in Italy and poor market conditions in general, for power equipment manufacturers. The company therefore slipped on commitments to its suppliers and creditors, who began mounting pressure through different legal means to recover their dues. Concurrently, inspite of the healthy order book of over EUR 130 mln, due to the non-cooperation from the banks and creditors; project deliveries began to slip, which considerably squeezed the company's topline and also resulted in substantial losses with the consequent erosion of net worth by more than 33% due to which the corporate capital has fallen below the minimum required by Italian law.

 

In this situation, if the company had formally approved its Financial Statements of 2012, the losses being more than 33% of the Corporate capital, Article 2447 of the Italian Civil code would have automically got triggered, making it mandatory for the Board to decide on recaptilisation of the company. However, such recaptilisation, if actioned, would not have safeguarded the end use of the money; since as stated herein before, the overdue unpaid creditors including the creditors for statutory debts would have forced payment of their dues from these funds, instead of these being used to drive operations.

 

This prompted the Board of FTM to consider the use of different legal instruments available under the laws of Italy to safeguard the company in a manner which would ensure continuity, and ultimately benefit all stake holders in this critical situation. To begin with, the Board of FTM, out of prudence decided against an audited Financial Statement of 2012. With this, the immediate urgency of recaptialising the company without a clear road map for the future to safeguard the operations was negated.

 

In addition, the Board of FTM filed on May 30th, 2013 with the court of Milan (and with the Companies Registry) a "preliminary" request for admission to the procedure of pre-insolvency composition agreement with creditors and restructuring debts ("concordato preventivo"), under Articles 161 Clause 6, Italian Government Publication dated 10 March 1942 no 267 - further amended in Sep 2012, in light of acute financial stress being faced by the company due to several extraneous reasons.

 

The said application was admitted by the Court on 7th June 2013. The Court on 25th July, 2013 has appointed a Commissioner, while maintaining the current Management and Board, whose task is to start appropriate procedures, including leasing, by which the operations of the company relating to the backlog and front log orders are preserved and completed while also drawing up a scheme for settlement of the outstanding debts of the creditors of the Company. The time limit available to the Commissioner and the Management to complete the above procedure and for the Court approval of the same is within the end of September/October 2013. Steps have been initiated to meet the above deadlines including the approval by the Court at which time the further way forward for the Company will get better defined.

 

 

SAE Power Lines S.r.L.

 

The Company in 2012, recorded a turnover of Euro 31.82 Million, an EBITDA of Euro (2.71) million and PAT of Euro (4.17) million. Further, the order book at the end of the financial year was Euro 54 million.

 

The Company had received orders from Ghana, Togo and Benin to the tune of approximately Euro 26 million during the year.

 

 

Campo Puma Oriente S.A.

 

The Puma Block Contract signed in March 2008 for a 20 year term, originally established as a Production Sharing Contract underwent a contract renegotiation process to migrate to the newly established Service Contract model implemented by the Hydrocarbon Ministry in Ecuador in 2010. The new contractual framework entitles the contractor to a dollar-per-barrel fee which is adjusted on a yearly basis based on the production price index, as reported by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Minimum Work Program obligations of the operator under the service contract, however, remain unchanged and are completed.

 

The Puma Block Service Contract was signed and registered on 1st Feb, 2011 for a 18 year term. 9 new development wells and 2 exploratory wells have been drilled and over 80sq km of 3-D seismic are completed. The Puma Field is producing approx. 2,000 barrels of oil per day, and clocked revenues of USD 14.28 million during 2012. The field potential can be increased to approx. 4000 barrels of oil per day with enhanced recovery techniques including artificial lift, acid stimulation and water injection, all of which are contemplated for action in 2013. The Incremental barrels so produced will be paid at enhanced rates which are presently under negotiation with the concerned agencies. The Puma Field has proved developed and undeveloped reserves of 17.25 million barrels of oil and further probable reserves in the order of 1.5 million barrels making a total of 18.75 million barrels of Oil.

 

 

REAL ESTATE BUSINESS:

 

Real estate plays a critical role in the development of the Indian economy. It is the second largest employer after agriculture. Over the next decade, the real estate sector is expected to grow by 30 per cent. The sector is divided into four sub-sectors: housing, retail, hospitality, and commercial. The housing sub-sector contributes 5-6% to the country's gross domestic product (GDP). Meanwhile, retail, hospitality and commercial real estate are also growing significantly, catering to India's growing needs of infrastructure.

 

The construction industry ranks third among the 14 major sectors in terms of direct, indirect and induced effects in all sectors of the economy, according to a study done by ICRA. A unit increase in expenditure in this sector has a multiplier effect and the capacity to generate income as high as five times. The positive effects of growth in real estate sector are spread over more than 250 ancillary industries.

 

Market Size

 

The Indian real estate market size is expected to touch US$ 180 billion by 2020. Demand for residential and retail real estate is rising throughout India, accompanied by increased demand for improved social infrastructure. India is going to produce an estimated 2 million new graduates from various Indian universities during this year, creating demand for 100 million square feet of office and industrial space.

 

Further, presence of a large number of Fortune 500 and other reputed companies will attract more companies to initiate their operational bases in India thus, creating more demand for corporate space.

 

Government Initiatives/Policies

 

This budding sector is today witnessing development in all areas such as - residential, retail and commercial. Easier access to bank loans and higher earnings by the ultimate user are some of the pivotal reasons behind the growing Indian real estate sector. Efforts to attract private investment into infrastructure through the Public-Private Partnership (PPP) route have met with considerable success at both Central Government and State Government levels.

 

With a view to catalyzing investment in townships, housing, built-up infrastructure and construction development projects as an instrument to generate economic activity, the Government of India has decided to allow FDI up to 100 per cent under the automatic route in townships. These create new employment opportunities and add to the available housing stock and built-up infrastructure.

 

Road Ahead

 

The real estate sector in India is ready to take a big leap in the coming years. Since 2010, the residential sector has been on a strong growth trajectory and with increasing urbanization the momentum is expected to continue. Strong demographic mix and increasing salary levels will be the key triggers for growth of the residential market in 2012. Salaried individuals in the age group of 30 to 35 years will emerge as the biggest contributors for demand in the residential category. This category of buyers has in past also been the main contributor to the growth of residential category. Most contractors in this are regional by nature and this a challenge for the Company to compete on the price and delivery

 

Contracting is generally trade specific as it is more tax efficient and the emergence of new tax laws shall give newer opportunities for general contracting with increased responsibility and trade volume.

 

The Company has during the year secured projects in the buildings sector valued at Rs. 6000.000 Millions spread across Mumbai and Bangalore region. The major clients include Nathani and Godrej.

 

The Company has also entered into a Joint Venture for developing its property situated at Ambivli, Andheri and is currently in the process of obtaining various approvals for the same.

The Company has successfully completed a few projects as under:

 

  • Hotel Leela Palace (5 Star), Chennai, with a built up area of approx. of 8 lakh Sqft.
  • GSTAAD Hotel, Bangalore.
  • Godrej Woodsmen Estate, Bangalore with a built up area of approx. 2.1 million Sqft.
  • Some of the major projects under execution include:
  • Iskcon temple project at Mayapur Kolkata.
  • Runwal Greens, a high-rise residential development in the central suburb at Mulund, Mumbai.
  • Salarpuria Gold one of the tallest Residential Tower of Sattva group at Bangalore.
  • Runwal Elegant, a high-rise residential development at Andheri, Mumbai.
  • Godrej Platinum, Bangalore a turnkey development of high end residential complex for Godrej Buildwell Private Limited

Note:

 

The Audited Financial Results were reviewed by the Audit Committee and taken on record by the Board of Directors of the Company at its meeting held on March 18, 2014.


The figures for the quarter ended December 31, 2013 are the balancing figure between the audited figures in respect of full financial period ended December 31, 2013 and the unaudited year to date published figures upto September 30, 2013.


2. The Auditor has qualified their audit report on the following matters:-


a) Their inability to opine on the adequacy of the provision towards impairment relating to investment in Franco Tosi Meccenica S.p.A. (FTM), step down subsidiary:


Management Response:


The application for a pre-insolvency procedure filed by FTM was admitted by the court of Milan on June 07, 2013 after having received confirmation of the possibility of continuity of the company, by calling for bids for the lease of its business. The successful bidder for the lease was foreseen to be finalized by early December 2013. However till date no decision in this regard is forthcoming. The continuous delay in final closure has put the ongoing projects at risk, unless immediate steps are taken to scale up the execution with intent to meet the existing project schedules. In light of the ongoing procedure no financial statements of the company have been released to date and it is expected that this will not be released until the entire process is complete. The management is in an advance stage of negotiation with intended buyer to sell its stake in the said company.


b) Their inability to opine on the adequacy of provision for impairment relating to Investment and advance in SAE S.r.l. step down subsidiary of the Company.


Management Response:


The Company has exposure towards investment and guarantee against acquisition loan. On the basis of offer received from intended buyer and following principle of conservatism the Company has made a provision of Rs. 1104.500 millions and Rs. 882.900 millions towards guarantees given for acquisition loan taken by SPV.


c) Amount contributed in excess of limit prescribe under Section 293(1)(e) of the Companies Act, 1956 of Rs. 5.200 millions


d) The Company's application for waiver of excess remuneration of Rs. 18.400 Millions paid to CMD and Rs. 2.500 Millions paid to an Executive Director during the year 2011-12 has been rejected. The Company has preferred a representation to the Ministry to reconsider its decision and reply is awaited.


The Company's application for payment of remuneration to Chairman and Managing Director for the year 2012-13 of Rs. 68.500 Millions and 2013-14 of Rs. 41.400 Millions is pending for approval with the Central Government.



The Company's application for payment of remuneration to Mr. Himanshu Parikh for year 2012-13 has been approved for Rs. 16.600 Millions as against proposed remuneration of Rs. 17.100 Millions.


3. The Company is engaged mainly in "Construction and Engineering" segment. The Company also has "Real Estate Development" and Windmills as other segments. Revenue from such activities is not significant and accounts for less than 10% of the total revenue and total assets of the Company. Therefore no disclosure of separate segment reporting as required in terms of Accounting Standard AS - 17 is done in respect of these segments.

4. The Board of Directors in their meeting held on February 18, 2014 and as confirmed by the CDR EG, the Company has closed its financial year as at December 31, 2013.
