MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

 

Financial Performance

 

The better management of working cycle has resulted in positive cash flow from operating activities during the year. Debtor’s days has been reduced to 88 days during the period.

 

During the year, The Company has delivered a robust year on year growth of 44% in consolidated revenues largely attributing to the success in the Middle East. The consolidated PAT has grown from 614 mn in FY 2013 to 665 mn in FY14 a rise of 8% year on year. The earnings per share was 3.02 in FY14 compared to 2.58 in the same period last year.

 

Future Growth:

 

Each sector be it education, technology, retail, manufacturing, services, entertainment, pharmaceutical, petrochemical, banking, etc is hungry for growth and all are looking for increasing capacities in their own capabilities which indirectly creates immense room for growth of the company.

 

Increasing urbanization and industrialization has also garnered attention from environmentalist and regulators towards fire protection. The fire protection industry has the support of the Indian Government and regulatory bodies. Strict rules for fire protection and safety would drive growth for the industry. The Government is expected to come with stringent norms for Fire detection and prevention. Housing societies and commercial complexes are also taking necessary steps to become fire safe and safeguard their localities.

 

Thus, the industry enjoys support from local bodies, associations and institutions also which would add to the demand pool. With leadership position and expertise in the fire protection, safety and security industry, coupled with the robust industry outlook the Company is well placed to leverage its strengths and utilize the opportunities available in the Indian fire protection industry.

 

Not only in India, but we also anticipated increase in demand globally. UAE which contributes to 55% of the total revenue of the Company will be hosting the World Expo 2020 in Dubai. There is an intense demand for quality residential and commercial properties in UAE as government incentives including the benefits such as zero per cent tax rate and free zones would draw companies from around the world to establish operations in Dubai. The Company is positioned to capture the higher growth potential of the growing markets.
