NATURE OF BUSINESS

 

Subject is a premier Air-Conditioning and Engineering company was established in the year 1954. It is a Tata Group company in the field of air conditioning, refrigeration, in the business of electro-mechanical projects as an EPC contractor both in domestic and international geographies (Middle East and Singapore), and also in the business of engineering product services for mining, water management and treatment, construction equipments and textile industry.

 

 

OPERATIONS

 

There is an uptick in economic sentiment in India largely led by announcements and some positive news inflow. While the HSBC Purchasing Managers Index has remained above 50 for most part of the year, other macro indicators like GDP, inflation and deficits are demonstrating an encouraging trend. All these factors have contributed to a general perception of improved macro-economic stability. However, this mood has not translated into increased demand in the domestic business environment. Additionally, the Projects business has had to contend with several current day concerns which plague the industry, such as the slow pace of execution, delays in approval of designs, timely certification, and resolution of claims and final settlement of accounts.

 

Overall, led by a drop in turnover of the Projects business, the Consolidated Sales/Income from Operations was at Rs. 52050.000 Million as compared to Rs. 53030.00 Million last year. Nevertheless, improved margin realization and greater cost controls contributed to higher Profit before Exceptional items and tax at Rs. 4670.000 Million, as compared to Rs. 3180.000 Million in the previous year. During the year, an exceptional charge of Rs.  1900.000 Million was taken to the Statement of Profit and Loss for Sidra, a well-known onerous contract which was offset by an exceptional income of Rs. 2360.000 Million realized on sale of property. Accordingly, Profit before Tax was higher at Rs. 5130.000 Million as compared to Rs. 3400.000 Million last year. Net Profit after Minority Interest was similarly higher at Rs. 3840.000 Million.

 

Despite its fair share of challenges, the Room AC industry had a comparatively better year, reporting growth of over 20%, following two consecutive years of slow growth. The growth in volumes was partly owing to favourable weather conditions along with a general improvement in customer sentiment. The Unitary Cooling Products business through various strategic marketing and sales promotion activities, has sustained its leadership position throughout the year and had widened its lead over its competition. This lead is reflective of the strong brand recall and associated customer pull that the Voltas brand now commands. There was also good growth in water dispensers and commercial refrigeration products. The steady rise in margin realization is due to favourable product mix (including growth in share of Split ACs), suitably complemented by optimization of procurement costs coupled with increased sales volumes. At the same time, the popular 0% finance scheme continues to add to the overall spend on promotion schemes. Neverthless, the business contributed substantially to the Company's turnover and profits.

 

Similarly, the Textile Machinery business, despite environment led adversities, has recorded higher Revenue and Profit as compared to last year. The China effect leading to correction in cotton yarn prices and drop in yarn exports saw many mills curtailing utilization levels as well as taking all possible steps to cut losses. The more recent drop in domestic prices has eased some of the pressure, but the sentiments and operating levels of local spinning mills remain muted. The tight liquidity conditions and delays disbursement of funds by financial institutions have added to the difficulties of this business. Meanwhile, the strategic focus on the parts and service business as well as diversification into post spinning assists the business to remain on an upward growth trajectory.

 

The revenue and profitability of Mining and Construction Equipment business were lower in 2014-15 as compared to last year due to transition of certain agency lines on global consolidation. At the same time, the Indian Mining Industry is passing through various setbacks, including mining bans, policy paralysis, Supreme Court cancelling allocation of coal blocks, etc. Nevertheless, the foray overseas into Africa has helped the business to partially offset the drop in demand in the domestic market. Mozambique operations continue to remain strong, with additional orders and healthy contribution to the bottom line.

 

In the Domestic Projects business, announcements are yet to translate into on the ground improvement. Slow pace of execution and delayed payments continue to put strain on the overall margins of this business. The larger metro project orders are yet to pick up given the slow pace of civil works. However, the launch of a timely business efficiency improvement program has led to various improvements in the processes and systems, leading to realization of better margins and savings in cost. Collection of outstanding and realization of money through settlements remain a priority for this business.

 

Similarly, during the last 12-18 months, the International Projects business has also taken various actions to strengthen its internal capability to plan and address some critical challenges. In anticipation of heightened level of activity in the run-up to mega events such as FIFA and Dubai Expo, the competition levels have gone up manifold, leading to difficulty in procuring new orders at reasonable margins. Moreover, the increased propensity to dispute and delay payments have further compounded the adverse situation for existing projects. To mitigate these challenges, the business has adopted a stringent commercial approach apart from changes made in the leadership team. However, extension of project completion dates and delays in settlement have necessitated conservative accounting in line with the requirements of Accounting Standard (AS)-7.

 

In the previous years, due to significant upward revision in estimated costs of the Sidra Medical and Research Centre project in Qatar, the Company had accounted for cost overruns in accordance with the requirement of AS-7. In July 2014, the Main Contractor was terminated by the end customer (Qatar Foundation) and a new main contractor was appointed. Although Qatar Foundation had asked for the assignment of contracts of select subcontractors of the Main Contractor, no understanding could be reached. In view of the uncertainties attached to the sub-contract, the Company has, as a matter of prudence, charged off Rs. 1900.000 Million to the Statement of Profit and loss after evaluation of underlying assets and liabilities and contingencies related thereto. Nevertheless, the Company continues to pursue its entitlements and has sought legal advice on the way forward.

 

The Company has adopted a strategy of selectively booking new orders with reasonable margins instead of aggressively pursuing turnover growth. The operating teams have defined business boundaries and key parameters to facilitate inflow of right quality of new orders. At the same time, Corporate extends support in ensuring that the strategy is implemented in a risk-mitigated manner. Risk assessments and Techno commercial audits, both while booking jobs and during execution of the projects, are prudently carried out. In parallel, there is also an added thrust on speedy closure of old projects under execution. During 2014-15, new orders aggregating Rs. 22380.000 Million were booked and the consolidated order book of Projects business was Rs. 38930.000 Million at the year end.

 

FINANCE

 

For most part of the year, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) maintained its stance with high interest rates and tight liquidity. However, more recently, RBI announced successive rate cuts, taking the repo rate down to 7.5 per cent. The 50 basis points (bps) cut was in response to the perception of risk emanating from low capacity utilization and weak indicators of production and credit off-take. These cuts come on the back of moderating inflation data given sharp correction in global oil prices. The actions taken by RBI also extend support to the Government which is pushing the revival of economic growth.

 

The Products business continues to provide much needed liquidity given the various challenges faced by the Projects businesses. Unitary Cooling Products business via support from initiatives like channel financing, cash discounts, etc., has been able to restrict credit to a minimum level whilst improving collections. The Engineering Products business with its lean organization structure, continues to deliver steady cash flows.

 

The Projects businesses face working capital pressures magnified by an increasing tendency of customers to delay and dispute certifications and payments. Settlements have become increasingly hard due to tight liquidity conditions of the end customer. In response, both International and Domestic projects businesses have become increasingly cash conscious and are making all possible efforts to recover their commercial entitlements. While the strong drive has yielded good results, the pain continues for some of the on-going projects, including the Sidra project at Qatar and puts significant strain on the Company’s finances.

 

The overall cash position has been strengthened by increasing the cash and liquid investments to Rs.  12810.000 Million From Rs.  9540.000 Million in the previous year. At the same time, borrowings specific to overseas projects were reduced substantially from Rs. 2630.000 Million in previous year to Rs.1220.000 Million at a consolidated level. The focus on cash flow and working capital has started yielding some results. However, the vigil will need to be maintained given the various environment led challenges.

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

OVERVIEW

 

The global economy continued to show some improvement through 2014-15, with the US evidently in revival mode, as seen from the various data points including the more recent strengthening of the Dollar. Europe, however, has not picked up its pace, and remains in peril of continued recession. China too seems to be losing momentum after multiple years of steady growth. Meanwhile, with the steep correction of international crude oil prices, the Middle East geographies in which the Company operates might moderate their spending, which is presently directed more towards the social sector and core infrastructure.

 

On the Domestic front, economic sentiment has shown an uptick, amidst high expectations sparked by encouraging announcements and news, post the election of a stable Government at the Centre. The nation's macro-economic situation has improved, with inflation and the Current Account Deficit largely under control, and the GDP showing recovery. Similarly, the HSBC Purchasing Managers' Index has remained in positive territory for over a year. RBI also exhibited optimism in lowering the Repo rate and marginally bringing down bank interest rates. However, the environment of positivity failed to raise demand or investment levels. The industry remained at a sub-par 72% capacity utilization as per RBI estimates. Private sector spending remained constrained, especially on capital goods; and credit growth stayed slow. Although industrial production grew by 2.8% overall, sluggish performance persisted in key verticals such as automotive, metals, infra and real estate, while IT and pharma slowed down in Q4 (2014-15) after building up growth momentum earlier. Nevertheless, there is hope of a revival, based on the Government's announcements of intent.

 

Against this backdrop, the Company unveiled its newly crafted Vision 2020, 'Driving value through smart engineering', defining a new identity for the Company to govern future growth. The focus will be on enhancing the value proposition, with 'smart' and ‘sensible’ engineering solutions based on consumer insights. These offerings will feature best-in-class technologies, delivered by a dynamic and engaged workforce that believes in improvement through innovation. The new Vision will be supported by 5 SWIFT pillars: Smart thinking, Winning attitude, Innovation, Flexibility and Teamwork.

INTERNATIONAL

GCC countries have managed to keep up their diversification and reform efforts supported by fiscal expansionary policies, over the first half of 2014-15. The drop in oil prices in the latter half, which could constrain government spending, could yet impede these activities. While there has been some growth in the number of new project enquiries, this has unfortunately been often accompanied by illogical commercial conditions, particularly in Qatar. The business has however succeeded in securing appropriately risk mitigated orders worth Rs. 11850.000 Million over the course of the year. Some of these are currently in the early stages of execution and will hopefully, provide an uptick to earnings in the coming year. The total carry-forward order book of International Projects amounts to Rs.  18710.000 Million, which includes proportionate share of orders booked by JVs.

 

The Company had simultaneously focused on the commercial closure and resolution of legacy projects, but disputes and delayed payments continue to be the order of the day. Meanwhile visa issues, design changes, non-availability of work fronts (impacted by the crawling pace of Main Contractor’s construction activity), etc. are challenges that sub-contractors like Voltas constantly wrestle with. The iconic Yas Mall project in Abu Dhabi was successfully inaugurated in December 2014 and the World Trade Center in Abu Dhabi is fast approaching readiness for handover, following testing and commissioning

 

DOMESTIC PROJECTS

 

 

The difficulties of the contracting environment in India and the slow pace of project execution are well known and require no elaboration. Delayed payments and postponed projects continue to strain and challenge the overall performance of this business. Some of the newer projects including Metro have yet to pick up pace, leading to a drop in turnover. Nevertheless, the business efficiency improvement program which had commenced earlier has helped to improve the internal processes and systems, thereby contributing to an improvement in profitability.

 

The Company's Domestic Projects business was able to garner several new projects aggregating Rs. 10530.000 Million in line with the Company's selection criteria of reasonable threshold margins and sound credit ratings. However, there continued to be delays in finalization of many projects, due to the continuing sentiment of risk-aversion and cautious investments. Meanwhile, the business also established itself in rural electrification specifically in Madhya Pradesh, with projects aggregating Rs.1800.000 Million for electrification of around 2000 villages. Overall, the segment's carry-forward order book as of 31st March, 2015 stood at Rs. 38930.000 Million.

TEXTILE MACHINERY

 

The Indian textile industry went through some turbulence, in contrast to its healthy growth in 2013-14. China revised its Cotton Policy to cut down on yarn imports from India and rely on its own surplus cotton stock. This led to a steep correction in yarn prices, adversely impacting the domestic spinning industry and dampening demand for textile machinery. Textile manufacturers in the Southern States were also hit by power cuts.

 

Nonetheless, the Company's Textile Machinery business grew at reasonable rates, in tandem with the growth of the Lakshmi Group and other Principals and sustained its leadership in spinning machinery. Additionally, the Company's focus on the parts, accessories and allied machinery segments aided the growth of business. In post spinning business activities, the Company further established its weaving solutions by leveraging positive referrals from customers.

 

 

OPPORTUNITIES AND OUTLOOK

 

ELECTRO-MECHANICAL PROJECTS AND SERVICES

 

DOMESTIC

 

Following years of a muted investment environment and policy paralysis, the formation of an industry friendlygovernment at the Centre raised hopes of a possible revival. However, the situation on the ground is yet to change significantly. Nevertheless, given the pent up demand and need for improvement in infrastructure, it is expected that both private and public spending would increase. Promising opportunities are also likely from the new educational institutes and medical facilities being facilitated by the Government, where the Company can leverage its prior experience. There are also good prospects in rural electrification in certain geographies, for which the Company is well-equipped via its wholly-owned subsidiary, Rohini Industrial Electricals Limited (RIEL).

 

Water and waste water management projects are expected to accelerate, once appropriate policy and funding decisions are made. The 'Clean Ganga' investments could probably yield good business opportunities for the Company, in sewage and effluent treatment plants. The expected growth in cold storage sectors will increase the demand for process refrigeration, for which the Company’s Low Temperature equipment is well suited.

 

INTERNATIONAL

 

Despite the slippage of oil prices in late 2014, the GCC construction sector is expected to see reasonable growth in awarding of new projects. In the building segment, United Arab Emirates and Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) could offer good opportunities in terms of value of projects that are budgeted by the Governments.

 

Mega events of FIFA 2022 and the Expo 2020 will remain enablers for business opportunities in Qatar and Dubai, respectively, coupled with travel and tourism-related projects. Also, these are the two States which are potentially less affected by the oil plunge. However, the ability to compete successfully and procure right quality orders which are suitably risk mitigated is key to future profitability. With the GCC nations increasingly turning their focus to social infrastructure projects, the Company is also examining the feasibility of pursuing projects in adjacent MEP sectors, such as the industrial, water and refrigeration segments.

 

With the objective of increasing productivity, the Company introduced MEP prefabrication as a staple construction methodology. Additionally, the use of BIM has also been introduced for MEP drawings, to prevent on-site clashes and conflicts. These measures while improving efficiency, safety and speeding up delivery, would also offer the Company, an appropriate key advantage in the market place

Although the industry has been through a difficult year, it has high expectations that the Central Government will suitably incentivize economic revival helping to raise the operating levels of textile and apparel companies in 2015-16. Once cotton and yarn prices bottom out, industry sentiment is also expected to take a positive turn and accelerate off-take of spinning machinery. Additionally, it is expected that Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and Uttar Pradesh will finalize and announce favourable State-level textile policies that will boost the demand.

 

 

The post-spinning segment expects to benefit from the Textile Upgradation Fund and creation of special zones dedicated to weaving and knitting activities. In time, India is projected to grow its share of apparel exports to the US and the European Union, which would further energize the business.
