Comments : |
Nestle India was incorporated in 1959 and commenced commercial manufacturing operations in 1962 by setting up a plant in Moga (Punjab). The company manufactures products under four categories: 'Milk Products and Nutrition', 'Beverages', 'Prepared Dishes and Cooking Aids', and 'Chocolates and Confectionery'. Nestle India has eight manufacturing facilities in India - at Moga (Punjab), Samalkha (Haryana), Nanjangud (Karnataka), Ponda and Bicholim (Goa), Choladi (Tamil Nadu), Pantnagar (Uttarakhand) and at Tahliwal (Himachal Pradesh). Rating continue to reflect the company's leading market position in several product categories, well-established brands, diversified revenue profile, and extensive distribution network. Maggi noodles is estimated to account for around 20 per cent of Nestle India's revenue. Therefore, it is believed that stoppage of sale of this product will impact the company's operating performance over the near term. However, the stoppage is unlikely to have any significant adverse impact on Nestle India's other business segments. Ratings also factor in the technical support that it continues to receive from its parent, Nestle SA, which is the world's largest players in the branded and packaged foods sector. Moreover, the company continues to have a healthy financial risk profile because of strong cash generation, minimal debt, and ample liquidity. Nestle India is exposed to increasing and intense competition in the domestic FMCG market, with the entry of new players, including multinationals, in various segments including instant noodles and packaged foods. Furthermore, the company would pursue resolution of the class action suit filed before the National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission seeking about Rs.6.4 billion in damages for alleged unfair trade practices and sale of defective goods. In view of aforesaid, the company can be considered good for normal business dealings at usual trade terms and conditions. |

FINANCIAL RESULTS AND
OPERATION
Net Sales have increased by 8.2%. Net Domestic Sales grew by 8.6% mainly from better realizations. Export Sales grew by 2.9% impacted by lower coffee exports to Russia. Earnings Per Share at `122.87 increased by 6%.
The increase in Other Income is mainly due to higher realization of export incentives. Finance Costs have reduced mainly due to repayment of External Commercial Borrowings.
The Impairment Loss on Fixed Assets of Rs.81.100 million relates to various items of plant and machinery and building that have been brought down to their recoverable value upon evaluation of future economic benefits from their use.
The Company supplemented the Provision for Contingencies with further amount of Rs.613.800 million (net) for contingencies resulting mainly from issues, which are under litigation/dispute and other uncertainties requiring management judgement. This was after the reversal, utilisation/settlement of contingency provision of Rs.121.000 million due to the satisfactory settlement of certain litigations and settlement of obligations under free replacement warranty for which provision is no longer required.

Note:
1. Results for the quarter and nine months ended 30th September, 2015 have been impacted by the MAGGI Noodles issue. The trust of its consumers and the safety and quality of its products is Nestle's foremost priority. Unfortunately, developments and growing concerns about the product had led to an environment of confusion for the consumers to such an extent that the Company, on 5th June, 2015, decided to take the products temporarily off the shelves, despite the product being safe. This was done to reassure the consumers that their trust has always been of utmost importance for the Company and to maintain their continued patronage for Company's products. The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) issued a recall order later on the same day i.e. 5th June, 2015 asking the Company to recall MAGGI Noodles, stop further manufacture and comply with other directions. In line with the instructions from the authorities and in keeping with environmental considerations, the withdrawn products were sent for high temperature thermal destruction and the Company suspended further manufacturing of MAGGI Noodles. The Company has conducted extensive additional tests, of over 3500 samples representing over 200 million packs of MAGGI Noodles, in both national and international accredited laboratories. All results confirm levels of lead are well below the permissible limits. Furthermore, several other countries have found MAGGI Noodles safe after testing samples of the product exported from India. With a view to resolving the issue, the Company approached the Hon’ble Bombay High Court raising issues of interpretation of the Food Safety and Standards Act 2011, whilst seeking judicial review of the order dated 5th June, 2015 passed by FSSAI and order dated 6th June, 2015 passed by the Commissioner of Food Safety, Maharashtra (FDA). The Hon’ble Bombay High Court vide its Order dated 13th August, 2015 read along with Order dated 4th September, 2015 revoked the ban order passed by FSSAI and FDA and directed fresh testing of MAGGI Noodles for lead at three NABL (National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories) accredited FSSAI notified laboratories. Results from these laboratories were received by 16th October, 2015. 100% of the samples tested are clear with lead much below the permissible limits. In compliance with the directions of the Hon’ble Bombay High Court, the Company has thereafter started manufacture in three out of the five factories having MAGGI Noodles manufacturing capabilities and discussions are on with the authorities to commence manufacture in the remaining factories in Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand. Samples from the fresh manufacture have been sent to the same three laboratories to test for lead. Sale of MAGGI Noodles will commence only after the results are dear and other regulatory clearances, where necessary, are obtained. Net Sales worth Rs. 153.2 million have been reversed during the quarter (Cumulative: Rs. 3037.0 million) in relation to MAGGI Noodles stock being withdrawn from trade partners and market. The exceptional item relates to estimates of loss on account of stocks withdrawn including incidental costs thereto and other related costs incurred exclusively in the ordinary course of Company's business, dealt with in line with the Accounting Standard AS 2 on "Valuation of Inventories" and Accounting Standard AS 5 on "Net Profit or Loss for the Period, Prior Period Items and Changes in Accounting Policies".
2. Results for the quarter/ nine months ended 30th September, 2015 are not comparable with the results of the corresponding/sequential periods (Refer Note - 1 above).
3. "Net Sales" for the quarter have decreased by 32.1% largely due to the impact of MAGGI Noodles issue (Refer Note - 1 above). "Net Domestic Sales" decreased by 33.8%. "Export Sales" decreased by 6.4% which is impacted by MAGGI Noodles issue and lower sales to Nepal due to blockage of border in the last week of September, 2015.
4. The Company has reviewed and reassessed useful life of fixed assets as per Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013. Accordingly depreciation has been computed on reassessed useful lives based on technical evaluation of relevant class of assets. As a result depreciation charge for the quarter is higher by Rs. 45.000 million (Jan - Sep'15: Rs.187.100 million). Further, for assets whose reassessed remaining useful life as on 1st January, 2015 is Nil, depreciation of Rs. 193.900 million (net of deferred tax) has been adjusted against the retained earnings in accordance with the transitional provision as specified in Schedule II.
5. "Net Provision for Contingencies" is mainly for matters related to litigations and related disputes. Provisions for Contingencies/ Contingent Liabilities / Contingent Assets are recognised/ disclosed after a careful evaluation of the facts and legal aspects of the matter involved, in line with the provision of Accounting Standard AS 29 on "Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets".
6. "Other Income" has increased as last year the liquidities were used for repayment of External Commercial Borrowings (ECB).
7. Total cost of the employee benefit plans continue to be fully charged to the statement of profit and loss. While the amounts relating to current service cost and actuarial gains/ losses continue to be included in "Employee Benefits Expense"; the increase in cost of employee benefit plans, due to passage of time (net of return on plan assets) is presented under "Employee Benefits Expense due to passage of time" in line with the Accounting Standard AS 15 on "Employee Benefits"
8. As the Company's business activity falls within a single primary business segment, namely Food, the disclosure requirements of Clause 41 of the Listing Agreement in terms of Accounting Standard AS 17 on "Segment Reporting" are not applicable.
9. Previous period's figures have been regrouped / reclassified wherever necessary, to make them comparable with the current period.
THE ABOVE RESULTS AND THIS RELEASE HAVE BEEN REVIEWED BY AUDIT COMMITTEE OF THE
BOARD AND APPROVED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AT THEIR MEETING HELD ON 29th
OCTOBER, 2015.

MAGGI NOODLES -
HON’BLE BOMBAY HIGH COURT VERDICT

The trust of their consumers and safety of their products are their utmost priorities across all the markets in which they operate.

Nestlé India remains committed to working with the FSSAI, FDA Maharashtra and other stakeholders.
It is Nestlé India’s endeavour to get MAGGI Noodles back on the shelves as soon as possible for the benefit of their consumers.
SURESH NARAYANAN TO
REPLACE ETIENNE BENET AS NESTLÉ INDIA MD
Fri, July 24 2015
The move to appoint an Indian as the managing director of
the company is a step in the right direction, said analysts
Mumbai: In the midst of one of the largest-ever food recalls in the country, Nestlé India Limited is putting an Indian at the helm to manage the crisis.
The company’s managing director Etienne Benet is stepping down with immediate effect and will be replaced by Suresh Narayanan, who is currently the chairman of Nestlé Philippines, the company said in a statement to BSE on Friday.
Benet is leaving with effect from 25 July 2015 and will be relocating to Nestlé Group head office in Switzerland.
“Nomination has been received from Nestlé SA for the appointment of Suresh Narayanan as the managing director of the company with effect from 1 August 2015,” said the company, adding that Narayanan has been with the group since 1999 and has a great deal of experience in India and overseas.
Since 1998, Nestlé has been led by expatriates in the country. In its hour of crisis, in the wake of the Maggi noodles ban, it found itself lacking a local face who could communicate directly and well with regulators and the media, Mint said in a 10 June story.
In contrast with Nestlé India, Hindustan Unilever Limited (HUL), also a multinational, has been led by Indians since Prakash Tandon took over as the first chairman of the company in 1961. At that time, 191 of HUL’s 205 managers were Indian, a timeline on the company’s website says.
The move to appoint an Indian as the managing director of the company is a step in the right direction, said analysts. “In such a large and diverse country like India, having an Indian as CEO is critical,” said Abneesh Roy, associate director, Institutional Equities-Research, Edelweiss Securities Ltd, while pointing out that multinationals like HUL and Procter and Gamble Co. have Indian chief executive officers running the business.
Interestingly, Nestlé India has enjoyed significant success in localizing its products or at least their usage—first with Milkmaid, a condensed milk offering that the company cleverly positioned as the ideal ingredient in tasty Indian desserts and then with Maggi, which has now been taken off the shelves.
Since 5 June when the ban was imposed on Maggi, Nestlé has destroyed 24,000 tonnes of the 30,000 tonnes of Maggi stock. This has caused a loss of Rs.25000.000 Million, amounting to 20% of the company’s annual revenues in India, Nestlé India’s counsel Iqbal Chagla said last Friday before the Bombay high court where the company is appealing against the national food regulator’s ban.
The regulator, Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI), termed Maggi “unsafe and hazardous” for human consumption after finding high levels of lead and the presence of taste enhancer monosodium glutamate, on 5 June. The FSSAI also noted the company’s violation of product approvals in launching Maggi Oats, terming the act a breach of trust.
On Friday, shares of Nestlé India closed at Rs.6025.85, down 0.46% on BSE, while the Sensex closed at 28.112.31, down 0.91%.
NESTLE RESUMES MAGGI
NOODLES PRODUCTION AT ALL FIVE PLANTS IN INDIA
Mon, November 30 2015
Nestle, which relaunched Maggi noodles on 9 November after
a 5-month ban, resumed production at its Tahliwal plant in Himachal Pradesh
New Delhi: Nestle India Limited on Monday said it has resumed production of Maggi noodles at all five facilities in India.
Nestle, which relaunched Maggi noodles on 9 November after a five-month ban, has started production of Maggi noodles from its Tahliwal plant in Himachal Pradesh. Nestle manufacturers Maggi noodles at its plants in Nanjangud (Karnataka), Moga (Punjab), Bicholim (Goa), Tahliwal and Pantnagar in Himachal Pradesh.
“The company has resumed manufacturing of Maggi noodles at its Tahliwal (Himachal Pradesh) factory. With this, the company has resumed manufacture of Maggi noodles at all five noodle manufacturing facilities,” Nestle said in a BSE filing.
In June, the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) had banned Maggi noodles, saying it was “unsafe and hazardous” for consumption after finding lead content beyond permissible limits. Nestle India, which took a hit ofRs.450 crore including destroying over 30,000 tonnes of the instant noodles since June when it was banned because of alleged excessive lead content, had stated that it would continue with the existing formula of the product and would not change the ingredients.
The consumer affairs ministry had also filed a class action suit against Nestle India, seeking about Rs.6400.000 Million in damages for alleged unfair trade practices, false labeling and misleading advertisements. It was for the first time that the ministry dragged a company to the National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission (NCDRC) using a provision in the nearly three decade-old Consumer Protection Act.
Reeling under the Maggi ban, Nestle India had on 29 October reported 60.1% decline in stand-alone net profit atRs.1242.000 Million for the third quarter ended September 2015. Its net sales had declined 32.12% to Rs.17362.000 Million. It had reported a stand-alone loss of Rs.644.000 Million in the second quarter for the first time in last 15 years due to the ban on Maggi.
