Comments :

Subject was incorporated in the year 1986 and it is engaged in manufacturing of specialty steel and value added steel products. It is an established company having moderate track record.

 

As per 2015 financial record, the company has reported some accumulated losses from its business operations from past few years.

 

Rating is further constrained on account of deterioration in overall gearing due to reduction in networth on account of loss incurred from its operations and increase in external borrowings recorded during the year under review.

 

However, the rating derives strength from long experience and satisfactory track record of the promoters, leadership position in the domestic steel wire ropes industry, strong presence in the export market.

 

Trade relations are fair. Business is active. Payments are reported to be slow but correct.

 

In view of aforesaid, the company can be considered for business dealings with some caution.

GENERAL INFORMATION

 

Usha Martin Limited (the ‘Company’) is a public limited company domiciled in India, incorporated under the provisions of the Companies Act, 1956 and is listed on two stock exchanges in India and its GDRs are listed on stock exchange in Luxembourg. The Company is engaged in the manufacturing of speciality steel and value added steel products. The Company caters to both domestic and international markets.

 

 

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

 

The turnover for the year increased to Rs. 45611.000 Million on consolidated basis and Rs. 37460.500 Million on standalone basis from Rs. 40738.300 Million and Rs. 32871.200 Million respectively in the previous year. Despite there being suboptimal business conditions for steel and mining industry, the Company could achieve a growth of 12% and 14% respectively. However, operating profit reduced on consolidated basis from Rs.7994.300 Million in previous year to Rs.7534.800 Million in the current financial year and on standalone basis from Rs.6928.100 Million to Rs.6463.800 Million. Consequently operating margins lowered to 16.5% and 17.3% on consolidated and standalone basis respectively.

 

As per decision of Hon’ble Supreme Court of India which de-allocated coal mines, there was an additional levy of Rs.830.000 Million on the production of coal since beginning of coal mining operations to 31st March, 2015. This, along with other write downs on investment made in coal mines amounting to Rs.164.300 Million, has been shown as exceptional items. The net loss after tax was Rs.2531.200 Million on consolidated basis and Rs.2924.100 Million on standalone basis for the financial year 2014-15.

 

 

OUTLOOK AND BUSINESS

 

During the year there has been a formation of central government with clear majority after a long period of time in the past. This has ushered in positive hopes of government taking bold initiatives for accelerating the process of recovery and growth in business conditions with enduring sustainability.

 

However, during the year the steel industry has witnessed lowest production growth in the recent past and touching as low as 0.5%. The major segment which consumes the Company’s product, i.e automobile, has also seen mixed conditions. During the 2nd half of the year, the increased cheaper imports have also created new threats for the industry.

 

These difficult conditions in steel industry have also been felt in wire and wire rope business as well across the global and in domestic markets. In September, 2014 the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India de-allocated the coal mines allotted since 1993 and imposed additional levy @ Rs.295 per MT on the coal produced since beginning to 31st March, 2015. As a result, the Company’s two coal mines viz. Kathautia and Lohari coal mines were also de-allocated and the Company had to incur Rs.830.000 Million on its’ coal production from beginning. Kathautia coal mine was already operational whereas Lohari coal mine was yet to be made operational.

 

As a part of subsequent new policy initiatives, the Central Government decided to allocate coal mines through e-auctions. The Company participated in these auctions and successfully won Brinda and Sasai coal block in Jharkhand at a price of Rs.1804 per MT. This coal block is expected to be commissioned for production in financial year 2017-18. After completion of cost optimization projects during the previous financial year, beneficiation and pellet plants were under stabilization during the current financial year.

 

The manufacturing unit of the Company at Nawalgang, Agra has been closed down and appropriate steps are being taken to dispose off the surplus assets lying in the said location.

 

No material changes and commitments have taken place since close of the previous financial year and till the date of this report which may significantly affect the financial position of the Company adversely.

 

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

COMPANY OVERVIEW

 

BUSINESS CONFIGURATION

 

Usha Martin is an integrated specialty steel and value added steel products Company, having business locations across various parts of the world including through its subsidiaries and/or joint ventures.

 

The Company has state-of-art integrated steel plant near Jamshedpur (Jharkhand) producing a wide range of specialty steel wire rods and bars, with captive iron ore mine in Jharkhand. The other/auxiliary products include iron ore pellet, coke, DRI, hot metal, pig iron, sinter, oxygen and power generation, primarily for captive consumption. Until 31st March, 2015 the Company had coal mining also at its’ Kathautia block which got de-allocated by the decision of Hon’ble Supreme Court of India in September 2014. Under the new policy initiative of fresh e-auctions, the Company participated in bid and successfully won Brinda and Sasai Coal block in Jharkhand. The operations in this coal mine are likely to commence in FY’18.

 

With stabilization of projects like pellet, coke and additional DRI and power generation set up to FY’14, the Company has strengthened cost model in its steel business to increase competitiveness.

 

The Company is one of the largest producers of specialty steel in India, catering to requirements of automotive, railways, defence and general engineering sectors.

 

The steel products manufactured at Jamshedpur facilities were sold in the market to the extent of 69% and balance 31% was for in-house production of value added products such as wire ropes, wires, strands and bright bars at Ranchi, Hoshiarpur, Chennai and Bangkok.

 

In steel wire rope manufacturing, the Company is the largest in India and one of the largest in the world. Its manufacturing plants are located at Ranchi and Hoshiarpur in India, and in Thailand, Dubai and the UK overseas. The wide range of wire ropes produced by the Company has applications in offshore oil exploration, mining,  levators, cranes, bridges, infrastructure, construction, fishing and variety of general purposes. Besides wire ropes, other value added products include cords, strands, wires, bright bars and oil tempered wires. The Company has also a plant at Chennai to manufacture bright bars.

 

The global business of wire rope is supported by marketing, distribution and rigging facilities at various locations in the USA, Europe and Asia. The Company provides products and solutions for oil and gas sectors for anchoring, drilling and mooring applications from its facilities at Aberdeen in UK. Further, the Company has an RandD Centre in Italy. The Company has an in-house machinery manufacturing facility at Ranchi for captive engineering requirements as well as to cater to external demand in India and export markets.

 

Through one of its wholly owned subsidiary in India, the Company also manufactures a wide range of telecommunication cables meant for variety of applications and caters to requirements of domestic and export markets.

 

The strategy of integration places the Company distinctly in a unique position by combining both ends of value chain, from iron ore mining to high value wire ropes and further providing end use solutions on its key product applications. In addition to providing benefits of quality, consistency and self-sufficiency for principal raw materials, it provides captive markets for a sizeable portion of the finished products, thereby de-risking both the businesses. Also it enables the Company to aspire to become truly competitive across the entire value chain of its chosen products.

 

 

STEEL BUSINESS

 

Despite subdued steel market, the Company was able to achieve higher sale in rolled product volumes. In line with Company’s strategy for strengthening its market position, the Company successfully penetrated crankshaft segment in Commercial Vehicles during the year. Developmental work for Car and 2 wheeler segments where the

Company has limited presence is being carried out.

 

The Hon’ble Supreme Court of India by its’ order in September 2014 deallocated all the coal mines allotted by the Government of India since 1993. The Company’s two coal mines namely Kathautia coal block, which was in operations since 2010, and another one namely Lohari Coal block which was yet to be developed, were de-allocated. As per this order Kathautia coal mine was being operated by the Company until 31st March 2015.

 

In addition, by the said order of Hon’ble Supreme Court of India, an additional levy of Rs. 295 per MT was imposed for the coal produced. Accordingly the Company had to incur Rs.837.300 Crs of such additional levy on production of entire quantity of coal at Kathautia mine from commencement of production in 2010 until 31st March, 2015.

 

Under the new policy initiative of Central Government to allocate mineral assets through e-auctions, the Company participated in bids to secure long term security and availability of coal and successfully won mining rights for Brinda and Sasai Coal block in Jharkhand at a price of Rs. 1804 per MT. The operations in this coal mine are likely to commence in FY’18. Until commencement of new coal mine the Company would source coal requirements from domestic market and/or imports.

 

 

OPERATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS

 

The Steel business achieved a higher sales turnover of Rs.29966.800 Million in the current financial year against Rs.25283.600 Million in the previous year, up by 18.5%. The operating profit and margins however remained at Rs.4679.500 Million at 15.6% during the year against Rs.5045.900 Million. At 20.0% in the previous year. Further, there was an exceptional charge of Rs. 837.300 Million on account of additional levy @ Rs .295 per MT on production of coal from Kathautia coal mine since commencement of operations of coal mine to 31st March, 2015, and write downs of Rs. 164.300 Million on assets and investments made in de-allocated coal blocks.

 

Share of Steel business stood at 66.1% of the Company’s gross level of activity and 59.1% of reported net turnover in the current financial year. During FY’15 the export turnover of Steel business was Rs.2516.900 Million, which is 8.4% of its’ turnover, against Rs. 2977.900 Million in the previous year.

 

 

WIRE ROPES AND SPECIALTY PRODUCTS BUSINESS\

 

Despite subdued environment in domestic market, the Company was able to increase sales in wire rope segment in domestic market. Higher volume in domestic rope market enabled the Company to offset the decline in wire rope exports. Strong domestic performance, product mix enrichment and cost control measures enabled the Company to maintain margins despite pressure on topline.

 

Continuing the focus on product mix enrichment, Company’s UK subsidiary manufactured first reel of OCEANMAX in September 2014 which is a new product in the Company’s portfolio. This product is targeted to cater to a segment where Company’s presence was missing in past.

 

Global markets provided an exceptional challenge in the year because of steep drop in oil prices, which affected the demand; and sharp devaluation of currency in many geographies, which affected the price. To mitigate the subdued demand in oil and offshore segment, the Company plans to increase focus in other industry segments and geographies less affected by currency devaluation.

 

At global level, the WWR business has achieved during FY’15 gross production of Wire Ropes and Conveyor Cords of 97,282 MT against 103,827 MT. The gross production of Strands, Wires and Bright Bars was 164,400 in FY’ 15 against 161,363 MT in FY’ 14. Production of total Value Added Products was down by 1.3% in FY’15 compared to that in the previous financial year.

 

On standalone basis, the Wire and Wire Ropes business maintained turnover of Rs.15151.400 Million in the current financial year against Rs.15192.900 Million in previous year. However, the operating profit and margin were higher, Rs.2004.400 Million at 13.2% during the year against Rs.1935.900 Million at 12.7% in previous year.

 

Share of Wire and Wire Rope business stood at 33.4% of the Company’s gross level of activity and 40.5% of reported net turnover in the current financial year on standalone basis.

 

 

FOCUS AREAS AND NEW INITIATIVES

 

Main focus of the Company in current business environment would be in:

 

·         Strengthening presence in domestic market

·         Exploring growth opportunities in geographies where Company’s presence is currently limited

·         Continue the focus on cost control initiatives

·         Product mix enrichment on a continual basis and providing better services to customers

NOTES:

 

1)     Pursuant to the requirement under Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013 vide Notification dated 29th August, 2014, the Company, based on the external technical advice, identified components (significant parts) of the main asset having different useful lives as compared to the main asset and consequently revised the estimated useful lives of certain Plant and Machinery and Electrical Installation with effect from 1st April, 2015. Accordingly, the depreciation charge for the quarter and half year ended 30th September, 2015 is lower by Rs. 421.000 Million compared to the corresponding previous periods with corresponding impact on the loss from ordinary activities of the Company for respective periods.

 

2)     During the period, the performance of the Company has been adversely affected, inter alia, due to shut down of Blast Furnaces at Steel Plant for 23 days, depressed market conditions and procurement of coal from outside agencies to meet its requirement for Steel Business, pursuant to de-allocation of the Company's Kathautia and Lohari coal blocks in the state of Jharkhand in the previous year.

 

3)     Further, lower depreciation charge has led to reduction in valuation of closing Inventories as compared to previous year and consequential incremental charge by way of "Change in inventories of finished goods, work-in-progress, stock-in-trade and scrap" [Sl. No. 2(c)] with adverse impact on the results for the quarter and half year ended 30th September, 2015.

 

4)     Tax expense comprises Deferred Tax and reversal of MAT Credit Entitlement.

 

5)     The above results, after review by the audit committee, have been approved and taken on record by the Board of Directors at its meeting held on 4th November, 2015.

 

6)     The Auditors of the Company have carried out a 'Limited Review' of the aforesaid financial results for the period ended 30th September, 2015 in terms of Clause 41 of the Listing Agreement with Stock Exchanges.
