MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS:

 

GLOBAL ECONOMY:

 

According to the World Economic Outlook (WEO) Report published by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) in April 2014, the global economy grew by 3% in CY2013, supported by encouraging performance of the US economy. However, global growth was weighed down by modest growth in the Euro Zone, Japan and Emerging Market and Developing Economies.

 

 We are now seeing a new pattern in the performance of global economies’ between 2009 and 2012, the emerging market and developing economies had been spearheading global recovery as the advanced economies lurched from one crisis to another. Now the scenario is changing, with the advanced world, led by the US, contributing around 20% of global economic growth.

 

China’s growth is expected to be around 7.5% in 2014, as the political leadership is ensuring a gradual transition to a more sustainable growth path. Such a situation will pave the way for a period of more balanced global growth.

 

Besides, with India having resoundingly voted for political stability and better governance, the country’s around 2-trillion dollar economy is also likely to pick up pace and contribute significantly towards global recovery.

 

 

INDIAN ECONOMY:

 

A few years ago, India’s impressive growth rates were the envy of the world. As Asia’s second largest economy moved forward, the country created a perception of being a citadel of energy and enterprise. However, spillover effects of lackluster global growth and continuous policy paralysis in the government has since arrested India’s economic surge.

 

Matters came to a head in the middle of 2013-14, with indications that the US Fed was withdrawing its Quantitative Easing programmer. This caused capital flight and significant rupee depreciation. India’s economic growth engine lost steam, and stubbornly high core inflation made matters worse.

 

The financial prowess of India Inc. deteriorated with a dramatic fall in infrastructure and corporate investments, with adverse implications on asset quality of banks and other financial institutions. In such a bleak external environment, job prospects dimmed and consumer demand weakened. This influenced the sales of different categories of automobiles.

 

The recovery of the monsoon in the season’s second half in 2012 and a good monsoon in 2013 provided some breathing room. It helped the agriculture sector recover with record productions in rice, wheat, pulses, oilseeds and cotton. However, the demand recovery in rural India was negated largely by industrial stagnation, a slump in service sector growth and a decline in government spending.

 

On the positive side, both current account deficit and foreign trade deficit narrowed significantly in the second half of 2013-14. In addition, policy measures to strengthen capital flows in September and October 2013 helped reduce external vulnerabilities. The Indian currency has stabilized at the time of writing, inflation is under better control and exports have shown some recovery.

 

 

OUTLOOK:

 

The elections have delivered a clear mandate for decisive governance and development. 2014 could be a momentous year for India, given the new energy and political will to drive economic reforms. The new leadership has shown a resolve to implement radical policies to bring the economy back on track. If this resolve translates into action, three developments could take place. Stalled projects could see quick execution. Better-directed subsidies could prune the fiscal deficit. Finally, strong leadership at the helm could make the administration more streamlined and responsive. Hopefully, these steps will quicken the pace of capital formation and improve productivity. Continued reforms and a stable monetary policy would bolster the country’s macroeconomic fundamentals and deliver a powerful message of societal and economic dynamism to the world.

 

 

TWO-WHEELER INDUSTRY:

 

During FY 2013-14, the two-wheeler industry grew marginally by 7.1%, from 16.900 millions units sold compared to 15.800 millions units in FY 2012-13. In a similar pattern, the motorcycle volumes—which account for a major industry proportion — grew by 4.3% from 11.950 millions units in FY 2012-13 to 12.500 millions units in FY 2013-14, Continuing its growth path, the scooter category was the star industry performer with 22.1% growth in sales, from 3.070 millions units in FY 2012-13 to 3.750 millions units in FY 2013-14. Like in the previous years, sales of moped de-grew by 7.8% from 0.790 millions units in 2012-13 to 0.730 millions units in 2013-14.

 

 

EXPORTS:

 

Reversing the trend of the previous fiscal, the export sales of the entire two-wheeler industry grew by 6.5% to 1.900 millions units. Hero MotoCorp, with sales of over 130,763units, accounted for 6% of motorcycle exports from India. This share is likely to go up significantly in the coming years.

 

TWO-WHEELER: SEGMENTAL REVIEW:

 

The two-wheeler industry has three distinct segments, based on income and lifestyle classifications. In FY 2013-14, the deluxe category accounted for 66% of sales. It was followed by the entry segment (18% of sales) and the premium category (16% of sales). The deluxe segment grew by 5.4% with volumes of 6.800 millions units. Hero Moto Corp continued to have a major share of this segment with sales of 4.200 millions units and a segment share of 61%, whereas the nearest competitor managed a 19.4% segment share.  However, the entry segment which accounted for 1.800 millions units, declined by 2.6%. Hero Moto Corp’s sales in the entry segment grew by 3.4% to 1.060 millions units, resulting in a segment share of 56.8%.  The sales in the industry’s premium segment increased significantly by 7.1% to 1.600 millions units. However, Hero Moto Corp’s performance was not encouraging in this segment. Nevertheless, the Company’s main segment continued with their strong showing, and Splendor, Passion Pro and HF Deluxe continued to feature among the top six motorcycle brands sold in India.  The two top-selling brands (Pleasure and Maestro), in the scooter category continued to perform strongly. Volumes increased to 2.900 millions units from 2.600 millions units. In relative terms, Hero Moto Corp’s sales grew by 13.6% and accounted for 21.4% of the two-wheeler market.

 

 

OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE:

 

In FY 2013-14, Hero Moto Corp sold 6.200 millions units compared to 6.070 millions units in the previous year. In the motorcycle segment, Hero Moto Corp with sales of 5.500 millions units, continued to lead the domestic market with 44.4% market share. Sales in the domestic motorcycle market remained flat at 10.480 millions units, compared to 10.080 millions units in the previous year. In the Indian market, Hero Moto Corp captured 51.8% market share, with sales of 5.400 millions unit’s vis-à-vis sales of 5.300 millions units in FY 2012-13. Remarkably, the Company sold more units than the second, third, fourth and fifth placed motorcycle manufacturers in India taken together during the year.

PRESS RELEASE

 

NEWS:

 

HERO MOTO FALLS 4% AS PROMOTERS SELL 3.5% STAKE

 

Shares of Hero MotoCorp fell over 4 percent intraday on Wednesday as promoters have sold some stake in the company. Promoters of the two-wheeler manufacturer sold 3.5 percent or 71 lakh shares of their 40 percent stake in the company via multiple block deal today. The price band is at Rs 2664-2718 per share.

 

Promoters are likely to raise around USD 300 million via the stake sale. Barclays and Kotak Mahindra are bank book runners of the sale.

 

It had posted 11.11 percent rise in its net profit at Rs 5829.800 Millions for the quarter ended December 31, 2014. Net sales of the company, however, declined marginally to Rs 67925.100 Millions during the October-December period. During the quarter, the company's total sales stood at 1648548 units. The company had sold 558,982 units in January, down 0.4 percent from a year earlier period.

 

But, why are Hero Moto promoters selling.

 

Here are three key reasons listed by Axis Cap:

 

1) At the time when Honda's 26 percent stake was bought, it was a very complex structured deal between Hero and private equity players who were assured some fixed internal rate of return (IRR). This sale could be part of that complex deal. Also at the time, promoters got additional stake at under Rs 1000 so selling at around Rs 2700 makes a handsome profit.  

 

2) Hero group might have ambitions in other businesses and this is the easiest investment for them to monetise.   3) Just like HCLTech promoters recently, Brij Munjal make have wanted to increase his philanthropic activities at this age. At 09:33 hrs Hero Motocorp was quoting at Rs 2,695.00, down Rs 111.25, or 3.96 percent on the BSE. 

 

 

HERO MOTOCORP CLOCKS PAT OF RS. 5830.000 MILLIONS AND TURNOVER OF RS 68390.000 MILLIONS FOR Q3 FY’15

 

New Delhi, February 3rd, 2015:

 

  • Financial Results: Q3 (October-December), FY’15
  • Total sales for the quarter stands at 1648548 units
  • Total turnover (Net sales and other operating income) Rs 68390.000 Millions
  • Profit before Tax (PBT) stands at Rs. 8290.000 Millions
  • Net Profit after Tax (PAT) stands at Rs 5830.000 Millions
  • EBIDTA margin for the quarter at 12.02 percent

 

 

“As always, it was yet another action-packed quarter for us. With the commissioning of our new platinum-class manufacturing facility – the Garden Factory – and the Global Parts Centre (GPC) at Neemrana in Rajasthan, they pioneered a new era of harmony between nature and cutting-edge technology. In terms of sales, we also posted a new benchmark by selling over a million units in just 37 days during the festive season. As part of our global expansion, Brand Hero made its debut in Colombia during the quarter, and immediately set a new benchmark in the country by becoming the first two-wheeler company to offer a four-year warranty on all products. By roping in iconic celebrity Tiger Woods as our global corporate partner, we have also intensified our brand building initiatives in global markets.

 

“They continue to make investments as we pass through a phase of global expansion, capacity enhancement and brand building and these added expenses have impacted our margins in the third quarter. We believe that these are investments which will yield the desired results in the long term as we relentlessly strive to consolidate our leadership. Going forward, we remain cautiously optimistic about the business climate. With crude prices hovering below the $50 mark, and commodity prices continuing to remain soft, a lot will also depend on the much-awaited budget to be presented by the central government later this month. While sentiments are already high with the central government expected to revive the economy, the other factors such as interest rates, retail inflation and the likely changes in global economy will also play a role in determining the industry growth in the coming quarters.”
