Comments :

Subject is a subsidiary of ‘BKC Enterprises Private Limited’, India and was incorporated on 08th October 2008. The company manufactures and markets whisky, rum, vodka, and brandy in India. Its flagship brand, Officer's Choice, is the largest-selling whisky brand by volume in the world.

 

The company also has other brands such as Officer's Choice Blue whisky, Officer's Choice Black whisky, Kyron, and Lord & Master Brandy, Officer's Choice brandy, Class 21 Vodka, and Jolly Roger rum.

 

For the financial year ended 2017, the company has achieved 12.19% growth in its revenue as compared to previous year revenue but has reported a low profit margin of 0.08%.

 

Ratings take into consideration the healthy financial profile of the company marked by adequate net worth base along with average debt balance sheet profile.

 

Rating also takes into consideration the company’s established track record of business operations on the back of well spared marketing and distribution channels along with established brand image ‘Officer's Choice’ in the segment. 

 

Rating also takes into account of strong financial and managerial support that company receives from its holding entity backed by its well experienced management team.

 

However, rating strength is partially offset as the company sells about 75% of its whisky products through the government regulated-corporation market and the remaining through distributors. Also, it has to annually renew its licence in each state. Any delay in renewal could result in a significant revenue loss. Also, any adverse change in state excise duties could put significant pressure on its EBITDA margin.

 

Payments seems to be regular and as per commitment. 

 

In view of aforesaid, the company can be considered for normal business dealings at usual trade terms and conditions.

STATE OF COMPANY`S AFFAIRS AND REVIEW OF OPERATIONS:

 

Over the last financial year, the company has logged sales of 33.2 million cases. In the past 3 years, ABD has grown at a CAGR of 10% which has leapfrogged ABD as India's 3rd largest spirits company and the largest domestic spirits company. The company now has a share of 10% of the IMFL industry.

 

Officer's Choice Whisky, our flagship brand, achieved sales of 23.42 million cases in FY'17. It is the undisputed market leader in 17 states in India with a 40% market share in the Regular whisky segment.

 

Officer's Choice Whisky continues to retain the tag of 'The Largest Selling Whisky Brand in the World' conferred by the International Wine and Spirits Magazine (IWSR). The brand has now added another feather in its cap "Reinventing Officer's Choice Whisky: Spoiled for Choice", a case study which traces the brand's rejuvenation from 2008 onwards, has made it to the case study list at the prestigious Harvard Business School.

 

Officer's Choice Blue touched sales of 7.8 million cases resulting in 13.1% market share in the Deluxe whisky segment.  The brand continues to gain consumer heart share with every passing year on the back of strong marketing campaigns and activations. The brand is the presenting sponsor for Mirchi Top 20 - a highly popular radio show with amplification across various media as well as on-ground activations.

 

The brand has, in keeping with the passions of its target consumers, associated with cricket and football over the past years. It has an association with the Indian Premier League (IPL) in the form of sponsorship tieups with Mumbai Indians and Delhi Daredevils. The brand is also the principal sponsor of 'Calcutta Football League (CFL)'.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS AND CHANGE IN NATURE OF BUSINESS:

 

The Company is engaged in the business of manufacturing and marketing of IMFL products. There has been no change in the business of the Company during the financial year ended 31st March, 2017.

 

FY-2017 continued to be a very challenging year for global economy and in particular for the spirits industry in India due to adverse external factors starting with declaration of prohibition in Bihar, change of route to market in Himachal and Punjab, State Government policies in Andhra Pradesh, sudden demonetization announced by the Central Government and Supreme Court judgement on removal of liquor outlets on state and national highways.

 

Despite the above, the Company has recorded satisfactory performance during the year with re venues of INR 20224.776 Million as compared to INR 18042.336 Million during the previous year. The total expenses during the year were INR 20175.200 Million as compared to INR 17094.500 Million during the previous year.

 

Consequently, the Company's profit before tax for the year was INR 41.320 Million as compared to the previous year's profit before tax of INR 813.289 Million. After providing for tax, profit after tax for the year was INR 16.631 Million as compared to INR 516.030 Million during the previous year.

 

The Company has set up India's largest and state of art integrated unit with a distillation and bottling under one roof with a capacity of 8,00,000 lakh cases per month in the State of Telangana, which is by far the single largest market in the Country. The license was converted into Letter of Intent during the year. By setting up this factory, the Company will have distinct cost advantage, especially on bottling charges. The Company will also be in a position to control the entire supply chain since the number of Contract Bottling Units will be reduced from the existing 8 to 1 in the new environment.

Pursuant to the Scheme of Amalgamation sanctioned by the Hon`ble National Company Law Tribunal, Mumbai Bench vide its order dated 5th April, 2017, Unokoti Bottling and Beverages Private Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary was amalgamated with the Company with effect from the Appointed Date viz., 1st April, 2016.

PRESS RELEASE

 

OFFICER’S CHOICE MAKER ALLIED BLENDERS REVIVES IPO PLAN, EYES YEAR-END LAUNCH

 

Allied Blenders and Distillers plans to use the capital from the IPO, which will involve a 10% stake sale initially with an issue of around INR 10000.000 Million, to trim debt

March, 07 2018

 

Bengaluru: Allied Blenders and Distillers Pvt. Ltd (ABD), India’s third largest liquor company, is reviving plans to go public and aims to launch its share offering by the end of 2018 at a rough valuation of around $1.8 billion, a top company executive said.

 

The company plans to use the capital from the initial public offering (IPO), which will involve a 10% stake sale initially with an issue of around INR 10000.000 Million, to trim debt and set up a malt spirit plant at its existing distillery in Telangana.

 

“We will definitely do it (the IPO) this year. Work is going on progressively but, of course, we have to keep a watch on the markets,” ABD’s executive vice-chairman Deepak Roy said. 

 

ABD has been planning an IPO for years. In August 2015, it had announced plans to go public over the following 18 months. In 2017, the company had planned to file its red herring prospectus well before the year ended and had mandated JM Financial and Credit Suisse to manage its IPO. JM Financial and Credit Suisse continue to advise ABD on this.

 

“We felt it prudent to wait because of market conditions, and because our business was impacted by the highway liquor sales ban and demonetisation and everything. Now, things are back to normal and bouncing back,” Roy said.

 

The liquor industry’s sales were hit in 2017 after the Supreme Court banned the sale of all alcohol near state and national highways leading to a significant, albeit temporary, closure in retail outlets.

 

And even in 2012, when Roy first spoke about the option of raising capital through an IPO, he stressed that ABD would take that route only when market conditions permitted it to get the valuation it deserves.

 

“They (ABD) will also not get too much more in terms of debt because they already have a sizeable amount. But it all depends on the market situation and the current financial performance of the company. I doubt their numbers will improve substantially. Large players like Pernod and Diageo get higher margins because of their mix, but ABD’s mix is hugely in favour of the regular segment so their earnings may not improve in a major way going forward,” said Sameer Deshmukh, senior analyst at Reliance Securities. 

 

ABD’s total debt right now stands at around Rs950 crore. Nearly 90% of its revenue comes from sales of its Officer’s Choice brand of whisky and brandy. Officer’s Choice whisky alone is a 33 million cases per year business, and is the world’s largest-selling whisky in volume terms. 

 

Still, ABD’s profitability is not as high as market leaders Diageo Plc-owned United Spirits Ltd (USL) and Pernod Ricard SA. The Officer’s Choice variants either operate in the regular or in the semi-premium price segments. But the higher profit margins come from the premium, super premium and luxury segments that USL and Pernod focus on. 

 

However, ABD has plans in place to change that. It launched a premium blended whisky brand called Sterling Reserve in West Bengal and Haryana. The company expects to spend around Rs40 crore each year over the next two-three years to establish Sterling Reserve, which Roy says has the potential to account for half of ABD’s total profits in just three years. 

 

ABD’s target is to capture 5% market share for Sterling Reserve this year in the premium blended whisky segment. ABD’s master distiller who created Sterling Reserve, Arun Barik, is also the man behind the creation of Officer’s Choice, and the Blender’s Pride and Royal Stag tipples (originally Seagram’s but now part of Pernod’s stable). 

 

The company even acquired a small Scottish distillery called Jardine Crescent to give Sterling Reserve a heritage and a home. But Reliance Securities’ Deshmukh says it will not be an easy segment to crack. 

 

“Consumers are very brand loyal when it comes to liquor and cigarettes so it is that much more difficult to establish a new brand. And the current market leaders in the premium segment will be very protective about their share in the premium space because that is their key strategy,” Deshmukh said.
