Comments :

Subject was incorporated in the year 1969 having satisfactory track record.

 

For the financial year 2017, the company has achieved decent growth in its revenue as compared to its previous year along with fair profit margin during the year.

 

Rating takes into consideration, the healthy financial risk profile marked by adequate net worth base and comfortable debt coverage indicators.

 

Rating continue to derive strength from its long and established track record of its business operations backed by its well experienced promoters in the micronutrient industry, diversified product portfolio and wide spread of distribution network.

 

The company is listed on BSE and NSE and the price quoted at BSE is held at 205.20 against its face value of INR 10.

 

Further as per quarterly results (Unaudited) till December 2017, the company has achieved net revenue of INR 823.670 million and has clocked a net profit margin of 8.09%.

 

However, these rating strengths gets partially offset by susceptibility of the company’s profitability to volatility in raw material prices, exposure to foreign exchange fluctuation risk and intensely competitive nature of industry.

 

Payments seems to be usually correct.

 

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

CORPORATE INFORMATION

 

Subject the Company was incorporated at Mumbai in 1969 for manufacturing of small range of mineral feed additives for animals and birds and then diversified into mineral additives for the agriculture use and currently is into business of manufacturing micronutrients and other nutritional products for plants and animals.

In January, 2007 the Company incorporated Aries Agro Equipments Private Limited as a Wholly Owned Subsidiary for carrying business in all type of farm equipments, machinery etc.

During the year, the Earnings before Interest, Depreciation and Tax was 18.02 % of Net Sales compared to 15.45 % of Net Sales in the previous year. The Total Revenue (excluding Other Income) for the year net of discount / rebates was INR 2296.473 Million as against INR 2128.346 Million in the previous year. Profit after tax for the year was 5.16% of Net Sales compared to 3.01% of Net Sales in the previous year.

 


 

FINANCIAL REVIEW

 

The profitability from operations in India improved due to cost management and improved operation efficiency. However, during the second half of the year additional discounts were passed on to improve cash dlow post demonetization. It was felt prudent to do so since there was limited cash flow available in the market and collecting funds at this time was difficult without such additional costs. Demand in the southern markets especially Tamil Nadu was lower than expected.

 

With the collective support of staff and Aries customers the. Company was able to improve its revenue from Indian operations by 18.15 percentage with an increase in profitability with 85.15% in comparison with the previous year.

 

The global operations were closed and reinstallation with fresh identical machinery in India. Therefore, revenue from overseas were lower and a one time loss on sale of machinery of the consolidated operations.

 

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

OVERVIEW

 

OVERVIEW OF INDUSTRY:

The Company is part of the growing specialty plant nutrition industry which is a niche sector within the crop nutrition segment of agricultural inputs. During the year under review the monsoons recorded All India average of 97% of the LPA (Long Period Average). The Kharif rainfall was as per expectation. However, the winter rains especially in South India were extremely deficient. AS a result, the second half performance was comparatively lower than expected. Some states, especially Tamil Nadu recorded severe drought conditions. The second half was also affected by demonetization which restricted sales and collections for almost three months before conditions improved towards the end of the fourth quarter. Stress on the rural economy post demonetization required the Company to provide extra schemes to ensure continued funds inflow during the second half of the year. This had impact on second half margins. This situation was faced by almost all companies in the rural sector and the impact was fairly significant during Q3 and slightly less significant in Q4.

 

OUTLOOK:

2017 monsoons are expected to be 98% of normal and the Company is hopeful that it will achieve good growth in revenues and profitability. A series of dealers meetings and booking bazaars were conducted during April 2017 at Amritsar, Puri, Goa and Kakdwip. The orders with payment instruments totaling to INR 3058.800 Million arein hand with bookings made by 1250 number of dealers. Following from the experience of the previous financial year, the company is planning inventories and production based on this order book and conversion of bookings into actual sales is estimated as 75% similar to the previous Financial Year. The major focus area includes:

 

- Increase penetration in Acquaculture. Aqua culture is a new market and is a non monsoon dependent sector. During the year under review we had sales of around 12 Crores in Andhra Pradesh, West Bengal and Chhattisgarh in this sector. We are looking forward to a wider penetration this year. It is noteworthy that existing agri products are being positioned for aquaculture

 

- Increase in exports in Asian Region after receiving Export License

 

- Launch slow release granules for some existing soil applied products.

 

The Company is introducing 7 new products in the plant nutrition sector and this will be launched in August and October 2017 which will support growth in the topline and bottom line.
