Global Industry Overview:-

Carbon Black is well recognized to be the best reinforcing material in rubber compounds. The tyre industry

consumes about 80% of the total carbon black production around the world. As per estimates about nine million

metric tons of Carbon Black are manufactured annually worldwide.

Key Points:-

Global demand expected to rise by about 4.30% through 2013

Source:- SKP Research

Special Blacks expected to be a key item in the future

The market for special blacks is expected to grow by 5.90% every year to 1.20 million metric tons which at

present they constitute about 10% of the overall global carbon black market on a tonnage basis. This segment,

apart from offering higher margins provides the suppliers with a shield against the cyclic nature of the tyre and

motor vehicles industries. Apart from the regular users like plastics, inks and paint industry, other users as

conductive fillers are expected to hold out good growth prospects till 2013 and thereafter.

Asia/Pacific region to be the key players

Source:- SKP Research

• A healthy global rubber market is

expected to help raise the demand for

world carbon black by 4.30% every year

to 2013 to about 11.60 million metric

tons .

• Majority of carbon black find use as a

reinforcement material in vulcanized

rubber goods, including over 60% in

motor vehicles tyres alone.

• It is estimated that the demand for

carbon black from the tyre industry is

expected to increase from 3.70% every

year to 6.90 million metric tons through

2013. The non tyre carbon black market

is estimated to increase by 4.80% every

year to 3.60 million metric tons to 2013.

Demand to be led by the growth in the tyre industry Source:-Company

Majority of the major tyre manufactures have embarked on a massive investment drive to ramp up production to

meet the demand of the ever growing automobile industry. 40% of the tyre demand are led by the OEM segment

and 60% in the Replacement segment. Apart from OEM, the replacement demand for tyres are also showing signs

of momentum. A replacement cycle for passenger cars is normally 3-4 years while that of commercial vehicles is

of 1-2 years. The industry produced about 97 million tyres in various segments in FY10 compared to 82 million

tyres produced in FY09.

Source:- Company

About 65% of the carbon black manufactured in the

country are consumed by the tyre industry, 15% by the

rubber industry and the rest 20% are utilized by ink,

plastics and paint manufacturing industries

• This region, with the exclusion of Japan is expected to be the key player upto 2013. This is due to the fact that the

markets of China and India look lucrative due to the rapid expansion in their respective motor vehicles and tyre

industries on the back of a robust economic growth. Both these countries combined together posted the largest

increase in carbon black capacity from 2003 to 2008 and is expected to keep up the same momentum till 2013.

• The growth in US, Japan and other European nations is expected to remain muted during this time period on a

weaker economic recovery, post 2008 crisis. The situation in US presents a grim picture where capacity utilization

fell below 70% resulting in a number of carbon black plants being shutdown.

• In 1998, North America and Western Europe combined together produced 48% of the world’s carbon black and

is expected to account for only 23% of it by 2013. On the other hand the Asia/Pacific region which produced 36%

of the world’s carbon black in 1998, stands to account for about 57% of the world production in 2013.

India emerging to be a major hub for automobile manufacturers

Major international car makers as Hyundai, Toyota, Nissan have set up shops in the country to ride the ever

increasing auto demand in the country in the passenger cars segment. Apart from this, a rise in industrial activity,

strong rural demand and availability of credit at attractive rates will drive up the demand for commercial vehicles

also.

Other segments also hold out a good promise

As mentioned before, apart from the tyre industry, ink, plastics and the paint manufacturing industry also hold

out a good promise for growth in the future.

• Ink- The Indian Printing Ink Industry is currently valued at about Rs 1800 crore- Rs 2000 crore with an

average growth rate of about 12%-15% annually. In terms of tonnage of ink manufactured in India, it is

estimated to be about 110 million tons annually.

• Plastics- The historical growth of the Indian plastic industry has been quite impressive at about 12%-14%

annually. The consumption level which at present is about 8 million tons is expected to reach a projected

level of 12 million tons by 2012.

• Paints- The phenomenal growth of the housing sector in India, rapid urbanization along with the

availability of easy to secure housing loans have been the prime drivers of the decorative paints industry

which comprises about 70% of $2 billion paint industry in India. Industrial paints add up to 30% of the

revenues of the industry. The size of the Indian Paint Industry is about 940 million liters. The organized

sector comprises about 54% of the total volume and 65% of the value. In the last 10 years, the industry

has shown a CAGR growth of about 10%-12% annually.

• Rubber- The production of rubber in the country varies between 7-8 Lakh tons annually amounting to

about Rs 4000 crore. It is estimated that about 6000 rubber manufacturing units are present comprising

of large, medium and small scale industry. The industry contributes about Rs 50 billion to the National

Exchequer in the form of various taxes. The per capital consumption of rubber in the country is only

about 800 grams compared to 12 to 14 kilos in Japan, USA and Europe. Thus, the country is still far from

attaining saturation levels and hence provides the industry with tremendous growth prospects in the

times of come.

• The auto industry in India is one of the largest

in the world. It produces about 11 million 2

and 4 wheeled vehicles and exports about 1.50

million vehicles every year.

• By 2050 the country is expected to top the

world in car volumes with approximately 611

million vehicles on the roads. This in turn is

expected to drive the tyre industry forward

thus paving the way for the company to grow

at a CAGR growth of about 10%-12% anually.

• Since the company holds a dominant position

in the carbon black market, it is expected to

gain significantly with the growth in the

automobile segment and subsequently an

increase in the demand for tyres.

• The company’s 4 plants are strategically

located to cater to the tyre demands of the

respective regions, thereby reducing the

cost of freight.

• It is also on the look out to buy further land

to set up a new carbon black facility in

southern India to cater to the upcoming auto

hub. The company is in talks with the

governments of Tamil Nadu and Andhra

Pradesh for this and the deal is expected to

be finalized soon.

Vietnam venture to enhance the fortunes of the company

Exports to be stronger in the times to come Source:- SKP Research

Currently the exports constitute about 16%-17% of the top line growth. Now with the various capacity expansions

in place and the foray into Vietnam the exports are likely to go up to 20%-22% of the total sales of the company.

Power segment to increase revenues and improve margins

At present about 5% of the revenues accrue from the sale of power. With the increase in the power generation

capacity from 60.5 MW to 76 MW by Sep 2011, the share of revenues from power sale is expected to increase to

6%-7% over the next 2 years. At present about 15%-20% of the power produced are used for their own captive

consumption and about 35%-40% of it is sold to the grid. The cost incurred to generate power is about 70p/unit

while it can be sold to the grid at about Rs2-3/unit. In the absence of raw material cost the power business has

got EBIDTA margins of about 90%.

Power Projects lead to carbon credits

The Palej power plant of the company has been registered with UNCDM(Clean Development Mechanism) board

and have subsequently sold the same and added to the topline. The company plans to register other power plants

too with UNCDM, but the process is a lengthy one and can take at least a couple of years. However, the Palej

power plant is expected to generate carbon credits till FY15.

Backward integration in the form of Coal Tar Distillation

Carbon Black Feed stock is the main raw materials used by the company at present which has to be imported. The

price of these is directly linked to the international crude oil prices. An increase in those can put some severe

pressure on the operating margins of the company. To mitigate the risk the company plans to start using coal tar

in future as its raw material. Coal Tar is a by product generated through the processing of coal into coke for use in

steel manufacturing. The process of putting the plans into action has started and this can take effect in another 2-

3 years. The company plans to go into long term contracts with domestic steel manufacturers in this regard.

The country is known to be the fourth largest producer of

rubber but unfortunately does not have a single carbon

black facility. All the demands are met through imports. It

is estimated that the current demand for carbon black ,

which at present stands around 60,000 MT is expected to

reach at least 100,000 MT in two years time. Apart from

the expansion of local tyre companies many foreign

players are also looking to set up shop there. The company

presently has a 40% market share in Vietnam.

Financial Performance

FY11 and FY12 to post strong top line growth

Source:- Company, SKP Research

FY 08-09 was a tough year for the company. A volatility in the price of crude oil lead to an increase in the price of

its main raw material that is Carbon Black Feed Stock(CBFS) and its average cost per MT was about Rs 24000(At

present about Rs19500). To offset the increase the company increased the prices of its product to about Rs 56000

per MT.(At present around Rs 51000)

Bottom line to come under pressure in FY11 before posting a growth again in FY12.

Source:- Company, SKP Research

Improvement in capacity utilization

With the timely commissioning of its carbon black projects under execution, and with a production to dispatch

ratio of more than 99% all through the last 5-6 financial years, the capacity utilization is expected to improve from

the current level of an average of 72%-75% to about 85% by the end of FY12.

• With the automobile sector showing a

strong growth on a YoY basis and the

subsequent increase in the demand for

tyres we expect the company to post a

healthy top line till FY12.

• Though the increase in the raw material

prices is going to put pressure on the

margins, yet we believe that the

company can be in a position to increase

the price of its product, given the fact

that it is the number one player in the

Indian market and having its customer

base among the renowned tyre makers.

• The increase in revenues from the

power business too shall be aiding the

growth in the top line.

• With the prices of the raw material CBFS

increasing, the bottom line is expected to

report a de growth for the current financial

year before moving up again in FY12.

• The main raw material of the company is

Carbon Black Feed stock(CBFS), which is

imported from the USA on a quarterly contract

basis and its cost is linked to the price of

international crude oil prices, at present which

is hovering around the $80 a barrel mark.

• With the commissioning of its Mundra plant

and improvement in capacity utilization, the

company shall post a better performance in

FY12.

Risks and Concerns

Highly dependent on the performance of the tyre industry

The company derives its maximum revenues from the tyre industry which in turn is dependent on the fortunes of

the auto sector. Any adverse happening in the auto industry is going to have a negative effect on the company. It

had faced a similar situation in FY09 due to the effect of the global financial crisis.

Volatility in the prices of its raw materials

Carbon Black Feed Stock(CBFS), the main raw material of the company is imported from the USA and is

dependent on the prices of international oil prices. An increase in that is going to put pressure on the margins of

the company. To mitigate this risk, the company has initiated the process of replacing CBFS with coal tar pitch

which is a byproduct from the steel manufacturing process. It has already started discussions with some major

steel manufacturers in this regard. However, it shall take another 2 years time to actually put that into practice.

Delay in project execution will increase cost and hamper earnings

The company is at present executing a 50000MT carbon black facility in Mundra along with a 10MW power

project and a 8MW power facility in Kochi. A delay in executing these projects could affect company’s earnings.

The Vietnam project also has not yet achieved financial closure. Any delay in that is also going to be prove

detrimental to the company.

Threat of cheap imports

Though an anti dumping duty is in place, yet a threat of cheap imports always remain high which may prove

detrimental to the interest of the company.

Due to the ongoing capacity expansion

plans the RONW and ROCE shall decline in

FY11, after which they are expected to

stabilize in FY12.

Valuations and Outlook

We have valued the company by applying the Discounted Cash Flow method by taking a WACC of 12.45% from

FY11E to FY15E and a terminal growth rate of 2% thereafter and have arrived at a fair value price of Rs 254

implying a upside of 40% from current levels to be achieved in 15 months time. However, we have not factored

in the Vietnam Project as of now, since it is in a preliminary stage and yet to achieve financial closure.

• We firmly believe that the company is going to reap the benefits of the automobile growth story as

depicted in the YoY sales increases of all the auto majors which includes two wheelers, four wheelers and

commercial vehicles.

• Being the No1 choice of all the major tyre manufacturers of the country as well as some renowned ones

outside, it is going to put up a good performance in the times to come. This shall further be aided by the

timely and successful commissioning of the projects under implementation.

• The Vietnam project is expected to be completed fully by the end of FY14 and this shall be the focal point

of supplying its products to the South East Asian region thereby decreasing the shipping and

transportation costs of the company which till now is being sent from India.

• The company is expected to sell all its surplus power after meeting all its own requirements which till now

is just about 20%-25% of the total power generated.

• Volatility of raw materials mainly the CBFS remains a key concern of dragging the margins down.

However, the company has already started to look at using coal tar pitch instead and is in talks with some

major steel producers. Though things are still on paper, yet it is expected to start taking effect slowly

after 2 years time. This shall reduce the company’s dependency on CBFS gradually.

• FY13 to FY15 shall be the consolidation phase for the company. On the domestic side, it is expected to

achieve 100% capacity utilization and the Vietnam project is also expected to become operational by

then.

• New capacity expansions in the form of a new carbon black facility in South India along with

diversification into carbon chemicals manufacturing are in the pipeline.
