Hester Bio - Notes from the Annual Report - 2016
• Cumulative production capacity of 6 bn doses once the Nepal capacity goes online
• 2015-16 performance was achieved despite a 6-month trough in India's poultry sector that affected the sector for 3 quarters. The trough was the result of high feed cost and low realization of poultry output of meat and eggs. This resulted in a lower replacement of chicks.
• Started trial production of two batches in its Nepal plant and submitted these to regulatory authorities in 2 African countries
• HBS has decided to make a strategic shift to health products over dependence on poultry products
• Focus on exports to de-risk company from exclusively depending on domestic market
• Poultry Vaccines Segment: Introduced two Poultry Vaccines namely the Salmonella Live Vaccine and the Inclusion Body Hepatitis Vaccine
• Large Animal Vaccines: started manufacturing and marketing of large animal vaccines. Currently, manufactures PPR and goat pox vaccine. The Indian plant at Mehsana produces the PPR Live vaccine strain meant for India (sungri strain); the Nigerian strain will be made in the Nepal plant for export markets
• Brucella abortus S19 vaccine will be commercialized this year
• Large Animal health Products Segment: Comprises of medicinal products, feed additives & disinfectants. HBS does not manufacture products themselves. The outlook for growth is robust and can outperform the other divisions in the near future.

Getting Back to Basics - Presentaion at Investment Meet
We had the third meeting of your investment forum today. The venue was at Hotel Lindsay, bang opposite New Market. Thanks to Raghav for being gracious enough to arrange for the venue.
Friday 16 September 2016
HDFC Bank is the next HDFC Bank!!
FM, Arun Jaitley has earmarked Rs 700 billion (USD 10.5 billion) in bank capital injections in the four years to March 2019.
Ratings agency Fitch estimates, however, that USD90 billion in capital will be needed for Indian banks to meet Basel III banking rules due to be fully implemented by March 2019. Fitch says that 11 Indian banks may fail to meet those norms.
With the finance minister spelling out compulsions in providing additional capital for the PSU banks, it is a matter of time that we say consolidation and increased transition from public sector to private sector banks and NBFCs.
This provides a very large opportunity for organizations which are well capitalized and are diversified into multiple lending lines. I continue to believe businesses like HDFC Bank, Kotak Mahindra Bank, ICICI Bank, Bajaj Finance and others would do well over an extended period of time.

Century Ply - Notes from Annual Report 2016
Centuryply is among India’s largest interior infrastructure product manufacturers. The Company offers plywood, laminates, veneers, MDF, blockboards, doors, fibre cement boards and particle boards. It is also engaged in the logistics business through the management of a container freight station (India’s first privately owned CFS at the Kolkata Port).
Another unit in Laos is being commissioned. 5000 retail outlets added in 2015-16.
Launched new age products– Zykron and Starke (Wood Polymer Composite and Cement Fibre Boards). CPL expects to carve a 10% market share of the country’s B1,000 cr fibre cement boards market by 2020
Set up a particle board unit at Chennai, commissioning in June 2016, to capitalise on the fact that there are no similar units in the city
Commenced the construction of MDF unit at Hoshiarpur (Punjab). Following the commissioning of this unit, prlanned for July 2017, CPL will possess a capacity to manufacture 198,000 cubic metres per annum, graduating it to one of the largest in the country.
Grew the laminates business by around 15% on the back of a strong catalogue and distribution network.
Plywood capacity continues at 210,000 cubic meters
Laminate capacity continues at 4.8 million sheets p.a. Conventionally, new laminates would be introduced every second year; Centuryply revolutionised the space with the introduction of four catalogues a year.
The co did not reduce prices even though the competition did amidst sluggish demand. CPL maintained EBIDTA margins at 17%.
Raw material costs as a proportion of revenues declined from 53% to 38% in the three years ending 2015-16.
Working capital cycle reduced from 88 days to 70 days.
Container Freight Station at the Kolkata Port contributed only 5% to revenues in 2015-16, the corresponding EBIDTA margin was 46%.
Industry structure and developments
Wood panel products - The Indian wood panel market is valued at 28,500 crore. Plywood has a share of 63% (18,000 crore).
Plywood - India’s plywood industry is likely to reach a market value of 479.7 billion by 2019. This growth in the plywood market is expected to be led by a surge in the growth of commercial and domestic developments.
The MDF market is estimated to be worth ~35 billion in India and has grown at a CAGR of ~5-8% over the last five years. The Central Government’s decision to withhold fresh licenses for the manufacture of plywood has widened the gap between demand and supply. This is a positive development for the MDF industry and will increase the use of engineered panel products.
