ECONOMIC ANALYSIS

The Textile industry contributes around 14% to India’s Industrial Production, 4% to the GDP and 17% to the country’s export earnings. It provides direct employment to around 35 million people, which is second only to agriculture. Fabric production has risen to around 61000 million sq meters in 2011 from around 56000 million sq meters in 2007. India has the potential to increase its textile and apparel share in world trade from the current 4. 5% to about 8%, reaching $80 billion in value by 2020. The country’s geographical location is well suited for trade purposes and cheap labor and raw material also make it a prime target for foreign investment. Major apparel and designer brands are setting up shop in India thus, further enhancing the growth of the industry.

ANALYSIS OF OPERATIONS

VALUE CHAIN OF TEXTILE COMPANIES

OPERATIONS – ARVIND MILLS

Arvind Mills Ltd is one of the largest denim manufacturers in the world. It has set up its supply chain build on the push system. Arvind mills, typically, manufactures denim shorts based on every month’s forecast to store at various warehouses. As the company sends its products to ware-houses, actual selling takes place on an on-going basis with subsequent replacement of sold sorts. Push system is basically make-to-stock environment.

Push form of supply chains serve to similar products with stable demands. In this kind of supply chain, the decisions for production as well as distribution are based on long-term forecasts, as demand is not fluctuating. During 1950 to 1970, push supply chains were specific to clothing industry when they had vertical organization structures and optimized activities focused on functions as companies were manufacturing oriented in a demand surplus environment of mass-products.

The push strategy worked for Arvind mills for years but as the market demand kept on become more random and unstable, it became difficult for Arvind mills to follow it. One of the issues with push-based supply chain is that it creates excessive inventory (cycle stock and work-in-process) by the time it fulfils the changing demand pattern. Also, as long-term forecast plays a vital role, it is not easy to provide supply for variable demand. Push supply chain also includes larger production batches, incompatible for catering demand of short quantity.

Arvind mills had a huge variety of customers to serve and also there was a level of commitment they always wanted to maintain. To service these discerning customers, Arvind mills required a world class Supply Chain Management system. Ultimately they relied on SAP to implement ERP package. The implementation took place and was complete in 7 months. As a result the supply chain was strengthened along with the empowering of customer order execution. There was a substantial improvement in the planning for raw materials as well as in work-in-progress goods. Arvind mills got its processes standardized and a major improvement was there in the performance in the supply chain. The supply network finally connects the customer touch points through over 275 standalone brand stores across the country and more than 975 counters selling multi brand retail outlets an key accounts across India.

One more interesting characteristic of the supply chain is the deep connect Arvind Mills is aiming. The company is making an effort to provide shirts at affordable rates at grocery stores and petrol pumps. One of the reasons for doing this is increase the disposable income in rural areas. It has also started selling shirt bits instead of multi meter long rolls which once dominated the retail shelves.

QUANTITATIVE ANALYSIS

Z SCORE

The Z-score, also known as the Altman Z-score, was developed in the 1960’s by NYU professor Edward Altman. Altman’s primary improvement over prior methods was to apply discriminant analysis which simultaneously took into account multiple variables to ascertain financial strength. Altman used statistical analysis to determine which financial ratios were the best predictors of a company’s vulnerability to bankruptcy. He then put together a model that optimized the predictive value of those ratios. The result is one nice, neat number that allows forecasting a variety of parameters, thus allowing better prediction.

Over time, the Z-score has proved to be one of the most reliable predictors of bankruptcy. In a series of tests covering 316 distressed companies from three time periods between 1969 and 1999, Altman and his Z-score were between 82% and 94% accurate in predicting future bankruptcies.

In general, the lower a company’s Z-score, the higher the chance of bankruptcy.

Steps to calculate Z score

The first step in calculating Z score of a company is to identify seven items that are listed in the financial statements-Balance Sheet and Income statement of the company.

The seven items are:

Balance Sheet

Income Statement

1)Working Capital

2)Total Assets

3)Total Liabilities

4)Market Value of Equity

5)Sales

6)Earnings before Interest and Taxes(EBIT)

7)Retained Earnings

These seven items are used to calculate five ratios as below:

Ratios

A Working Capital/Total Assets

B Retained Earnings/Total Assets

C Earnings before Interest and Tax/Total Assets

D Market Value of Equity/Total Liabilities

E Sales/Total Assets

The last step is to calculate the Z score using the below formula:

Z-score = 1. 2*(A) + 1. 4*(B) + 3. 3*(C) + 0. 6*(D) + 1. 0*(E)

In general the Z score can be interpreted as follows:

Z score below 1. 81-The Company is in trouble and could be headed towards bankruptcy

Z score between 1. 81 and 2. 99-The Company is showing warning signs of heading towards trouble

Z score above 2. 99-The Company is doing well and is in good shape.

ANALYSIS OF Z SCORE

The Z score for the past five years have been calculated for Bombay Dyeing and Arvind Mills using the Balance sheet and Income statement (Refer Appendix- Z Score Analysis).

BOMBAY DYEING

As can be seen from the graph above, the Z score for Bombay Dyeing has been consistently improving from FY2008 onwards. Till FY2010 the Z score was below 1. 81 indicating big trouble for the company. In FY2011 and FY2012, the Z score is greater than 2. 99 indicating that the company is in good shape now.

From the common size balance sheet of Bombay Dyeing (Refer Appendix- Balance sheet Analysis)* it is seen that the debt to Equity ratio has decreased significantly in FY2012 compared to the previous years. The debt was reduced from 1800 crores to 1200 crores in FY2011. The equity for FY2012 and FY2011 is 68. 7% and 22. 03 % respectively of the total assets which is much higher than what it was in the previous years. This is due to the fact that the reserves and surplus of the company have increased to 1751. 09 crores in FY2012 from 170crores and 282 crores in the previous years.

Bombay Dyeing had also reported 75 per cent jump in the fourth quarter net profit in financial year FY2011, mainly due to a turnaround in the polyester and textile business. The change in top management with Jeh Wadia taking over as CEO in 2011 could also be one of the factors for Bombay Dyeing doing well now.

ARVIND MILLS

Z-score for Arvind Mills has been hovering between 3 and 1. 8 for the past 5 years. This is the Grey zone, which means company is showing signs of bankruptcy. Though improved marginally over the last few years, it’s still below the safe zone of 3.

As can be seen from the common size balance sheet (Refer Appendix- Balance Sheet Analysis)*, the debt to equity ratio has been almost been the same over the years with debt being more than equity. It is only in FY2012 that for the first time that debt (44. 24%) is less than the equity (55. 75%).

Arvind Mills were also in news recently for the halt in production owing to the strike of its 4000 employees. It was said that some 60% of production of denim was affected daily. The management had to appeal to the workers to resume work immediately.

Arvind Mills’ current ratio has been decreasing continuously for the past 3-4 years. This clearly suggests that its debt paying capability is reducing. Though it doesn’t mean the company will go bankrupt, it does question its operating efficiency. Bombay Dyeing on the other hand has maintained a good ratio, not allowing it to fall below 2.

But in case of Bombay Dyeing, it had risen to very high levels of 8-10 during 2009-10. This was the time when its Z-score was also very less. Though it has brought it down to below 1, which is better than the industry average of 1. 5-2.

INVESTMENT STRATEGY

ARVIND MILLS

Arvind Mills began as a manufacturer of textile but became known later for as the largest manufacturer of the country. After the affect on the performance of the company due to the increase in the price of cotton in mid 1990’s, the company has been on the lookout for other areas of revenues other than just being an exporter of denims. It was with this intent that jeans brands like Ruf n Tuf, Flying Machine and Ruggers. This was also the time that it started facing serious financial problems. In 2007 true to its nature it started to invest again in brands and retail segment by creating Megamart. In 2010 Arvind launched The Arvind Store, a concept putting the company’s best fabrics, brands and bespoke styling and tailoring solutions under one roof. It also started investing in real estate projects and has become the largest manufacturer of fire protection fabrics. The medium term strategy of Arvind Mills is now to improve ROCE from 105 to 18%, bring down its dependence on debt and reduce its dependence on denims by getting into other area of investment.

BOMBAY DYEING

The retail and the realty business of the Wadia Group are controlled by the Bombay Dyeing company itself. It has a distribution chain consisting of 600 plus exclusive shops throughout the country and also has 14 flagship stores for selling premium brands. The company now plans to create a portfolio of products for use across economic classes. The ‘ home & you’ concept is the group’s strategy in many segments, under which it will be offering wide range of. Bombay Dyeing already makes products for the home textiles segment. For the production it plans to source both in house and from outside. Their strategy is to sell what people want and not what they produce.

Bombay Dyeing has also entered in the real estate industry to diversify its risk. It has formed a real estate arm, Bombay Realty, which will develop real estate projects of the company and the land bank of the parent bank. The group claims to have 10000 acres of land across India. The firm has reportedly launched 2. 5 million square feet of projects in Central Mumbai making it’s the largest real estate development it has done till date. This diversification is being done in a bid to ensure a consistent cash flow to help a turnabout of the company.

NEW PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT/ INNOVATIONS

BOMBAY DYEING

E-magic bed sheets: Launched a new range of Bed sheets with properties of Vitamin E called E Magic to promote the idea of healthy living and a great lifestyle. This new range boasts of new contemporary and modern designs with bold and passionate colours. Taking the world of home furnishings to a completely different level, the E Magic collection from Bombay Dyeing promises to create a bench mark for the brand. This luxury driven soft cotton satin, high thread count bed linen has vitamin E stored as microcapsules in the threads during the process of weaving. When rubbed against the skin, the microcapsules break to release vitamin E. Vitamin E is absorbed much better through the skin especially while sleeping, resulting in a radiant looking skin. The properties of Vitamin E that encapsulated in the bed sheets last for over 20 washes and thus, the value for money spent is also justified.

Aroma Rich Bed sheets: This luxurious soft cotton satin, high thread count bed linen is lightly fragranced with pleasant natural aroma that boosts relaxation and enhances sleep. During the production process, use of a touch of microencapsulated fragrance helps to deliver a mild aroma as the skin rubs against the fabric during usage.

ARVIND MILLS

Arvind Mills has brought out new stock for its domestic brands like Flying Machine by studying the latest fashion styles and fads to appeal to its target markets. It has primarily focused on delivering high quality products to its customers and licensed partners like Tommy Hilfiger etc. It has also developed a few process related technologies for better manufacturing productivity and quality.

INNOVATIONS

Bombay Dyeing has been an innovative company in the sense that it has constantly differentiated itself from others using innovative techniques in printing, raw materials and processes. The aroma rich and e magic line-up is testament to its capabilities in manufacturing highly innovated products, thus adding better value to its customers.

Arvind Mills is focussed on delivering high quality products to its licensed partners and its product line exists to the entire value chain no new product offerings have been made to the customers. It is also not a very innovative company as they have innovated very little in the textile front, focussing mainly on improving technology to keep its processes up to date.  This is evident in the fact that Arvind continuously modifies its production process to enhance flexibility on the use of various types and quality of cotton. To further meet customer needs, Arvind has also introduced a new dyeing and processing method for denims.
