I. FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

Building on the momentum built over the three previous quarters, the company ended the year on a strong note with record revenue and profits as well as a robust carried forward order book. We are happy to inform that the Company’s Consolidated Total income exceeded Rs 8,000 cr in the Financial Year 2022 – 23.

Quarter ended March 31, 2023

Financial highlights for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, on a consolidated basis, are summarized as follows:

  • Revenue from operations for Q4FY23 grew 16.4% to Rs 2623.83 cr as compared to Rs 2254.21 cr in Q4FY22.

  • EBIDTA (excluding other income) for Q4FY23 was Rs 179.17 cr (EBITDA margin 6.8% of revenue) as compared to Rs 142.95 cr (EBITDA margin 6.3% of revenue) in Q4FY22.

  • Profit before tax grew to Rs 146.30 cr in Q4FY23 as compared to Rs 113.91 cr in Q4FY22.

  • Further, the company was able to successfully conclude the sale of a larger land parcel at Thane, thus realizing a gain of Rs 170.81 cr (Net of Tax Rs. 139.24 cr), which is reported as an Exceptional Income for Q4FY23.

Year Ended March 31, 2023

Financial highlights for the year ended March 31, 2023, on a consolidated basis, are summarized below:

  • Revenue from operations for FY23 grew 31.6% to Rs 7977.32 cr as compared to Rs 6064.08 cr in FY22.

  • EBIDTA (excluding other income) for FY23 improved to Rs 492.78 cr (EBITDA margin 6.2% of revenue) as compared to Rs 346.47 cr (EBITDA margin 5.7% of revenue) in FY22 due to the impact of scale.

  • As already reported, till Q2FY23, the Company had been following the Written Down Value method of accounting depreciation and it switched over to the straight-line method of depreciation effective Q3FY23. This led to a lower depreciation charge for the year by Rs 18.11 cr (Net of tax Rs. 13.55 cr).

  • PBT before exceptional items grew 53.3% to Rs 384.57 cr in FY23 as compared to Rs 250.90 cr in FY22.

  • Tax expense for FY23 was Rs 154.69 cr as compared to Rs 82.90 cr in FY22. It is pertinent to note that tax expense for FY23 also includes the Capital Gain tax of Rs 31.57 cr incurred on the profit from sale of Thane Property.

  • Net profit for FY23 grew to Rs 261.45 cr (excluding the profit on sale of Thane land parcel) as compared to Rs 168.00 cr in FY22.

  • In view of the record revenue and profits earned by the company, a dividend of Rs 12 per share is recommended by the Board of Directors of the Company.

  • The Board has recommended an issue of Bonus shares in the ratio of 1:1, that is, one bonus equity share of Rs. 2/- each for every fully paid-up equity share of Rs. 2/- each, subject to the approval of shareholders.

  • Carried-forward order book as of March 31, 2023, grew by 55.0% to a record Rs 5042.27 cr, as compared to Rs 3253.30 cr as of March 31, 2022.

  • Capital Employed as of March 31, 2023, increased to Rs 1538.27 cr as compared to Rs 1087.68 cr as of March 31, 2022, primarily owing to the capital investments for manufacturing capacity expansion projects, at its existing plants as well as the new plant at Sri City set up by the wholly owned subsidiary Blue Star Climatech Limited. Higher inventory holding to prepare for the upcoming season also contributed to this increase.

  • Inspite of the increase in Capital employed due to major investments in manufacturing capacities and additional working capital to fund the revenue growth, good operating cash flows ensured that the net borrowing as of March 31, 2023, stood at a reasonable Rs 204.43 cr (debt equity ratio of 0.15 on a net basis) as compared to a net borrowing of Rs 67.14 cr (debt equity ratio of 0.07 on a net basis) as of March 31, 2022.

1. Electro-Mechanical Projects business

The government’s thrust on infrastructure development and enhanced private capex led to a strong uptick in enquiries and order finalizations. We continued to witness healthy order inflows across segments including buildings, metro railways, factories, and data centers.

With significant orders secured for railway electrification, we have been successfully expanding our presence in the railway segment, thereby further consolidating our position in the Projects Business Space.

Major orders were received during the quarter from a prominent data center player from Pune and West Central Railway (Kota Division)

Carried-forward order book of the Electro-Mechanical Projects business was at Rs 3892.86 cr as on March 31, 2023, as compared to Rs 2294.58 cr as on March 31, 2022, a growth of 69.7%.

3. International Business

Despite the global slowdown, business and economic activities in the Middle East markets continued to remain upbeat. We witnessed growth across all segments and territories with increasing demand for our new range of air conditioning and refrigeration products.

The projects business at Qatar de-grew on account of restrictions imposed in the run up to the FIFA World Cup. However, we are witnessing an increase in inflow of enquiries and it is expected to return to a growth path next year. The operations of the joint venture at Malaysia continued to be impacted owing to a slowdown in construction and order finalizations amidst weak macroeconomic conditions in the country.

In order to expand our international presence, we have incorporated wholly owned subsidiaries in North America and Europe.

We continue to invest in R&D, product portfolio expansion and brand building in the different markets in which we are present.

Segment II: Unitary Products

Segment II revenue grew 22.3% to Rs 1267.72 cr in Q4FY23 as compared to Rs 1036.67 cr in Q4FY22. Segment results improved to Rs 106.95 cr (8.4% of revenue) in Q4FY23 as compared to Rs 72.05 cr (7.0% of revenue) in Q4FY22. The rejigged product portfolio, Total Cost Management initiatives and benefit of scale resulted in improvement in margins for the quarter.

Revenue for the year grew by 38.8% to Rs 3626.93 cr in FY23 as compared to Rs 2612.24 cr in FY22. Consequently, segment results improved to Rs 282.31 cr (7.8% of revenue) in FY23 as compared to Rs 155.86 cr (6.0% of revenue) in FY22.

1. Cooling and Purification Products business

With the early onset of summers across some parts of the country, we witnessed a surge in demand for our room air conditioners and registered a growth of 20% as compared to the same quarter last year.

We estimate that we grew faster than the market and ended the year with a market share of 13.5%.

We further consolidated our position in the room air conditioner market segment with the launch of our new range of affordable Room ACs. With these new models, we now have an extensive product range catering to all segments at multiple price points.

We also witnessed a growth in demand for our kitchen refrigeration equipment, driven by the revival of the hospitality sector and continued growth in demand for our supermarket refrigeration products from the retail segment.

We continued to maintain our leadership position in Deep Freezers, Storage Water Coolers and Modular Cold Rooms.

With the revival of private capex cycle, revenue grew across all lines of businesses. Apart from MedTech products and solutions, demand for the non-destructive testing solutions also gained momentum during the quarter.

Major orders were bagged from JSW Steel Limited, Tirumala Hospitals, Maruti Suzuki, Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited, HDFC Bank to name a few.

III. BUSINESS OUTLOOK

Robust demand across businesses enabled us to end the year on a high note with a healthy revenue and margin profile. In addition to bridging our product portfolio gaps and higher levels of localization, we will continue to invest in expanding our distribution footprint, enhancing R&D capabilities and brand building.

With the weather forecast indicating a strong summer combined with strong carry forward order book for our B2B businesses, we are optimistic about the prospects for Q1FY24 and FY24.

NOTES:

  • 1 The Audit Committee has reviewed and the Board of Directors has approved the above results at their respective meetings held on May 04, 2023. Figures for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022 are balancing figures between audited figures in respect of the full financial years and the unaudited figures upto the third quarter ended December 31, for respective years, which were subjected to limited review.

  • 2 The Company continues to monitor the economic effects of COVID-19 on its business. Based on the current evaluation by the management, the carrying amounts of the assets are considered recoverable.

  • 3 The Code on Social Security, 2020 (‘the Code’) received presidential assent on September 28, 2020. However, the date on which the Code will come into effect has not yet been notified. The Company will record any related financial impact of the Code in the books of account, in the period(s) in which the Code becomes effective.

  • 4 Additional disclosure as per Regulation 52(4) of SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements), Regulation 2015.

  • i The Company has allotted unsecured redeemable non-convertible debentures (NCDs) on June 1, 2020. Total Non-Convertible Debenture of the Company outstanding as on March 31, 2023 are Rs.175 crore.

  • ii Ratio Definitions: Debt / Equity Ratio = Total Debt (Non-current borrowings + current borrowings) / Equity DSCR = [Earnings before Interest and Tax ] / [Interest expenses + Principal repayments made during the period for long term loans] ISCR = [Earnings before Interest and Tax ] / Interest expenses

  • Net worth as per section 2(57) of the Companies Act, 2013 Current Ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities

  • Long term debt to working capital = [Non-Current Borrowings + Current Maturities of Non-Current Borrowings] / [Current Assets less Current Liabilities] Bad debts to Account receivable ratio = Bad debts / Average gross account receivable Current liability ratio = Current liabilities / Total liabilities

  • Total debt to total assets = Total debt (Non-current borrowings + current borrowings) / Total assets Debtors turnover (no. of days) = Average Debtors for the period / Turnover for the period X Number of days in reporting period. Inventory turnover (no. of days) = Average Inventory for the period / Cost of Goods Sold for the period X Number of days in reporting period. Operating margin (%) = Operating EBITDA (Profit before tax - Other income + Finance charges + Depreciation) / Revenue from operations X 100 Net profit margin (%) = Profit/(Loss) for the period / Total income X 100

  • 5 The Company has capitalised new capacities including plant and machinery and factory buildings in the current financial period. Based on review of the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the company’s Property, Plant and Equipment by the management with the help of an external expert, it is concluded that ‘straight line method' of depreciation fairly reflects the pattern in which such benefits from use of the assets are expected to be consummated. Accordingly, the depreciation method has been changed from ‘written down value method' to ‘straight line method’ with effect from October 1, 2022 and accounted as change in accounting estimate in accordance with Ind AS 8, Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors. Depreciation for the quarter and year ended March 31, 2023, is lower by Rs. 7.03 crores and Rs 17.15 crores respectively due to aforesaid change of the method.

  • 6 From FY23, the Company is availing the prescribed tax rate provision applicable under section 115BAA of the Income Tax Act,1961.

  • 7 The Board of Directors of the Company in its meeting held on May 4, 2023 approved issue of bonus shares in the proportion of 1:1 i.e. 1 (One) bonus equity share of ₹ 2/- each for every 1 (One) fully paid-up equity share of ₹ 2/- each held as on record date, subject to approval by the shareholders of the Company.

  • 8 The Board of Directors in this meeting recommended the final dividend of ₹ 12 per equity share of ₹ 2 each (pre-bonus) (FY 21-22, Final dividend of ₹ 10 per equity share), which translates into final dividend of ₹ 6 per equity share of ₹ 2 each (post-bonus) for FY 22-23.
