Home Textile Industry / Global Supply Chain : Trends & Update
India is a leading supplier of Sheets & Towels under the Home Textiles Segment (Bed & Bath) given the availability of Cotton. Budget 2023 allocates funds for improving long staple Cotton production in India.
Floor coverings (Bathmats, Rugs, Outdoor, performance textiles) being predominantly polyester based and technical in nature were largely exported out of China until 2018/2019 & estimated exports are said to be at least 20 times of India
Post 2019, Tariffs imposed on China textiles exports, rising labour & power costs, pollution crackdowns, diminishing incentives, etc made the Chinese exports relatively expensive
In 2020/21 owing to COVID Pandemic, supply chain disruptions & strong momentum towards “China Plus One” has led to demand shift from Top Organised Retailers across the Globe towards India, being a natural ally & having reliably delivered over the years
Owing to Domestic challenges & demand scenario, many known contemporary suppliers out of China in range of USD 150 Mln – 250 Mln annual revenue have downsized / diversified out of business
Customer preference across USA, UK & EUR has tangibly shifted to “other than Made in China” as demonstrated from surveys / trends
Incumbent suppliers in India have a huge demand tailwind from above factors. Effective expeditious execution by brownfield / green field expansion is the key to tap demand momentum
Other Supplier countries likes Turkey, Egypt, Portugal, Pakistan, Bangladesh have also faced challenges leading to customer preference towards India
PLI for MMF will establish a robust supply chain of MMF, esp. for Polyester based raw materials to make company’s final products more competitive globally

Management Comments ~ YTD December 2022
-
✓ Revenue for YTD Dec 22 grew 18% over YTD Dec 21 i.e ~INR 4,201 Mln for YTD Dec 22 over PY YTD Dec 21~INR 3,547 Mln. ✓ Profit After Tax grew 23% for YTD Dec 22 over YTD Dec 21
-
✓ The significant push into new product categories, innovative offerings and timely expansions post covid have aided the growth of 18% in this fiscal despite very challenging backdrop all through FY 23.
-
✓ FY 23 begun with retailers guiding slowdown / inventory pile ups and high prices of key raw materials (both cotton & polyester) whereas H2 of FY 23 has seen significant improvement in inventory levels with retailers, cotton prices have halved & polyester prices are falling gradually. Further the container costs are back to pre-covid levels and energy costs have moderated. However these tailwinds are yet to result into high demand owing to noise around recession / rate hikes in the USA. Whereas EU/UK is looking encouraging since last 2 months given the cool off in energy prices and clarity on availability.
-
✓ Order visibility / pipeline for Q4 FY 23 & FY 24 next year are encouraging and indicating moderate growth as base case across all existing product lines, while new products / development pipeline / orders are expected to spur incremental additional revenue. Company’s well diversified product range & wide customer base has been a strong antidote against direct impact of slowdowns in the past, the same is evidently playing out this fiscal.
-
✓ All Capex planned in western India is concluded and currently planned capex at north India unit is underway as per original schedule. The Company strongly believes that it would be better served & well prepared to service customers once the revival of sentiment & higher demand kicks in during FY 24 as base case.
-
✓ USA continues to witness a strong job market alongside soaring wages / salaries, low delinquency on retail loans, healthy individual b/s etc. This being more relevant metrics for company’s segment of products. The slowdown in US Housing is a headwind for home interiors segment whereas a tailwind for home improvement / home textile ~ merchandising segment.
-
✓ Company’s products largely positioned in the band at $10-25$ per piece / per set band for sale by retailers which empirically have not seen significant reduction in demand in tough times. In fact, benefits accrue from pocket share saved on larger items which is expended on smaller merchandise, though counter-intuitive.
-
✓ Big picture, China plus one sentiment continues to improve in India’s favour overall and especially in value added Textile merchandises pertaining to MMF. Ban on cotton from China is now fully implemented globally. 7
Company’s readiness to capitalize on the Global Opportunity
==> picture [136 x 70] intentionally omitted <==
- ✓ Invested over ~INR 120 Crs from internal accruals across units for Expansion, new machinery, new technologies & de-bottlenecking from 2019 - Dec 2022
✓ Concluded / Ongoing Expansions:
-
✓ Concluded Expansion at Silvassa April 2021 - June 2022 to have 3x capacity of earlier (brown field) on existing spare land, under Floor coverings / Rugs segment. Overall Investment of INR 35 Crs
-
✓ Expansion under Top of Bed & Blankets segment (Nov 2021 to Nov 2022) is concluded to increase capacity to 3x of existing capacity on existing land (brownfield), backed by commitments from various customers. Overall investment INR 25 Crs
-
✓ Ongoing expansion at Panipat, Cotton Home Textiles division to have 3x capacity by Oct 2023. Overall Investment INR 35 Crs (estimated).
-
✓ Investment in subsidiary Mats and More Pvt Limited (Aurangabad) to cater to a new category under floor coverings being patio mats including outdoors to cater to the existing customers based on business visibility. Investment of INR 12 Crs over July 2022June 2023, building a revenue potential of at-least USD 10 Mln in phase 1 within 3-4 years
-
✓ All of the above expansions shall be funded from Internal Cash Accruals
-
✓ Company is also under process of evaluating / exploring relevant / ready to use for manufacturing (brownfield opportunities) from time to time.
-
✓ Invested in Talent acquisition across units, new product development, green initiatives, etc.

Company’s readiness to capitalize on the Opportunity
-
✓ Comfortable Capital Structure. Rated “A-” “Positive” Long term & A2+ Short term (Sept 2022). Significant ability to withstand supply chain pressures on working capital. Entire internal accruals directed towards accelerated expansion & growth in operations
-
✓ Zero Long term debt since 2018. Factories / Infrastructure current replacement value estimated > INR ‘425 Crs, poses significant entry barrier for new entrants
-
✓ Focus on reducing costs, being innovative and most competitive manufacturer for the customer globally while maintaining budgeted net profit margins
-
✓ Strong partnerships with Key Domestic Suppliers / Vendors (being large corporates) with assured business certainty and upfront payment terms to secure quality and timely supplies from best in business
-
✓ Commenced Rooftop Solar of 1.1 MW during the quarter at Silvassa location for captive consumption contributing up to 33% of existing electricity units consumed. Company’s finished goods warehouses (capacity upto 130 HQ containers at a time) are operated by fully Electric lithium-ion fleet of forklifts / reach trucks. Both these initiatives are conscious efforts towards ESG goals of the company with sustainable capital paybacks

CFO for FY21,FY22 was lower owing to supply chain elongation primarily due to container / shipping delays and delayed receipts of govt incentives for exports due to policy changes.
~30% of OP has been invested back into working capital and ~45% of OP has been invested back for expansion for future growth over last 5 years
The Company’s capex plan would be concluded during FY 24. This would make ~40-45% of CFO generated available for alternative uses from H2FY 24 for other purposes.
