Results of Operations
Quarter Ended December 31, 2019 Compared to Quarter Ended December 31, 2018
- Net Revenue of ₹28.09 billion during Q4 CY19 was a decrease of ~18.1% compared to ₹34.28 billion during Q4 CY18.
- o Carbon sales volumes during Q4 CY19 were 669 thousand metric tonnes, a decrease of ~0.4% compared to 672 thousand metric tonnes in Q4 CY18. During Q4 CY19, the average blended realisation decreased by ~20.6% due to changes in market trend, further affected due to the unfavourable impact from depreciation of the Euro and USD against Indian Rupee by ~4.2% and ~1.2 respectively. Overall, due to the aforesaid reasons, revenue from the Carbon segment decreased by ~20.9% in Q4 CY19 as compared to Q4 CY18.
- o Advanced Materials sales volumes during Q4 CY19 were 92 thousand metric tons, a decrease of ~8.0% as compared to 100 thousand metric tons in Q4 CY18. The decrease in volumes was primarily driven by the sluggish demand in the steel and graphite industries coupled with weakness in the European automotive, adhesive and North America construction industries. During Q4 CY19, the average blended realisation decreased by ~6.7% driven by a decline in oil-related prices along with the unfavourable impact from depreciation of the Euro against the Indian Rupee by ~4.2%. Due to the aforesaid reasons, revenue from the Advanced Materials segment decreased by ~14.2% during Q4 CY19 as compared to Q4 CY18.
- o Cement sales decreased by ~0.6% compared to Q4 of CY 18 due to a decrease in realisations by ~1.5% and offset with increase in volumes by ~0.9%. During Q4 CY19, there was an ~13.3% increase in sales volume from Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Maharashtra, Pondicherry and other small markets offset by ~12.4% lower volumes in Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Odisha and Kerala as compared to Q4 CY18.
- During Q4 CY19, Adjusted EBITDA was ₹4,535 million, an increase of ₹2,037 million compared to Adjusted EBITDA of ₹2,498 million achieved during Q4 CY18. Adjusted EBITDA in the Carbon segment increased by ₹2,113 million due to exhausting of high-value raw materials during the previous quarter. Adjusted EBITDA decreased by ₹54 million and ₹22 million in the Advanced Materials and Cement segments respectively.

- The Company recorded an income tax expense of ₹0.28 billion for Q4 CY19, compared to an income tax benefit of ₹0.22 billion for Q4 CY18. Effective tax rate for the quarter is lower on account of
recognition of additional deferred tax asset due to closure of the Uithoorn facility in the Netherlands, offset by recognition of Global Intangible Low Taxes Income ("GILTI") in USA and taxes incurred on repatriation of profits from Russia and Belgium to Germany.
- The Adjusted Net Profit during Q4 CY19 was ₹1.33 billion as compared to Adjusted Net Loss of ₹0.13 billion during Q4 CY18. The increase was mainly due to improved operating performance.
