Profile of the Company Promoted by Arun, a mechanical engineer, in 1977 manufactures Wheel Lathe Machines. Offering retrofitting, maintenance and repair services. Over time he has started two more units – Sujana Industrial Corporation (SIC) and Sujana Engineering Corporation (MEC) in the same line of activity. He is running two other business units. Turnover of the group has grown from Rs.3 lakhs to Rs.60 crore over the period 1977 to 2007. Sole customer is Indian Railways. Started getting orders from companies like Visakhapatnam Shipyard and Larsen & Toubro Ltd. Able to win international tenders because of quality and price competitiveness. Arun and his wife are the owners/directors of all the units and Arun alone is running all the units.
Banking Relationship Availing facilities from Modern Bank since 1977. No default so far. SEC and SIC are being merged with SMT as instructed by the Bank. The company had achieved Sales of Rs.245 million by November 2007 and had orders for Rs.550 million on hand. It has also won few tenders and expects to get few more big orders. To meet the increasing demand it needs the following facilities: Term Loan Enhancement of Cash Credit limit Enhancement of BG limits Enhancement of LC limit
Issues for Discussion Credit Analysis Industry analysis Business analysis Management appraisal Financial analysis Qualitative Quantitative SWOT analysis Structure a package including fund based and non-fund based facilities. What security structure and covenants will you stipulate for sanctioning the above facilities? What suggestions will you offer to Mr. Arun for attaining his dream of making his company big and listed on stock exchanges? What is your view on Modern Bank’s suggestion to merge SIC and SEC with SMT?
Machine Tools Industry Growth potential is very high Overall economic growth Growth in user industries Potential for import substitution Potential for exports Less competition Cyclical in nature
Business of SMT Very long existence and well established Good relationship with its customer (Indian Railways) but dependent on a single customer Highly competitive in terms of quality Facing less competition Receiving orders from new customers Current orders position is very good Looking forward to better and bigger opportunities Capacity constraint
Management of SMT Technically competent and experienced Strong commitment Aspirations are very high Single man show No succession plan Lacking professionalism
Financial Analysis
Quality Check Despite a steep increase in sales, capital from SIC and SEC have been withdrawn from the business during 2006-07. The level of sales of the three units does not commensurate with the size of the units. There is holding and cross holding among the group companies. SIC has investments worth Rs. 17.9 million made in the group companies. Whereas capital available in the company is Rs. 10.4 million only. This indicates diversion of funds. Level of receivables is too high.
Quantitative Financial Analysis Historical performance Since the units are getting merged the historical financial statements are not comparable with the projected statements Quality issues need to be addressed by redrawing the historical financial statements Both the issues can be addressed by preparing consolidated financial statements of the three units Future/Projected performance
