6MFY20 Financial Update- the company has come in a loss.

https://dyvmwwyqozzzb.cloudfront.net/main/ICL-Unaudited-Financial-Result-30.09.2019.pdf

The company was performing really well till 31.03.2019. However, due to demand slowness and China again starting the production of Graphite, the company is feeling the heat. The main client of the company i.e. Graphite India is also facing the same issue. The company has made a loss of 26 cr in the first 6MFY19-20 as compared to a profit of 107 cr last year in the same period.

Review of Financial Performance of the company in FY17-18

1. During the financial year ended 31.03.2018, the Company has achieved a gross revenue from operation amounting to 342.95 Crore as against 142.25 Crore in the last financial year, an increase of 141.09 % as compared to the previous financial year.

2. Production of Calcined Petroleum Coke (CPC) during the year was 85,789MT as against 60,432 MT in the previous year and Electrode Carbon Paste (ECP) production was 4,622MT as against 4,331MT in the previous year, an increase of 41.96% & 6.72% respectively.

3. Further, Sales of CPC for the year under review was 82,470 MT as against 57,248 MT in the previous year, an increase of 44.06%. ECP sales were 4,622 MT as against 4,269 MT in the previous year, an increase of 8.27%.

4. During the year, both production and sales of CPC, which is the main constituent of your Company’s turnover significantly increased as compared to the previous year, resulting in lower cost of production due to much better capacity utilization, leading to increased sales due to additional production, as well as many improved prices.

5. During the year, the demand from all the consuming sectors, primarily, Aluminum, Steel and especially Graphite Electrodes increased due to pick up in the economy, as well as due to massive curtailment in production caused by large-scale shutting up of polluting industries in China.

In view of handsome profit earned by the Company during the F.Y as compared to previous years, the directors are happy to recommend payment of dividend to the equity shareholders @150% i.e ` 15/- per equity share of 10/- each for the F.Y 2017-18 after payment of dividend distribution tax as may be applicable.

The most problematic issue in the carbon industry is Pollution. We have seen in the past goverment has shut down plants due to rising pollution from carbon companies. China last year has shut down electrode making companies and steel making companies which contribute pollution and instructed to switch to newer technology which produces less pollution.

However, over the years the ICL is one of the few Companies to go beyond the required norms for the betterment of the environment. Conservation of energy and water resources has forever been a key objective for the Company. Moreover, the installation of high-end Gas Cleaning Systems has ensured that industrial pollution is kept to a minimum and is causing no damage to the environment.
