Setting up a 160,000 MT<br />

capacity plant in AP – scalable<br />

to 320,000 MT<br />

Scope for expansion in operating margins…<br />

Increasing focus on water-based emulsion paints , backward integration of its emulsion<br />

requirements and higher operating efficiencies as the <strong>com</strong>pany gains size and scale could<br />

possibly result in higher operating margins in the future. However, we have modeled in a<br />

flat operating margin scenario over FY11-13E, owing to higher raw material costs<br />

environment. Given its increasing focus on enhancing its margins, we do not rule out a<br />

possibility that <strong>Berger</strong> <strong>Paints</strong> could narrow the margin gap to Asian <strong>Paints</strong> in its growth<br />

phas e. (In FY04, Asian <strong>Paints</strong> with revenue of Rs 25 bn had EBITDA margin of 13.5%,<br />

whereas <strong>Berger</strong> <strong>Paints</strong>, in FY11, with revenue of Rs 23 bn has EBITDA margin of 10.2%).<br />

EBITDA margin gap with the leader…could narrow in future<br />

Strong capex plans provide visibility to sustainable volume growth<br />

Healthy demand has led <strong>Berger</strong> <strong>Paints</strong> to embark on a strong expansion plan to enhance its<br />

manufacturing capacities. The <strong>com</strong>pany plans to increase its capacity from 306,129 MT by<br />

52% over a period of 2 years. While it has already expended Rs 1.3 bn towards expansion<br />

in its Rishra and Goa plants, it plans to spend an additional Rs 1.4 bn in a greenfield plant<br />

in Andhra Pradesh over the next 2 years. This plant, with an initial capacity of 160,000 MT<br />

and scalability to 320,000 MT, is expected to <strong>com</strong>mercially start production (Phase I and II<br />

with a capacity of 160,000 MT) from FY14. We believe this will help <strong>Berger</strong> <strong>Paints</strong>, not only<br />

sustain volume growth but also give it a stronger presence in the southern markets and<br />

increase its capacity in water-based paints, which is a faster growing segment with a higher<br />

margin profile.<br />
