Chemplast Sanmar IPO - SWOT Analysis

strengths

Strengths

  • Brand Recognition: This company is a part of the Sanmar Group, which has established a firm foothold in the niche chemical products market. Moreover, Sanmar Group Limited has a large asset base of over $1.5 billion, along with international collaborations across different segments of the sector. It operates in various countries globally, including Mexico, the US and Egypt.
  • Emphasis on Specialty Chemicals Operations: Chemplast Sanmar primarily focuses on speciality chemicals operations associated with high margins. Furthermore, this business segment has moderate volume and represents tremendous growth potential.
  • Geographical Advantage: The company reaps the benefits of low expenses owing to the strategic selection of locations. Since it mainly operates in the southern and eastern Indian markets, it incurs low operating, freight, and labour costs.
Weaknesses

Weaknesses

  • Increased Debt Burden: Before FY20, this company had favourable debt and gearing metrics owing to a low debt burden. However, in the past two years, the company’s debt level has increased significantly due to NCDs and high coupon payments. For FY2020, Chemplast Sanmar’s debt ratio stood at 1.42 times
  • Decline in Profit After Tax: The company has recorded a decline in profit after tax in the past financial year owing to the surge in interest payments and financing costs.
Opportunities

Opportunities

  • Growing Demand for Paste PVC: In India, there’s strong demand for paste PVC, and it is increasing year on year due to multiple end-use divisions, especially the artificial leather space. Chemplast Sanmar is the largest paste PVC producer in this country. Hence, it is ideally positioned to make the most of this opportunity.
Threats

Threats

  • Adverse Price Movements of Raw materials: The price of EDC, one of the important raw materials of its products, is highly volatile. If the price increases in the future, the company’s expenses will increase, thus impacting its margins.
  • Forex Fluctuations: Chemplast Sanmar imports some of the necessary raw materials utilised in the manufacturing process. Accordingly, this company’s profitability might be impacted due to forex fluctuations.
  • Operational Issues: Similar to most speciality chemical manufacturers, this company remains exposed to the risk of operational disruptions in production facilities. One of the reasons might be the non-availability of raw materials.
Strenghts Strengths
Weaknesses Weaknesses
Opportunities Opportunities
Threats Threats

Strengths

  • Scaled Diagnostics Operation: Krsnaa Diagnostics operates in 14 states across the country with 465 pathology labs and over 2000 diagnostic centres, including collection and processing centres. Its operational base provides the company with strong financial leverage, helping it maintain a 30% operating margin as of 31 March 2020.
  • Healthy Financial Risk Profile: The management of Krsnaa Diagnostics strives to maintain a 1:1 equity-to-debt ratio, keeping its risk profile at a moderate level over the medium term.
  • Robust Infrastructure: It uses advanced technology and the best of the latest equipment in its diagnostics centres. Such modern and technologically advanced infrastructure offers it a competitive advantage in the market and helps retain and increase its customer base.

Weaknesses 

  • Working capital needs: The PPP segment accounts for a significant portion of its receivables, stretching the credit period between 115 and 139 days. Therefore, its working capital requirements are significantly high.

Opportunities 

  • Growth Prospects: The diverse geographical presence and strong financials offer Krsnaa Diagnostics the flexibility to expand its scale of operation and facility units.
  • Large Government Orders: Since the pandemic hit, GOI has decided to up its investment in the healthcare sector. This opens up opportunities for the company as it receives nearly 70% of its orders from government departments as of 31 March 2020.

Threats 

  • Increase in Operating Costs: The tenders Krsnaa Diagnostics receive usually feature a tenure of 7 – 10 years. The price goes up by 2 – 3% after every 3 – 5 years. Therefore, if there’s a sudden increase in its operating costs, the company may struggle.
  • Generic Products: Diagnostics centres across the country offer similar tests and methods of prognosis. This increases the competition for the company from both regional and established market players.
