UltraTech Cement has conducted a conference call on 24th January 2019 to discuss the financial performance for the third quarter ended December 2018 and way forward. Mr. Atul Daga, Chief Financial Officer of UltraTech Cement, addressed the conference call.
Highlights of the Concall
- Update on Binani --
The Company has successfully completed the acquisition of Binani Cement Limited (BCL) on 20th November, 2018. BCL has been re-named as UltraTech Nathdwara Cement Limited (UNCL), from 13th December, 2018. The acquisition provides the Company access to large reserves of high quality limestone. It consolidates the Company's leadership in the fast growing Northern and Western markets in the country. The Company is confident of turning around the operations at the acquired plants, which will benefit all stakeholders and also result in synergies from optimisation of costs and improved realisations. UNCL Assets are operating at 60% capacity utilisation; 0.1 mt of cement was sold from UNCL assets. Ultratech has commenced the contract manufacturing of cement for Ultratech at Binani Cement on a cost plus basis; integration expected to be completed by Q1FY20. Ultratech infused Rs 3400 crore of equity through internal accruals and Rs 4500 crore has been raised through borrowing of which Rs 2700 crore is on the books of UNCL. Revaluation of the assets will be done on the consolidated financials of Ultratech and accordingly, depreciation will be charged. The Company expects to realise the benefits on account of – i) price improvement of Rs 25-30/bag; ii) synergies on account of logistics savings, power and fuel costs savings (improvement of petcoke usage in kilns).
- Update on JP acquisition
- JPA assets are operating at 75% capacity utilization. The cost gap between the older plants and the acquired assets has been bridged. Plants' operational parameters at par or better than UltraTech's existing plants standard.
-- Admission of petition in NCLT is to be done on 13Feb'19, post which a hearing is expected after a month. The Company expects likely closure of acquisition by Q1FY20
