Business Overview:

Cocoa Butter Equivalent (CBE) :

They are the largest Indian manufacturers of Sal/Mango based specialty fat CBE(Cocoa Butter Equivalent) which is an alternative to the Cocoa butter utilized in the manufacturing of confectionery and cosmetic products. The extracted exotic products and specialty fats are essential raw materials for cosmetic, confectioneries and health industries due to their properties. Extracted from seeds found in the tribal areas, their main suppliers are the tribal community who consist of over 7.8 million individuals residing in 18000 villages.

Clients :

Along the way Manorama has earned its goodwill with over 4 decades of relationship with global chocolate giants. Their client list consists of Mondelez/Cadbury that contributes about 60% to its total revenue. Along with being the largest manufacturer they are also tagged with being the largest Indian exporter of Sal and Mango based specialty fats & CBEs to the Asian and European markets.

Manufacturing Process :

Tree borne seeds are purchased through the established market village centers. Manorama industries are one point vendor for the tribal. It currently has 18000 collection centers operational. There are two manufacturing processes namely solvent extraction & pre-processing and the second one is refining and fractionation. Solvent and pre-processing has been outsourced to a third party. Whereas, refining and fractionation is carried out at the manufacturing facility in Nagpur. The key source of raw material is sal seeds and mango kernel. The product segment has been bifurcated into mainly 4 parts; personal care, specialty fats, commodities and feeds.

Raipur Facility :

For improving the efficiency an all integrated facility has been set up in Raipur. The entire process of extraction of Indian exotic fats inclusive of the labor intensive process will be carried out at the Raipur facility.The Capex incurred for installing the machines amounted up to Rs 45.61 crores. The electrical installments expenditure stood at Rs 1.84 crores. The plant is expected to enhance the solvent extraction capacity of Sal by 26% at 33,750 metric tonnes (mt). Manorama has undertaken the decision to shut the Dry Factorization and continue solvent factorization at the new installed facility. Dry factorization has the efficiency of 60% and wet factorization has the efficiency of 90%.  As per the company estimates production capacity is supposed to increase to 11,250 tonnes.

1. Dry Factorization: The process is carried out by simple cooling which is called crystallization. Executed in over 48 hours it undergoes the process of pressing wherein the liquid Oleine is released. The hard product left is called stearine. it is the main ingredient for CBE component. During the process Stearine gets mixed with the Oleine part which makes the process inefficient. Oleine contains 35% of the Stearine due to which it has go through re-factorisation.
2. Wet/Solvent Factorization: It is a high investment process that gets completed in about 3- hours. The yield of stearine extraction is higher. The quality of stearine extracted is better as it is completed separated from Oleine and re-factorization is not required. The solvent stearine can be easily blended to manufacture CBE. This curbs its manufacturing cost and makes it more profitable as against dry factorization.

Manorama currently has 75% of its imports covered under this norm.

Products :

• CBE (Cocoa Butter Equivalent): Used as a low cost alternative to cocoa butter in confectionery. Cocoa butter is originally utilized as a core ingredient in manufacturing chocolates. But due to its depleting reserves the cost of procurement has increased prominently. Therefore the companies are opting for alternatives for curbing their expenses. The global CBE demand is currently 1,80,000 tonnes.
• CBE is a blended component of sal, mango kernel, shea nuts and palm oil. It improves the stability of the fat phase of chocolate product thereby combating undesired fat.
• Sal Fat : Sal seeds contain 12-14% fat  with are extracted in the presence of hexane. Sal Oil is extracted using conventional extraction methods. Solvent extraction plant has been de nationalized in major states like Chhattisgarh, Odisha, Madhya Pradesh and Jharkhand. This acts as a catalyst for the private players to expand their business.

Investment Rationale :

Manorama Industries is a unique and niche company involved in Cocoa Butter Substitute. Despite separating the trading business from the manufacturing, company has shown exceptional growth in PAT numbers, which grew from Rs. 10.36 Crores in FY18  to Rs 19.06 crores  in FY 19. A healthy growth of 83.97%. Revenue declined due to trading business being separated from the manufacturing, as manufacturing is the primary business with better growth prospects, profit margins and company’s main focus moving forward to which we agree.

As per the quote seeing is believing, we visited the company’s office at Raipur and nearby manufacturing plant. The company has robust management lead by Mr Saraf capable of guiding Manorama to new heights.

However, After the completion of mandatory 2 years interim period, company has a high probability of shifting from BSE SME to BSE main board. This coupled with tripling of capacity due to latest manufacturing plant equipped with wet extraction techniques can project a revenue of Rs 200 to 250 Crores.

BoB also owns six subsidiaries to diverse its financial services across various categories.

Financial Results

If compared with the same quarter of the previous financial year, the bank had posted a consolidated profit of Rs 436 crore.

BoB slippage for the quarter under review stood at Rs 10,387 crore out of which Rs 4,509 crore came as the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) had directed BoB to take into account those accounts that BoB had not  recorded as NPA’s during the previous financial year.

 However, besides the these NPA’s, BoB witnessed a rise in slippages from three non-banking finance company (NBFC) accounts amounting to Rs 2,900 crore. Slippages in two power sector accounts amounted to Rs 1,000 crore and from one account under the chemical industry amounted to Rs 2,700 crore. These slippages reported along with from the retail sector, agriculture and SME sector bring a total slippage figure close to Rs 7,000 crore. Increased in slippages resulted in the bank to increase its provisions to 54.0% at Rs 6,621 crore for the December ended quarter as compared to QFY18 numbers at Rs 4,505 crore.

According to the bank, the steep increase in the provision is mainly because of divergence after the central bank inspection. BoB’s Net NPA increased to 4.05% after the provisions were made for the December ended quarter. In comparison, NNPAs of the previous quarter stood lesser at 3.90%.

The bank posted a strong growth in domestic CASA ratio with a sharp increase of 38.8% overlapping the previous quarter growth of 37.9%. On a YoY basis CASA ratio growth stood at 8.8%. BoB also witnessed a slight increase in global deposits on a YoY basis during the third quarter at 1.1%. Retail loans during the period under review grew by 15.31% on a YoY basis for the December ended quarter bringing a slight growth to overall domestic advances to 0.67% YoY.

Net Interest income (NII) of the bank increased to Rs 7,128 crore a growth of 9.0%. While Net Interest Margins (NIM) increased to 2.80% from Q3FY19 figures which stood at 2.62%. BoB’s standalone operating profit for Q3FY20 stood at Rs 4,958 crore showing a year on year (YoY) increase of 8.5%.

While domestic advances remain stable at Rs 5,44,726 crore as on Q3FY20 in comparison to Q3FY19 which stood at Rs 5,41,103 crore. The growth in retail loan by the bank is driven mainly by the robust growth in vehicles loan during the festive season at 42.9% alongside home loans which stood at Rs 10.2%.

Management Commentary is positive.

The Bank has assured its stakeholders that its international operation is growing with strong growth in Australia and the USA besides other countries. BoB is expected to grow much better in the coming quarters  in retail loans, corporate lending and lending towards MSME.

BoB’s credit card business has not seen that much success as compared to SBI card but BoB is planning to partner up with various brands to build up its credit card business. According to the management, the credit card business has seen a little traction in the past two quarters with a size of half a million customers but is expected to grow.
