RATING ACTION / OUTLOOK

The removal from issuer not cooperating category  in the ratings of Adoratex ( the firm) factors in its cooperation in submitting relevant financial data and necessary updates. The upgrade in the ratings factors in the firm's improved tangible net worth (TNW), moderate debt protection metrics and improved overall gearing. The ratings continue to derive comfort from the extensive experience of the promoters in manufacturing and exports of carpets and the strategic location of its manufacturing unit at Bhadohi (UP).
 
The ratings are, however, constrained on account of the consistent decline in operating revenues, exposure to foreign exchange volatility risks, working capital intensive nature of the operations and highly competitive industry due to large numbers of players in the unorganised sector. BWR also takes a note of substantial investments made in its  sister concerns.
 
Rating Outlook: Stable
 
BWR believes the Adoratex's business risk profile will be maintained over the medium term. The ‘Stable’ outlook indicates a low likelihood of rating change over the medium term. The rating outlook may be revised to 'Positive' in case the revenues and profit show sustained improvement. The rating outlook may be revised to 'Negative' if the revenues go down and profit margins show lower than expected figures.
