BWR has reaffirmed its ratings on the bank facilities of Aarvee Denim and Exports Limited (ADEL) at BWR B+/Stable/ BWR A4
The rating continue to reflect extensive experience of promoters and management and integrated operations. The rating is constrained by highly leveraged capital structure, volatile raw material prices and competitive textile industry.Outlook~ Stable
BWR believes the ADEL’s business risk profile will be moderate 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 'Negative' if the revenues declines and profit margins show lower than expected figures. The outlook may be revised to positive if there is improvement in financial risk profile or in liquidity profile. KEY RATING DRIVERSCredit Strengths:
ADEL is co-promoted by two promoter groups-Arora group and Virendra Bhogilal (V.B) Group. Arora group has the experience in the business of marketing of Denim Fabrics over the last three decades and VB group has a long standing experience in the textile segment spread over the last 60 years. They are supported by a well qualified and professional management team.
ADEL is present across the textiles value chain right from yarn up to the weaving facilities of manufacturing a wide range of Denim and Non-Denim Fabrics, and processing. The Company has integrated manufacturing facilities by way of 3 manufacturing plants located in and around Ahmedabad, comprising one dedicated spinning plant, one weaving, processing and finishing plant and one fully integrated composite plant comprising spinning, weaving and finishing facilities. With the current slowdown the Company had reduced the production from current level of Rs.160,000 TPD to 1,35,000 TPD however, the same has been back on track since ease in lockdown. The company is estimated to ramp-up in sales with current level of production as confirmed by the management.
Credit Risks:
The Company had total debt of Rs. 420 Cr as on March 31, 2021 comprising long term loans from Financial Institutions, Public Deposits from directors and others and working capital limits. With the losses incurred in FY20 and FY21, networth of the Company has been eroded to Rs. 167 Cr from Rs.231 Cr. This resulted in worsening in gearing to 2.5x from 1.8x in the said period.
The margins of the Company remain exposed to fluctuations in raw material prices which is mainly cotton and which are dependent on global commodity price movements.
ADEL faces intense competitive pressures from both established and lower-end operators. Over the last 4 - 5 years, many cotton yarn and denim manufacturers in the State of Gujarat have expanded capacities on account of various incentive schemes of the State and Central Governments. As a consequence, demand-supply situation has moved in favour of consumers, affecting margins
Positive:
Negative:
LIQUIDITY INDICATORS - Poor
The liquidity profile is poor as reflected in its negative cash accruals in fiscal 2020 and fiscal 2021. In Q1FY22, the net cash accruals remained negative at 5.2 crores. Repayment obligations are met through the cash proceeds from sale of windmill and promoters fund support. The company has sold its 9 windmills out of 14 windmills, the proceeds were used to shred its debt portion by Rs 77.6 crores. The current ratio is average at 1.2 times as on March 31, 2021. Going forward, BWR estimated liquidity profile to improve gradually with improvement in its scale of operations and operating profitability.
