Welcome to Panama Petrochem Limited Earnings Conference Call for Quarter Three ending December 31, 2022.<\/p>\n<p>I would like to begin by expressing my gratitude to all of you by taking your time to join us on this call. This conference call may contain some forward-looking statements about the company, which are based on the beliefs, opinions, and expectations of the company as on the date of this call. These statements are not guarantee of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict.<\/p>\n<p>I would like to introduce Mr. Hussein Rayani, Joint Managing Director; and Mr. Pramod Maheshwari, CFO, Panama Petrochem Limited.<\/p>\n<p>I request Mr. Hussein Rayani to share the quarter three performance overview of our company. Over to you, sir.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hussein Rayani<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>Joint Managing Director<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Thank you, Mahesh. Good morning, everybody. It is my pleasure to welcome you all to the quarter ending December 2022 earnings conference call of Panama Petrochem Limited.<\/p>\n<p>The geopolitical issues and volatile business environment persist in this quarter as well. The company faces challenges in the form of volatile raw material price, due to very uncertain oil market. The price has been very volatile, coupled with supply chain constraints. The businesses were reflecting challenging times. War and sanctions era has made international commerce difficult to perform and execute, thus affecting the export markets. However, given these challenges, Panama Petrochem has performed well, with stable growth in revenues and margins.<\/p>\n<p>Going forward, we anticipate steady performance in coming quarters. We do expect the domestic demand to remain stable and the company&#8217;s reliance on value-added products would enable us to weather these challenges. Customer requirements are expected to remain stable in near future, as we have not observed any fall or postponement in their requirements. And the order book remains healthy in the quarter. Company hopes to provide steady growth guidance for next quarter as well, backed by good domestic manufacturing demand.<\/p>\n<p>On margins front, we are confident of maintaining the trend in near future, backed by increasing the product mix towards the value-add. Expansion programs have been successfully implemented in batches with 30,000 metric tonnes going on-stream in this quarter ending March 2023.<\/p>\n<p>Now, I request Mr. Mahesh Narvekar to give the financial highlights.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mahesh Narvekar<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>Vice President, Corporate Relations<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Thank you, sir.

We will now begin the question-and-answer session. [Operator Instructions] Ladies and gentlemen, we will wait for a moment while the question queue assembles. The first question comes from the line of Harshil Solanki, Equitree Capital. Please go ahead.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Harshil Solanki<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>Equitree Capital &#8212; Analyst<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Hi, good morning, team. I had two questions. Firstly, sir, if you can help us with the volume number for the current quarter?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hussein Rayani<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>Joint Managing Director<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Yes. In this quarter, we have clocked a volume of 59,000 tonnes on consol basis.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Harshil Solanki<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>Equitree Capital &#8212; Analyst<\/em><\/p>\n<p>And this is including our 30,000 tonnes additional capacity, which has come up or this is excluding&#8230;?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hussein Rayani<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>Joint Managing Director<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The 30,000 tonnes additional capacity has been completed and the trials and the production will commence in this quarter.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Harshil Solanki<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>Equitree Capital &#8212; Analyst<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Okay. Got it. Sir, in past, you have said that in the crude, we expect the volumes to increase. But in the current quarter, our volumes have declined. So what is the reason being that?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hussein Rayani<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>Joint Managing Director<\/em><\/p>\n<p>We have been actually facing a global scenario, and the recessionary pressures and the inflationary concerns have led to an overall little bit of the demand in the export, and global markets have been a little bit challenging. The environment is quite challenging. The raw material prices, especially, the oil prices are very volatile. But we are still quite happy with the performance in this quarter and we have seen &#8212; we see that the order book in this current quarter is also quite healthy. And going forward, we are hoping for a much more stable performance by the company.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Harshil Solanki<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>Equitree Capital &#8212; Analyst<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Okay. Got it. Sir, you have earlier guided that we will touch 3,00,000 tonnes volume in this full year. And in the nine months, we have done close to 1,80,000 tonnes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hussein Rayani<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>Joint Managing Director<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Yes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Harshil Solanki<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>Equitree Capital &#8212; Analyst<\/em><\/p>\n<p>So do you think that that number is achievable or you need to revise our guidance for the volume, given the uncertainties?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hussein Rayani<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>Joint Managing Director<\/em><\/p>\n<p>We anticipate about 10% to 15% growth in this year.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Harshil Solanki<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>Equitree Capital &#8212; Analyst<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Yes, sir, but that looks [Indecipherable], right.

Sir, just want to check that basis &#8212; if I see past two years&#8217; demand of our products, what do you think &#8212; I mean, whether company is looking for any significant capacity expansion? And if yes, any tentative timeline for the same?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hussein Rayani<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>Joint Managing Director<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Yes. We have a plan of a total addition in our capacity by 100,000 tonnes, out of which, in this year, we have completed about 30,000 tonnes.

Please go ahead.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dixit Doshi<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>Whitestone Financial Advisors &#8212; Analyst<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Yeah. Thanks for the opportunity. I&#8217;m slightly new to the company, so a couple of basic questions. So you mentioned that 65% of revenue was from value-added products. Can you mention that, let&#8217;s say, two, three years back, pre-COVID, how much was the value-added product mix?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hussein Rayani<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>Joint Managing Director<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Sure. Thank you for your question. So we have been consistently changing the product mix in favor of more value-added, tailor-made, specialized products. If you see about three to four years back, the contribution from value-add was about 50%. So we have been gradually increasing in that and we have plans to further introduce more product ranges in the special &#8212; in the value-added product range.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dixit Doshi<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>Whitestone Financial Advisors &#8212; Analyst<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Okay. And second question is, so if I see our historical performance, I think till FY20, we were doing a 6% to 8% kind of EBITDA margin. And from last three, three and a half years, almost &#8212; we are doing almost 13%, 14% margin consistently. So what led to this change, if you can elaborate?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hussein Rayani<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>Joint Managing Director<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Yeah. There are &#8212; it has been due to a combination of factors. But as I have also mentioned in the previous calls, that the direction of the management is to keep working on the specialty zone, and the change in the product mix is the reason why we have been able to &#8212; the margins have been on the upswing, and that&#8217;s the direction we plan to go forward.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Operator<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Thank you. Mr. Dixit, we request that you return to the question queue for follow-up questions. Next question comes from the line of Harshil Solanki from Equitree Capital. Please go ahead.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Harshil Solanki<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>Equitree Capital &#8212; Analyst<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Hi, sir. Thank you for the follow-up. I had two questions. Any update on the drilling fluid? Have we started the full-fledged supply, or it&#8217;s still we are on the trial basis? Can you shed some light on that?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hussein Rayani<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>Joint Managing Director<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Yes. This is a new range of products, which we have introduced in our portfolio, and we have all the approvals required to supply this product commercially to the major service providers worldwide. We have been supplying this product now on regular basis to regular service providers. But in the last couple of years, due to the very volatile situation in the oil markets, we are &#8212; still, we are hoping that in the coming years, this would be a significant part of our revenues.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Harshil Solanki<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>Equitree Capital &#8212; Analyst<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Okay. Sir, next question is on the GDR. Last month, 7,50,000 GDRs were converted into equity and the promoters bought close to 2,00,000 shares on the market. So this has resulted into some dilution of promoter holding. So how does the promoter family look at it going forward, because if in future, the conversion continues to happen, our holding will&#8230;?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hussein Rayani<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>Joint Managing Director<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Mr. Mahesh?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mahesh Narvekar<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>Vice President, Corporate Relations<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Yeah. Harshil, Mahesh here. As far as this promoters&#8217; dilution, promoters have not sold any shares into the market, neither they do enter into all these transactions here. And GDRs have been totally converted into equity. So a further dilution &#8212; we don&#8217;t anticipate any dilution from the promoters&#8217; side.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Operator<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Thank you.

Please go ahead.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Manpreet Singh<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>Individual Investor &#8212; Analyst<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Thank you. Mr. Rayani, I have two questions, basically follow-up from answers you gave during the call. My first question is regarding this long-term supply of raw materials that you were talking about. From the earlier calls, I&#8217;ve understood that it&#8217;s sort of monthly contract that we get into with your customers. So whatever volatility in raw material happens, you are able to pass it on. But in this quarter, it seems that you were not able to pass it on and your gross margin got impacted. So in light of it, are we to understand that now you&#8217;ve taken a policy of entering into long-term contracts for your raw material supply so that you can assure your gross margins? If the answer is yes, then I would want to know that why wasn&#8217;t this done earlier, considering the volatility? So this is the question around raw material.<\/p>\n<p>And my second question would come around the volume &#8212; the sales volume, but that I&#8217;ll ask later on. So &#8212; yeah.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hussein Rayani<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>Joint Managing Director<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Yeah. See, we &#8212; our purchase is under long-term contracts with our suppliers who are refineries, which &#8212; who are located world over in different parts of the world and we&#8217;ve been having long-term contracts with them over the years, because in times of volatility and supply chain constraints, if we have a contract then we get a steady flow of raw materials always. So this has been the policy. We have &#8212; about 50% of our raw material requirements are under long-term purchase contracts and the balance requirements, we have with the spot purchase.<\/p>\n<p>In terms of the sales, we &#8212; with our customers, we &#8212; normally, we have a practice of quarterly engagement on the volumes, but the prices are negotiated every month. So it is the same strategy, which we are following that every monthly, any changes in the prices have been &#8212; are always passed on. In this quarter also, if you would have seen, there is a slight downward on the margins. But we are &#8212; we have always given a guidance on the margins, and we have been able to have a steady performance in this quarter also. So there is no change in the business model in terms of supply raw &#8212; supply of raw materials and our sales to our customer.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Operator<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Thank you. Mr. Manpreet [Phonetic], we request that you return to the question queue for follow-up questions. Next question comes from the line of Venkatesh from LogicTree. Please go ahead.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Venkatesh Subramanian<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>LogicTree &#8212; Analyst<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Yes, sir, good morning. Sir, one big picture question. I know that you&#8217;re expanding capacity. You mentioned we are adding 30,000 tonnes this quarter and another 60,000 tonnes probably in the next one or two years. So what is your &#8212; if I take a slightly longer-term view and &#8212; say, a three year or a five-year horizon, what is that &#8212; do you envision for Panama Petro in terms of broad topline growth? And are there any new opportunities, new value-added products that you may want to get into? Can you give us some big picture? And most importantly, sir, is Panama Petro &#8212; is it &#8212; in terms of competitive positioning, what is the advantage that we enjoy? Because we&#8217;ve been very successful at it for a very long term. Just want to understand what is your strength? Yeah.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hussein Rayani<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>Joint Managing Director<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Yeah. Thank you very much for your question. The company &#8212; the management has a very clear direction to work more with closely in the specialty zone and keep on adding new products, which are much more environmental-friendly, which are much more specialized, which are much more tailor-made. So if you see, the long-term vision of the company is to keep introducing newer and cleaner products, which are the need of the time. So that is &#8212; we are &#8212; we have a very strong R&amp;D center at our Ankleshwar unit, where there is a lot of work going on, not only to introduce newer products in our existing segments that we are operating, but also to introduce some new products for new, specialized application.<\/p>\n<p>So if you would see, we are confident of having a growth of about 10% to 15% every year and with &#8212; our vision to change the product mix more towards the value-adds.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Operator<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Thank you. Mr. Venkatesh, we request that you return to the question queue for follow-up questions.

Please go ahead.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dixit Doshi<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>Whitestone Financial Advisors &#8212; Analyst<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Yeah. Thanks for the opportunity again. My question was a positive 30,000 tonne expansion. How is &#8212; how much is our capacity right now? And what is the margin difference between the value-added products and, let&#8217;s say, non-value-added products? Thank you.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hussein Rayani<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>Joint Managing Director<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Yeah. The total capacity will this new addition would be about 270,000 tonnes, as compared to 2,40,000 tonnes in the last year. And normally, we have about &#8212; for the conventional grades, we have an EBITDA margin of 8% to 10% vis-a-vis about 14% to 15% for our value-add. So we have a blended EBITDA in the range of 12% to 14%.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Operator<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Thank you. Mr. Dixit, We request that you return to the question queue for follow-up questions. Next question comes from the line of Manpreet Singh [Phonetic], an Individual Investor. Please go ahead.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Manpreet Singh<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>Individual Investor &#8212; Analyst<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Yeah. Thank you. So Mr. Rayani, the second thing I wanted to understand is, with respect to your volume done so far and then your sales estimate for the entire year, so what I understand so far is that in nine months, you&#8217;ve done around 170,000 tonnes vis-a-vis [Phonetic] the 180,000 tonnes yield of volume. But last year, you&#8217;ve done 260,000 tonnes. So if I just sort of annualize the current run rate, it gets me to around 240,000 tonnes for the entire year, which is, of course, going to be lower than the previous year. So in light of this, how do you expect that your sales volume &#8212; you are enjoying going growth of, let&#8217;s say, 10% to 15% in your revenues and probably your profitability as well?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hussein Rayani<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>Joint Managing Director<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Yeah. So if you will compare the revenues on the nine-monthly basis, there has been increase of about 7%, from INR1,640 crores to INR1,760 crores &#8212; INR1,742 crores for the nine months of this year. In terms of volume, we have clocked about 180,000 tonnes. So we anticipate, in terms of the sales, we should be about 10% higher than the last year.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Operator<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Thank you. Mr. Manpreet [Phonetic], to ask a question, please return to the queue. Next question comes from the line of Venkatesh from LogicTree. Please go ahead.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Venkatesh Subramanian<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>LogicTree &#8212; Analyst<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Yeah. So just on the capacity, right, sir, we are adding 12,000 tonnes this quarter and the next 30,000 tonnes would come in, in the second half of FY24. Is that right, sir?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hussein Rayani<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>Joint Managing Director<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Yes, that&#8217;s right.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Venkatesh Subramanian<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>LogicTree &#8212; Analyst<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Okay. I&#8217;ll join the question queue, sir.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Operator<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Thank you. Next question comes from the line of Manpreet Singh [Phonetic], an Individual Investor. Please go ahead.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Manpreet Singh<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>Individual Investor &#8212; Analyst<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Mr. Rayani, sorry, I&#8217;m back. On the previous revenue part, I was not able to ask a clarified question, so I have to come back, but &#8212; okay. So I was able to understand that you said that in nine months, the revenue have been increased to, I think, INR1,738 crores versus INR1,624 crores [Phonetic]. So there is a &#8212; the follow-up question is that, if your volume has been lowered, how is that your revenue has gone up? Is it because you&#8217;ve been able to increase your selling price? Is it because you&#8217;ve been able to improve your product mix? So what is the reason for that?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hussein Rayani<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>Joint Managing Director<\/em><\/p>\n<p>So even if you compared for the nine months volume data, in the nine months last year, FY22, we had about 170,000 tonnes of volumes done vis-a-vis 180,000 tonnes in the nine months ending in this year, FY23. So there has been about 6% increase in volume on a nine-monthly basis.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Operator<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Thank you, Mr. Manpreet [Phonetic], please return to the question queue.

Sir, following up on the question on your competitive advantage, I wanted to check with you, as Panama Petro, is there a global company or a company in the region that you consider as a benchmark or a competition, somebody who we think we can kind of compare ourselves with?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hussein Rayani<\/strong>\u00a0&#8212;\u00a0<em>Joint Managing Director<\/em><\/p>\n<p>No, we cannot reveal the &#8212; any kind of data on the competition. But yes, for us, the advantage, as I said, we are having a product mix, where value-add is about 65% of our total revenues. Export contributes about 41% of our total revenues. We are currently exporting our products to more than 75 countries worldwide. And in terms of the domestic sales, we&#8217;ve been working with most of the multinational companies in each segment. So we provide them with an import substitute product. I mean, otherwise, they would have to be importing. So we give them a just-in-time delivery with an import substitute. So all these advantages help us to further cement our position with our customers and increase our relations with them.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Operator<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Thank you.
