Cosmo Films Ltd.
Cosmo Films Ltd is a leading manufacturer in flexible packaging with wide range of products in its portfolio. It was the first to manufacture Bi-axially Oriented Polypropylene Films (BOPP) in India with 20% market share. Cosmo has manufacturing units in India, Korea, Japan and US and customers across 80 countries around the globe.
Dynamic Levels is positive on the prospects on Cosmo films as:
In FY 16 the Cosmo maintained its topline at par compared to last year but reduced the expenditure by 100 Cr from 1577 Cr to 1465 Cr as the cost of raw materials went down from 1122 Cr to 1002 Cr due to fall in crude oil price which is a major part of expenditure for packaging industry.
Finance Cost went down by 9.8 Cr from 39.88 Cr to 30.18 Cr indicating reduction in debt of the Cosmo.
PAT increased from 27.66 Cr to 96.24 Cr i.e. up by 248% YoY whereas price has gone up by 386% from low of 84 to 408.
The share is still trading at a low PE of 8.91 compared to Industry PE of 18.73
To reduce the impact to crude price volatility COSMO is shifting its focus to specialty.

Packaging Industry- India
The Indian Packaging Institute estimates that the packaging industry in India is worth USD 24 billion and growing at more than 15% p.a.
India’s share of USD 24.6 billion in the USD 77 billion global packaging industry is a considerable share with a promising scope for further growth. India ranks 2nd in terms of growth (with a growth rate of 14%-15%) with China leading the growth race at 18% annual growth. Both countries are way ahead of the competition even at a global level because the global packaging industry growth rate is merely 3%-5%. Such stats clearly indicate the potential that the industry has for becoming a global player.
However, there are certain issues that are creating obstacles for the industry.
Increasing global competition. The only way for India to meet the global competition is to conform to internationally accepted standards in packaging.
Rejection of products at the destination: India has a good export scenario wherein several products are sent to global markets. However, India does not have packaging specifications for most of the exportable commodities. This is one of the reasons for rejection of products at the destination. The world today is not divided by boundaries when it comes to business and trade.
During the national conference on ‘Make in India — Packaging Transportation of Hazardous Goods and UN Certification’, N.C. Saha, director – Indian Institute of Packaging, said, “The Union ministry of commerce has constituted a standing committee to formulate the packaging specifications for 500 exportable commodities over the next year. By March 2016, IIP will develop packaging specifications for tea, coffee, spices, cut flowers, marine products, table eggs, fresh fruits and vegetables.”
IIP (Indian Institute of Packaging) is an autonomous body established under the Ministry of Commerce and Industry. It has been given the responsibility of developing packaging specifications by 2016 in line with global packaging standards for 500 exportable commodities including tea, coffee, spices, cut flowers, marine products, table eggs, fresh fruits and vegetables.
Being a member of the UN, it has become important for India to comply with the regulations, especially after mandating the UN certification for packaging of goods catering to international market. Maybe these changes would provide the means for leveraging the use of flexible plastic packaging that has dominated the Indian packaging Industry till now.
Challenges for Packaging Industry
Rapid changes in technology
Shortage and Rising cost of raw
material
Costly Skilled Manpower
Rising input costs
Highly inadequate credit flow
Lack of Market Access &
Advanced technology
Lack of exposure to Best
Management and
Manufacturing Practices
Lack of 100% commitment to
the quality standards
Lack of Marketing, Distribution
and Branding
Non-availability of skilled man-
power

Although traditional packaging options exist, the shift to flexible packaging has been a more recent change arising out of better visual appeal, cost effectiveness, and sturdiness of the packaging material.
India needs to capitalize on its strengths in packaging solutions (flexible packaging) and high export potential to become a global player. By focusing on a globally compliant approach, it would be possible for India to increase profits as well as come up as a prominent economy in the world’s trade scenario.

Factors Affecting Growth of Packaging Industry in India
1. Urbanization Modern technology is now an integral part of nation's society today with high-end package usage increasing rapidly. As consumerism is rising, rural India is also slowly changing into more of an urban society. industrialization and expected emergence of the organized retail industry is fuelling the growth of packaging industry. 2. Increasing Health Consciousness As people are becoming more health conscious, there is a growing trend towards wellpacked, branded products rather than the loose and unpackaged formats. Today even a common man is conscious about the food intake he consumes in day-to-day life. 3. Low Purchasing Power resulting in Purchase of Small Packets India being a growing country, purchasing power capacity of Indian consumers is lower; the consumer goods come in small, affordable packages. Products like toothpaste, fairness creams in laminated pouches are highly innovative and are not used elsewhere. Low priced sachets have proved to be extremely popular in smaller towns and villages, where people do not prefer to buy larger packs due to financial constraints. 4. Indian Economy Experiencing Good Growth Prospects The Indian economy is growing at a promising rate, with growth of outputs in agriculture, industry and tertiary sectors. Overall economic growth has proved to be beneficial for the consumer goods market, with more and more products becoming affordable to a larger section of the population. 5. Changing Food Habits amongst Indians Changing lifestyles and lesser time to spend in kitchens are resulting in more incidence of eating away from homes resulting in explosive growth of restaurants and fast food outlets all over the country. Demand for products like pasta, soups, and noodles in India, is fuelling the growth of packaging industry in India. 6. New areas: One area that has been identified as having good market potential is equipment for manufacturing aluminum beverage cans. Machinery for cleaning and drying containers; automatic high speed labeling machines and capping machines; sealing machines for cans, boxes, and other containers; machinery for filling, and closing bottles and cans; packing/wrapping machines; and moulding machines also offer good prospects.

Cosmo Future Outlook
FY11-13 was a challenging for the BOPP industry, it witnessed
slowdown due to fall in demand resulting in deltas getting
crunched. Most players in the industry reported a 60-80% dip
in profitability. However, Cosmo Films was able to buck the
trend through cost optimization & changing production in
favour of higher margin products.
Improved profitability YoY negative to positive.
The BOPP industry is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.5% by FY
20 on the back of the rising penetration of packaged foods and
disposable income.
Capability to substitute other flexible packaging materials such
as BOPET, BOPA and other specialty films, specially coated
label papers and aluminum foils provides a superior edge to
BOPP over other packaging products. BOPP also helps to
improve the shelf life of packaged products.
The management has indicated that it plans to increase the
production of higher value added variants of BOPP along with
thermal and coating films, the contribution of which is
expected to increase to 25% by FY18.
COSMO expects to increase in utilisations from 67% in FY15 to
70% by FY18 led by various technological up gradation
initiatives that the company is carrying out in its manufacturing
facilities
Fluctuating EBITDA margin and PAT margin expected to
stabilize due to cost optimization and improving product mix

Cost Optimization to increase Profitability
(a) Upgradation of old manufacturing equipment which was
earlier consuming higher power per unit of output. With upgradation in manufacturing lines the power consumption per unit of output has reduced from 2 Rs/kg to 0.6 Rs/kg. Accordingly, the power cost as a percentage of revenues has reduced from 7.5% in FY09 to 6% in FY15.
(b) The technological upgradation has helped to control man-power requirements to support the expanded capacity resulting in higher operating efficiencies.
(c) Improving operations at the US facility which posted a negative EBITDA of Rs 29 crore in FY 2014-15 owing to labour issues in the US plant. The management has cleared hurdles in the US and is confident that the EBITDA loss would reduce to 6.5 crore in FY 2015-16.
(d) Shift to value added products to stabilize margins at higher levels.
(e) Shift in focus from traditional products like non tape and taped films to modern techniques like specialty and semi specialty films. These have higher margins and could boost EBITDA margins of the company going forward.
(f) SEZ tax benefit to boost profitability: The Shendra plant, which is dedicated to handle the export requirements of the company, is located in the Special Economic Zone (SEZ), close to Aurangabad. Cosmo will get Tax benefit like no income tax for 5 years etc would accrue to the comany since the plant is located in a SEZ. Tax benefits would lower the company’s effective tax rate to the range of 23 to 25%.
Key Risks faced by Cosmo are:
(a) Fluctuations in the prices of commodities like PET chips could result in volatility in margins and the company might incur inventory losses in the event of a sharp downfall.
(b) Delay in commissioning of the new capacity which is expected to be completed by April 2018 could lead to lower than estimated revenues.

COSMO Valuations & Investment Rationale
An improving trend visible over the last few years due to:
Improving Product Mix towards Value Add, with consequently better margins
Sustainable reduction in variable cost (approx INR 25-30 crores pa)
Increase in production volume by improving existing manufacturing lines efficiency
USA Subsidiary Turnaround, leading to better consolidated results
New planned capacity expansion by 44% with one of the world’s largest and most efficient production
capability at low financing cost would further help higher asset turnover along with improved ratios.
Global annual BOPP demand is estimated to be approx 7.8 million MT. The global demand and supply are
broadly balanced except China.
Currently India BOPP production capability is estimated at approx 500k MT pa. India domestic BOPP
consumption is approx 390k MT pa and export from India is about 110k MT pa. Indian BOPP Industry has been
growing at almost double of the India’s GDP growth rate.
Considering low packaged food penetration in India and rising personal disposable income, the Industry is
estimated to grow fast.
Investment in organized retail industry and change in pack format from rigid to flexible is going to further add
to increasing demand.
Based on capacity addition announced in India, new capacity expected in the Industry may not be able to
address growing India demand. On current India BOPP Industry demand base, one new line each year may not
be sufficient to address India’s growing demand.
Strong domestic and global demand is helping efficient capacity utilization.
In line with strong demand fundamentals, Cosmo Films is implementing an increase in capacity by 60k MT p.a.
with 10.4 meter width state of art BOPP line, which is one of the lowest cost producing line in the world.
We initiate coverage on Cosmo Films Ltd as a BUY @320-340 with a target of Rs 450 representing a potential
upside of 30% from the buy price. COSMO FILMS is trading at a low PE of 8.9. We are positive on the company
prospects due to:
Capacity expansion which will lead to growth in volume, Diversified product portfolio to reduce risk Improving EBITDA and profitability margins and Reducing Long term DEBT of the Co.
