(J) Strength & Weakness
Strengths
(i) Healthy business risk profile, driven by leading market position across most products and vertically integrated operations
Jubilant Ingrevia Ltd benefits from vertically integrated operations across the value chain, leading to cost competitiveness. About 40% of the CI segment volume is consumed by the SC segment and about 40-45% of the pyridine and picolines output of the SC segment is used in the NHS segment.
(ii) Diversified revenue profile
Revenue profile is diversified, with 38% derived from the high-margin SC segment in fiscal 2024, 16% from the NHS segment and the balance 46% from the relatively low-contribution CI segment. Jubilant Ingrevia is targeting to increase the share of revenue from higher-margin SC and NHS segments over the medium term as the share from SC and NHS improved to 60% during the first quarter of fiscal 2025. Revenue diversity is further augmented by presence in the international markets, which accounted for 41% share of the total revenue in fiscal 2024.
Weaknesses
(i) Working capital-intensive operations
Operations are moderately working capital intensive, indicated by gross current assets (GCAs) of 160 days for fiscal 2024, having increased from 137 days last year, driven by high inventory levels, as the company maintains about two months of raw material and one month of finished goods stock given its wide product portfolio and presence across multiple geographies.
(ii) Exposure to fluctuations in input prices and government policies
Fluctuations in the prices of acetic acid (key raw material for the CI segment) has led to volatility in operating margin. While input price is a pass-through, in case of any sharp increase or decrease in price, there could be some impact on the margin. While its operations are exposed to government policies given the widespread international presence.
