Management Comments:
In a statement, Mr. Vayu Garware, CMD, Garware Technical Fibres Ltd. said, “This quarter we were able to post a good revenue of Rs.308.1 Cr with a Net profit of Rs.38.1 Cr. This is post a negative mark to market impact in Income from Investments which impacted the profit for the quarter.
The continued steep inflation in Q3 in raw materials and other commodities affected the margins. We have passed on a majority of the raw material and commodity inflationary costs of Q2 in Q3. However, particularly for international business orders booked earlier, there has been some impact. We will continue to pass on further Q3 cost increases with a couple of months lag.
Challenges of the global supply chain disruption as well as unprecedented increase in freight costs are continuing, and it could continue for another quarter as well. This has impacted dispatches and therefore extended the order to cash cycle times with customers. In Q3 we have been able to improve the situation from the Q2 levels, however there is still some order back log to be delivered. The team is working hard towards ensuring this happens in Q4 and we are able to meet all customer commitments.
As stated earlier, we are confident that we should be able to deliver strong results in Q4. We have a strong International business order pipeline with a higher proportion of Value Added Products to support this expectation. “
