o The Management represented that the sharp drop in sales in the last 3 months has been primarily due to the news spread in the market about the possible sale of the company, which has been used by the competitors to their advantage. As a result many of the distributors/retailers, especially the ones using their own deep freezers have switched to other brands. The Management further represented that the ban on mining in Area 1 has also had an impact on the sales in Q1FY14.

o The Management however expressed confidence that fund infusion primarily targeted towards a sales and incentive strategy could turn around this situation.

39 out of 179 products in the Normal moving category constitute to 31% of net sales in FY13.

The remaining 123 products in the Slow moving category constitute to the remaining 12% of sales.

The Management represented that the non moving products were produced on a ‘made-to-order’ basis as and when there was a request. Furthermore, the minimum order quantity for such products had to be 10 units.

It would be more prudent to focus and increase the market for the fast moving variety rather than waste production space and time for the non moving items.

XYZ has a distribution network in Area 1, Area 3 and Area 2. The Management represented that at one time Area 1 and Area 3 were contributing equally to the total sales. However, Area 1 sales have declined over the period to the current status.

Sales from Area 1, Area 2 and Area 3 contributed 29%, 25% and 46% to the total sales, respectively.

Sales in Area 3 declined the most at 13% followed by Area 1 11% and Area 2 5%.

Sales in all three Areas had increased in FY12 over FY11. However, the main increase was in Area 2 of 23%. The Management represented that this was on account of opening of new markets in Area 2.

Sales in all three states are primarily categorised as:

Sales through Company deep freezers which exclusively houses Classified brand

Sales through deep freezers belonging to distributors, wherein he could store other brands as well.

The Management however could not provide us the exact break up between own deep freezer and distributor owned deep freezer sales. We were informed that Area 1 has a large number of distributor owned deep freezer sales.

Area 1 – Sales from 10 out of 13 locations have declined in sales in FY13, in comparison to FY12 in Area 1 (2/2)

The Management represented that the strategy in Area 1 has been primarily to target the low income groups and no brand awareness especially in major cities has ever been created about the product. Further, on account of working capital constraints, institutional sales have not been targeted due to the requirement of offering a credit period.

The Management represented that decline in sales in Area 1 is due to:

Increased competition from several brands in Area 1 providing various sales incentives to distributors have reduced market size especially among distributor owned freezer sales

Q1 FY14 Sales have fallen by 34% in comparison with Q1 FY13 in Area 1.

Sales from all the areas have fallen in Q1 FY14 as compared to the previous period.

The Management represented that the main reason was ban on mining and the markets news that XYZ was to be sold. This caused several distributors to stop ordering Classified products and switch to competitors.

The Management further represented that Area 1 dealers get more lucrative offers (in terms of no or very less deposit for deep freezers and other variable incentives) from other competitor brands , while XYZ has been unable to do the same due to shortage of funds.

Further, competitor entry providing low priced products like Hangyo has also eaten into Classified’s market.

Sales in Area 3 contributed 46% of the total sales in FY13. Sales in Area 3 have declined by 13% in FY13 over FY12, contrary to growing by 4% in FY12 over FY11.

The major reason for this decline has been discontinuance of Area 6 Depot, which was contributing 16% of the total sales in FY12. The Area 6 depot which was managed by XYZ was discontinued in mid FY13.The Management represented that apart from day to management issues, the cost of running the depot including rent, salaries of staff, pilferages etc were found to be very high and hence unprofitable. Thus, the Management decided to appoint individual distributors in Area 6. However, it was found that the distributors have not performed at par with the Depot in FY13 resulting in an overall drop in sales from Area 6 of 16%.

Market 7 and Market 8, contributing 11% and 7% of total revenue, dropped in sales by 16% and 19% respectively in FY13. The Management represented that lack of marketing efforts in FY13 (holding promotional events and distributing marketing material / incentives) and increased competition (distributors stocking low price products of competitors) led to a decrease in sales from these regions.

Except for Market 23, all old distributors (in operation before 2009) have lagged behind in sales in FY13. Further, 28% of sales were generated from new distributors.

The Management represented that it was a regular practice to discontinue with underperforming distributors, who do not meet the sales target as laid out in the agreement, and shift to other new distributors to achieve higher sales.

Sales from all the distributors have dropped in Quarter 1 of FY14, in comparison with Quarter 1 of FY13.

The distributors in Area 6 have achieved sales of approx. Rs. 15.4 lakhs, whereas the Depot had generated sales of Rs. 64.9 lakhs in the same duration in the previous year.

Sales from major markets like Market 5 and Market 6 have dropped by 32% and 66% respectively in Q1 FY14 in comparison with the previous year.

Similarly no sales was seen from promising markets like Market 23, Market 11 etc.

The Management represented that this decline is largely due a lack of focus on marketing due to lack of funds and believe that an inflow of funds is immediately required to launch an aggressive marketing strategy and reposition the brand.

Amongst the old distributors (in operation before 2008), Market 8 dropped by 46%. The Management represented that though the Market 8 distributor had performed well there were long outstanding dues from him amounting to Rs. 2 lakhs. Hence, the Management decided to discontinue supplies to him till he paid off the old outstanding.

It was observed that the significant increase in sales in FY12 over FY11 was due to new distributors appointed in FY12. In FY12, 35% of total sales came from new distributors. It was also observed that all these new distributors had better sales in FY13 over FY12.

It was observed that no additions to distributors was done in FY13. The Management represented that on account of lack of funds to buy deep freezers they could not venture into new markets.

Sales from Area 2 had gone up 32% in Q1 FY13 over FY12, but dropped by 38% in Q1 FY14 over FY13.

Sales from all the distributors have dropped in Q1FY14 over Q1FY13.

The distributors who had outperformed in FY13 had a drastic decline in sales primarily Market 4 by 60%, Market 8 by 100%, Market 11 by 39% and Market 7 by 30%.

The Management represented that they have stopped offering incentive schemes for distributors/dealers and organizing events for publicity due to unavailability of funds. This has made it easy for low price competitors like Hangyo and Adityaa Ice Creams to take over XYZ market share.

Further, market 2 is currently experiencing strong competition from brands like Creambell and Vadilal.

Q1 FY14 sales have dropped by 38% in comparison with Q1 FY13 sales in Area 2.

o The Management represented that there was an error in the rates taken in their costing and agreed that the input costs were high.

o The management further represented that they would be able to achieve a lower cost by bulk purchases during non-peak season thereby reducing the cost levels to about 42 % of sales. For this however, they would require some additional working capital infusion.

o The claims made by the Management would need to be verified by holding dialogues with some critical suppliers regarding the extent in drop in prices if bulk purchases are made.

42 products with gross margins below 20%

These 42 products account for 22% of total unit sales in FY13.

5 of the products have negative margins and have accounted for gross loss of INR 1,17,034

Management has represented that they did not possess the financial expertise to conduct such an analysis before and hence these margins had never come to light.

Management has further represented that they would take immediate steps to discontinue products with low/ negative gross margins

Product 81

It is important to note that most of the products with the highest contribution margins do not feature in the top 60% of the gross profit contributors. The Management has to have a relook at the sales strategy.

33

Page 36: Sample Due diligence report

High Margin items account for 7% of total unit sales

Although these are high margin items, many of them do not contribute significantly to overall gross profit.

The gross margins do not show any co-relation to the pack size, nor to the flavour.

This indicates that pricing methodology has to be revised.

Products in Category X and Category Y were the highest to be sold, but the same could not be benefited from due to low contribution margins from them.

Insufficient Control Over Assets with Third Parties

•A large portion of the value of fixed assets in the form of deep freezers is with the distributors/ dealers. While the Management maintained that they are aware of the location of each deep freezers, including the switching between distributors, we were not provided sufficient data to verify this claim. As at 31 Mar 13 INR 82.8 lakhs of deep freezers, comprises 31.5% of total assets are lying with such third parties. Appropriate controls and checks and balances need to be put in place to ensure complete controls on such assets.

Controls over deep freezers

•Agreements are entered into with distributors at the time of allotting the deep freezers. A deposit is collected from the distributor against such deep freezers. The agreement states that each year 20% of such deposit would be adjusted. At the end of the 5th year the asset belongs to the distributor. In other words he is permitted to keep the products of XYZ’s competitors in the freezer. While on account of no records maintained we were unable to verify such instances, it may result in the loss of business to XYZ as beyond the 5th year the sales generation may significantly diminish. The Management however represented that the life of the freezers is on an average 3-5 years and the cost of repairs / maintenance goes up after such period.

•The agreement also states that if the cumulative sales till 4th year does not match the targets set, XYZ has the right to take back such freezers. Considering that the life of the freezer is 3-5 years, it is more prudent to have sales targets set for 1-2 years to take such decisions. Though the Management represented that there have been instances wherein a distributor has been discontinued due to non performance within a year, no data was provided for our review.

Agreements pertaining to deep freezers

•The accounts team correctly accounts for the deposit received from distributors as a liability. However, as per the agreement each year 20% of the deposit becomes non – refundable. Hence, it amounts to an income to XYZ and ceases to be a liability, However, we did not come any income accounted for in the period under review. It was also observed that the amount of liability was increasing year on year. A verification of distributor wise deposit status revealed that such adjustments of deposits were not carried out. A reconciliation activity would be required to be conducted to estimate the actual amount of liability, while the balance would need to be accounted for as income. The tax impact on the same would need to be examined in detail.

Liability pertaining to

deposits collected from distributors not

properly accounted for

34

Page 38: Sample Due diligence report

The average income per deep freezer has dropped by Rs.16,000 on an average in FY13 over 12.

The Management represented that the agreement with the distributors with regards the deep freezers has a clause for re-possession of the deep freezer by XYZ if a sales target of INR 300 per day is not met. However we did not come across any sales target in the agreement.

As per the targets, the sales per deep freezer should have been INR 1,09,400 against the three year high of 94,573.

In spite of targets not being achieved, there was no evidence of any freezers being re-possessed.

The Management represents that lack of marketing efforts was one of the main reasons for this drop as earlier they used to provide advertising material worth Rs. 5,000-6,000 ( for P.O.P displays, Glow signs etc.) on an average to newly acquired distributors, which they have now discontinued, along with the withdrawal of attractive dealer schemes (variable incentives).

Status of Statutory Dues Income Tax

The assessment for FY08 and FY09 has been completed. A refund of Rs. 30,184 is due to be received for FY08. No assessment notice has been received from FY10 onwards, as represented by the Management. In the absence of such assessment orders we cannot comment on any probable liability.

Sales Tax Assessment

Area 3 – no assessment notice received till date as represented by Management.

Area 2 – Assessments till FY09 is completed. No assessment orders received from FY 10 onwards as represented by Management.

Area 1 – Assessment completed till FY10. Liability of Rs. 35,634 payable as on date. No assessment orders received from FY11 onwards as represented by Management.

Excise duty

The Management represented that excise duty became applicable for the Company from March 2011 as per Amendment to Notification No. 1/2011-C.E.

There was a minor delay in payment of excise duty for the month of December 2012. Interest amounting to approximately Rs. 71 was found to be payable.

Service Tax

The Management represented that service tax is payable by the Company when their logistics supplier does not charge service tax in his bill.

There was a minor delay in payment of service tax in FY11. Interest amounting to approximately Rs. 22 was found to be payable, in case a query is raised by the Department.

39

Page 43: Sample Due diligence report

Status of Statutory Dues

Area 1 VAT

Delays were observed in the payment of whole amount of VAT month on month from FY11. However, it was also observed that the Management was paying such amounts every quarter together with interest on such delayed payments. In certain cases however the interest paid was calculated to be less than the amount found payable. In the absence of the details of month-wise delay in payment of VAT we cannot calculate such liability.

Further, in FY13 there were delays in payment of VAT on which no interest was paid. The amount approximately works out to be Rs. 1,020.

Area 3 VAT

In FY11 there were delays observed in payment of VAT. The interest liability could work to approx. Rs, 1,042.

In FY13 there were major delays observed in payment of VAT. There were also some payments made towards interest on such delayed payments. However the total interest liability net of such payments could work out to approx. Rs. 76,270.

Area 2 VAT

In FY13 there were significant delays observed in payment of VAT. There were also some payments made towards interest on such delayed payments. However the total interest liability net of such payments could work out to appox. Rs. 14,895.

Status of Statutory Dues

Provident Fund

Delays were observed in the payment of Provident Fund (PF) (employer’s and employees contribution) for the FY11 and FY12 and for employee’s contribution till June 2012. Further, the employer’s contribution was not paid from July 2012 till June 2013 and employees contribution from April – June 13 together amounting to Rs.9,66,306. However, interest on all such delayed payments as mentioned above and admin charges from April – June 2013 have not been considered.

The Management represented that the total amount payable on account of PF was Rs. 9,98,193.

ESIC

There were significant delays observed in payment of ESIC in FY11 and FY12. From Jan 13 to June 13 the Company has not paid ESIC amounting to Rs. 2,34,579. Further, interest on all such delayed payments as mentioned above have not been considered.

The Management represented that the total amount payable on account of ESIC was Rs. 2,53,066.

41

Page 45: Sample Due diligence report

Other Observations Fixed Assets Register

The fixed assets register was not found to be in the preferred format. Details pertaining to the date of additions to assets, name of supplier, date of purchase, units of purchase, identification codes etc., were not maintained. Considering a large value of the assets of XYZ are with third parties it is important to have a proper documentation of such assets.

Physical verification of assets

While we were informed that physical verification of assets was conducted, we were not provided any records. A large value of assets in the form of deep freezers lie with third parties. A physical verification is a requisite at least once a year to check if the value of any deep freezer has diminished. Appropriate action against the distributor could be immediately taken in such cases rather than waiting for the contract period to end.

Physical verification of inventories

We were informed that physical verification of inventories was conducted and a segregation between fast moving items and slow moving items was done. However, we were not provided any documents to support this claim. Our checks however did not reveal any significant mismatches. However, going forward, we suggest a thorough process of physical verification and segregation of the stock into fast and slow moving.

As 15 on gratuity and leave encashment not complied with

Accounting Standard 15 of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (‘ICAI’) requires the Company to make a provision in its books for gratuity and leave encashment payable from the 1st day of the employee joining the organisation. However, in case of XYZ such provisions were done only at times of payment. Considering the high cost of employees and a large number of employees having served a long time in the organisation, the liability payable towards gratuity and leave encashment would need to be calculated and a provision would need to be made into the books. 42

Page 46: Sample Due diligence report

Other Observations

No agreements for unsecured loans

The shareholders of XYZ have provided unsecured loans to the Company to the tune of INR 1.44 cr. However, there are no agreements in place which define the terms and conditions of such loans. In the absence of such agreements we suggest the Management of EFG to obtain a written statement from XYZ that such loans do not bear any interest or any other form of returns.

Finance team requirement

It was observed that while XYZ had a good production and marketing team, it was lacking in the finance department. This was reflective in the way critical records which could help take important decisions were maintained. The Management expressed that no support in terms of financial analyses was ever made available to it. Going forward, we suggest a finance team to be appointed to instill financial discipline in the company.

HR review

We suggest the Management of EFG to do an HR review to decide the requirement of the staff going forward. Our analyses shows that the number of staff maintained for administrative / support functions may be in excess of the requirements.

IDC lease agreement

The IDC agreement was entered into on 29th April 1999 for a lease period of 30 years. The total plot area was 4,836 sq mts with a permission to built up to 50% of the plot area.

Licence for Foods Safety and Standard Act 2006 has expired on 31 Dec 12 and has been applied for renewal

The annual returns under Payment of Bonus Act Standard of Weight and Measurement Act have not been filed.

Inference

47

• Based on our analysis there would entail a significant amount of initial investment to turn around XYZ. Considering that the sales in Q1FY14 have dropped drastically due to negative sentiments in the market, it could well be a challenge to revive the distribution network which is critical to XYZ.

• The IRR in the first 5 years would be negative and EFG can expect a payback period of not less than 7-8 years.

• The net asset value as on date is very low which does not give much security to EFG in case the expected turn around does not happen.

• In addition EFG would also need to pay off past accumulated liabilities and bear losses in the first year together with repayment of unsecured loan to the existing shareholders.

• Considering the above the following could be the investment envisaged to be done by EFG:

Investment envisaged by EFGINR FY14 FY15 FY16 FY17 FY18

Investment into the company 5,000,000 7,500,000 - 1,250,000 -

Investment to clear old dues 15,311,268 - - - -

Investment to clear unsecured loan of shareholders 14,378,328 - - - -

Losses incurred in FY14 6,656,060

Investment to replace old shareholders 5,061,666 - - - -

Total investment 46,407,322 7,500,000 - 1,250,000 -

Assumptions for Profitability projections P&L Head

Assumption Management Representation

MAS Take

Sales for FY 14 (April – Dec)

Sales for FY 14 have been extrapolated based on the sales achieved upto June and the average percentage these sales have formed in the past years of the total sales.

The Management feels that the sales can be improved with the infusion of funds to purchase deep freezers and invest into marketing

MAS has considered that it would take at least six months for all takeover formalities to be completed prior to fresh investment into deep freezers/ marketing.

Sales for FY 14 (Jan – Mar)

Sales for the period have been considered based on the average sale per deep freezer achieved in FY 13. A fresh investment into 200 deep freezers has been considered for this period.

- do - MAS has considered that investment into deep freezers would happen in a phased manner of 200 in the last quarter of FY 14, 200 in the first quarter of FY15 and 100 in the Second quarter of FY 15.

Sales FY15 Sales for the period have been calculated assuming that each freezer invested into (including old freezers) will generate sales of approximately INR 18K in Q1, 20K in Q2, 22K in Q3 and 22.5K in Q4

Management represented that they generally consider a target of INR 300 per day per deep freezer.

The target is a bit aggressive considering the past three years’ data, hence the same has been discounted by INR 14,000 to INR 90,000 which will be achieved gradually by Q4

Sales FY16 onwards Sales for FY16 have

been assumed to

meet the target of

INR 90,000 per deep

freezer p.a.,

thereafter increasing

at 12% p.a.

Management was not

able to provide any data

on growth rate

As per research, the ice cream

industry has been growing @

15% per annum for the last 3

years, additionally, Experts

estimate a growth rate of 12%

p.a. for the next 5 years.

Raw Material Cost For the FY 14, this

cost has been

assumed to be 50%

of the sales. Subsequently a 1-2%

drop in costs has

been assumed every

year.

Management

represented the cost to

be pegged at 45% of

sales, Management further represented that

through bulk purchase

and by introducing

“frozen Desserts” the raw

material cost could be further reduced to about

40% of sales.

Upon analysis and verification

through bills, the actual cost

was found to be 50% of sales.

A drop in prices due to bulk purchases is possible, however

the extent could not be

verified. MAS has assumed that

the cost could be reduced

from the present level of 50% to about 45%.

Direct Expenses This has been

assumed to remain

constant at 9% of

sales.

Management represents

that through the

introduction of newer

machinery, efficiency

would increase and

hence costs would go

down.

Since there was no substantial

evidence provided to the

extent of reduction of costs,

the direct costs have been

assumed as stable.

Employee Benefits Employee Benefits for FY

14 have been

considered the same as

FY 13 levels. There after

an increase of 15% p.a.

has been assumed

considering the expansion of distribution

network

Management

represented that

employee cost would

be reduced by at

least 20% due to

better machinery

being introduced.

The reduction in employee cost

would be offset by the

expansion of the distribution

network. Considering the

number of additions of deep

freezers, the strength of the

marketing/ distribution team would need to increase.

Administrative

Expenses

These expenses have

been considered to remain constant in FY14

and a 15% increase has

been considered

thereafter

N/a N/a

Sales and Distribution

Expenses

This has been assumed

to be directly

proportional to the

number of deep
