    Company IntroductionCompany Introduction

    Engro Chemical Pakistan Limited is the second largest producer of Urea fertilizerin Pakistan. The company was incorporated in 1965 and was formerly ExxonChemical Pakistan Limited until 1991, when Exxon decided to divest their fertilizer

    business on a global basis and sold off its equity of 75% shares in our company. TheEmployees of Engro, in partnership with leading international and local financialinstitutions bought out Exxons equity and the company was renamed as EngroChemical Pakistan Limited. Engro is a public limited company listed on the StockExchanges of Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad.

    Engro accomplished significant progress not only in its base urea fertilizer businessbut also in diversification projects. Urea production was increased from an annualcapacity of 270,000 tons in 1991 to 850,000 tons in 2001. Further expansion plans are

    being developed to debottleneck plant capacity to 1.2 million tons in stages. Inaddition, Engro has over thirty years of experience of fertilizer marketing in Pakistanwith an elaborate dealer network.

    As part of our growth and diversification plans, we have established a $60 million50:50 Joint Venture company named Engro Vopak Terminal Limited in 1995,

    between Engro and Royal Vopak (formerly Royal Pakhoed), a Netherland basedcompany and one of the foremost terminal operators in the world. This joint venturecompany has built a modern Jetty & Terminal at Port Qasim, Karachi for handling and

    storage of bulk liquid chemicals, which was completed in 1997. This is a keyinfrastructure for the development of capital intensive chemical industry in the heavyindustrial zone of Port Qasim, Karachi.

    Engro has also formed another Joint Venture company with Mitsubishi and AsahiGlass of Japan named Engro Asahi Polymer & Chemicals Ltd. to develop aPolyvinyl Chloride (PVC) resin project at Port Qasim, Karachi, with an initialcapacity of 100,000 tons per year based on imported Vinyl Chloride Monomer. The

    project has been successfully completed and commenced production in November1999. The plant production is being marketed both in domestic and export marketunder the brand name SABZ. Engro has 50% equity in this $74 million venture.

    Construction of Engros 100,000 tons p.a. capacity NPK fertilizers plant at Port Qasimat a cost of US $10 million was completed in 2001. The plant is in production andconsiderably benefiting the countrys agriculture by providing balance nutrition toimprove farm yields. During the year 2004 the products generic name of NPK wasreplaced by Zarkhez.

    In April 2003 Engro acquired 51% intrest in the Automation & Control Division ofInnovative (Private) Limited, a Lahore (Pakistan) based company that provides

    process control industrial solutions in the knowledge based services sector. The joint

    Challenges and Issue Faced

    In the year 2008, Engros focus will be on flawless implementation of the significantgrowth initiatives in al businesses, viz., fertilizer, food, energy, chlor-vinyls, chemicalstorage and industrial automation. Engro has also put in place plans to continue tosource and retain quality people to sustain its growth ambitions.

    Urea demand is expected to be rebusting whilst phosphates demand is expected to beaffecting by high international prices.

    The Board would like to take the opportunity to express its appreciation to the dealers,customers and employees for their dedication throughout the year. The Board alsoacknowledges the support and corporation received from the Government, JointVenture, Partners, Bankers, Suppliers, Contractors and other Stakeholders.

    These are the following challenges and issues faced by the organization at starting:

    Shortage of irrigation waterBoth during the rabi (winter) and kharif(summer) seasons for crop sowing, which led

    to reduced farmer income. As a result, overall urea off-take fell by 1% to 4.0m tonswhereas demand for DAP (Di-Ammonium Phosphate) fertiliser dropped by 5% to1.2m tons. ECPL faced a marginal decline in urea volumes (0.6%) and a 17% declinein volume sales of imported DAP fertilizer. The sales drop in case of DAP isattributable to drought conditions and insufficient supply sourcing in a period ofuncertainty relating to GST levy in Pakistan. The Govt. imposed a 15% GST on theselling price of DAP and other fertilizers w.e.f. Sept 02, 2001.

    Increase in Gas PriceFertilizer Policy was announced in Aug 02 which maintained subsidy on feedstock(gas used as raw material - constituting 20% of COGS/ton) with fixed feedstock price

  • 7/30/2019 Strategies Engro Group Pakistan

    18/28

    22

    increases stipulated for the next 5 years. However, fuel stock (gas used for running theplant - constituting 40% of COGS/ton) prices would continue to be deregulated andadjusted every 6 months. During FYE 01, gas price increase was much lower ascompared to previous years as there was no increase in feedstock prices whilefuelstock went up by 15%.

    Start-up losses on NPK operationsECPL expanded into 100k NPK (blended fertilizer) plant, which came online in Apr01. However, initial teething problems limited sakes to 24k tons against productionof 31k tons. NPK business showed a loss of PKR 109m. However, the plant iscurrently operating at 80% of its design capacity and some reductions in operatingexpense have been achieved.

    Loss of ProductionECPLs urea production during the year was down by 2% to 790k tons on account ofcertain production issues which were significantly smoothened towards the end of theyear.

    Competitive Strategies

    Before formulation an effective strategy for getting competitive edge, the mangermust conduct competitive analysis. This involves assessing both environmental andorganizational factors influencing ability to compete effectively.

    This competitive situation could be find out with help of SWOT analysis:

    Strengths

    Strong, professional management (management practices & principlesinherited from Exxon Chemicals USA, after the management buyout in 1991).

    Subsidized gas pricing during the last 10 years has resulted in strongaccumulated reserves. Low gearing will provide financial strength to theCompany in coming years.

    50% joint venture, Engro Vopak, has completed fourth year of profitableoperations. Future dividend income will hedge against ECPLs core-businessrisk.

    Weakness

    While Engro Vopak is performing satisfactorily, deterioration in operatingresults of Engro Asahi could result in Asahi calling on financial support fromECPL.

    Engro Urea does not command the same market premium as competitor FaujiFertilizers product Sona. However, Sona urea is sold mainly in the Punjab

    province, whereas Engro has a strong niche in Sindh province.

    Opportunities

    New petrochemical projects will help improve Group profitability through 1)clear synergies, and 2) reduction in business risk through capturing a largersegment of the value-addition chain.

    Agriculture business projects like blended fertilizers, hybrid seeds etc.

    Threats

    Dumping of imported fertilizer in the local market. Government action is often

    protracted. During 1999, ex-Soviet states dumped huge quantities of urea inPakistan. Even though the government imposed 10% regulatory duty, it wastoo little and too late to be effective.

    Takeover by the Burewala Group. The takeover attempts may subside,however the management of Engro Chemicals may become too drawn into this

    battle while it continues, causing reduced focus on operations.

    Droughts directly affect demand. Engro urea sells primarily in southern part ofthe country where the droughts are more frequent.

    When we talk about our competitor in the market, our main competitor is FFC.

    FFC was incorporated in 1978 as a private limited company. This was a joint venturebetween Fauji Foundation (a leading charitable trust in Pakistan) and Haldor TopsoeA/S of Denmark. FFC-Jordan Fertilizer Company Limited is a joint venture betweenFFC and Jordan Phosphate Mines Co. Jordan.

    The largest urea manufacturing facility of Pakistan consisting of two ammonia/ureaunits owned by FFC is built at Goth Machhi in district Rahim Yar Khan. Goth Machhiis situated at a distance of 2 kms from the main Lahore-Karachi highway and isadjacent to the main railway line. The two plants are based on natural gas from MariGas Fields and have an annual designed production capacity of 1.3 million tons ofurea.FFC commenced commercial production of urea in 1982 with annual capacity of570,000 metric tons.

  • 7/30/2019 Strategies Engro Group Pakistan

    20/28

    22

    Through De Bottle Necking (DBN) program the production capacity of the existingplant increased to 695,000 metric tons per year.

    Production capacity was enhanced by establishing a second plant in 1993 with annualcapacity of 635,000 metric tons of urea.

    FFC participated as a major shareholder in a new DAPS/Urea manufacturing complexwith participation of major international/national institutions. The new company(FJFC) commenced commercial production with effect from January 01, 2000. Thefacility is designed to produce 551,000 metric tons of urea and 445,500 metric tons ofDAP.

    Fauji Fertilizer Company currently has 1,769 employees. With sales of 16.79 billionPakistan

    internationally. A number of

    projects involving backward

    & forward integration are

    under consideration.

    Setting up industrial units in

    the fields of petroleum

    refining, paper & pulp,

    mineral acid, & off-shore

    fertilizer manufacturing.

    Government policies

    In Mar 02, the Govt. imposed 15% GST on selling price of urea (PKR 6,660/ton)with the entire impact allowed to be passed on to the customer. In response to theabove, prices in fact, have increased by 5.7% since March which is consideredsufficient to protect margins.

    Given the decline in domestic fertilizer off-take, the Govt. has allowed export of0.23m tons of urea in order to reduce inventories. However, exports at current pricesare not a viable option. The local urea ex-factory price in FOB terms currently standsat US$ 120/ton. Add US$6-8 for local transportation to port and another US$20freight to Middle East. Thus, US$146-148/ton international price would be required tomake exports viable. However, Middle East bagged prices currently stand at US$ 112-115/ton.

    To date, the fertilizer industry in Pakistan has been subject to preferential treatment inthe form of subsidized gas prices. However, in line with IMF conditionality aimed atde-regulation, the Fertilizer Policy announced in Aug-01 envisages a gradualwithdrawal of subsidy offered to the industry
