Today in the interview management said that even with this rainfall we should expect revenue rise of 10-15%. Am I missing something? With the order book they have, shouldn’t they be expecting more growth if the rainfall is good? Sale of their products as well as the sale of their clients products should rise.
I think 10-15% growth mentioned should be for the agri space while CSM growth could be higher.

Nominee Gold: Finally competition at doorstep (Edelweiss report 5th May summary)
The Central Insecticide Board (CIB), in its recent meeting, granted
registration for indigenous manufacture of bispyribac sodium technical
and formulation to 2 players. We anticipate competitors to launch the
products soon. Consequently, PI Industries`s (PI) largest selling product,
Nominee Gold is likely to face heightened competition. Our stress test
analysis suggests our FY17/18E earnings faces downward risk of 8-10%
and RoE of 27-28% could moderate by 150-200bps going forward. We
believe current valuation factors in the impact to some extent and thus
downside looks limited. Maintain ‘BUY’.

Q4 Results announced. Very mediocre results. Net profit is higher due to lower tax.

PI Industries Q4 and FY16 results
Why lower tax? Need to wait for detailed press release which might be out soon.
- Board approved proposal of entering into a JV with M/s Mitsui Chemicals Agro Inc., Japan for the purpose of registering Mitsui products in India.
- Appointment of Mr. Ravi Narain (co-founded NSE in 1994) as an Additional Director on the Board of the Company.
- Commenced commercial production at third unit located at Sterling SEZ facility, Jambusar w.e.f Jan 11, 2016
Hopefully 15-20% sales growth will resume in FY17 considering the strongest El Nino in nearly 20 years is behind us now…

They are entering into a JV with Mitsui Chemicals and also incorporated name Solinnos Agro Sciences Pvt Ltd.
Some margin expansion has led to not bad a growth on Operating profit.
As @lustkills said, the reasons for lower tax should be watched. There maybe some tax benefits from Jambusar SEZ but they cant be so high.
These are good results on the operational front. I will look for amount of sales contributed by CSM. It will remain a 20% compounder for years to come.

-
Better tax planning on SEZ operations & extension of R&D operations

I agree…the results are much lower than expected. NP is up only due to lower Tax. Had tax been constant, we would have seen a lower PAT…

Expect 18-20% revenue growth in FY17: PI Industries.
Did anyone attend the concall today?
@idikasony, he mentioned 18-20% minimum. Let’s see how it unfolds.
Disclosure: Invested
All eyes are set on the first year of launch of generic version of PI’s key product Nominee Gold…although it’s a well known fact that it’s a 100 cr. + brand, but some industry guys put it at 200 cr. and therefore the impact of price reduction v/s volume growth is keenly watched.

All I can say is PI story keeps getting better with time. 2 dedicated plants already started and foray into pharma taking shape is a big positive.
In short term, EBITDA expansion and on top of that the lower tax are an icing on the yummy cake.
