Company is strengthening its core operations to avoid delay and give better operational efficiency by implementing ERP. The ERP being implemented by Price Waterhouse Coopers would connect all its branch offices and plants with the central server in Kolkata Company started bundling its products in order to take on cut throat competition. i.e. on Rs. 5 per pen, Linc earned not more than a rupees profit. But, after the bundling, earnings per pen are Rs. 1.33 per pen (or a 33 per cent increase). The bundling offer saw Linc not just increase prices, on the one hand, but club pens in packs of three. A direct doubling of price would be steep and Linc would have lost its market share to its competitors. So, this strategy Linc pens worked out which will not only improve its market share along with the margins. Products under Rs. 5 have been discontinued and focus is on promoting the pack of three from Rs.. In the past the company endorsed Shahrukh Khan as brand ambassador for Linc and also Katrina Kaif to promote Uniball products in India. It has also inked sponsorship deals with IPL teams to enhance its visibility. Thus this positioning had made Linc one of the most preferred brands both domestically and internationally. Linc added three new products to its portfolio in 2013-14, comprising Zapp, Polco and Twinn, targeting the mass segment. The Company strategically phased unprofitable products out to concentrate on fast-moving products Cello had sales of approx 450 crores in 2008 and is growing at average of 10% CAGR then sales in 2014 comes out to be approx 700 crores Linc had sales of approx 175 crores in 2008 and is 314 crores in 2014, which gives 9% CAGR If we compare Linc with Cello, we can see that Linc is slowly taking over market share of Cello (see Table 1.6) Table 1.6 2008 2014 Linc Revenue 175 314 Cello Revenue 450 700 Linc revenue as ratio of Cello revenue 0.39 0.45 Company has ventured into the wooden pencil, geometry box and related stationery products. Company is also entering into the paper business, particularly the Note-Book Industry which is a huge market by itself. Pen industry is not Cyclical but recession proof, as we can see from the economic crisis in 2008. Instead they are in demand throughout the year and demand mostly increases during exam period of students and also during festive seasons like Diwali when they are used for Corporate gifting. 7
Concerns and Risks Plastic granules which is the key raw material for Linc Pen is dependent on crude prices. Now the crude prices seems to have stabilized, once the crude prices starts rising, it will severely impact the companys margins. Foreign currency fluctuations may impact the companys sales as any appreciation in the Indian currency will impact export sales of the company Low entry barriers exists as it is not a capital intensive industry Cannibalization of existing sales can happen with new products launches Stiff competition exists in the pen industry. Major Competitor is Celio, an unlisted entity which as 37% market share as compared to Linc which has 10% market share. Diversifying into unrelated business like in film production in 2011, the film did not do well, so the management accepted their mistake and now focusing on core business Companys inability to introduce innovative products may lead to stagnation in sales Distribution remains the challenge as this industry in India has a fragmented retail structure, with most customer spend going to very small, independent shops and kiranas Major issue Company faces is the Retailer power to influence customer choice which is extremely high in some areas where purchase involvement is low.
