SHORT HISTORY OF CASH FLOW

They travel places others may fear to go, and in the process they find the best way to get there.
Sometimes, they take a wrong turn and have to reassess their position; sometimes they stumble
on a shortcut no one imagined was available. Ultimately, however, they make the trip easier,
faster, and less risky for all who follow them.

Like most industries, the Cash Flow Industry has Pioneers, and while they rarely get credit for
their contributions, they are the ones who have made this industry what it is today. While they
did not necessarily identify and target all the debt instruments that now exist, some have
established the procedures used by others to recognize new debt instruments. Others created
practices that have allowed markets to flourish. Still others have set into motion the forces that
formed the current infrastructure and better defined the roles and relationships of the players.

Cash Flow Pioneers are individuals who blazed the trail alone in the beginning, or corporations
that maintained an aggressive approach to business for decades. It was these same innovators
who designed and established the innovative practices that the Cash Flow Industry uses today.
They blazed the trail that promises a bright future for all cash flow professionals.

The Cash Flow Industry in its current form is still young. Although it has matured significantly
in its short history, it is about to enter a period of dramatic and significant change. Because of its
youth, many of its Pioneers have yet to be identified. There are new trails to be cut, new ideas to
be formulated, and new products to be evaluated.

The American Cash Flow Association® believes in recognizing the leaders in the industry and
encouraging those would-be pioneers who may be concerned about the dangers on the road
ahead. Take heart in the stories told here. One person got his idea from a radio talk show, another
from an article in a business magazine. The future of the industry may be a small, insignificant
notice in tomorrow’s Wall Street Journal.

Cash flow professionals can be thankful that the industry’s pioneers are ready and waiting to
blaze the trail to the next great discover.

WHAT IS CASH FLOW:
A revenue or expense stream that changes a cash account over a given period. Cash inflows
usually arise from one of three activities - financing, operations or investing - although this also
occurs as a result of donations or gifts in the case of personal finance. Cash outflows result from
expenses or investments. This holds true for both business and personal finance.

An accounting statement called the "statement of cash flows", which shows the amount of cash
generated and used by a company in a given period. It is calculated by adding noncash charges
(such as depreciation) to net income after taxes. Cash flow can be attributed to a specific project,
or to a business as a whole. Cash flow can be used as an indication of a company's financial
strength.

OBJECTIVE OF STUDY:
The main objective of the summer training project report is to analysis the Cash position of the
company.

 To understand cash generation from operation activities.

 To know the changes in the Cash Position of the Company.

 To know the payment & Cash Collection of the Company.

 To know about the short term Liquidity of the Company.

 To understand the banking channel for smooth inflow & outflow.

 Tools & Models implemented to generated Liquidity.

Investor explains Cash Flow:


In business as in personal finance, cash flows are essential to solvency. They can be presented as
a record of something that has happened in the past, such as the sale of a particular product, or
forecasted into the future, representing what a business or a person expects to take in and to
spend. Cash flow is crucial to an entity's survival. Having ample cash on hand will ensure that
creditors, employees and others can be paid on time. If a business or person does not have
enough cash to support its operations, it is said to be insolvent, and a likely candidate for
bankruptcy should the insolvency continue.

11 VMS Gr.Noida
The statement of a business's cash flows is often used by analysts to gauge financial
performance. Companies with ample cash on hand are able to invest the cash back into the
business in order to generate more cash and profit.

Operating Cash flow:


The cash generated from the operations of a company, generally defined as revenues less all
operating expenses, but calculated through a series of adjustments to net income. The OCF can
be found on the statement of cash flows.

Also known as "cash flow provided by operations" or "cash flow from operating activities".

One method of calculated OCF is:

OCF=EBIT+DEPRECATION-TAXES

Revenue Mean:
When the net amount received (revenues less expenditures) falls short of the projected net
amount to be received. This occurs when the actual amount of revenue received and/or the actual
amount of expenditures do not correspond with predicted revenue and expenditure figures. This
is the opposite of a revenue surplus, which occurs when the actual amount exceeds the projected
amount.

Investopedia explains Revenue Deficit:


For example, Consider an organization with budgeted revenue of $325,000 and budgeted
expenditures of $200,000, which equates to a net amount of $125,000. During the fiscal year, the
organization's total revenue is actually $300,000, while its total expenditure is $195,000. The net
amount received by the organization is $105,000, which is $20,000 less than the projected
receipt of $125,000. Therefore, although the organization generated a positive net amount of
proceeds, it fell short of the projected amount, creating a revenue deficit.

TEN RULES OF CASH FLOW IN THE COMPANY
Cash flow is the lifeblood of all businesses. Learn the Cash Flow 101 Rules to free yourself from
money worries. Use the basic rules of to help you take control of your cash flow so you can
create the business you have always dreamed of.

1. Never Run Out of Cash. Running out of cash is the definition of failure in business. Make
the commitment to do what it takes so it doesn't happen to you.

2. Cash Is King. It's important to recognize that the basics of cash flow 101 are what keeps your
business alive. Manage it with the care and attention it deserves. It's very unforgiving if you
don't. Remember, cash is king, because no cash means no business.

3. Know the Cash Balance Now. What is your cash balance right now? It's absolutely critical
that you know exactly what your cash balance is. Even the most experienced person will fail if
they are making business decisions using inaccurate or incomplete cash balances. This is
fundamental cash flow 101. That's the reason why business failures are not limited to amateurs
or people new to the business world.

4. Do Today's Work Today. The key to keeping an accurate cash balance in your accounting
system is to do today's work today. When you do this, you will have the numbers you need -
when you need them.

5. Do the Work or Get Someone Else. Here is a simple rule to follow to make sure you have an
accurate cash balance on your books. You do the work or have someone else do it.

6. Don't Manage From the Bank Balance. The bank balance and the cash balance are two
different forms of cash. Rarely will the two ever be the same. Don't make the mistake of
confusing them.

It's futile and frustrating to attempt to manage your cash flow using the bank balance. It's a
prescription for failure. You reconcile your bank balance. You don't manage from it.

13 VMS Gr.Noida
7. Know Your Six Months Cash Balance. What do you expect your cash balance to be six
months from now? This one question will transform the way you manage your business and help
you pass cash flow 101.

This question really gets to the heart of whether you are managing your business or whether your
business is managing you.

8. Cash Flow Problems Don't Just Happen. You would be amazed at the number of small
businesses that fail because the owner did not see a cash flow problem in time to do something
about it. The key is to always be able to answer the question - what do I expect my cash balance
to be six months from now?

9. Have Cash Flow Projections. Cash flow projections are the key to making wise and
profitable business decisions. They give you the answer to the all-important question from Rule
# 7. It's impossible to run your business properly without them.

10. Take Care of Customers. Eliminate your cash flow worries so you are free to do what you
do best-taking care of clients and making more money. Use these cash flow 101 rules to free
yourself from cash flow worries. That way you can focus all your time and talents where you can
make the most difference in your business.

No more wasted time worrying about what's going on with your cash flow. Instead, you can
focus your unique talents and abilities each day on ways to grow your business and make more
income each year. That is a recipe for success and wealth creation.

14 VMS Gr.Noida
Seven Simple Rule of Increase Cash Flow
Although your income statement might show a healthy profit, it doesn't amount to a hill of beans
if you have no cash flow.

One of the biggest mistakes made by new home business owners is allowing clients and
customers to buy now and pay later. In other words, extending credit.

Credit is for banks and large corporations, not for you as a home-based entrepreneur. Cash flow
is the lifeblood of your business. Without it, your business will wither and die regardless of how
many sales you've made or how much money is owed to you.

Cash flow represents the amount of money coming in to your business through services rendered
and products sold, and money going out to cover expenses and production costs.

Your primary responsibility as a home-based business owner is to ensure the flow is consistent
with more money coming in than going out so a pool starts to form to hold the overflow. This
overflow is what allows you to make early payments so you can benefit from vendor discounts,
to take advantage of special deals, capitalize on newfound opportunities, and easily cover
unexpected emergencies. As soon as cash flow fails to produce the surplus funds you need,
challenges arise and stress and overwhelm quickly follow.

Integrate these seven simple rules to your operating strategies and enjoy the benefits of a steadily
growing cash pool.

1. Request payment prior to delivering your product or service. If your service is delivered
over an extended period of time and asking for a one-time payment in advance isn't realistic,
divide the payment into segments and request payment in advance of each new time frame.

For example, if you provide weekly house cleaning, consider requesting payment at the
beginning of each month in advance of providing your services - or suggest three or six months
payment in advance and offer a discount as an incentive. A mere 10 percent discount over a
three-month period could put an extra $100 or more into your client's pocket. Many will jump at
that deal.

2. Pay every bill on time to avoid late payment charges and earlier only if special payment
discounts apply.

15 VMS Gr.Noida
As a hair stylist working primarily with cancer patients, imagine spending one thousand dollars a
month on wigs. If the supplier offers 2/10, net 30 as payment terms, you will save two percent by
paying your invoice within ten days. That might only be $20, but over a year, it adds up to $240.

Take advantage of this incentive with every supplier that offers it and you could keep thousands
of dollars in your business that you would otherwise have spent.

3. Deposit payments as soon as you receive them. Instead of making one or two trips to the
bank each month, make them daily or weekly. Letting checks lie around increases the risk of
loss. Also, go to a teller when making your deposit. Using an ATM machine removes any
evidence you deposited real cash or checks. An employee or technical error or internal theft
could create problems you simply don't need.

4. Use a business credit card whenever possible for travel, meals, and minor expenses. This
leaves more cash in your hands and defers payment. Using a card that awards travel miles also
helps you cut future travel costs. I've enjoyed cruises and free flights to business conferences
thanks to air miles.

5. Create continuity sales. Build a product or service into your business that your client could
use on a continual basis. For example, if you run a bookkeeping business and your clients
struggle with cash flow, recommend bank reconciliation services every month.

Many clients hand a box of receipts to their bookkeeper at the end of each year and cross their
fingers hoping they did well. Helping your clients understand exactly where they are each and
every month is an exceptional service that many will jump at. One client at $30 a month would
give you $360. Ten clients at the same amount, paid in advance would give you $3,600 cash at
the start of the year.

6. Create something that allows you to do the work once, but profit from over and over
again. For example, many of today's business owners are creating e-books (electronic books)
and audio recordings sharing valuable tips, information and knowledge that improve the health,
happiness and prosperity of others.

Selling electronic products online removes production costs and provides a steady flow of funds
into your business.

7. Invest your overflow. Once you have built a comfortable overflow, consider investing some
of it to make it grow even faster for you. Letting a large sum of money sit in your bank account

16 VMS Gr.Noida
does nothing to accelerate growth. Talk to an investment professional and find out how you can
make that money work for you.

Important of Cash Flow


When planning the short- or long-term funding requirements of a business, it is more important
to forecast the likely cash requirements than to project profitability etc. Whilst profit, the
difference between sales and costs within a specified period, is a vital indicator of the
performance of a business, the generation of a profit does not necessarily guarantee its
development, or even the survival.

Cash Flow Vs Profit:

Sales and costs and, therefore, profits do not necessarily coincide with their associated cash
inflows and outflows. While, a sale may have been secured and goods delivered, the related
payment may be deferred as a result of giving credit to the customer. At the same time, payments
must be made to suppliers, staff etc., cash must be invested in rebuilding depleted stocks, new
equipment may have to be purchased etc. For further information on the cash cycle and working
capital,

17 VMS Gr.Noida
Calculating Cash Flow

Normally, the main sources of cash inflows to a business are receipts from sales, increases in
bank loans, proceeds of share issues and asset disposals, and other income such as interest
earned. Cash outflows include payments to suppliers and staff, capital and interest repayments
for loans, dividends, taxation and capital expenditure.

Net cash flow is the difference between the inflows and outflows within a given period. A
projected cumulative positive net cash flow over several periods highlights the capacity of a
business to generate surplus cash and, conversely, a cumulative negative cash flow indicates the
amount of additional cash required to sustain the business.

Cash flow planning entails forecasting and tabulating all significant cash inflows relating to
sales, new loans, interest received etc. and then analyzing in detail the timing of expected
payments relating to suppliers, wages, other expenses, capital expenditure, loan repayments,
dividends, tax, interest payments etc. The difference between the cash in- and out-flows within a
given period indicates the net cash flow. When this net cash flow is added to or subtracted from
opening bank balances, any likely short-term bank funding requirements can be ascertained.

18 VMS Gr.Noida
Planning to Project Cash Flow
 Before using a model for short-term cash flow forecasting, a manager or entrepreneur
should:
 Decide the central purpose of the exercise (internal planning and control, negotiate a loan
etc.).
 Identify the target audience (directors, bank manager etc.)
 Set the time intervals and horizon (e.g. monthly for twelve months)
 Sort out the level of detail required.
 Check that all the necessary key assumptions and data are to hand and have been
adequately researched.
 Compile opening balances for all items which will involve cash flows within the
forecasting period.
 Think through the likely impact of the critical assumptions on the cash flow projections.
If necessary, prepare preliminary forecasts manually to confirm their overall direction
and consider the underlying strategic issues relating to sales, funding, costs, stocks etc.
As a guide, sales forecasts and debtor & creditor terms are likely to have the most
profound impacts on short-term cash flows.

Planning Pitfalls When Forecasting Cash Flow:

When preparing cash flow projections, be aware of the dangers of:

 Overstating sales forecasts


 Underestimating costs and delays likely to be encountered
 Ignoring historic trends or performances by debtors etc.
 Making unduly-optimistic assumptions about the availability of bank loans, credit, grants,
equity etc.
 Seeking spurious accuracy whilst failing to recognize matters of strategic importance

19 VMS Gr.Noida
These problems can arise as the result of a lack of foresight or knowledge, or because of
excessive optimism. They can lead to under-estimation of the cash and other resources required
sustaining or developing a business with potentially disastrous consequences.

Way to Improving Cash Flow


Once the cash flow projections have been prepared, they should be critically examined and used
as a management tool to control and improve the business's expected cash position. Issues which
might be examined include the following:

1. Increase sales (particularly those involving cash payments).

2. Reduce direct and indirect costs and overhead expenses.

3. Defer discretionary projects which cannot achieve acceptable cash paybacks (e.g. within
one year???).

4. Increase prices especially to slow payers.

5. Review the payment performances of customers - involve sales force.

6. Become more selective when granting credit.

7. Seek deposits or multiple stage payments.

8. Reduce the amount/time of credit given to customers.

9. Bill as soon as work has been done or order fulfilled.

10. Improve systems for billing and collection.

11. Use the 80/20 rule to control inventories, receivables and payables.

12. Improve systems for paying suppliers.

13. Generate regular reports on receivable ratios and aging.

14. Establish and adhere to sound credit practices - train staff.

15. Use more pro-active collection techniques.

20 VMS Gr.Noida
16. Add late payment charges or fees where possible.

17. Increase the credit taken from suppliers.

18. Negotiate extended credit from suppliers.

19. Make prompt payments only when worthwhile discounts apply.

20. Reduce inventory (stock) levels and improve control over work-in- progress.

21. Sell off or return obsolete/excess inventory.

22. Utilize factoring, or discount facilities, to accelerate receipts from sales.

23. Defer or re-stage all capital expenditure.

24. Use alternative financing methods, such as leasing, to gain access to the use (but not
ownership) of productive assets.

25. Re-negotiate bank facilities to reduce charges.

26. Seek to extend debt repayment periods.

27. Net off or consolidate bank balances.

28. Sell off surplus assets or make them productive.

29. Enter into sale and lease-back arrangements for productive assets.

30. Defer dividend payments.

31. Raise additional equity.

32. Convert debt into equity.

OPERATING CASH FLOW:

The group’s free operating cash flow was -921 million euros in 2008, compared with -1.985
billion euros in 2007. Several factors explain this change:
a decrease in company acquisitions, net of disposals, which came to +127 million euros in
2008 (primarily due to the contribution to cash when Suez took a stake in Georges Besse II),
compared with -1.818 billion euros in 2007, the year UraMin was acquired;
an increase in gross Capex, excluding company acquisitions, which went from -1.110 billion

21 VMS Gr.Noida
euros in 2007 to -1.623 billion euros in 2008;
practically stable operating working capital requirement, at -451 million euros, despite the
reconstitution of uranium and SWU inventories in the Front End division and the increase in
working capital requirement in the Transmission & Distribution division, in line with
business growth;
a drop in EBITDA, which went from 1.335 billion euros in 2007 to 1.181 billion euros in
2008, primarily due to expenses recognized on the OL3 contract.

Operating cash flow by division:

______________________________________________
1. Decision Making:
 I always like to look on the optimistic side of life, but I am realistic enough to know that
life is a complex matter.

22 VMS Gr.Noida
 Keep it simple, stupid.
 I would not give a fig for the simplicity this side of complexity, but I would give my life
for the simplicity on the other side of complexity.
 Stick to the knitting.
 Every decision you make is a mistake.
 For every complex problem there is an answer that is clear, simple, and wrong.

2. Investment:
 Never give anyone the advice to buy or sell shares, because the most benevolent price of
advice can turn out badly.
 No price is too low for a bear or too high for a bull.
 Do you know the only thing that gives me pleasure? It's to see my dividends coming in.
 No one was ever ruined by taking a profit.
 Cut your losses and let your profits run.

3. Dreams & Visions:

 Vision is the art of seeing things invisible.


 Myths are public dreams, dreams are private myths.
 Dreams are necessary to life.
 If one advances in the direction of his dreams, one will meet with success unexpected in
common hours.
 The very essence of leadership is that you have to have vision. You can't blow an
uncertain trumpet.

4. Making Progress:

 There is nothing more difficult...than to take the lead in the introduction of a new order of
things.
 If you want truly to understand something, try to change it.
 Do not follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a
trail.
 You cannot travel on the path until you become the path itself.
 There is no top. There are always further heights to reach.

23 VMS Gr.Noida
5. Taxes:

 The avoidance of taxes is the only intellectual pursuit that still carries any reward.

 The difference between tax avoidance and tax evasion is the thickness of a prison wall.
 We don't pay taxes. The little people pay taxes.
 The art of taxation consists in so plucking the goose as to obtain the largest amount of
feathers with the least possible amount of hissing.
 Taxing is an easy business. Any projector can contrive new compositions, any bungler
can add to the old.

6. Cash:
 Cash flow is the movement of money in and out of a business.
 Happiness is a positive cash flow.
 Yesterday is a cancelled cheque. Tomorrow is a promissory note. Today is cash.
 Ah, take the Cash in hand and waive the Rest.
 Whoever has the gold makes all the rules.
 Revenue is vanity....margin is sanity....cash is king.
 Profit is an illusion, cash flow is fact.
 Profits are an opinion, cash is a fact

and risk issues within the project, to monitor and challenge the output of the same project team
and to support the decision making process.
The controller will gain knowledge in all aspects of his project and this will include:
- The contract
- The cost model
- The risk profile and process
- The project management
- The industrial process
- The management structure
- The systems in supporting the project
- The foreign exchange requirements
- The structure of a project and its suppliers within SAP
The project controller should align him/herself to the activities of the project manager and
through an all round knowledge of the project, put him/her self in a position to present the status
of the project on behalf of the project manager when needed. The controller will however remain
independent of the project enabling him to always report a true and fair view as to the health of
the project.
Moreover, the position of project controller should be seen as an essential part of the training
plan for any person looking to take on the role of project manager.

Specific Areas of Responsibility:

1. Cost Model/Schedule, P3.

Ensure its integrity and coherence with data held within SAP.
This will be achieved by a thorough understanding of the systems used to capture the actual
(SAP) and the CTC's (project plan).
In addition, the corporate reporting tool Cascade must be mastered to be able to present a
complete project model.
The controller must challenge all inputs to assure their validity and appropriateness. This will
involve a comparison of actual to what was forecast in the project plan and a challenging of
plans with regard to past performance, workload profiles, dependencies, risk profiles, contractual
requirements etc

26 VMS Gr.Noida
2. Risk and Exposure

Monitor the risk process to ensure that exposures are reported and managed appropriately.
This will be done by a review of the stability and sensitivity of the assumptions made in the plan,
the potential exposure to the project and/or the Company and the adequacy of the mitigation
plans aimed at reducing this exposure.
The risk process should be challenged to ensure that exposures are articulated and addressed in a
timely and appropriate fashion. A process should be in place to monitor and prioritise risks and
the subsequent mitigation plans.
Risk mitigation plans should be included in the project plan and the controller has a role in
ensuring that the exposure and cost of mitigation is fully understood and available for
management consideration.

3. Bidding Activities

To provide expert assistance to the bid manager in creating a cost model, identifying its
sensitivities and drivers and therefore its inherent risk.
Generic models should be created within Suretrak as they currently are in ECOS. The controller,
who will be the expert on live projects should be well positioned to work on bids. Risks based on
assumptions in the models will help generate a check list for the negotiators when dealing with
the customer.

Qualifications and/or Skills

Essential: Scheduling using P3/PMv6, Project management environment, Pro-active approach,


good communication & analysis skills.
Desirable: Engineering background and a fast leaner.

COST ESTIMATION PACKAGE USAGE BY PROJECT
CONTROLS:

The cost estimation package is developed primarily for establishing the project budget
and for providing the appropriate documentation and justification for a funding request.
Once the project is funded, this package is not filed away. It becomes the baseline or
target against which the performance of the project/program can be controlled and
compared. By comparing the baseline with the actual performance, deviations from the
baseline can be identified and corrected before they cause an impact on the
project/program.

Technical Scope:

As a project develops, some portion of the technical scope may be revised. If there
is a deviation from the original technical scope, a change order is initiated and a
revision to the original estimated cost usually occurs. Project control can use the
detailed technical scope as well as the assumptions made by the estimator when
assessing the cost impact of a change in scope. The detailed scope is used as a
baseline, and all changes to it are documented by project controls.

Schedule:

The schedule in the cost estimation package represents the same timeframe as the
estimate. Therefore, any change in this schedule could affect the cost of the
project/program. Thus, management can compare the baseline schedule to the
actual schedule to identify scheduling problems or changes and any associated cost
updates.

MAIN RESPONSIBILITIES:

To establish and transmit down payment invoices to the customer, in compliance with the
contract , and to manage the internal administrative part of the project (OTP opening ,

The consortium formed by AREVA’s Transmission and Distribution division and PT


Multifabrindo Gemilang, Indonesian electrical equipments contractor, has been awarded a €120
million contract by PT PLN (Persero), the Indonesian Public Electric utility.

Through this contract, AREVA will modernize the Indonesian network in line with the “10 GW
Generation program1” launched in 2006. This turnkey contract includes delivery of several high
voltage substations as well as underground electrical cables, in order to distribute power to the
main Java cities (Jakarta, Bandung and Surabaya).

This project supports the government’s ambitious program to increase access to electricity for
Indonesians within reliability and continuity of power supply.

“In a highly competitive market environment, we are delighted to contribute to this major project
which represents a great step towards the modernization of the Indonesian electrical network”,
says Michel Augonnet, Executive Vice President for the Systems business unit of AREVA T&D.

AREVA’s Transmission and Distribution (T&D) division has won a prestigious order for 2x220
kV Conversion Substations from Hindalco Industries Limited, India’s major Aluminum
Producer. This order involves design, supply, installation and commissioning of 5 x 100 kA,

43 VMS Gr.Noida
1650 V DC rectifier substations, at each location of Bargwan (Singrauli-Madhya Pradesh) and
Lapanga (Sambalpur-Orissa). Both substations will be delivered to Hindalco by 2011.

AREVA’s Transmission and Distribution (T&D) division announced today that it has signed an
exclusive partnership contract with A. Eberle GmbH & Co. KG Nuremberg in order to provide
studies and services using the A. Eberle Collapse-Prediction-System (CPSys). This agreement
builds upon more than ten years of professional collaboration between the two companies.

A. Eberle is a German company focused on developing solutions for measuring, controlling and
recording tasks for transformers and arc suppression coils.
The Collapse-Prediction-System from A. Eberle is a patented tool which offers a unique way of
providing off-line network stability analyses by recording all small signals emitted at a variety of
frequencies as well as on-line instability predictions by detecting bad dampings and divergence
very early. It allows users to analyze their network using highly accurate measurements, in
addition to traditional model-based simulations. In fact, the level of the accuracy is so high that
users can detect even hidden stability phenomena, and furthermore much quicker and sooner
than they could using any other existing solution.

Under the terms of the partnership, AREVA T&D will have global exclusivity on using the
Collapse-Prediction-System to perform a complete system analysis for its customers, in order to
identify not just what their network instabilities are, but also exactly where they are and what is
causing them. As a result of this sort of study, AREVA T&D and A. Eberle will be able to
recommend a perfectly-suited solution to fix exactly what is wrong.

The group offers its customers reliable technological solutions for non CO2 emitting power
generation and electricity transmission and distribution.
The group is the world leader in nuclear power and the only company to cover all industrial
activities in this field.
AREVA's businesses help meet the 21st century's greatest challenges: making energy available
to all, protecting the planet, and acting responsibly towards future generations.

STRATGEY & ORGASATION:


Enable everyone to have access to ever cleaner, safer and more economical energy": that is the
goal we have set for ourselves at AREVA.

The AREVA group offers solutions for CO2-free power generation and electricity transmission
and distribution.

AREVA’s strategy is to leverage its integrated model to strengthen its position as world leader.
The group is present in every segment of the nuclear value chain and can provide solutions to
meet the strategic challenges facing its utility customers. AREVA’s integrated model is setting
the standard for the market and is imitated by many competitors. Toshiba/Westinghouse, General
Electric and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries have gradually deployed a strategy for partial
integration of the value chain through acquisitions, equity interests and/or strategic partnerships.
Russia’s approach is even more representative: the Russian government recently combined all of
its nuclear fuel cycle operations under the umbrella of a single entity,

By achieving these objectives, the group will maintain a strong balance sheet, high earnings,
and solid cash flows. It is the group’s policy to maintain a strong balance sheet. This is a
guarantee of security for its customers and enables the group to enter into major contracts,
especially in connection with new reactor sales. It is also essential to the success of its businesses
and to the financing of future investments.
AREVA has set up provisions for its end-of-life-cycle liabilities and created a dedicated financial
portfolio to cover all of its estimated end-of-life-cycle expenses when they come due. A special
committee of the Supervisory Board monitors the dedicated asset portfolio and our coverage of
future end-of-lifecycle expenses. Maintaining strong and recurring operating cash flow allows
the group to fund its capital expenditures and create value for its shareholders. Towards that end,
the group will continue to improve productivity and expects to achieve double-digit operating
margin by 2012.

These main lines of action are the foundation of AREVA’s development strategy.

TESTIMONIALS:

AREVA T&D as a new graduate from Erlangen University, and I am now working in the
Research and Development function in Regensburg. The first time that I heard about AREVA
T&D was during a campus management day at the University. I was instantly attracted by the
international opportunities on offer. In Regensburg we work every day with people from around
the globe. As a testing engineer, I have already been to Arnhem in the Netherlands to complete
tests, I will be going to Milan in the near future, and following that I will travel in Europe, and
possibly also to China to complete more testing there. I received a friendly welcome from all the
team when I arrived in Regensburg, and can already really see the benefits of working for such
an international company.

AREVA in June 2007. From Day 1, part of my time has been dedicated to integration activities.
These have ranged from attending an international management course run by the AREVA
University in Washington, USA, to visiting production units in Brazil, Turkey and Germany. The
working environment is very friendly and receptive. This has been really important for me, as it
has helped me build relationships with my colleagues and achieve results in my work.

SMART GRID:
Meeting the challenges of the future, now

 ensuring better grid reliability.

 improving network stability to prevent blackouts and maximize availability of power,


while helping to integrate micro-grid generation
 reducing environmental impact, primarily through reduced CO2 emissions, the
integration of renewable energy sources onto the grid and the development of
“greener” products
 And increasing energy efficiency, to enable utilities to operate their assets closer to the
limit, reduce equipment losses and optimize generation portfolio.

In effect, electrical grids are now going through the technological revolution that we experienced
10 years ago with the Internet and telecommunications boom. They need to deliver more energy,
with greater flexibility, and in a more complex environment - yet with the same infrastructure -
going from today's one-way centralized electricity network towards a dynamic and bidirectional
flow of energy and data. They integrate more intelligence at all levels, meaning more renewable
energy sources, UHV solutions, smarter distribution, micro-grids' emergence, storage solutions,
consumer engagement to name just a few.

AREVA T&D has anticipated these changes and launched an ambitious innovation program
that offers the first solutions now. We are already the world leader in Energy Management
Systems and we are doubling our investments in order to become the market leader for
'Smarter Grids' - through smarter teamwork and smarter technologies.

its April 28, 2009 research report.

“Areva T&D India posted a strong Top-line growth of 66.9% to Rs 845 crore (Rs 506 crore) for
1QCY2009, which was ahead of our expectations. On the Operating front, Areva T&D reported
a sharp decline in EBITDA Margins by 390bp to 12.9% (16.8%). This was primarily due to the
high raw material costs, which increased by a substantial 880bp to 72.1% (63.3%) of Net Sales.”

“In the current challenging scenario, several headwinds emerging due to the unfavourable
macro-economic environment are taking its toll on the entire Capital Goods Sector including
Areva T&D. Besides, there is heightened competitive pressure in the market with management
also admitting price undercutting by some players to win over the orders. At the current price of
Rs 201, the stock is quoting at a P/E of 18.5x and 15.2x CY2009E and CY2010E EPS
respectively, which we believe is expensive. Against the backdrop of an unfavourable broader

DISTRIBUTION COMPANIES:

64 VMS Gr.Noida
Areva, the French power major, on Friday said the proposed sale of its power transmission and
distribution division world over will not lead changes in operations of its Indian arm - Areva
T&D India, which will continue with its current market strategies.

The sale will not involve a separate and independent sale of Areva T&D India. The shares in
Areva T&D India Ltd, currently held by Areva T&D, would be transferred directly to the new
shareholder," he said.

The statement said that the sale will not involve delisting of Areva T&D India and that the
company will not be dismantled.

"Areva T&D will continue to follow its current market strategies in India and will comply with
all regulations applicable to the Indian arm," he said.

The sell-off rumours of Areva's transmission and distribution arm hit the market in May when
Joe Kaesar, CFO of Siemens, said the company would like to buy out Areva's T&D division in
case the French company approaches it.

Since then, there were no major developments until recently when Areva T&D India, in response
to media reports, informed the BSE on Wednesday that the group's supervisory board had
decided it to put its T&D business on the block to finance the group's long-term financial needs.
Siemens and Alstom, are tipped to be the frontrunners to lap up Areva T&D, which has a
turnover of 5 billion euros and 31,000 employees.

"The most logical choice of a buyer would be Siemens or Alstom, but some Chinese companies
could also be in the reckoning," said an analyst.

The Indian arm will be a strategic boost to whichever company buys the transmission division, as
it has some big plans for India.

DIRECT MARKETING:

Areva T&D India has secured an order worth Rs 110 crore from the West Bengal State
Electricity Transmission Company for 400kV substation at Kharagpur.

The contact job includes design, engineering and supply, erection and commissioning of large
power transformers, 400/220/132 kV breakers, automation system with control and relay panels
and instrument transformers (CT/CVT/Wave Trasps). The order is expected to be completed in
30 months.

65 VMS Gr.Noida
Areva T&D India has won an order from Power Grid Corporation of India Ltd (PGCIL) for two
500 MVA power transformers.

These 400 KV 3-phase class transformers will help PGCIL to augment capacities of their 400
KV Substations at Malerkotla and Patiala in Punjab. Both transformers are scheduled to be
delivered by third quarter of 2010.

PRICING POLICY:

AREVA’s Transmission and Distribution Division (T&D), one of the world’s leading suppliers
of products, systems and services for the electricity market, just announced its new pricing policy
for power transformers.

AREVA T&D will systematically propose to its customers to index the price of its transformers
on an escalation formula, reflecting the variations in raw material costs (magnetic steel, mild
steel, copper and oil). This will help avoid speculating on future raw material costs and ensure a
true correlation between the prices proposed by AREVA T&D for its transformers and their
actual cost.

The new pricing proposal follows an unprecedented rise in raw material costs over the last 18
months, resulting in an increase in prices for all types of transformers and reactors manufactured
by AREVA T&D.

PROMOTIONAL TOOLS:

AREVA T&D is in the electricity transmission and distribution business. To market these
products AREVA searched for an innovative promotional tool to differentiate itself from the
competition, while simulating the benefits of having physical hardware present on a booth at
events, conferences and exhibitions across the world.

In consultation with AREVA T&D, Virtalis’ Development Team designed and built a virtual
showroom showing the Company’s entire product range. Drawing on effects from Star Trek’s
teleportation system, the Team designed the showroom so the various pieces of equipment can
be beamed in and interrogated at their actual scale. Literature mounted on the walls of the
showroom can be read, giving a background to each product. Virtalis then moved on to create a
series of virtual AREVA installations for potential customers to explore. These include

66 VMS Gr.Noida
electricity sub-stations in an urban setting, a wind farm in its landscape and a series of different
systems set on islands. VR is also used to demonstrate innovations in AREVA.

Opportunities and Threats:

Opportunities:

In spite of the global financial Crisis, project in T&D sector were able to organize funds to keep
the growth program going. Major success in this direction was achieved by Power Grid and
NTPC, whose bonds were oversubscribed. Power Grid has shown significant progress in teams
of implementation of 765KV project in India. It is expected that several 765kv sub-station
projects will be awarded during the year 2009.

Yours Company was also successful in bidding and winning business opportunities like eBOP
(Electrical Balance of Plant) projects, opening a new area of business for your company. With
the ambitious plans of power generation capacity addition there are many such project in the
pipeline.

Threats:

Although the Government funded projects are moving ahead, the major section of the industry
such as oil & gas is affected due to this global financial crisis. Price of commodities have
dropped preventing investment in the Industrial Segment.

Progress of three mega power projects and many other generation projects which involve private
funding are required to be monitored very closely.

The realty sector and commercial buildings is under pressure and witnessed negative growth.
With actions taken by the Government, the scenario has started to show improvement. The
secondary distribution business is linked with this sector evolves in the near future.

HUMAN RESOURCE DETAILS
“Human Resource Management function that helps managers recruits select, train and develop
members for an organization. Obviously, HRM is concerned with the people’s dimension in
organizations

In all business concerns, there is one common element. I.e. HUMAN RESOURCE. Work force
of an Organization is one of the most important inputs of components. It is said that people are

68 VMS Gr.Noida
our single most important assets. Because of the unique importance of HUMAN RESOURCE
and its complexity due to ever changing psychology, behaviour and attitudes of men and women
at work, personnel function, i.e., manpower management function is becoming increasingly
specialized. The personnel function or system can be broadly defined as the management of
people at work- management of managers and management of workers. Personnel function is
particularly interested in personnel relationship and interaction of employees-human relations.

In a sense, management is personnel administration. Management is the development of people,


and not mere direction of material resources. Human capital is the greatest asset of a business
enterprise. The essential ingredient of management is the leadership and direction of people.
Each manager of people has to be his own personnel man. Personnel management is not
something you really turn over to personnel department staff.

DEFINITIONS:

According to Edward Flippo “ Personnel management organizing, directing and controlling of


the procurement, development, compensation, integration, maintenance and separation of human
resources to the end that individual, organizational and societal objectives are accomplished.”

“Personnel planning are the process by which an organization ensures that is has the right
number and kind of people, at right places, at the right time, capable of effectively and efficiently
completing those tasks that will help the organization achieve its overall objectives.”

MANPOWER PLANNING:

Human Resource Planning is the process by which an organization ensures that it has the right
number and kind of people, at the right place, at the right time, capable of effectively and
efficiently competing those tasks that will help the organization achieve its overall objectives.
Human Resource Planning translates the organization’s objectives and plans into the number of
workers meet those objectives. Without a clear-cut planning, estimation of an organization’s
human resource need is reduced to mere guesswork.

FINANCIAL DETAILS
IMPORTANCE OF FINANCE:

Finance is regarded as the life blood of a business enterprise. This is because in the modern
money oriented economy. Finance is the one of the basic foundation of all kind of electronic
activity. It is the master key which provides access to the entire source for being employed in
manufacturing and merchandizing activities. It has rightly been said the business needs money to
make more money. However it is also true that money begets more money, only when it is
properly managed. Hence, efficient management of every business enterprise is closely linked
with efficient management of its finance.

MEANING OF BUSINESS FINANCE:

In general finance may be defined as the provision of money at the time it is wanted. However,
as a management function it has a special meaning. Finance function may be defined as the
procurement of funds and their effective utilization. Some of the authoritative definitions are as
follows:

“Business finance is that business activity which is concerned with the acquisition and
conservation of capital funds in meeting financial needs and overall objectives of far business
enterprise.”

“Business finance can broadly be defined as the activity concerned with planning rising,
controlling and administrating of the funds used in the business.”

MEANING OF FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT:

From the various definition of the term business finance given above, it can be conclude that the
term business finance mainly involves, rising of funds and their effective utilization keeping in
view the overall objectives of the firm. This requires great caution and wisdom on the part of

74 VMS Gr.Noida
management. The management makes use of various financial techniques, devices, etc. For
administrating the financial affairs of the firm in the most effective and efficient way. Financial
management, therefore, means the entire gamut of managerial efforts devoted to the management
of finance both its sources and uses of the enterprise.

According to somloman “financial management is concerne4d with the efficient use of an


important economic resource, namely, capital funds.” Phillipppatus has given a more elaborate
definition of the term financial management. According to him “financial management is
concerned with the managerial decisions that result in the acquisition and financing of long-term
and short-term credits for the firm. As such it seals with the situations that require selection of
specific assets (or combination of assets), the selection of specific liability (or combination of
liabilities) as well as the problem of size and growth of an enterprise. The analysis of these
decisions is based on the executed inflows and outflow of funds and their effects upon
managerial objectives.

Thus, financial management is mainly concerned with proper management of funds. The finance
manager must see that the funds are procured in a manner that the risk, cost and control
consideration are properly balanced in a given situation and there is optimum utilization of
funds.
