Background on the Textile Industry
January 2005 – global markets with textile and apparel

Market liberalization liberalized when World Trade Organization’s
Arrangement on Textiles and Clothing expired
World textile and apparel exports projected to grow from $166

billion (2000) to $248 billion (2008)
Expected market trends China – will grow significantly (CAGR +17%) increasing its
overall share of world exports from 22% to 50%
Rest of Asia – stagnation (CAGR -1%) share from 32% to 21%
Rest of the world – stagnation share from 46% to 29%
Required competencies Success = Low input cost base + high productivity + improved
for globalizing textile quality + transportation infrastructure for fast shipment
industry

India – Country Background
• Sixth largest country and world’s most populous democracy

• Three decades of socialist controls finally relaxed in late 80’s & 90’s spurring
foreign trade and investment
• Current Prime Minister, Manmohan Singh, credited with the successful
implementation of wide-ranging economic reforms
• Duties on capital-goods imports reduced further in Jan 2004 and Indian companies
now allowed to invest abroad up to their net worth. However, restrictions on capital
outflows still exist
• Real GDP growth forecasted between 6-8% with inflation currently under control
Competitive position in Textiles
+ large domestic market, tradition, skilled employees

+ abundant raw materials (cotton)
- regulation and taxes favor small-scale family workshops
- inflexible labor laws (government approval needed for firing)
- underdeveloped transportation infrastructure (ports)
- production scattered all over India complicating ‘fast’ exports

Raymond - Company Background
• Public company incorporated in India in 1925.

• Revenues for 2003-04 were $300 million with 54% of its revenues
from Raymond Textile.
• Manufactures wool and wool blended fabric. Raymond Textile is
the 3rd largest producer of worsted fabric in the world.
• 60% domestic market share.Demand mainly from customized
tailored garments customer and in-house demand from the
garments division.
• Currently exports 11% of its production. Demand from large
garment manufacturers and retail stores which outsource
fabricating.
• Manufacturing facilities comprise 3 integrated plants located
within India.
• Distribution through 310 exclusive retail stores, 30,000 multi-
brand outlets and 100 wholesale dealers.

Company’s Foreign Expansion Strategy
Why Exports?
Export target of 32% of production by 2007.
• Stagnant domestic market in terms of market size and market share
constraining future growth.
• Lowering of import restrictions in January, 2005 would lead to
increased competition domestically and make exports more
competitive.
Why foreign investment?
• Increasing price competitiveness of products
– Export prices are lower than domestic prices where Raymond
commands a high premium due to its brand recognition.
– Increased competition from China has driven export prices down.
• High operating costs and longer delivery lead times in India
• Develop overseas manufacturing expertise as a long term strategy.
• Diversify operational risk – Currently 100% in India
• Access to ASEAN markets

Valuation – Sensitivity Analysis
• Tax holidays: 0% tax rate for 8 years and 15% for

Value of investment
next 5 years 15% (regular rate is 30%)
incentives
• Raw material import tariff reduced from 30% to 1%
Without incentives project’s NPV = -THB 314 million,
thus the value of incentives is about THB 670 million
($15 mil.)
If effective THB selling price decreases by 5% on

Selling price average throughout project’s lifetime (13 years) its
NPV will fall to THB 0
If effective cost of imported inputs (wool) increases by

Cost of inputs 14.4% throughout projects lifetime, NPV will fall to
THB 0
If Thai Baht effectively appreciates by 7.6% on average

THB exchange rate throughout project’s lifetime, NPV will fall to THB 0
21
Real Options – Identification and Discussion
Type of option Analysis Value
Option to expand / • The company owns additional 20 acres of land High

extend for future capacity expansion within the zone
• Plant’s lifetime can be extended beyond the
projected 13 years with investment upgrades
Growth option • Long term growth strategy of establishing

presence in the Asian markets. Perception of High
“Made in Thailand” better than “Made in India”
due to lower costs and faster delivery time
• Producing outside India increases access to
new markets (e.g. Pakistan) inaccessible
directly due to trade embargos with India
Operating scale / • The company can change utilization of different

production lines (different micron diameter Medium
utilization option features) to meet fluctuations in demand
Output mix option / • Machinery is dedicated to specific micron

product flexibility diameters, only partial product modifications Low
possible, e.g. dying
