Olam plans to increase its rice-milling capacity at least 5x to tap rising domestic demand in India. Olam will raise capacity to 400,000 tonnes in 3 years, from a current capacity of between 60,000 tonnes and 80,000 tonnes, CEO Sunny Verghese said in an interview.
Milling removes husks from rice. Rice prices reached a record last month on concern global supplies couldn't meet demand. India may boost production to a record as farmers plant more of the crop, an exporters' group said 19/5.
"We want to participate in India as they prioritise procurement," Mr Verghese said. "Next year we want to participate in the domestic trade and in the next 3 years, growth will be considerable." Olam can command a price premium in rice trading as a 'reliable' supplier at a time export curbs by countries including Vietnam, India and Egypt are expected to reduce global trade by 14% this year to 27m tonnes, Mr Verghese said.

DBS Group Research, May 16
EXCELLENT execution continues: Q3 2008 earnings were slightly above expectations, rising by 39 per cent y-o-y to $56 million on revenue growth of 52 per cent y-o-y to $2.4 billion. For 9M 2008, Olam's bottom line rose by 31 per cent y-o-y to $103 million, as the top line expanded by 26 per cent y-o-y to $3.8 billion. The robust performance was led by broad-based growth that saw both volumes and net contribution per ton increase across all segments (excluding Queensland Cotton's results) on a y-o-y basis.
Looking ahead, this set of results not only reinforces our belief in the group's well-proven organic growth model, but also gives us increasing confidence in the management's ability to integrate acquisitions to further boost earnings growth. With Queensland Cotton likely to post a strong turnaround in FY2009 and with greater contribution from other acquisitions as well, Olam can look forward to even stronger growth ahead. We have raised our FY2008 earnings numbers by 6 per cent, kept our FY2009 numbers, and introduced FY2010 forecasts.
Olam continues to execute well on its expansion strategy and deliver on earnings growth. We reiterate our 'buy' call and our target price of $3.80, which is based on 30 times FY2009 PE, predicated on one time price earnings to growth. We are forecasting 31 per cent EPS compounded annual growth rate for Olam over FY2007-2010.
BUY (BT)
wow.....u bought at $3.85!!!! a dollar away from the current price......really hope this olam goes far
if really dip further down...will be glad to collect it again especially around $2.64
Olam is holding firm. Bought at $3.85 to hold for anticipated good results. With rising commonity prices, this counter can keep for the medium term.
