Overview of the manufacturing sector
In the year of 2002, the turnover of AS ESTIKO-PLASTAR was 145.8
million EEK (9.32 million EUR), compared to the year of 2001 the
turnover increased by 8.2 million EEK (0.52 million EUR). In the
financial period the loss of the enterprise was 10.4 million EEK
(0.66 million EUR) - the loss is larger by 8.9 million EEK (0.57
million EUR) compared to the previous year being 1.5 million EEK
(0.11 million EUR). Compared to the year of 2001, the amount of the
production totalled by 6%, the amount of the waste decreased by 6%.
The package consumers` demands for the products of higher quality
oblige the company to constantly improve the quality indicators of
the products. During the year 70% of the assortment was improved. The
improvement activities of mainly in the field of food industry
package materials required higher development expenditures than
planned in the budget. Expenses for the development products have
been made in the financial year in the amount of 3 million EEK (0.2
million EUR).
For AS ESTIKO-PLASTAR the year of 2002 was the year of finding new
big clients and getting aquainted with new products and markets. The
export of the enterprise increased by 2,3 million EEK (0.15 million
EUR) up to 24.6 million EEK (1.57 million EUR). In the year of 2002
the turnover per employee was by 0.06 million EEK (0.004 million EUR)
larger than in the year 2002, being 0.62 million EEK (0.04 million
EUR).
In the accounting period the average number of employees in the Group
was 243, salaries were paid in the amount of 26.7 million EEK (1.71
million EUR), the members of the Management Board and Supervisory
Board were not remunerated.
In the 3rd quarter a new management structure was approved, which
guarantees a more efficient product orientation and the redundancy of
the posts with partially overlapping duties. In connection with the
structural changes 34 employees were dismissed in the 2nd half-year.
In comparison with the previous accounting period expenses for
salaries increased by 3.0 million EEK (0.2 million EUR), of which 1.2
million EEK (0.08 million EUR) is connected with the reduction of the
general staff and the rest is connected with the increase of the
manufacturing workers (20 persons added as compared to the beginning
of the year). The aim of the structural changes is the decreasing of
the management costs and the increasing of the efficiency of the
labour force.
Due to the investments made in the year of 2001, in 2002 the
amortisation increased by 3.2 million EEK (0.2 million EUR) compared
to the year of 2001. For the same reason, the financial expenses
increased by 0.9 million EEK (0.06 million EUR).
The procurement of new machinery and equipment and the relevant rise
of costs in the amount of 4.1 million EEK (0.26 million EUR) did not
result in the expected turnover and the accompanying profitability.
In the year 2002, two large projects were launched: - software
Axapta and the quality system ISO, which demanded human resources but
did not bring the direct profit in the year of 2002. By today, the
expenses made for Axapta project are 1.8 million EEK (0.12 million
EUR) and the effect of the project upon the management will manifest
itself in the 2nd half of 2003, when the efficiency of planning and
management data processing would enable the application of more
efficient management methods.
Proceeding from the principle of conservatism and the aim of a fair
reflecting of the inventory, in 2002 the materials staying unused in
the warehouses for the sum of 0.5 million EEK (0.003 million EUR)
and the finished goods for the sum of 0.9 million EEK (0.006 million
EUR) were written off. As allowances for doubtful receivables,
written off was 1.0 million EEK (0.06 million EUR), i.e. 0.6 million
EEK (0.04 million EUR) more than in 2001. The main reason for
declaring the receivables as doubtful was the clients’bankrupcy
(Rapla Dairy, etc.).
