3. DISCLAIMER The research work is in the 80% completion rate, a few key factors and its outcomes are in the process of testing. With the outcomes of the pilot study this presentation is made. This report contains the partial figures and findings as on date. 3 P. Rajendran - R&D vs Performance in Textiles

4. INTRODUCTION R&D stands for Research and Development. Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) defines it as ‘creative work undertaken on a systematic basis in order to increase the stock of knowledge, including knowledge of man, culture and society, and the use of this stock of knowledge to devise new applications’. R&D has become essential in the corporate world as the requirement for new product design and development has increased with reducing product life cycles. Firms willing to relinquish current profits to enhance future performance by investing in R&D are expected to be more competitive in the long run. Law of Diminishing Marginal Utility, Product Life Cycle and NPD are processed with continuous R&D only. 4 P. Rajendran - R&D vs Performance in Textiles

5. OVERVIEW OF INDIAN TEXTILE INDUSTRY Leading Textile Industries in the world. Next to Agriculture Predominantly unorganized. Largest in the world with 27% Foreign Exchange through Textile Exports Contributes 14% of the total foreign exchange. Contributes around 4% to GDP of the Country. Direct Employment to 3.9 ± 4 million people. Global share 4% to increase 8% to reach US$80b by 2020. 5 P. Rajendran - R&D vs Performance in Textiles

10. RESEARCH PROBLEM 10 P. Rajendran - R&D vs Performance in Textiles Meeting shorter PLC is not possible without R&D. Most of the manufacturing sector invest reasonable portion on their revenue. R&D investment of Revenue-making Textile sector is found negligible. Proposing to study the impact of R&D investment on– – Continuous pattern – Intermittent – Regular Basis.

11. NEED & PURPOSE OF THE STUDY Largest in the world with 27% Foreign Exchange through Textile Exports Contributes 14% of the total foreign exchange. Contributes around 4% to GDP of the Country. Direct Employment to 3.9 ± 4 million people. Global share 4% to increase 8% to reach US$80b by 2020. Poor Technology Low Investment on Research and Development compared to other Sectors. 11 P. Rajendran - R&D vs Performance in Textiles

12. OBJECTIVES 1.To study whether companies invest in R&D on a regular Basis/pattern. 2.To Examine the Trend of R&D and non-R&D Textile Firms. 3.To evaluate the Impact of R&D on the Operating Performance. 4.To analyse the Impact of R&D on the Financial Performance. 5.To arrive necessary/suitable measures and recommendations for the benefit of Textile Sector. 12 P. Rajendran - R&D vs Performance in Textiles

13. HYPOTHESES 1.Firms with no investment on R&D gained increased Growth and Performance. 2.Firms with limited investment on R&D gained increased Growth and Performance. 3.Firms with large investment on R&D gained increased Growth and Performance. 13 P. Rajendran - R&D vs Performance in Textiles

14. RESEARCH DESIGN No. Companies / Textile Units : 21436. No. of Companies with Data on CMIE for the Period: 1995 – 2010. Purposive sampling. Companies invested > Rs. 2500 Lakhs. Segment-wise: Processing to Garmenting. No. of Companies Selected: 1352. – Source: CMIE-Prowess, Ministry of Textiles. 14 P. Rajendran - R&D vs Performance in Textiles

15. TOOLS OF ANALYSIS Descriptive Statistics – Mean, Standard Deviation, Correlation and Regression Tobin’s Q (Chung and Pruitt, 1994, p. 70) – Proposed a simplified formula for approximating Tobin’s Q that requires only publicly available financial and accounting information. – Approximate Q defined as follows can explain at least 96.6% of the variability of Tobin’s Q. Approximate Q = (MVE+PS+DEBT)/TA MVE = product of share price and common stock shares outstanding, PS = liquidating value of outstanding preferred stocks, DEBT = value of the firm’s short-term liabilities net of its short-term assets, plus the book value of the firm’s long-term debt, and TA = total assets of the firm. 15 P. Rajendran - R&D vs Performance in Textiles

16. TOOLS OF ANALYSIS R&D Intensity – ratio of R&D expenditures to the total assets Return on Investment – = Net Profit/Average Total Assets Return on Capital Employed – = EBIT / Average total Capital Employed R&D Efficiency – = patents received/R&D expenses (Rs.) R&D Effectiveness – Grant patents per R&D expenditure (Individual Projects) P. Rajendran - R&D vs Performance in Textiles 16

17. VARIABLES Independent Variable – R&D Investment Dependent Variables – Total Capital – Total Assets – Sales – Total Income – Net Income – Total Expenditures – EPS 17 P. Rajendran - R&D vs Performance in Textiles

18. DATA ANALYSIS* Tobin’s Q value  Mean = 0.896  SD = 0.591  Correlation  R&D / TA = 0.49  R&D/Sales = 0.32  R&D/Net Profit = 0.39 *Partial Analysis 18 P. Rajendran - R&D vs Performance in Textiles

19. FINDINGS The mean R&D investment of the industry is very less (less than 1%) whereas the developing and developed countries spend on R&D is above 5% of the Sales. Correlation, R&D Intensity, R&D Efficiency are found insignificant (i.e) less correlated or negatively correlated. 19 P. Rajendran - R&D vs Performance in Textiles

20. CONCLUSION Despite the industry grows in the positive trend with the negligible R&D Expenditure, the Ministry of Textiles may focus on low-cost superior quality textile products since India is the destination of cheaper cost with superior Quality. The existing firms should plan in the long-run to enjoy the benefit of market opportunity by realizing the nearest competitors China whose R&D of the Textile industry is 5.4% average. 20 P.
