Margin guidance

Category 3
  • The company expects FY26 feed margins to stabilize around 9-10%, slightly lower than historical levels due to rising raw material costs (fish meal, soya, wheat).
  • Feed sales volume guidance for FY26 is around 575,000 metric tons, indicating steady demand with seasonality effects.
  • Shrimp processing division anticipates exports of about 17,000 MT in FY26 with growth driven by volume, better price realization, and foreign exchange gains.
  • EBIT improvement is partly supported by other income from investments and forex gains, though the sustainability of this is uncertain.
  • Challenges from reciprocal US tariffs remain but are expected to ease with ongoing trade negotiations, supporting export stability.
  • Long-term growth is supported by diversification into value-added products, domestic market promotion, and pet food segment expansion expected post FY27 manufacturing start.
  • Overall, FY26 profitability growth is expected but may be modest due to input cost pressures and market uncertainties.
