Revenue guidance

Category 3
  • Kings Infra Ventures expects improved growth due to revival in international shrimp markets after two years of suppressed export volumes owing to global issues.
  • The company anticipates recovering lost sales and achieving pre-pandemic sales targets with better pricing and demand.
  • With international competitors like Ecuador shrinking production by 30-40%, Indian exports are gaining advantage.
  • Expansion of export markets includes strengthening relationships in China with new buyers (e.g., Golian) and initiating a U.S. subsidiary in 2025 to overcome prior trade barriers.
  • Domestic shrimp farming innovations (like Maritech Eco Park) aim to increase production efficiency significantly, targeting up to 50 tons per hectare.
  • Companies plan substantial CapEx to scale operations (processing facilities, farm expansion) funded mainly through internal accruals.
  • Export contributes about 30% of revenue, with growing volumes expected as new international market engagements mature.

Margin guidance

Category 3
  • Kings Infra Ventures expects to maintain EBITDA margins around 20%.
  • Turnover growth depends on international market conditions; they aim to recover lost ground from the past two years of market distress.
  • With the revival of markets and improved pricing, they anticipate achieving predicted growth figures in the next 3 to 5 years.
  • They are targeting INR 500 crore to INR 1,000 crore turnover within 3 to 5 years.
  • Improved shrimp prices and better export markets (Europe and U.S.) are factors expected to aid growth.
  • Enhanced production efficiencies, including increasing shrimp production from 5 tons/ha to 50 tons/ha at Maritech Eco Park, will contribute positively.
  • Expansion and CapEx plans (aquaculture development, processing facilities, Maritech Park) underpin forthcoming growth.
  • Faster crop cycles (three crops per year vs. two) will improve output and profitability.
