Margin guidance

Category 3
- Anticipated revenue growth of **15%-20% in FY27**, with muted growth due to new facility ramp-up and order intake timing. - Expected **70%-75% growth** in certain divisions like Sukrut this year without losses, scaling up over next two years. - FY28 projected for a steep growth exceeding **50%**, following an "S-shaped" growth curve. - Operating margins likely stable or with slight short-term impacts due to commodity price volatility and geopolitical factors. - Endoks maintains a **32% EBITDA margin** on stable currency terms with fully hedged money. - Consolidated earnings FY26: PAT of INR 185 crores with EPS of INR 15.67, nearly doubling from FY25. - Expected margin stabilization with potential for margin improvement in power electronics, forecast to reach **17% margins** on increased volume. - BESS and PCS segments targeted for significant order growth, potentially expanding orders to **US$80 million**. Overall, Quality Power expects sustained, strong earnings growth supported by broadening product mix, capacity expansion, and market penetration.
