revenue

Future growth expectations in sales/revenue/volumes?

- Core product (steam turbines) will remain the mainstay in the medium term, with focus shifting towards application-centric solutions like energy storage to expand the customer base. - Short term view: Triveni Turbine operates as a single product company; medium term, it will evolve into a multi-product company aligned with technical capabilities. - Order booking growth is projected for the current financial year; Q4 expected to have record turnover and profitability. - Growth will be "lumpy" due to the nature of larger turbine projects and expansion into new geographies; steady growth anticipated over the next 2–3 years. - U.S. subsidiary expected to break even by FY 2027 and become a significant growth platform from FY 2028 onwards, targeting ₹200-300 crores revenue. - Domestic markets (steel, cement, sugar, pharma, chemicals) show robust inquiry pipelines supporting double-digit growth in Q4 and FY 2027. - Export markets offer larger growth opportunities with plans to increase penetration and regional presence once U.S. market stabilizes.

margin

Future growth expectations in earnings/operating earnings/profits/EPS?

- FY 2026: Projected double-digit top-line growth; margins may be slightly impacted due to NTPC project and one-time write-off. - Order booking for FY 2026 affected by slower quarters Q1 and Q2; Q3 saw recovery with highest-ever revenue and EBITDA. - FY 2027: Expected growth commensurate with or slightly higher than FY 2026, driven by strong order book entering the year. - FY 2028 onwards: Anticipated reversion to normalized higher growth rates similar to pre-FY 2025 levels. - Earnings: Margins expected above 20% (PBT basis) consistently; minor quarter-to-quarter fluctuations possible. - U.S. subsidiary expected to break even by FY 2027, providing growth platform for subsequent years. - Longer gestation in converting enquiry pipeline to orders due to new geographies and technologies, but confidence remains high for sustaining growth.

orderbook

Current/ Expected Orderbook/ Pending Orders?

- The order book quality is similar to two years ago; enquiry pipeline is growing, indicating increased traction and demand awareness for Triveni products. - Enquiries include budgetary in nature, taking longer to convert into orders. - Growth expected to be steady, with lumpiness in order booking and revenue due to newer market segments and larger turbine orders. - FY '26 expected to see order booking growth over FY '25, with a double-digit top-line growth forecast. - Large pipeline exists in the U.S. (multi-hundred million dollars of enquiries), but order finalization is delayed due to tariffs and geopolitical issues. - U.S. tariff reduction will aid quicker order finalizations and better returns. - Domestic market enquiries strong, contributing equally across steel, cement, sugar, pharma, and chemicals. - The export market shows some dip but expects recovery; newer applications in places like geothermal show good traction. - FY '27 seen as a year of normalized growth, returning to pre-pandemic trajectories by FY '28.
