The market read

The company reported strong year-on-year growth in revenue, profit, and margins, driven by key segments like battery chemicals and semiconductor chemicals, and also received positive certifications.

Acutaas Chemicals Limited (formerly Ami Organics Limited) has reported a strong Q1 FY27 performance, with revenue soaring by 59.1% year-on-year to ₹329.7 crore. This growth was primarily fueled by robust demand in their CDMO and NCE products, and significant traction in specialty chemicals, particularly battery chemicals and semiconductor chemicals.

The company announced the successful completion of its battery chemicals plant trial run and has commenced commercial supply, anticipating a rapid ramp-up due to unprecedented demand. The semiconductor chemicals segment is also witnessing strong growth, driven by increasing AI adoption boosting CPU and memory chip demand.

Acutaas Chemicals achieved a revenue of ₹292.7 crore from its Advanced Pharmaceutical Intermediates segment, a 76.5% year-on-year increase. The Specialty Chemicals segment generated ₹37 crore, despite a 10.6% year-on-year decline, as the company strategically phases out commodity chemicals to focus on higher-margin products.

Financially, gross profit increased by 73% to ₹190.9 crore, with gross margins expanding by 466 basis points to 57.9%. EBITDA more than doubled to ₹113.1 crore, with EBITDA margins at 34.3%. Profit After Tax (PAT) grew by 70.4% to ₹74.9 crore, with PAT margins at 22.7%.

Capital expenditure for Q1 FY27 stood at ₹56 crore, with ₹15 crore allocated to the Indichem site and ₹41 crore to the ACL site, primarily for the battery chemicals project and a pilot plant. The company also received 'Great Place to Work' and 'Responsible Care' certifications.

The Indichem plant for semiconductor chemicals is progressing ahead of schedule, with capex expected to be completed by the end of the current quarter, and revenue generation anticipated from the next financial year. The company reiterated its full-year revenue growth guidance of 25% with stable margins.
