The announcement is a transcript of an earnings call, which provides an update on financial performance and future outlook. While the company discusses growth plans and operational improvements, the tone is largely factual and forward-looking, without strong positive or negative indicators that would significantly sway sentiment.
Ellenbarrie Industrial Gases Limited has released the transcript of its Earnings Conference Call held on May 25, 2026. The call focused on the company's audited financial results for the fourth quarter and the full financial year ended March 31, 2026.
During the call, Chairman and Managing Director Mr. Padam Kumar Agarwala discussed the broader global and Indian economic environment, emphasizing the resilience of India's domestic economy and the growing demand for industrial gases driven by manufacturing and infrastructure growth. He highlighted the evolving end-market narrative, with increasing demand from sectors beyond traditional metals and steel, including pharmaceuticals, chemicals, healthcare, renewable energy, and electronics.
Joint Managing Director Mr. Varun Agarwal provided details on the Q4 and FY26 performance. He noted that despite some operational and one-off factors impacting reported numbers, the core gases business showed sequential growth. A key event in Q4 was the commissioning of the Uluberia 2 merchant plant (220 tons per day) in West Bengal. The company reported that FY26 core gases segment EBITDA margins, adjusted for one-offs, were 38.4%, a 500 basis points increase from FY25. Argon prices recovered in Q4 from Q3 lows, with expectations of further normalization in FY27.
Looking ahead to FY27, the company anticipates stronger revenue contribution from new capacities, including an on-site plant expected to go live in the next month. The Uluberia 2 plant will continue its ramp-up, and new merchant projects are in progress. The company aims for a 20% CAGR revenue growth over the long term and is expanding its merchant capacity to approximately 1,130 tons per day and on-site capacity to around 1,000 tons per day over the next 12 months.
Management clarified that one-off items in Q4 included a provisioning for employee leave encashment (₹11 million), an impairment on a legacy non-core investment, and a one-time settlement with an on-site customer for ₹15 million, related to a commercial debate on a plant's start-up date. The customer remains with the company under a 15-year contract. The project engineering vertical is currently engaged with internal projects and not expected to drive significant external revenue growth in the near term.
Regarding power costs, the company is increasing its use of renewable energy through Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs), noting that PPA pricing is significantly lower (50-60%) than grid pricing. Approximately 18% of current capacity is powered by renewables, with a target to increase this through PPAs for other plants.
