The call featured management, including Mrs. N Brahmani (Executive Director), Dr. M Sambasiva Rao (Whole Time Director), and Mr. Srideep Kesavan (CEO), discussing the company's performance and outlook.
The company reported consolidated revenue growth of 10% year-on-year to INR 11,576 million for Q4 FY26, with full-year revenue reaching INR 45,260 million. EBITDA for the quarter stood at INR 522 million (4.5% margin), and profit after tax was INR 230 million (2.1% margin). Profitability was impacted by unprecedented procurement inflation, despite which the company implemented disciplined pricing actions and operational efficiencies.
Milk procurement saw a 7% year-on-year decline to 16.38 lakh liters per day in Q4 FY26 due to supply constraints, with average procurement prices increasing by 8% year-on-year to INR 46.67 per liter. Conversely, milk sales volumes grew 1% year-on-year to 11.73 lakh liters per day in Q4, with average selling prices improving by 4% to INR 57.80 per liter.
Value-added products (VAP) emerged as a key growth driver, with revenues growing 18% year-on-year in Q4. The contribution of VAP to overall revenues increased to 35.5% from 32.5% in the previous year. New capacities, including a Hyderabad ice-cream facility and a flavored milk plant, are nearing operationalization.
Management expressed cautious optimism for FY27, citing improving milk availability, normalization in commodity dynamics, and the benefits from ongoing capacity expansion. They aim to increase VAP contribution to revenue by 2-2.5% annually and anticipate reaching over 50% VAP revenue contribution within four to five years. The company also discussed its ongoing investment in PBJL Company (Peanut butter and Jelly Private Limited) and its strategic vision to become a leading dairy nutrition company by 2030.
