Said on the call
“We are basically talking about the sustainability of this growth which we see in Q1... it's like multiple engines firing in terms of product, in terms of market.”
From the Q&A
| Topic | What management said |
|---|---|
| EEI Growth Sustainability | Management attributes strong 34% EEI growth to multiple factors: increased current transformer business (driven by data centers and solar), product diversification, energy grid upgrades in Germany, and rapid growth in the U.S. market; confirms it is sustainable and reiterates full-year guidance of ~20% top-line growth. |
| U.S. Market Expansion | Target is to reach INR 100 crores revenue in the U.S. in 2-3 years organically, supported by adding products with UL/ANSI certification and sales resources; also actively evaluating inorganic opportunities in the INR 50-200 crore range. |
| Lumel Alucast Recovery Path | The revenue decline is planned; a strong pipeline of RFQs is in advanced commercial negotiations. Expects to breakeven on adjusted EBITDA by end-FY27 and sees a clear pathway to double-digit EBITDA margins over the medium term as capacity fills. |
| Solar Inverter Business | The single-phase iUNO series has received encouraging market acceptance, achieving operational profitability. The 3-phase iNEO series up to 12kW was launched, with a next-gen range up to 50kW and hybrid inverters under development. The business is expected to grow significantly, with a target of INR 24-25 crores this year. |
| European Market Performance | Lumel S.A. grew 39% YoY despite a subdued European industrial environment, driven by multiple revenue streams including radiation gates, medium-voltage products, and ongoing energy grid upgrade projects in Germany, which constitute a significant part of sales. |
Guidance
- Expect EEI business to deliver around 20% top-line growth and 20-22% EBITDA margin for the full year.
- Aim for Lumel Alucast to breakeven on adjusted EBITDA by the end of FY27.
- Target to scale U.S. business to INR 100 crores revenue in 2-3 years.
- Plan to launch next-generation solar inverter range up to 50kW and hybrid inverter solutions by end-FY27.
